Excerpt from Organization, Objects, and Plan of Operations, of the Emigrant Aid Company: Also a Description of Kansas; For the Information of Emigrants
The immense emigration to America from Europe introduces into our ports a very large number of persons eager to pass westward. The fertility of our western regions, and the cheap ness of the public lands, induce many of the native born citizens of the old States also to emigrate thither. At the present time public and social considerations of the gravest character render it desirable to settle the territories west of Missouri and Iowa and these considerations are largely increasing the amount of westward emigration.
The foreign arrivals in America, last year, were 7 7. In the same year, the emigration to Western States, of Americans and foreigners, must have amounted to much more than persons. The emigration thither, this year, will be larger still. And from the Older Western States large numbers are removing into new territory.
