Everywhere l went, saw always the principal
booksellers the emigration agents, and in few cases
found access TO high Government officers, who were
pointed out 10 having an influence in directing
Herman emigration. i have reason to think that my
book is already widely and favorAbly known and 10
believe that il will be of important in leading at
tention 70 the immense advantages offered TO the emi
grant settler in the climate, SOIL and resources Of Mis-
BOuTi.
One thing which had chiefly at heart could not
do viz: give public lectures. Public meetings are not
lawful here without the written permission Of the pO
lice In some Cities tuch permission might have been
procured but was told that there danger Of ex-
citing the suspicion of the Government, and of doing
the more harm than good by this means but, in

the request Of Dr. Kolb Of Stuttgart an article TO be

Various canses are in operation TO check for the time

pursuits especially agriculture, have made very con-
speuous progress in most parts of Germ any and Swift

emigration Of former years has hardly yet been filled
so that laborers in demand aud find ready employ
meDt at increased wages farm laborers especially
scarce. Germany has had several fruitful years
breadstus are plentiful and the vineyards have yield
ed three successive full crops The whole nation
seems 10 be in the enjoyment Of sort Of prosperity
and freedom from want, despite its heavy burdens.
Such state of things cannot be expected long -

crops must revive again the necessity for emigration
Even the natural increase Of population will soon Gre
ato surplus which muet find its outlet in emigration
The emigration this last year amounted 70 about fifty
or sixty thousand persons the larger portion OF whom
went TO districts in which they already had friends.
In Switzerland, different state Of things exists. The
Swiss may be called the Yankees of the Old World;
they are shrewd and enterprsing accustomed and n-
clined TO seek their fortunes outside their little native
country every section Of which IL over populated.
The Swiss Government, instead of hindering emf
