TO EMIGRANTS.
It is a matter of the first importance to those who are about emigrating to a new country, to be correctly informed in regard to the character of the country where they propose locating; the cost of land; the climate; the expense of making farms; the facilities and proximity to a permanent and reliable market; the provisions for educating the rising generation; the cost of living; and the prices of the different articles which they are compelled either to bring with them or purchase on their arrival.
Full and accurate information upon all the above subjects will be found under the appropriate heads, in this volume.
CHICAGO LAND DISTRICT.
Total amount of land sold from the rst day of January, 1845, to the 30th day of November, 1845, inclusive, is 195, 195,08 acres. Amount unsold in the district, 1,054,804,92, acres.
This amount allows of 659 quarter-sections, or as many farms, being 160 acres each-enough for a family of six, which leaves an opening then, within sixty miles of Chicago, at this moment, for the settlement of four thousand one hundred and fifty-four in- habitants, upon land that can be purchased for $1,25 per acre.
* The first passenger (excursion) train on the Michigan Central Railroad arrived in Chicago on May 21, 1852, on the Lake shore, near 14th Street.

STATISTICS.
The greater part of which is the first-rate quality of land, and well watered with living springs and brooks, with an abundance of hydraulic power-and all within the distance of from 20 to 60 miles from Chicago. The most of the timber land has been bought up, except the barrens, and they are good for fire-wood ; and when improved, they produce the best of winter wheat, and other crops. But those who wish to purchase prairie, can procure timber land, second-handed, at a moderate advance; say from $2,50 to $5 per acre. The cost of prarie farm, fenced and broken up, will be about as follows:
COST OF MAKING A FARM.
Cost of a quarter section, 160 acres, - $200
11 Io acres of timber-land, say, 50
splitting and hauling rails and laying up a fence around 160 acres, I20
11 breaking up the same, - 240

CHICAGO PRICES.
For the information of emigrants, very few of whom know any- thing about the price of different articles in Chicago, we subjoin the following schedule of the retail price of some of the principal articles emigrants want. Persons moving West should, in all cases, sell or give away their effects, and purchase here. The freight in most cases costs as much, as the new article in this market.

RAILROAD TO GALENA AND TOLEDO.
Public attention has recently been aroused to the importance of connecting Chicago with the Upper Mississippi, and directly with the Atlantic cities; and the signs of the times seem to indi- cate a determination to effect this object at an early period .* It may safely be asserted, that works of greater importance than these, not only to Chicago, but to the West and to the commerce of the country generally, have never been projected. An exami- nation of the facts bearing upon the subject, will satisfy every one of the truth of this position.
The total tonnage of arrivals of vessels of different descriptions at this port during the year, appears to have been 242,420. As- certained tonnage of merchants' goods. passing through Chicago, westward, on the line of the proposed railroad, 133612. This estimate is independent of lumber, emigrants' goods, and many other descriptions of goods, which, could the amount be ascer- tained, would swell the freight passing in a westerly direction to a much greater amount.
An examination of the registers of several of our hotels, gives an average number of 5789 arrivals during the past year, and this multiplied by the number of hotels, gives the total number of 133, 147 arrivals of travelers. This is exclusive of the travel which the place furnishes, of those who do not stop at the hotels and such as might be considered way passengers.
There are four arrivals and departures of steam-boats at Chi- cago, during the season of navigation, exceeding on the average, 7 months. This would give 428 arrivals and departures yearly ; 430 is the estimated total number of passengers both ways daily. This would amount for the season to 92,020.
There are eight arrivals and departures of stages daily, having an average number of 15 passengers; equal to 120 daily, and 43,800 annually. Of the whole amount of travel, including emi- grants and others, the stages probably transport one-third. We may then estimate the total amount of travel for the year at 120.400-a low estimate.
No rational doubt can be entertained but that the construction of these roads would have the effect to increase the travel and business upon this route to an almost unlimited extent. Three- fourths of the immense amount of travel constantly migrating from one extreme end of the Union to another, would be a low estimate for this route during the greater part of the season.
* The first passenger train out of Chicago on the Galena & Chicago Union Railroad, drawn by the "Pioneer", its first locomotive, about five miles out, was on October 25, 1848.
25
STATISTICS.
The influence, too, which would be exerted, in diverting the transportation of goods from the East to the valley of the Mississippi: and the produce of the West to Eastern markets by this route, will be readily understood by examination of the facts and statistics bearing upon the subject. The produce of Illinois, Missouri, Iowa, and to some extent of Wisconsin; tobac- co and hemp from Kentucky; sugar, and perhaps cotton from the South, and lead from mining regions, would come this way; and from the East the immense and increasing amount of mer- chandise required for the consumption of the rapidly-settling West. The day is near at hand, when the entire West will be dependent upon the Lakes for its supply of lumber; the lumber in the Upper Mississippi, and in the Alleghany country, from which the article is now obtained, being nearly exhausted.
The above are some of the considerations going to show the importance, and in case of their construction, the probable sources of business and revenue of our works of internal improve- ment. It is to be hoped that wise councils will preside over all deliberations relating to them, and that the most energetic and efficient action on the part of the public will result therefrom.
COMMON-SCHOOLS.
Chicago is abundantly supplied with means of common-school education. The City is divided into four districts, and has, at present four public-schools, where about 1200 pupils are instruct- ed in the different branches of an English education. Two large two-story brick-edifices, capable of accommodating 1000 pupils, have been erected within the last two years, for school purposes, at a cost of about $12,000. It is expected that other similar buildings will be provided when the public good requires them.
There are now employed in the public schools, three male, and six female teachers, the former at an annual salary of $500, and the latter of $250.
The schools are under the immediate supervision of a board of seven inspectors, appointed annually by the common council; and three trustees for each district. It is the duty of the inspect- ors to examine and license teachers; visit and examine the schools at stated periods; prescribe the books to be used, etc.
The schools are sustained in part by a permanent fund, and in part by a tax, amounting ordinarily to one-half mill per centum. The fund is derived from two sources; from the proceeds of the sale of section sixteen; and from the interest of the college and seminary fund. The revenue derivable from these sources, amounts to about $4700 annually.
