The United States have only arrived at
the high degree of prosperity OF which they
are so proud by means of European cmi-
grafton. If tho English provinces, which
less than century ago proclaimed their
Independence, had taken the jealous mca-
sures destined to prevent The establishment
on their sell Of European emigranis; if in
word Washington, Franklin, Jefferson,
Adams, &c, had been know noihings, the
American federation would never have ar
rived at being one Of the great civil
lied powers Of the world and at The present
time it would be as much as il could do to
keep an even march will Brazil, the Ar
gentne confederation, of the Mexican rrc-
public. 1t is because the American Union
has been liberal, intelligent, sympathetic to
all, contributing a,large share to human Ii
bcrty and TO the individual initiative that it
has become great and powerful. Let it

MOVEMENTS OF POPULATION. The st.
Louis Republican congratuates the citi.
.z,ns of Missouri, in view OF the fact, that
tn, mighty tide of population, which or the
past few years had been sweeping toward
California, is beginning to flow in a coll
trary direction. Says the Republican, we
find that emigrants to Western Missouri
and Kanzas and Nebraska 'are coming as
/ n the days of the Platte Purchase fifteen
year, ago."
At the same time the growth of tho
State and Territories in the Northwest was
never more rapid than at present. Mime
sofa, Wisconsin and Iowa have vastly in
creased their population and productive ca
paciy, and are already teeming with farms,
schools, churches and cities. The Illinois

roads, in Illinois, of themselves open up

found. out his mistake, however, after swal-
lowing couple ofquarts of lhs waters of
that deeciable "institution," and measur-
ing wjth his corporosity a couple Of faith
oms Of water. A vigorous use of his
hands and feet enabled him to keep his head
above water, and an equally vigorous use
OF his lungs brough, to his rescue a most
timely assistance. lie is moreover Of the
belief, and has the frankncss 10 express it
that had such assistance arrived a few
moments later, he would have been spared
the trouble of inditing this pregnant item,
and society would have been deprived Of a
valuable member. His private opinion Is,
that although the canal is an excellent pub
lie concern, the species of practical "coast
survey" in which he indulged, is rather
risky, as well as uncomfortable. There is
such thing as carrying the hydropathic
treatment TO extremes.

acknowledgements 10 that ladder up which
he walked out OF his unwelcomc bath. lie
moreover signifies his intention "at an car
