that would be expected at this period Of time. There
is also manifest correspondence between the condi-

FOREIGN MISUNDERSTANDING the last five years,
the emigration to tins country has regularly increased
nearly so. BY statement recently published, we
find in 1882, the passengers landing at this port AZ
be9-in ls33 4l752-n 1884, 4s, Hin 1885, IS, 303
in 1886, 60,54l. These facts may be considered a
fair representation sfthe whole country.
II is evident from these data, that during the last
year, foreign emigration has greatly increased yet ii
is not so large as appears to be. The number of
passengers passing from Europe TO America and from
America to Europe pleasure and business, has in
creased amazingly during the las, year The regular
packet lines increasing every year, besides numer
Gus other lines that engaged in the transport Of
passengers at cheap rates.
II alse appears that beginning with the last year,
new impulse has begun in European emigration 10
this country. The extraordinary developements Of
the state of society," business cheap land &c. in the
United States, which the Presidents Messages and
other documents make 10 all Europe serve &c
many advertisements TO the crowded population Of
The old world and induce them to pack up their beds
and cross the ocean, This movement is facilitated by
the establishment Of cheap packet lines to every port
but especially TO New York.
Beginning with this year we expect an importation
of 100 900 passengers at this port for 1887. See if il
does not reach that number by 1893. There is plenty
OF room in the great West for all who may come.
