Irfsh Emigrntion.

Ii must be apparent ~ anybody, VINO VIII give
the subject an instants reflection, that the vast
immigration from Ireland TO this country is some
how very badly managed. 1t lacks order and
organization. Individuals and families arrive here
without any special plan or destination. They
do not know precisely where they are going, nor
what they are going to do. A thousand may come
| at once from the same neighborhood but there is
no combination among them, no point OF union
and the advantages which they might derive from
acting to some extent together, are lost Each
man spends wha. money be has in hanging about
the cities, or often is pundered OF It by sharPers
and then goes to work on the railroads or canals
merely to live from day to day. How much better
it woald be fthey could be coonized upon the land
each family having its own farm where its present
labor would not only provide for its present sup
port, but make Improvements which would in
crease its comfort and independence hereafter.
Such plan Of colonization eau only be carried
out by man in whom the people justly have con
fdence, whose only interest is their interest, and
with respect to whom the slightest suspicion OF
land speculation is out OF the question.

colony and bring it on, and see to its establish

chance of getting good farm at low price, and
