SYSTEMATIC Emigration.

Some time ago we spoke interference t" the advantage
of systen,atized emigration, and advocated it as a pubic
work, by which the West would be the gamer. There
have been efforts made, heretofore, to carry out various
plans, by which emigration would be promoted fro" the
old country there have also been colonies transplante'i
from the old to the new world, whore agents have gone
ont and prepared everything for their direct transporta'
ton. Sometimes these communities have been religious,
sometimes political, and in two or three instances a pure
~ social experiment So far as we have ever learned,
an, with the exception Of the latter, have reaped great
benefit from having combined arrangements. But the
great body of emigration has never, until lately received
any attention, to lessen their difficulties and expenses

LEIGH HuNr.-The occasion which called forth the
following lines was this Leigh Hunt had brought
some good tidings to Carlyle, which so delighted Mrs.
Carlyle, who was in the room that she sprang up from
the chair and kissed the newsman." Leigh, who is
as courtly a gallant as John Hope himself, sent her two
bottles of appleja the next morning, with these
verses
Jenny kissed me when we met,
Springing from the chair she sat in,
Time, you thief who love to get
Sweets into your book, put that in;
Say I'm ugly-say I'm sad
Say that health and wealth have missed me
Say Pm growing old-but add,

The Ea r~tslernW0re Trade OF the UMtted
States.

A banquet was lately given at the La Pierre House,
Philadelphia, by the earthenware dealers Of that city, to
their brethren Of other cities. Mr.. Hacker, President
of the Philadelphia Earthenware Board of Trade, in his
remarks, gave the following statistics:
The earthenware trade of the United States, although
limited in amount when compared with other depart
ments of trade and commerce, is yet of vast Importance
to the interests of the country. 1t gives the reward of
labor to some thousands in the potteries Of Staffordshire,
England. Its bulk is so great in comparison with the
value Of the article, that it gives employment to large
numbers of the laboring classes in this country, in the
departments of packing, storing, ~draying, &C., and it is
of vital importance to the shipping interests of the world;
for the groundwork of almost every ship chartered in
Liverpool for this country and for other distant places IS
crates of earthenware and china.
sThe number of packages of earthenware shipped
from Liverpool to the United States for the past six
wears averages abon. 100, 200 crates per annum the en-
tire shi pmeHts from Liverpool to all parts of the world
tsersEs ap receive e, more th pu1 on cha of Of all 6 gne a. states
that is exported.
THE bulk of no. 900 crates is equal to 2l2, 900 tuns
measurement, and would load 212 ships ola thousand
tuns each being four ships a week for all the year.
You can see at a glance how important IS the manu-
facture of this article to the shipping interest.
'The vast amount of freight that is given to our rail
roads and canals in this country is equally important,
for the revenue Of it is very heavy, although the value
of it is insignificant when compared to many other ar
ticles that are sold and forwarded to all parts of our con-
tinent; yet the freight is paid on bulk and weight
The average freight from England to the United
States is abont FIVE per cent. on its cost the average
freight from Philadelphia to Pittsburgh is about the
same.
.The manufacture of earthenware can be traced, and
has been the means of preserving the evidences OF past
civilization, as far back as the Tower of Babel. 1t is
not now confined to England, but is made in some form
in every country on the globe. The Chinese, the Japan
csc and the French are now famed for the magni6cence
of these articles of porcelain; and indeed, the French
China manufacture is becoming a great source of revenue
to this government, and is now a staple article of use in
all parts of the United States.

Health and Climate.

Sir James Clark, of England, has assailed with con-
siderable force the doctrine that a change of climate is
beneficial to persons suffering from consumption and a
French physician, NJ. Carriere, has written forcibly
against it. DR.. Burgess, an eminent Scotch physician,
also contends that climate has little or nothing to do
with the cure of consumption, and that if it had, the
curative effects would be produced through the skin and
not the lungs. That a warm climate is not in itself
beneficial, he shows from the fact that the disease is
common to all ATTITUDES. In India and Africa, tropical
climates, it is as frequent as in Europe and North
America. At Malta right in the heart of the genial Me-
diterraaeau, the army reports of England show that one
third of the deaths among the soldiers are by consump-
ton. At Nice, a favorite resort of English invalids,
especially those afflicted with lung complaints, there are
more native-born persons die of consumption than in
any English town of equal population. In Geneva the
disease is almost equally prevalent. In Florence, pneu-
monia is said to be marked by a s~uffocating character,
and by a rapid progress towards the last stage. Naples,
whose climate is the theme of so much praise by travel
ers, shows in her hospitals a mortality by consumption
equal to one in two and ~one-third, whereas Paris, whose
climate is so often pronounced villainous, the proportion
is only one in three and one-quarter. In Madeira, no
local disease is more prevalent than consumption.
THE JEws.-Our childhood is nursed with tales of
the childhood of the Jewish nation. Peaceful patri-
archal families coalescing into a tribe, creeping with
stealthy defiance from the treacherous hospitality OF
Egypt, hardened by their desert life, and moulded into
a nation of warriors by the greatest of ~lawgivers, shat
tering the giant Anakim by the force of faith and law,
and giving birth to sublime prophets and a long line OF
kings such is the ancient story, which we know far
better than the tale of Saxon, Dane and Norman. We
follow them into their exile, their happy restoration,
the magnificent fury of their last defiance, and then we
lose them utterly for many centuries, to find them in the
present day rising once again from misery and delle-
ment, reyered, like Epidas, for age and sorrow, and
gifts not earthly Stunned, like him, for memories OF
awful and mysterious sin.
