There is mistake in the above statement, which
deserves to be corrected. Tho decree, which is
probably referred to in the above article, not
passed by the Senate of Bremen in January 1885, but
in May, ls45. There has been consequently no time
certainly TO test the operations of the actmuch less
to affect the importation Of passengers into Balti-
more in l843. We received copy Of this decree
from Bremen, in manuscript soon after it was
passed, and it was Immediately published in the
"Unon." 1t was one of the last services which
our late consul, Mr.. Mann, rendered to his country
at Bremen He stated to the members of the SEN
ate how important it was to the United States to
and it was his nerposition which induced the Sem
ate Of Bremen to pass the decree in question, cs-
tablishing new guards and guarantees against the
Introduction Of an exceptonable population from
that country. The late consul did more. Aware OF
the value of sound German population in contrib
uting to settle our extensive and vacant lands,
and DESTROYS as he to invite them to shores
anxious, indeed, TO mpart 10 all the Germans an
accurate knowledge of our free and peculiar nstitu-
tons, he wrote an elaborate account Of the United
States, and of each State, which was translated and
published in the German language. This volume
was so much approved by the merchants Of Bremen,
that they procured large number of copies for
general distribution. II was quoted with great
respect work of authority in the "Burghers'
Convent" of the republic. We have seen extracts
from this book; they show the general politics Of
the author to be those Of State-rghs republican,
devoted to the Union of our country, according to
the principles Of the Jeffersonian school.
