The following is clipped from the BOs-
ton Times. There is plenty of room for
the immigration on this coast, and there
is no fear but they will find it out, as
there is mure than one interest now at
work in the east to send them here:


We may count OH immigration from Eu-
rope this season in such volume as never
poured itself out on our shores before.
We are told that all Alsace is coming
over, to begin with, if not part of LcT-
raine. FrAnce will be much more numer>
ously represented in our immigration lists
than she has ever been. Whoever can get

countries of Europe should look about
them and seriously consider the chance of
bettering their condition and securing
peace and safety. And as no door is open
to them but emigration, they will resort
freely to that. Therefore we count on an
accession to our population this year,
greatly surprising that Of any year in our
experience.
