On the contrary, they flocked into tho eltles and beeams carpenters, bricklayera, and potty traders and artisans, The Government thon looked to Germany, England, and Ireland, but the colontéatton of Northern Europeans has met with no greater degree of success than that of Portuguese. In some few set- tlements in the southern part of the Empire some have gone into the fields, but even thera tho’ majority have adopted other branches of industry.
