THE IMMIGRATION SUBJEcr.-Among those
who have recently arrived here, is John
Everett, ESQ.,, the celebrated banker Of
Lombard street, London, who is yet unre
hitting in his efforts to introduce the hard
worked and hardly remunerated farmers
and operatives from toll worn England, to the
vast and fertile resources of the South.
1t will be remembered that some fifteen
months ago, Mr.. Everett travelled through
the South, fulfilling his self imposed human.
itarian mission, while at the same time he
represented the sum of many millions OF
dollars of London capitalists, ready to be
embarked in this beneficial enterprise.
Mr.. Everett will remain at the St. Charles
Hotel until next Friday, and we hope that
our influential citizens will desire him to
favor US with one of his stirring ~discourses
on this all important matter. - N. o. Repub.

ST.. Louis HOME JouKNAL.-The entcrpri-
sing propr.etors Of the Home Journal have
proved the fallacy of the assertion that a

shown that the West has authors ond poets
who are the peers of any IN the realm of

ais of absorbing interest follow each other
in rapid succession, and We congratulate
the Home Jnrnal on its unequivocal sue
