Our Countrymen abroad.
--Papers at home and abroad concur in stating that there are about three thousand of our fellow-citizens away from their native land.

Suppose the other half of these fashionable emigrants to spend one thousand dollars per annum, and we have $45,000,000. Vast numbers of people on the continent depend on this sum, and that expended by English and Russian travelers, for their support.
