WESTWARD MOVEMENT (Cont'd)
2558 - H&G June 2; ed: 2/3 - We notice by the Illinois papers tbat several
large colonies have located in the northern part of that State the past
spring on the Illinois and Rock Rivers. Beyond the Mississippi, on the
blooming prairies of Iowa, many others have fixed their dwellings.
Wisconsin, too, is receiving a full share of the moving tide, and the
Pittsburgh INTELLIGENCER notices tbe passage through that city of a
single caravan of settlers from Lynn, Mass., bound for Huron county, Ohio,
consisting of nine fami I ies, numbering 38 persons.
"The great eastern hive -1S pouring out its annual swarms - every
western boat carries onward its hundreds - the National Road, that great
thoroughfare of land emigrants is whitened with the movers' wagons -
and every aVenue to the empire valley is alive with 'journeying tribes.· tI

2559 - H&G July 10; ed:2/3 - "But yesterday the Reserve was the limit
of western emigration; and to day, some of the early pioneers are startled
with letters from their children, describing a fairer land and brighter
waters a thousand miles nearer the setting sun! Such is the march of
emigration. (3)
