has offered inducements to the New England women to emigrate out there at once. An experiment on a small scale was made in 1861, and partly succeeded. He has reiuined with the official sanction of the territorial government, for the purpose of taking back with him a ship load of the youth and beauty that grace the and cities of the East. Some months ago Mr. Mercer's prospects were vastly belter than ihey now seem lor a full cargo.

Still he feele ensured that the atesrnahip Continental, which will clear from York Will bear over the heaving bosom of the! Atlantic and Pacific Oceans 400 or 600 home and husband seekers for the far West. I hese women are principally from the New England many ol them from Boston and Lowell? while a few have arrived from Central New York and Ohio, and other Western Smes. The voyage, which will be entirely by tea, ill prove quite an agreeable one alter the first sea-sick nets all have been conquered. The summer season souih of the equator, with its long days and moonlight nights, the scenery in the straits of Magellan, the opportunity to Rio Janerio, Valparaiso, and San rancisco, together with the library has been furnished for the use of passengers, will tend to make the expedition both entertaining and instructive.
