The total mumber of emigrants who came to the United States was 357,125, of whom 113,000 came from Great Britain, 67,000 from German , 11,000 from Bohemia and Hungary, 25,0 from Russia. 59,000 ifrom Sweden and Norway, 38,000 from, Italy, 3,000 from France, 6,000 from Denmark, and 4,000 from Poland. All these nationalities have to be educated into triumphing over their old-world prejudices before they can be converted into useful American citizens. Judging from the smallness of the emigration rem France, ‘ the French must either be the most happy ‘ and contented of the great European peoples, or the most destitute of the enterprise. The disadvantage of the increasing Italian immi ation may be inferred when ltis said t at, according to the official statistics of 1882, 54 per cent, of the male Italian population could neither read nor write.
