:. Houses, cabins, or comfortable quar-
tiers should be furnished on the lanos tor
immediate occupation. These the emi~
grant would pay for at once, or as might
be agreed on with the company. These
would be of very cheap style, to serve

In many cases it will BE- the interest al
the company to give away lots and smell

| Lands for raising hops in the Mohawk
Valley. New York, are worth SoUU, S4oo,

wheat barley, potatoes, peaches, aPples'
nooro nlums and numerous other things
GROW to perfection, can now be purchased
in Mississippi at 80 and So per acre.
Rut. with such immigrant organizations
and land companies, those lands, In ten

dollars per acre, and compensate all the
financial losses of this transition state.

we fail. somebody will do it, and reap
the compensation.

in few years the population OF the

to several millions. Immigration and
