The Kansas herald of freedom., 1854-10-21

i less price than that paid by Individuals
; We recommend that emigrants receive th
full advantage of this diminution of pric'
aud that they he forwarded in compsnie
! of two hundred, as they apply, at thes
f reduced rates of travel.
4 End. Ii is recommended that at sue
points as the Trustees select for places {
settlement, they shall at once constEaC
a boarding honse or receiving house.
which three hundred persons may receiy
temporary accommodation on their arriya
and that the number of such houses b
!. enlarged as necessity may dictate. Th
new eomers or their families may thus b
provided for in the necessary interval whic
elapses while they are making their selec
ton of location.
Sd. Il Is recommended that the Trus
tees procure and send forward steam say
mills, grist mills, and such other machine
as shall be of constant service in ner
settlement-Whiehc cannot however be pun
chased or carried out conveniently by in
diyiduai settlers. These machines ma,
be leased or run by the Company's agents
At the same time it it desirable that
printing press be sent out, and weekl1
newspaper established. This would b
the organ of the Company's agents.
Would>extend information regarding it
settlement, and be from the very first, al
index of that love of freedom and ofgooc
morals, which it is to be hoped may char
acterize the State now to be formed
4th. 1t is recommended that the Com
pany's agents locate, and take up for th,
Company's benefit the sections of land
in which the boarding houses and mill
are located-and no others. And further
that whenever the territory shall be OF
ganize,l as free State, the trustees shall
dispose of all its interests there, replace BY
the sales the money laid out declare div
idend to the stockholders,-and
5th That they select new field, aud
make similar arrangements for the settle
ment and organization of another free
State of this Union.
/ With the advantages attained by such
system of effort. the Territory selected
as the scene Of operations, would, it is be-
lieyed, at once till up with free inhabit-
ants. There is reason 10 suppose that sew
eral thousand men OF New England orr
gin, propose ia immigrate under the al-
spices of some such arrangement this very
summer OF the whole emigration from
Europe amounting to some 100000
persons, there can be no difficulty in in
ducing thirty or forty thousand to take
the same direction. Applications from
German agents have already been made
10 members of the Company. We have
also intiinations in correspondence from
the free States of the West, OF a wide
spread desire among those who know what
it II Ia settle new country to pass on, if
such ;tn organization can be made into
that now thrown open. An emigrant
party of those intending TO go, has been
formed in Worcester county, and Others
IN other States.
In view of the establishment by such
agencies Of aew Free State in that mag
nificent region, il is unnecessary to dwell
| in detail on the advantages which this
| enterprise holds out 10 the country at
large.
Ii determines in the right way the in
stitutions of the unsettled Territories, in
less time than the discussion of them ha>
required in Congress 1t opens to those
who are in want in the Eastern States, a
home aud competence, without the SUI
fering hitherto incident to emigration
For the company is the pioneer-and
proyides before the settler arrives, the
convenience which he first requires.
Such removal of All overcrowded pop
ulation is one of the greatest advantage
to Eastern cities. Again, the enterprise
opens commercial advantages to the COM
mereial States, just in proportion to the
population which it creates, of free men
who furnish a market to our manufactures
and imports. Whether the new line OF
States shall be Free or Slave States, is a
question deeply interesting to those who
are to provide the manufactures for their
consumption. Especially will it prove an
advantage to Massachusetts,, if she create
the new State by her foresight-supply
the first necessities to its inhabitants-
and open, in the outset, communication
between their homes and her ports and
factories.
In return for these advantages, which
the Company's rapid and simple effort af-
fords TO the emigrant and TO the country,
its Stockholders receive that satisfaction,
ranked by Lord Bacon among the very
highest, of becoming the founders of
States and more than this-States which
are prosperous and free. They secure
satisfaction by an investment which prom
ises large returns at no distant day.
Under the plan proposed, it will be but
two or three years before the Company
can dispose of its property in the Terrific
ry first occupied-and reimburse itself of
its first expenses AT that time-in a
State of 10000 inhabitants, it viii pos
sess several reservations of $40 acres each
ON which its boarding houses and mills
stand-and the churches and school houses
which it has rendered necessary. From
these centers will the settlements of the
State have radiated. In other words,
these points will then be large CONNER
cial positions of the new State. If there
were only one such-iis value, after the
region should he so far peopled, would
make very large dividend to the compa-
ny which sold If, besides restoring its orig
inal capital, with which 20 enable it to at
tempt the same adventure elsewhere.
Ii is to be remembered that all accounts
agree that the region Of Kansas is the
most desirable part Of America now open
to emigrants 1t is accessible in seven
days continuous travel from Boston. Its
crops are very bountiful-its soil being
well adapted to the staples Of Virginia
