EMIGRATION FROM STATE TO STATE

According to the returns of the last United States
census, remarks the Boston Post, there are moro
natives Of the Southern States residing in the North
IN proportion to Southern population, than of the
Northcrners who live in the South In Maine
there are to be found 3,092 persons who were
Southcrners by birth whereas in Missssippi There
are but 2,5GG natives of the Northern States The
smalness of the number of New Engandcrs in the
South is quite remarkable: and we think that the
largcneSs of the number OF natives of the South TO
be found in New England will quite astonish those
who have not examined the subject. For cyamnIn
there are 27l natives of Virginia residing in Maine
and only 81 natives of Maine in Virginia The
whole number of natives of New England residing
IN Mississippi is l25, while there 1923 natives of
Mississippi residing in New England. These are
examples of the state Of things on Il wide scale
In looking over all the free States we find that
Massachusetts has SI52 natives of the south while
New ork has about 10000. Other Northern
States that have large numbers of southern born
inhabitants are Pennsylvania, Ohio, Illinois and
Indiana.
\ few facts will further show that southern men
cmigratc much from one State to another in their
own section Of the inhabitants Of Virginia. TO-
600 were natives Of North Carolina; as many of
Alabama; l6, 600 of Tennessee. and 81 900 of ken
tuckv. To people North Carolina there came
$1,000 from Georgia. 2S, coo from Alabama, - 900
from Tennessee, and II GOO from Kentucky As a
general law, the emigration flows westward from
State to State, the parallels of latitude For
example, emgrantS from New England find their
new homes in New Ork, Ohio, Michigan Wiscon-
sin, Illinois and Iowa, while the Georgian seek. an
adopted home in Alabama, Mississippi, louisiana
or Texas and yet we find many exceptions 10 this
law. 1t was. perhaps owing, in part. to this Gen
era tendency OF emigration in this country that it
flowed rather more naturally into Kansas from the
free than from the slave States.
Emigration has flowed very RAPIDLY from the
seab0ard Slave States to the Western and South
western. Two or three facts will indicate the vast
extent OF it, From South Carolina alone. lSG.479
native white CarolinianS have been distributed
through W and ln
of Texas in 1850 but 5l.Gll: now it is about
GOO 000 and mainly the result OF emigration from
States to the eastward Oft Foreigners, particu-
larlv Germans. have tiled more in Texas than
perhaps many oth Southern State Germans Ee ran
to settle in Texas as early lSl3, being invited
there by Texas land spectators. In lSi5. . O00
families embracing 5000 Germans, had been indu-
Ccd to the sea to enter State that was th,
year annexed to the United States an event which
was followed by the late with Mexico. Within
few wears. there has been ii considerable ei1iara-
tion from the free States to Virginia, Kentucky,
Missouri and other Slave States with a view OF in
Producing free labor for agricultural and other
purposes. Thus. Slave labor has gradually pressed
further South. Such processes may have some
thing to do in promoting a general system of elan-
cipation in the Northern Slave States.
FROM HAVANA.
The United States Mail steamship Cahawba J. d.
Bullock, commander, from New Orleans via Ha-
vana arrived at New York ON Friday afternoon at
Quarantine. She arrived at Havana on the evening
of the 10Th. but did not sail until the afternoon Of
the 3Oh. The brig Nancy still furnishes a topic for
conversation; and it is not fairly known what will
be done with her. The general impression is that
she will be liberated. There is very little shipping
in the harbor. Freiehts still continue low. Stock

FROM MEXICO.
Adviccs from Vera Cruz to the 7th and from tho
City of Mexico to the 9TH of August contain little
or no news Of Importance The suppression OF all
the opposition newspapers in the City OF Mexico
| and the refusal of the Government to allow any
thing to be published which might tend to diminish
there authority, leaves the inhabitants of the City
of Mexico quite destitute of any knowledge of what
is going on beyond the immediate ncighborhood OF
the city, and dependent for news upon the New
Orleans papers. In that city and its vicinity the
power of the Xuloaga Administration was still
mistaken, and they had rcsorted to the cypcdirnt
of compelling the mOneyed men to advance them
money on the security of the obligation of the
clergy. These obligations, however, were in very
bad credit, from the prevailing expectation that il
of the triumph Of the Constitutional party the
| Church would be stripped of all its possessions.
Of the military movements in the interior moth
/ ing was known, though Il decisive contest is SOoI
