before we appeal to arms. II we have endured
great wrongs at the hands of those who plotted
and prayed for our destruction, we have also
great patience and great confidence In the ulti-
mate result of our proceedings. But while we
press our ideas of an international congress
upon the consideration Of European states
men, we take occasion to again warn them
that our patience may be taxed too long
and too far; that we are perfectly pre-
pared for war a. well as for peace,
and that in any event, by diplomatic means or
by the sterner methods Of general conflict,
the Monroe doctrine must and shall be enforced,
and Macmillan must and shall relinquish bis
Legitimate throne in Mexico. gy
THE EMIGRATION OF EN0LDH FACroRY HANDS.
The Inman steamship kangaroo, which arrived
ct this port hast Saturday from Liverpool, land-
ID over one hundred and my artisans and no
tory hands from England and ireland, Who
come to seek employment in the great manufAo-
turing centres Of the New England States, and
aid in developing the rapidly increasing conn
mercial interests Of the Union. These people
come from Manchester, Bradford, Hudders6eld
and Belfast, and are destined for Lowell, Lynn,
Lawrence, Waltham and Boston, MAssachu-
setts /; Providence, Rhode Island, and New Lon
don, Connecticut. They are of . respectable,
class, fairly educated, industrious and full Of
hope for the future in consequence Of the very
encouraging reports which had reached them
from some Of their associates who proceeded
them to our shores. X .,sa4 gii'saas Z
This feature Of the European emigration
movement is very important just now-impor-
tant to England, which loses 50 many valuable
subjects, and important TO the United States,
which receives such an infusion Of skilled labor
at moment when we are about to compete
earnestly with the vast, nggrandized and senior
manufacturing and trading power Of the world.
When these cmigrants embarked, on the 9th
Of September, the effects of the 1cotton crisis"
produced by the Davis rebellion, we're fast dis
appearing from England. The mills which had
been on Ahalf time' for the past two years had
commenced to run afulls time" and factories
which were closed during the same interval
were on shalt time" Z, Advices had been
received that very large supply Of cotton
waited shipment at New Orleans, and on the
whole the capitalists were in excellent spirits
Just then comes warnings from tho operatives
announcing their intended departure Cor Anne
RIGA, SO that just as we commenced to forward
material for the looms did we begin to attract
| the hands which fashioned Il into shape. This
| fact excited the commercial and financial mind
of England to an uneasy degree. The emigra-
ton of working hands from England will,
however, 60 on and increase Is 1t goes. The
masses Of the English people have full faith
in the integrity Of the Union, and with energy
and enterprise, and resolved to better the con-
dition Of themselves and their families, no
| inducement which the factory proprietors may
hold out to them can now retain them at half
wages, and under an Ill regulated system Of
work In the land of their birth, when they
know, that they can enjoy freedom, employ
ment, good pay, and education for their chill
dren under it's flag.

complete repression and prevention" Repres
