GERHAN EMIGRATION TO AMERICA AND CHAR
ACTER OF THE EMsGRAETs.-The Berlin CORE.
spOndent of the London Times, writing on the
23d of May, says this years emigration promises
to be one Of the largest on record, and is ex-
pected 10 reach something like 250000 rs re-
markabe feature is the prevalence of the north
eIn element, chiefly Protestants, and men with a
small capital in their pockets. Ten years ago the
bulk Of emigrants was contributed by southern
eTs-Catholics and paupers, just able to pay their
passage. Now a.dsys il is, and indeed has been
for several years past the reverse. The reason
Of this is tWO-fold: The centers Of the southern
population have, by the long drain on them, freed
themselves Of their superfuous elements; the
north on the other hand, ia which Over-popula
tion was never sn evil now sends out those Of lis
field hands vho, in the last fifteen prosperous
years, have managed to lay by some little sum
Altogether destitute of CAPITAL the pTovident
nortEerner will rarely embark in such an enter
Prise. Should the emigration hence retain this
new character for some time TO come, It will be
pin to tell upon the position of the Germans in tht
United States.
