to col t,Due. Comment upon such state of affairs

cOrdingly.

Mr.. We're Foster, an English gentleman who has
devoted bis time and money to the establishment
and promotion of Systematic Emigration from the
Old World to the New, came OutsOme weeks since
in advance of party of lao picked emigrants,
who had been shipped from Liverpool under his
direction in the "City of Mobile" which sailed on
the 26th of May, and arrived on the lst Of July.
Some of these emigrants were promptly forwarded
to their friends in different sections; number,
contrary to Mr.. F.. advice, stopped in this city;
while the residue, "a in ALL started directly from
the Castle Garden depot for the West, under Mr..
Fosters personal oversight. The experiment was
more than satisfactory. The Railroads passed the
party in first.cass cars, though they paid but emf
grant fare they were met at Syracuse, at Detroit,
and at Chicago, by eminent and trusty persons in
terested in their welfare-the Catholic priests in
each locality having made provision in advance for
those of their communion, and standing ready to
take them by the hand on their arrivals and those who
continued % far reached their ultimate destnatOn-
Jauesville, Wisconsin, 1,O6O miles hence--in 4i3
hours from this city, every one being in the enjoy
ment of good health. Each was hired at fair
wages, without an hours delay, and was vel
coined to the house of some cOuntryman to rest and
refresh for few days prior to going to work. Mr..
Foster, having seen each of his emigrants thus
satisfactorily provided for, returned to our City,
and left for Europe in the Arabia on Wednesday.
He expects to come out with (or in advance of
another party of emgrants in September
The very great superiority of Systematic Emigrs-
ton over the No-System hitherto prevailing is
manifest. The entire expense Of removing these
people from their old homes in the interior of
ireland to their new homes in Wisconsin falls
below $25 each; and they were hardly six weeks
from work to work. The average expense of
struggling emigrant from Ireland to Wisconsin is
not less than $50, and whole season is usually
consumed in the process. The moral safeguards Of
Mr. Fosters system are even more valuable than
its pecuniary advantages. The usual temptations
to ntemperance, lewdness and vagrancy, and the
exposure to imposition, fraud and robbery, are
completely p1ecluded by this plan. We trust it
may be widely extended and perpetuated.

observance of the first day ofsach week as season

have upon the tender minds Of the boys and girls OF
this city 1t was bad enough to have Jack Shep-
pard and Dick Turpin make felony familiar and
attractive within the walls of low theaters; but
from those damnable nurseries of crime some Of US,
at least. could keep our children. 1t was bad
enough when murder, robbery, incest and all con.
ceivabe wrongs and vices, were painted in high
and allurine cOlOIs, in yellow cOvered books and
cheap newspapers but these might, with little
care, be kept from untainted homes. Now, the
street walls afford all passersby grasutous instruc
ton in crime and youthful eyes can gaze
upon scenes Of violence and sin-upon one long
panorama of the gamblers hell, the fOrger's den
and the harlots house of death. Is it strange then
that in this City violence is rife and murders
thicken; that Thousands of boys of tender years
are already old in crime; that our streets swarm
with prostitutes, hardly one of whom is over
twenty And yet, in a city governed as ours has
been and is, wholly and fatally misgoverned, moth
ing can prevent this perpetuation of criminal iudu-

homogeneous sights and sounds which good breeding

Yet we have people among US who not merely
decline 10 honor the Ssbbsth-ss they have an un.
disputed right to debut who insist on their very
questionable right to disregard it de6antly ostenta

feelings or the circumstances of their Sabbath.
keeping neighbors. Would the Christian who should
insist on doing thus in Damascus, on the Mohamme.
dan Sabbath, prove himself loyal, well.bred, well.
behaved citizeni We think not.
But what we most dislike in the course Of the
anti Sabbath men is their mode of warriag against
the enforcement of the laws that undoubtedly
exist, and the officers chosen to enforce them. II
we belonged to their side, we should insist on
having every Sabbath-respecting act or ordinance
enforced with rgor, and should blame, not the Of.
fcers whs executed, but those whe evaded the
Sabbath laws. We should wish to make broad
and absorbing issue On these laws, - a. to secure
their early modification or repeal. We should dis
dain to live On suferance as tolerated or favored
visiatsr of the laws Of the land, but should insist
on bringing these laws at snce to judgment before
the popular tribunal.
If the anti. Sabbath men of our City will make
the issue openly and broadly-f they will fling out
their banner inscribed Repeal Of the Sabbath
laws I've shall not, indeed, cooperate with them,
but we promise them fair hearing andall the cour-
teses of honorable warfare. If they choose, on the
other hand, to be content with the position Of per.
United or unObserved law breakers-if they are
content with backs whispers promising i'm
munty from the legal consequences of their deliber.
ate acts-then we must respect and treat them ac-
cOrdDely.
