In Europe there were 36,000, of which 32,900 were in Great Britain and Ireland, 5,000 in Scandinavia, 2,000 in Germany, Switzerland and France, and the rest of Europe 1,000; in Australia and Polynesia 2,400; in Africa 100; and on travel 2,800. To these, if we add the different branches, including Sarengities, Rigdonites and Whitcites, the whole sect was not less than 126,000. In 1857 there appears to have been a decrease in the population of Utah, the number being only 31,622, of which 9,000 were children, about 11,000 women, and 11,000 men capable of bearing arms. There are 2,388 men with eight or more wives; of these, 13 have more than nine wives, 730 men with five wives, 1,100 with four wives, and 2,508 with more than one wife. Recapitulation--4,617 men with about 16,500 wives.

Mr. Memminger states that a bill will pass making a few reductions upon his tariff.
