IJlMIGRATION.

The advantages which the United States offer
to the laboring classes Of Europe are 80 great
and so indisputable, that only two things are
needed TO make the stream Of immigration from
Europe TO this country greater than anything Of
the kind the world has ever Seen-extensive cir
culation Of correct information upon the condi-
ton of the United States, and the assurance
of free passage for poor emigants. How
to furnish both in the most efficient manner, is
question which well deserves the closest at
tention Of all who desire the increase Of the Ia
Dor and the wealth Of the country.
Private parties have already begun to move
in this matter. The editor Of The Nen- York
Hardware Reporter, Mr.. Williams, has sent
over a special agent to England, who has gra-
tuitously circulated among the homework
ing population more than twenty thou
sand copies Of a special number Of The
Hardrare Reporter, exhibiting the wonder
full resources and the brilliant prospects Of this
country, and the inducements which it offers to
industrious immigrants. The reports Of this
agent encourage the belief that large numbers
of the laboring people will come over TO America
as soon as they can make it possible. Another
agent is on the point Of leaving for the mining
districts Of Germany, in order to circulate there
some 10000 copies of a German translation of
Tie Reporter.
Mr.. Williams has just published pamphlet
containing interesting extracts from the letters
of his agent, and setting forth his views as to
what could and ought to be done to promote
European immigration. The pamphlet deserves
to be recommended to the attention of all who
feel all interest in this momentous question. A
similar movement, we believe, has been started
in Boston, the aim Of which is also to encour-
age the immigration Of the better class Of opera
tiyes from tie mining and manufacturing dis
tricts of Great Britain. Precisely what has
been done We arc not Informed, but the work is

All the world has known for the last two
years that great number of successful cam
paigns and battles we're planned and fought by
Gen. McClellan-on paper. In particular, it
has been well understood, and has been
admitted with an alacrity equal to the eager
ness with which il has been claimed, that
the title to what is called the Pennsular route 10
Richmond was vested exclusively in that
General The only difficulty in this part of
the case has been that he never perfected
his little claim by actual possession.
But that he had right to 90 to Rich
mond by way of the Peninsula; that it was
very doubtful If anybody else had the same
right; that at any rate if anybody else did go
that way it would be evidence that Mcclellan
might have gone if he had been let alone; that
in fact there is no real road to Richmond except
by the Peninsula, and that all Others whatsoever
are delusve, imaginary, and impossible routes;
that Richmond would have been taken ria the
Peninsula long ago but for certain jealousy at
Washington of McClellan's engineering ability
whereby he discovered-or invented-and sur
veyed-aiar ofr-this admirable highway-al
these facts, and assertions, and claims, the world
has for q considerable period meekly admitted
and allowed as not worth an argument What
ever glory belongsto the Peninsufar strategy no
bitterest encmy--if such he haye-of Gen.
Mcclellan ever dreamed Of denying TO him.
But We suddenly find ourselves called on to
recognize q different and broader claim. A
Copperhead Mcclellan journal-though that
expression is, to say the least, plconastc, since
every Copperhead paper is for McClellan-has
Just discovered that its favorite commander has
a sort of Camden and Amboy Monopoly Of all
the roads to Richmond, and that it will hence
forth be impossible TO attack that place in any
way without royalty to him who first con-
ceived the notion of its capture. 1t is seriously
claimed tor Mcclellan that Gen. Grant, because
be is supposed TO have determined on the reduc-
ton of the Rebel capital, has adopted an idea
which Mcclellan originated. ~ is alike honor

THE NEW.JRRsEY MONOPOLY.

We print III another part OF this paper an
elaborate and ingenious plea for the preserva-
ton of the Monopoly sold TO the Camden and
Amboy Company by certain persons acting in
the character OF legislators for the State of
Now-Jersey Of the right to cross TINT State from
New-York to Philadelphia on iron rails. We
beg every reader who can spare the time TO
study this plea attentyely. -Four able lawyers
ALL well feed by the Monopoly, as they should
behave united their efforts for the production
Of this document; and have evinced consider
able skill in their professional art Of defending
the indefensible. We do not remember any
justification Of Algerine piracy, in the palmy
days Of that venerable institution that was,
on the whole SO successful as this; though we
think DR.. Franklin's Mohammedan plea for tho
perpetuation Of the African Save-Trade was
rather more plausible. If you will only swallow
without ruminaton the combined lawyers as
sertons, there is no monopoly-or rather, the
State imposes no tax on passengers travel
ing through the State, but only an equta-
bic tax on the property Of the Company
Then the express delegation to Congress by the
Federal Constitution "to establish Post Offices
and Post-Roads," and TO regulate Commerce
among the several States"-how could powers
more comprehensive, more explicit, more peril
nent, have been granted Suppose the State Of
New-Jersey had seen fit to sell to Edwin A.
Stevens g. Company the exclusive right to carry
Mails and maintain Post-Offices within that
State, what would the Company's four lawyers
have the Federal Government do In the pre-
mises' We would have it act as the general
good might from time to timo require, without
the smallest respect for the impudent attempt of
the Legislature to uSurp powers expressly con-
fded by the People of the entire country to
their General Government, to be used for their
common benefit and TO establish justice" and
"promote the general welfare" of the aforesaid
People.
