EMIGRANTs TO THE UNITED STATES

EMlGRANTS TO THE UNITED STATES.
The public are aware that great complaints have
been made respecting the character Of the Germans
who have emgraled to the United States. The ma
tive Americans" have attempted to Justify their
harsh system OF persecution towards foreigners, by
asserting that criminals, paupers, the sweepings of
ails-men utterly unfit to mngle with the respecta-
BILE portion of our countrymen--are empted upon
our shores Under these circumstances, the follow
ing regulation of the Senate Of Bremen will produce
an excellent effect 1t was adopted on the 2sth
May, and was received at this Office by the last
steamer which arrived at Boston.
1t will assist to seal the lips Of the Native Amer-
leans with regard to the character Of all future Ger
man emgrants from Bremen. She has adopted the
regulation to guard against this alleged evil. We
trust that Congress, at its next session, will appeal
to other States and powers to follow her noble ex-
ample.
We are indebted for this police regulation to our
late consul at Bremen, A. Dudley Mann, esq.,
whose vigilance in the discharge of his duty seems
never to have sumbered. 1t was his intention to
resign the consulate, before he heard from the Uni
ted States; and he expects to return by the Great
Ditohi, VII hSi hIbt uip-tHc Sttn Vi July. II IL
hoped that his talents will not be lost to his coun-
try, after he arrives.
