westward under the glowing descriptions

dlsaplnintments. At Humboldt recently,
there were nearlya thousand emigrant
wagons, filled with distressed women and

the lcIusivc hope tllat they could better
their condition without knowing how ii

Chicago Tribune, is filled with mechanics
who can find nothing hut laborcrs
work to do. In Kansas City the wages
Of labor are lower than at the East

some cases; that mon continue to be en-
ticcd away upon these long and expensive

We can only wonder at the want Of fore.

their bitter disappOintmcnts; and tho sec
