THE EMIGRATION TO MnxIco-The papers Of
Washington, Philadelphia and New York have
announcements Of an extensive contemplated
emigration to Mexico, where, it would appear,
tho Mexican government is willing to give
grants Of land to such industrious men as may
develop the resources Of that country. Many
people are under the impression that this is in
tended as military emigration; but it by no
means follows that II is so; nor do we see, un-
der the circumstances, that our government II
called upon to interfere with the voluntary
change Of residence Of any portion Of our ciH-
Gems not carrying arms out Of the country. 1t
is probable that the emigrans will defend their
ranches and plantations when they settle down
in Mexico. II Is quite natural that they should
do 90, and II also must be expected that they
will adhere to and defend those principles Of
government to which they are attached. The
English idea that every mans home Is his
castle il one that presents itself forcibly 70
every man who has castle to protect The
emigrants who receive home in Mexico will
no doubt take care Of It
