The fallowing is extracted frost the third volume or Memoirs of Me Life and Writings of Dr. &wok lips, lately published : INFORMATION TO THOSE WHO WOULD REMOVE TO AMERICA. LITTIR TO I. VAUGHAN ' S-Q. JOLT QC 1754. Many persons in Earns), having directly. or by letter,. expressed to the writer of this, who is well acquainted with North America. the ir: desire of transporting sad astablidang themselves in that country. but who appear to him to have formed. through ignorance. mistaken ideas and expedatious of what is to be obtained there ; he thinks it may be useful. and prevent inconvenient. expensive. and fruitless removals and voyages of improper persons. if he gives snore clearer attd truer notions of that part of the world then appear to have hitherto pre. veiled. Ile finds it is imagined by members that the in habitants of North America are rich. capable of rewarding. mod disposed to reward all sorts of inge nuity ; that they are, at the same time. ignorant of all the sciences, and consequently that strangers possessing talent iu the Belles Lewes. doe arts. &c. must be highly esteemed. arid so well pail, as to become easily rich themselves; that there are also abundance of profitable offices to be disposed of. which the natives are not qualified to dal; and that having few persons of fausily among them, strangers of birth must be greatly re►pected, and of course easily obtain the best of those offices which will make all their fortunes; that the go. vernmeuts, too, to encourage emigrations from Europe ; not only pay the expense of personal transportation, but give lauds gratis to strangers with negroes to work for them. utensils of husban dry. and stocks of cattle. These are all wild ima ginations; and those whop go to America with ex pectations fouuded on them, will surely Slud them selves disappointed. The truth is, that though there are in that coun try few people so miserable as the poor of Europe, there are also very few that in Europe woul►l be called rich ; it is rather • general happy ineiliocri ty that prevails. There are few great proprieteks of the soil and few tenants ; most people cultivate their own lands, or follow some ha►►dicraft, or mer chandise; very few rich enough to live idly upon their rents or incomes, or to pay the high prices given in Europe for paintings. statues, and the other works of art. that are more curious that, use• fol. Hence the natural geniu►es dolt have arisen iu America with such talents lave universally qiiit. ted that country for Europe, where they can be more suitably rewarded. It is true that letters and mathematical know ledge are in esteem there, but they life et the same time more common than is apprehended ; there be ing already existing tune colleges or universities. vii. four u► New Eloglaird. and one in each of the provinces of New York. New Jersey. I'eonylva• Ma. Maryland, and Virginia, all furnished with learned professors; besides a number of smaller academies. These educate many of thei► path in the lan gusges, and those sciences that qualify oleo for the professions of divinity, law, or physic. Strangers are indeed by no means excluded from exercising those profession•. and the quick increase of itihabi twits every a here gives then' chance of employ, which they have in common with the natives. Or civil ofbce• or employments there are few ; is° superfluous ones as in Europe; and it is • rule established in some of the States, that un of fice should be ►o profitable as to snake it desirable. The J6th article of the cusistitutiois of I rani• runs expressly in these words : 4 ` As every freeinau tu preserve his independence (if he has Hui a sufficient estate), ought to have some prairasion, gallium, trade, or farm, whereby 11a cosy honestly subsist, there can Mau necessity fur. nor use in esiahliebiug utlices of profit; the usual effects of which are, depeudance and servility %%abet-outing Ureters, in the poasessurs sad expect tuts ; faction, couteution, corruption, sod disorder, ainoug the peupk. Wherefore, wherever au office, through in crease of fete or otherwise, het:inure su profitahle as to or. easiwa waxily tu apply for it, the profits ought to be lessened by the Legislature" These ideas prevailing more or less in all the United States, it cannot be worth any man's while, who has the mosak of living at home, to espetri...o himself in hopes of obtaining a profitable civil office in America. Much less is it advisable fur a person to go there. who has no oilier quality to recommend him but his birth. Ito Europe, indeed, it has its value; but it is a commodity that cannot be earned to a atone market thou that of America, where people do not inquire concerning • stranger. who is he? bat. what can he do If he has any useful art lie is welcome, and if he exercises it and behaves ,well, he will he respected by all that know him ; but a were man of quality, who, upon that account, wauts to live upon the public by some office or salary, will be despised and disregarded.
