THE MINNESOTA .
SATURDAY MORNING, SEPTEMBER 1854
The Moving Masses.

We copy to-day an article Of some length
from the National Era upon the future result Of
emigration in the United States. Although
many of US may not agree with all the conclu-.
lions arrived at by the writer, yet the facts he
presents are full of thought and worthy the as-
teution Of the statesman, the politician apd the
Intelligent citizen. The writer's of the Nation
al Era-thc l,ading anti-slavery journal OF the
rnion-may often look at the great leading
subject discussed in their paper with strong
prejudice on one side of the question, and con-
sequently at many times attempt to enforce
opinions and conclusions not justified by the
facts submitted as basis but in the present
instance we aIe compelled to say they have not
gone as wide of the mark as they generally do.
They appear to be approaching the great prac-
teal ground, that slavery cannot be iegisiated
out of the Slave States until the people of those
States are ready to so legislate. Whenever
this doctrine becomes general throughout the
Union, We will not long after suffer from the
controlling influences of the evil in our nation
q. councils.
The writer in question, however, is mistaken
widely in supposing there is any part of Min
:iesota that will not be thickly settled.
