The State Immigration Bureau has gone to
work with the zeal and energy VIC expected
Of it. There is TO be no waiting for an appro-
p~riation from the Legislature the Bureau
has already begun, secured headquarters at
1859 Common street, and is sending out circu-
lars and Information.
The movement is receiving cordial indorse-
ment and active assistance from oil quarters,
and from the good will shown there now seems
to be little doubt that q large portion Of the
money requiledGto carry on a successful i'm
migration will bs subscribed even before the
Legislature meets, New Orleans being put
down for $4,000 or $40, eco. With this city
leading off handsomely, we cannot doubt that
the country parishes will fall in line and do
their share of the good work.
The immigration movement, thus auspi.
| ciousIy begun, must be kept up from this time
| forward until the tide Of population pours in
to the State by thousands. Once, the immi.
| grants commence pouring here the movement
| will work of itself, and Louisiana will not be
required to present its manifold advantages
to the country, as they will everywhere bt
fully recngs,ized. The work must be done nov
