It says. "According to our own observation, (for we have travelled much duiing the past season,) the tide is setting on the various lines of travel towards the land of promise.

The Prairies have the whole season been literally blocked up with 'movers' and from the representations, people enough have exchanged homes from the East to the West in 1840, to add another State to the national Constellation; had they all located in a single territory. Missouri, Iowa, Illinois and Wisconsin have received a large portion of tho "new comers." Ohio, but a few years since the West, is now the starting point for the Far West. The Upper Mississippi is no longer the utmost verge of that undefined and interminable te riti ry residents beyond talk of a still farther West, and but a few years ere the swelling wave will break over the Rocky Mountains, and tho quiet vales of the Columbia will teem with a people whose progenitors dwelt in rugged New England, and looked upon the Alleghanies as the impassible boundary of the Western world.

The importation of silk duiing the year ending 30lh of September, 1839, amounted to nearly twenty-three millions of dollars, as will be seen by the following items copied from the report of ihe secretary of the treasury of the commerce and navigation of the United States for that year, which has been politely sent us by the secretary of the treasury.

There is an error in the statement published in the newspapers of upwards of two millions, as cjmpared with the otficial report; the newspaper report ma king the amount of imports from other places than India and China and the official repoit making the same item S18.6S95.295 Silks from India and China piece goods $1,738,509 Silks from India and China sewings 50,659 Silks sewings from other places than India, 818,284 Silks, raw silk 39,258 Silks from other places than India, lace veils; shawls, shades, 315,490 Silk other manufactures, from other places than India, Sec, 18,685,295 Manufactures of silk and worsted, $2, 319.884, following half the value thereof to be silk, 1,159,942 $22,838,028 r' Compared with other articles imported, that of silk is one-fourth more than the amount of any other. The amount of manufactures of cotton imported was of iron, $12,051 668; of cloths and ca simeres worsted stuffs, other manufactures of wool, $3 one half the value of silks and worsted stuffs, $1,169,942 total woolen goods, $18,831,90. The importation of sugar amount linen, $6,631,278. So that the importation silk nearly equals that of woolen and linen together, and is equal to half of all other fabrics combined. Need we say as to the impor-tince of saing this immense expenditure rto the nation, now that it is established beyond all question that we are more capable of producng the article of silk ourselves than any other cjuntry.
