One result Of the disturbances in the East is
already apparent In the large number Of people
who have taken up the line Of march for the
Pacific, where the utmost freedom from partici.
patton ia or annoyance from those troubles may
be enjoyed We learn by private and public
adviceS Of bcdses Of people forming in different
States, and actively engaged In preparations to
emigrate to our shores The vanguard have al.
ready reached California; q few months hence,
our own Territory will receive its quota via the
Plains, and possibly not few from California,
owing to the troubles incident to the defective
land titles there.
This movement has not commenced sooner
than we expected. We regarded it as an inev-
liable consequence Of the existing condition Of
affairs in the Atlantic States, as did also many
who have carefully noted the course events have
taken. Emigrants will come from the North, the
East, the South, and the West; and the Plains,
as well as the steamers, will swarm with them.
Though We here may sincerely dep!Ors the rup-
ture that has taken place, and view with sorrow
and fear the train Of evils likely to ensue as lis
offspring, we cannot but rejoice at . result so
devoutly to be wished as that mentioned The
great desideatum Of our Terrific y is popula.
ton, and that we now shall obtain years sooner
than We should have obtained it under ordinary
circumstances What attractions Of climate,
soil, and varied resources, added to cordial invi-
tations could not accomplish for US, ere patience
was exhausted by continued disappointment
is on the eve Of accomplishment by events the
most lAmeutable Of any that could have taken
place in our government People will fly from
them, terror-stricken, as they would from des.
sOlating plague. The American possessions on
the Pacific present the only safe retreat and asy.
lum to which they can turn with hope Of safety.
In . San Francisco paper, received few days
since, we find the following paragraph:
"The Sonora brought one hundred and ten
children, one hundred Of whom are under Eve
years Of age. The passenger list includes nearly
three hundred families who have never been IN
California. They will be permanent settlers, and
report numbers Of their aequaintances preparing
Those who are trying 70 create civil war in Cali
lOrnia will please notice"
We may look for the steamers following this
to be freighted in like manner. In relation to
theOverland emigration, the Jacksonville C0regOn)
Sentinel says;
" A letter has been received in this town from
Or. l.. s. Thompson, now at the East In which
the writer says he has received the appointment
Of surgeon-in-chief 10 an expedition soon to start
from the States overland to Oregon, BY aid Of
the 360,00O appropriated BY Congress at the
last session for the benefit Of the emigrants 10
this State. A large number will come with the
expedition, well supplied and strongly armed
At least great portion, II not the whole Of the
emigration viii come In BY way Of the Southern
route 10 this Valley, where DR.. Thompson's CON.
mission ceases. With tins great start, &c d not
too much 70 hope that the immigration 10 this
section during tho anauine VaaP- -Rill-emguut- 20
thousands ThatnumboF and more can find good
homes, good farms and good mining claims here
among us, and limo region can they flnd supe-
TiOr II equal Inducements for settlement The
hardy immigration from the older States with
their hbor as their best capital, Is Just what Is
wanted here 70 develop the agricultural and min
ing resources Of the country, and bring out the
latent Wealthof the soil in every way. All that
come will be greeted - brethren and provided
for likewise with what they will most require
homes In land where industry and prosperity %
hand IN hand without the chance Of ALLURE
where labor b not subject 10 the caprice cT ty.
ranny Of capital; and where the earth yields "a
richest rewards to those who delve q miners o.
