Correspondence

New York, Feb. 12, 1870.

Elder Carrington.

Dear Brother,-Elder H. S. Eldridge is in this city, on business for a few days. He will go to Washington and then return to Utah. Some of the Elders have returned home, and many are expecting to go, so as to be there by April Conference.

There is some excitement in the country in regard to the Mormons and the measures now pending before Congress concerning them. This winter has been the most open of any within the recollection cf the oldest inhabitant, and still continues. Brother Hooper is hard at work for our interest in the national capital.

Kind regards to all the brethren laboring with you, and prayers for your welfare. I remain your brother in the Gospel,

R. T. BURTON.
