According to the returns Of the last United
States census there are more natives Of the
southern states residing in the North iu
proportion to southern population than OF
the nOrtherncrs who live in the South. We
think general opinion is the reverse OF this.
In Maine there are to be found 1892 persons
who were southcrners by birth; whereas in
Mississippi there are but $50 natives OF the
northern states The smalluess of the
number Of New EnglaDlers In the South is
quite remarkable; and we think that the
largeness of the number of natives 0f the
South to be found in New England will
quite astonish those who have not examined
the subject, For example there are 27l ua-
tivcs OF Virginia residing In Mains, and only
"a natives of Maine in Virginia. The
whole number Of natives OF New England
residing in Mississippi is l2i, while there
are 1923 natives OF Mississippi residing in
New England. These are examples ol the
state Of things on wide scale.
In looking over all the free states We find
that Massachusetts has 1852 natives Of the
South, while New York has about 10000.
Other northern states that have large mum.
bcrs Of southern born inhabitants are Penn
syyania. Ohio. Illinois and Indiana.
A few facts will show that southern men
emigratc much from one state 10 another in
their own section OF the inhabitants OF
Virginia, 1000 were natives OF North
Carolina and as many of Alabama, 10000
OF Tennessee and $4,000 of Kentucky, To
people North Carolina there came $1,000
from Georgia, 2sO00 from Alabama, $4,000
from Tennessee, and li,000 from Kentucky.
As u general law the emigration uows west.
ward or from state 10 state on the parallel
of latitude For example, emigrants from
England find their new homes in New York,
Ohio. Michigan, Wisconsin and Illinois,
while the Georgian seeks an adopted home
in Alabama, Mississippi. Louisiana and
Texas, aud yet We find many TX options to
this law. 1t was, perhaps, owing in part to
this general tendency OF emigration in this
country that il flowed rather more naturally
into kansas from the free than from the
slave states
Emigration has flowed very rapidly from
the sea board slave States, to the Western
and South Western. From South Carolina
alone, lS6,i79 native white Caroinians have
been distributed through the West and
Southwest, The population Of Texas in
1910 was bat II Gal, now il Is about 600,-
600, and mainly the results Of emigration
from States 10 the eastward Of it. Foreign
ers, particularly Germans, have settled more
IN Texas as early as lSl3, being invited
there by Texas land spectators. In lSt5.
1000 families embracing 500 Germans, had
tscn induced TO cross the sea to enter a
State that was that war annexed To the
United States. an event which was followed
by the late war with Mexico. Within
tew years there has b,en a considerable EN-
igratIon from the FREE States TO Nirgaia.
Kentucky, Missouri and other slave States,
with view OF introducing free labor for
agricultural aud other purposes. Thus
slave labor is gradually pressed lurther
South. Such processes may have something
10 do IN promoting general system OF
emancipation in the Northern Statts.--
