OFFICIAL STATEMENT OF THE MORMON HISTORIAN. Geo. A, Smith, Historian of the Church, has published a long account m the News, We extract the following:— The Church has about 95 missionaries from Utah in ‘urope, and an equal number in Asia, Africa, and the c Isles, besides large numbers of native Eiders in the different fields of Jabor, and a considerable number of the saints are scattered throughout the United States and the British provinces, The Deseret News, edited by Elder Albert Carrington, is published ia City, and issues 4,000 copies weekly, A weekly newspaper is published in St. Lous, Mo., by Elder Erastue Snow; anotuer in the city of New York, by Eider John Taylor. A periodical i ublished in Liverpool, England, edited by Elder I. D. Richards, and has issued 22,000 copies weekly. A weekly perodical is published in Swansex, South Wales, called the Udgorn Seion, iu the Welsh language, by Elder Dan Jones. ‘A perindical, called the Scandinaviens Stierne, is also published in the Danish language, at Copeatiagen, Den- mark. A periodical has been publisbed in Switzer land in the French language, edited by Elder T. B. H. Stenbouse. The Book of Mormon has been translated and published in the Welsh, Danish, French, German and Italian languages. The work has made considerable progress in Sweden and Norway, the governments haviag made their utmost exertions to preventit. The progress has been slow in France, Germany and Italy, owing prin cipally to governmental proscription. Tn Venmark and Switzerland the progress has becn much better. In the Sandwich Telandy considerable pra- gress has been made, some 5,000 persons having received Laptism. ‘the Book of Mormon has been translated iato the Hawaiian language, and a printing establishment bas been secured for the publication of the Book of Mormon and a periodical there. The missionaries on the Society Islands met with good sucevss until the French government, with sword in hand, adopted the exterminating policy of the mobs in the United States. Missimasies have established many branches anda periodical in Australia; branches have been established in South Africa, Gibraltar, Malta, and also in the allied army and navy in the Crimea; several branches have been established in India, ani a monthly paper published at Madras; but owing to the great ignorance and degra- dation of the people, our missionaries have met with bat vory limited success. About 1,060 saints have emigrated from Denmark to 'y, anda similer emigration is expected this The number ef Church inembers is unknown, m the best estimates that we can gain, they are over 480,000. A Company bas been incorporated to assist the ummi- grating saints to this place, from the couatries first, where they are the most oppressed. It is termed “the Perpetual Kmigenting Fund Company” and has a capi'al of $250,000 and ix conducted on each principles ay to be ntinually increasing, and extends assistance to emi- to ve ve-paid after they grating saints in the iumn ot low settle here.
