GREAT MORTALITY AMONG EMIGRANTS, [From ‘he Chicago (11) Free West, July 6.)

We are also informed, from another sontce, that the emigrant cars during the hot weather frequent ee at our depots mt he 80 that at least on of the passer gers cann seats, and are so packed in that in many instances suffocation is unavoida- ble, and the cars are not properly supplied with water and such accommodations as these trains require; and the instance we have alluded to, of the rs lenving the cara on their arrival, and d the heat and putrid water of the ditch, ia evidence that there was a lack of water on that J at least; and that so many. died on one train, seens- to ind'cate a want of acuommodation somewhere.
