Lrown, Sec’ry. | December 1 s, v> ! Another Letter from Mr. Emmett. EMIGRATION. We (Kerry Evening Post) lately published a letter from New-York, written by 1 . A. EMMETT, Ksq. to a Lady in this Town, which was calculated to correct very es sentially the general spirit of Emigration to America.—The following letter from the same Gentleman, cannot fail of a like eli'oet, and must induce considerable cau tion in pursuing a measure, wherein “ most of those who engage in it are grievously disappointed.” The following letter was received by Mr. John F. Eager, of this town (Tralee) : “Nsw-Yoiik, July 7, 1818. “ SIR—A few days ago 1 received your letter, inquiring after your bro ther. who came out to America about two years and a half ago—l never ; had the pleasure of seeiug him (as he i did nut come on from Baltimore to New-York,) hut 1 remember perfectly well receiving letters by him atld from him ; you were misinformed when you hoard that I had procured him a situation in the American Army : for that wonld. have been almost as im possible for me as to have made him President of the United btates. 1 ' tried to gel him employment in Bal- I tirnore—but 1 believe it did not entire* j ly suit his views, and that he eou ■ traded a strong desire, with many ■ of his acquaintances from the same * part of Ireland, to join the patriots in Soulh-America, under General Car rera, who was theu in Baltimore, nud collecting as many volunteers as he ; could. 1 do not exactly recollect I whether your brother consulted* me on the subject; but several Kerry young men did; ami I constantly dis suaded them from embracing an ad venture, (lie danger and difficulty of which they did not know, and for which they were by do means fitted ; ! very few however, attended to my advice and L have heard nothing of or from any of them siuee their depar ture, so (hat 1 am unable to give you any particulars about your brother— but I aui sorry to say, lire story you have heard is muehtoo probable, and I have not had a line from him tinee the first three mouths after he caine to America—A young man of the mime of Yielding was prevented by me from going to that country, but he has not on that accuuul been mure , fortunate. Eluding it impossible to I get any situation in the northern parts of this country, he determined, on the advice of some of his acquaintance, to go to Georgia—l gave him some j letters there, and he got in a situation in Augusta, where he was very much I liked—but he died there last year of ! the yellow fever, leaving some papers I and little articles, that 1 shuuld wish to know his brother's desire how they | should be disposed of. j “As to jour own coming out here, it may be a very wise and it may he a very foolish act—Most of those who come out are grievously disap pointed, because they set out with Lilse notions (which I am afraid is your case) and very small, if any, means. I would encourage every man who is a good carpenter, cabinet tna j ker, smith, Ko. ik,c. who is determined to be sober and industrious, and does not care to what part of the country he goes, to comeout and it will be his own i fault if he does not succeed—so also j every hard-working farmer, who will take the plough iu his own hands, and is uut above doing every part of his own work, may thrive extremely well, if he is properly advised and will follow good advice ; but a merchant or at torney’s clerk, or a small shopkeeper, that has not sufficient property to en able him to lie on his oars, aud look , about fur a suitable situation, cau ; nut do a more unwise thing than to come out here, trusting to ehauce hi* good for line, or even letters of recommendation to fix him Os those persons we have hundreds upon hundreds from Ireland, walkin'* about the streets, with their hands in their pockets, doing noting, and with nothing in their pockets but their hands. 1 have very great doubts whether you would find the Brewing or Distilling business answer, as both are over-crowded they certainly would | not any where that I am acquainted 1 w ith unless you brought a haudsome capital with you I can say the same of a Country Merchant, which is very different here from any thing you have been accustomed to, aud you would have to learn it like a new begiuuer, as to look out for a proper situation; aud of course you must have spare money to support you aud your family while that is doing, aud afterwards I iume to set up with. What ******** would wish to do in this couutry >ou { kave uut mentioned. If he has rnouey i enough to buy a good fat m and indus i try enough to work on it as hard as | »»y common labourer—if his wife can j briug herself to be a hardworking far- J luer '* helpmate, to look to his cows am. larm-yurd, and to the spinning aad making her own, his, aud the children's clothes—and if both of them I ean content themselves with the so ciety of each other, and of their ehii ft j dren, for some years, till the country ; grows up around them, he may count ! upon very fair prospeels of indepen | dencc, comfort aud opulence in his •Id age, and to go on thriving and bet -1 tering in the world. But if he be like many of the Middlemen w Imm I Lavs se«u in Kerry, that would live on rents and let others labour, and think it beneath the dignity of a Gentleman ! to be seen working like a ploughman, ' he had mach better stay where he is, ! for he would be disappointed, ruined | and miserable, if he came out here— ! This is a country of honest industry—. w e have none of that class of Gentle men, and if any of them accidentally. ! straggled among us he would be des- I pised and shunned by every one, as an useless and injurious member of society. 1 have thus endeavoured to answer your letter plainly aud expli citly, because 1 have been very often grieved and vexed to see the false steps that many persons have taken in coming out to this country, for which they are by no means adapted, where they can neither get or aay bu siness— where they can, therefore, never be happy—and where vexatiou and wunt drive them into habits that make them odious aud a scandal to 1 lie sober and industrious. lam very glad to bear of the prosperity and welfare of my friends in Kerry, parti cularly your uncle O M , to whom 1 desire my best compliments, as also to Mrs. , if she be still alive. There are many others in Tralee and its neighbourhood for whom 1 entertain sincere regard—l am, Sir, with best wishes, your obedi ent servaut and friend. “ THOMAS ADDIS EMMETT. “ Mr. John F.
