ACCURATE statistics of immigration
over only thirty-six years of our national - '
tional life. The emigration commission
.n New York was organized in 1847.anfl
in that year the first reliable record of
arrivals was begun. From that date ti ,
the clo.-c of last year the total number j
of immigrants arriving in the United '
States wa more than ten and a. half
millions. This year's accessions will
swell it to over eleven millions. The
Xew York Evening Post institutes : i
comparison of this total with the popu
lation of some of the other countries of
the world , and this gives an idea of its
immense size. It is more than -doable
the whole population of Ireland or of
the Dominion of Canada. It is nearly a
third of the population of Great Britaia
and almost half of that of England.
