Another Departure of Mormons for Utah. The latest English papers announce the departure of another party of Mormons, comprising several families — in all fifty-two men, women and children — under the care of Elders Austin and Winne, for the Salt Lake settlement. This additional number of perverts to the doctrine of ‘"Joe Smith"’ were chiefly from the agricultural districts of Hertfordshire, whence a large emigration has lately taken place, the greater proportion being young people varying from sixteen to twenty-five years of age, although among the number were several infirm old men and women accompanying their families.
