A short article notes that 1,200 Mormon immigrants arrived in New York in the previous week, with an additional 2,000 in transit. This article is in response to a "morning journal" and its coverage of their arrival and claim that these immigrants are to work on "the Pacific railroad, Brigham Young ... having taken a contract to build a section of the road."
