THE DECREASE OF EMIGRATION.

II was expected that the commissioners Of Emf
grafton would be at work yesterday on the stalls.
tics IN regard TO the emigration during the pass
year. owing to the great pressure Of business In
the department. however, only the figures up to
December could be obtained. They AFFORD an inter.
esting comparison with the number OF emigrants
who arrived during the first II months In 1874 The
decrease during this period amounted to about
32oo0 the arrivals in 1873 numbering only 261 S01.
while those during the corresponding period in
1872 numbered 293, $50. The decrease In tine emil
grafton from Germany alone was about 2o,0O0 The
following Is comparative table OF statistics for the
nrst II months In 1872 and 1872
The New York herald., 1873-12-31

The emigration this month was stated at about
5000, which Is an enormous decrease as compared
with the $4,000 arrivals in December 1872 The
total decrease as compared with 1879 Will probably
be $4,000. It Ia remarkable fact that the irish
emigration increased during the past year us73), !,
and reached 1888 already December l. This is w

1t should be the means OF opening good
wagon road between that point and Bezenan,
which we understand can be done ut little
expense. Such will be absolutely necessary
in the near future, on the completion of The
Northern Pacific Railroad to the mouth of
Powder river, and we are decidedly of Iopis-
ion that the established fact that steamers
can ascend the river to that point, and esen
above, at Il low stage of water, and the cs-
Enlistment Of a military pos there, should
be sufficient inducement for the building of
a road at, once. We shall have more to say
on this subject in our next issue. ssf.e

Tlle same correspondent says the road will
not be finished to thc Missouri this season.

The teleprapllic report OF Meier Forsyth to
General Serbian, informs US that the steamer
Key West (tlle second largest OH the Upper
Missouril went up the Yellowstone to a point
three miles below the mouth OF Powder
river, that by removing two rocks from the
ckannel she could have gone up considerably
higher, and the navigation was better than
on the Missouri above Fort Buford. The re-
port will again awaken some interest in the

the rise began.
