Three steamships day before yesterday brought fifteen hundred. the aggregate for the week was fiftyfour hundred and fiftysix. The cable reports as leaving last week a fleet of thirteen steamships laden with this precious human freight for the port of New York. Shipping offices over the sea are crowded with anxious emigrants. They are mostly made up of the tough Teutonic stock. whose language never syllabled slavery. Since the 1st of January. 1880. to the 20th of this month the immigration foots up 56.404. This exceeds by 38.844 the number last year for the same period. Look at these figures and observe the increasing magnitude of this marvelous movement of mankind.
