We reprint this morning, for the especial
benefit of city readers A1r. 0. c. GIBBS last
letter on the subject of emigration to Tezas,
as it recapitulatcs largely the advantages he
has pointed out in previous letters, the Pc
culiar opportunities furnished newcomers
under the renting-system in thnt State, and
the best way to move from Chicago to Texas.
Mr.. GmBs' personal investigations have been
thorough aud honest, and he is convinced
that there is no other part of the country
where the climate aud facilities enable the
emigrant to earn living so easily, or offer so
good an opportunity for rapidly improving
upon the condition of se1f-support. Our
hope is that his investigations may prove
blessing to many q family that is on the
verge of starvation by hanging on to city
life in the present hard times.
