Systematic Emigration.

Mr.. Editor The disposition that has been
made OF the Chinese question makes il neces-
sary that our law-givers should speedily de-
wise some plan for the proper disposition of
the hosts that are crowding 10 our shores from
every quarter of The globe.
Emigration, ii is true, Internationally ard
indiscfiminatey is sanctioned under our Con.
stiution, but,a at present conducted, the most
obtuse can scarcely fail 10 perceive that It is
not only unattended by any beneficial result,
but that il is growing to be absolutely danger
Gus.
Thousands of foreigners of every natioual-
ty are crowdng into our already over-crowd-
ed seaboard cities, and increasing daily, thus
rendering their own condition more desper-
ate and adding to the already dire distress Of
the native population.
The amount of human energy now lying
idle in our Atlantic cities is plodigious and
unless it is promptly utilized it viii! be trans
formed into an element dangerous to the Stale
and society. This is simply historical truth,
and has recently received fresh proof by the
pr ormances of the Nihilists and Socialists 10
Europe.
What every good citizen of this Republic
should now demand is, that this now idle
power be directed into some channel by which
it can be used to develop the resources of the
country.
How this result can be reached it is not pro-
posed here 10 discuss, il is a question evidently
| fit AT this time for the best energies of Ameri-
can philosophers, philanthropisls and states
| men.
| There is room enough under the Stars and
| Stripes for all the victims of Imperial oppres-
zion whoever and wherever they are, but there
must De some discrimination in receiving them,
and some good system for utilizing the services
| they offer or we shall soon have in our midst
| liz, indeed, it is not already too late) all those
revolutionary elements, which. to-day threat
en- the stability OF every government in Eu-
| rope.
The development of the South and West Of
this country (chiehy by farming, of course, J
affords scope for the labor aud enterprise Of
one-half the population of Europe, besides
much of the surplus Of our own older cities,
bui there must I've a system by which the labor
and the laborer can be brought together, for
in most cases, the later lacks either the means
or courage TO move in the matter himself
What glad news it wonld be to the down
| troddcn peasant Of Europe if he were told OF
spot where one-half his labor would not be
required to maintain the 'pomp and circum-
stance" of royalty, but where he could own
n home, live. enjoying the blessings of peace,
equality ana law, and rear his family (wilhout
fear) 10 the glorious principles of Liberty.
