EItIIGRAZ
Sunday se'nnight, sailed from Coerce
brig, of Newcastle, CLAtax. master, for I
ins on board 80 emigrants from the Isle
other parts of England, destined to the
ries and Indiana, excited thereto by the seductive de-
scriptions of Mr; Moand BIREBECI4, late of Wan.
brough-farm, in Surrey. Among them were Mr.
JOHN Pirrts, farmer and brewer, of Newport, with
a wife and family of 11 sons and daughters; Mr.
Jolts: Woons, farmer, of Whitley, in Surrey, the fries
and neighbour of Mr. MORRISBIRLIICK, when taloa
of Lord ONSLOW. Mr. Wow* takes with him a wife,
(tbrmerly Mr. BIREBECR'S house-keeper,) five sons,.
and two daughters. Mr. THOMAS PEARCE, farmer,
of Westbourne, in Wiltshire. These passengers Ban
embarked some property, also various implements. of
husbandry, with pick-axes, saws, hatchets, &e. and
several waggons, carts, and horses, Whitt are to
draw thern_to the delightful abodes of Indiana oa'
their arrival at Baltimore. The remainder is &idly
composed of labourers, smiths, carpenters, &c.
Mr. BIRERECE, it is understood, has contracted
.
with the United States' Government for a township
in the Illinois of 86 square miles, to be paid for by
instalments within 23 years, subject to a special cove-
rant—that if, at the end of that period, the township
1,2 not peopled by a given number of persons, the town-
sili.l) is to revert to the United States.
Mr. ,BIEESZCK. in one of his letters published last
year from the Illinois, after pourtraying the sublimity
of bii *nods and the eochanting picturesque fertility
and scenery of the prairies. which foam the fore-
grounds tri bqs settlement, says—" We arc, however,
at present lining in a log beuse of my own construc-
tion ; and though we have been obliged to clay up
the crevices to exclude the cold chilling. winds,
neither myself nor daughters (both of whom have been
educated in a genteel waj in England) have uttered
one sigh or regret, at leaving a country borne down
by the weight of Vales."
A gala surplus population exists, no doubt, in the
United Kingdom, but we wish we could see the drain
of it diverted to other channels rather than the Illinois,
where we' inspect disappointment and despair will
but too soon succeed the delusion that now acts on
the mints uteo many of our dissatisfied countrymen.
