Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Virginia a Brief Memoir for the Information of Europeans Desirous of Emigrating to the New World The undersigned, European Agent of Immigration for the State of Virginia, for thirty years an inhabitant and citizen of the United States, a European by birth, addresses himself in the following lines, chiefly to that class of emigrants, who desire by cultivation of the soil or development of mineral resources and manufactures to create for themselves an independent home in the New World. Many years of residence and experience in this country, joined to extensive travels North, South and West, as well as a personal acquaintance with the most prominent men in the United States, during that long period, have given him unusual and ample opportunities for rigid examination of the capacity of the soil, the influence of the climate and the character of the inhabitants of the various States now composing the Union. It is, therefore, upon the basis of personal experience, that he has undertaken to inaugurate a system of immigration to the State of Virginia, as, in his opinion, offering, in every important respect, excellent facilities in soil, climate and productions, for the labors of the intelligent and thrifty husbandman, mechanic, artisan, miner and manufacturer, and the accumulation of wealth. In prosecution of this plan he will visit the principal European countries shortly. At this time he proposes merely to give a brief outline of the State, as regards her natural divisions, the different soils, climates, productions and facilities for transportation, of each district.
