Reorganization Of the German Democratic

Widespread dissatisfaction has prevailed for some
time among the leaders as wei the rank and flo

tolore in vogue. The leaders found 1t
did not work well and, In fact, did not
work at oil IN some OF the wards where
the German democratic voters were most numerous.
ana where it was especially desirable to have
strong compact organization, in order to exert that
influence upon the councils OF the party to which
the Germans by their number and otherwise prom
nent posiron in this city, believe themselves en-
titled. The voters generally we're still more dis
satisfied because they expected this orpaniza-
ton 10 succeed in securing for them the nominal
ton Of larger number Of Germans than
IT did for ward and district offices, and
have openly threatened TO bolt in every direction
and break things generally. Hence the Executive
Committee matnred and proposed ana the General
Committee OF the German Democratic Union party
adopted at their last meeting new system OF or
ganza,ion Of which the following are the principal
p0nts:
The German democratic voters Of every election
precinct are to organize ana to elect out
OF their number three delegates 10 q ward
committee, the latter to CONSIST OF these
in the ward. This ward Committee thereupon are
to select out OF their number again one delegate for
each district OF the ward to the General Committed
and cut OF the latter delegate from each ward Ii
chosen to compose the Executive Committee. No
one Of whom It can be shown that In the November
election he supported republican candidates on
either the state or county ticket can be elected
member OF the General Committee, which provi-
sion excludes oil those German democratic who
did "fite init Sigel.n the preliminary steps
for periecting this organization were taken

ton Agent.

immigration is one OF the great sources Of tho
paralleed growth and prosperity OF the country. 1t
not only increases the productive power Of the peo
pie BY increasing the aggregate force OF labor but 1t
directly stimulates enlarged production, for IL Gre
ates greater demand for the products OF labor by
Increasing the number OF consumers. But IN more
ways than one does immigration enhance the gen.
aral welfare OF the country. Mr.. Frederick Kapp,
one OF the Commissioners or Emigration in treatise
on the subject estimates the actual amount or money
brought hitler by immigrants from the Old World
~ about eighty dollars for each person. There exist
no safe ana reliable data on which to base
any correct calculation, or one that may be even
approximately true. But though 1t is generally as
sumed that the amount named by Mr.. Kapp may be
taken ct too high q figure the sum OF sixty dollars
per head taken as an average for the whole number
of immigrants Is believed to be very near the true
one. Although those who arrive in sailing vessels
from Liverpool and London are, in majority OF
cases, destitute, and also many Of those who come
In similar c0nveyances from French and German
ports those IN steamers particularly from the latter
countries, are usually well provided with means,
making up for the lack Of funds In others. The
Immigration Tor the twelve months OF the year
1858 was, IN round numbers, 100000. For the
eleven months Of the present year, ending with
the LIST OF December The immigration has exceeded
that OF the last twevem0nth by about 49, 000 bring.
ting the number to upwards OF 251, 900. This num-
Der. at the calculation referred to, would give an
addition to the money capital OF the country OF
about $15 600, O00 sum sufficient In itself to induce
the American people to wish, even on account of
this pecuniary point OF view, that immigration
might continue aud increase
