Bremen, September 5, 1896.
Sir: have the honor to acknowledge the re-
cept of your esteemed circular Of the 7h Of July,
1896, requesting information respecting deporta-
ton of paupers from Great Britain and other
places, &c. | am sorry that the information de-
sired is not to be procured from authentic sources
for, properly speaking, it cannot be said that pau
pers are deported from Germany, though it may
sometimes but very rarely be the case that fami-
lies, almoners, and civil authorities, in order to
get rid Of burdensome fellow or troublesome sub
ject, pay what is necessary for such person to
cross the Atlantic. But among the German emi-
grants, great number of whom annually embark
at this port, and who nearly all go to the United
States, there are many persons and families who,
when they have paid for the passage, have little
no money left; and probably many of them, on ar
irving in the United States, quite destitute of
all. The different Governments of Germany are
in general not much pleased with the spirit of en-
igration since several years predominant in Ger
many, and, as is said, try by all means to keep
their subjects at home. The emigrants very Of
ten loudly and bitterly complain that the said Go
vcrnments, before they give to people the permis-
sion to depart put as many obstacles as possible
in the way Of the persons who intend to emf
CRATE. Such emgrants, as | hear, must usually
prove to their Governments that they have money

for their passage; the said Governments being
afraid that the emlgrants may, by travelling, use
lessy spend their little fortune, and then return.
and come on the charge of the community: and
the emgrans are therefore obliged to renounce
and give up all their rights natives Of the
country. After the emigrants have got the per-
mission to emigratc and set out then their former
Governments do not further care for them.


The letters or circulars addressed to the United
States consuls at Hamburg, Munich, Leipsic and
Casse, which were sent to me with the said cir
cular of 7th July last, enclosed in the same enve-
lope, have Immediately been put into the post
office.


| have, sir, the honor to remain, with the
greatest respect your most obedient servant,


For JOSHUA DODGE.
