ing an agent to visit Washington and attend to
pardons ami the lands seized by tho Frecdmen's

COLUMBIA CORRESPONDENCE.
[Fltoai OU? OWN COERESPOSDEST.]
Coiajm?U, Beptombor IG.
To-day hns been devoted entirely to InuiiuoBs by
ihc Convention. Report followed Report from tlur
permanent Committees, and Resolution after Res
olution was referred to them for consideration.
There was no wasting of time. booansQ nothing
came before the body over which time could he
Tras tod. There was no speech-making, bocanso
there was no business before the Convention on
which the orators could expend their wit, show
their eloquence, or even talk to their dlfibrout con
stituencies. No question came up in a shape in
-which any member could make capital for the Le
gislature, for Congress, or for the United States
Senate; and the consequence was, that the day
was spent in work. It is true, that the considera
tion that it was Saturday, and that tho members,
from a time-honond custom, desired to get away
early on that day, may have had something to do
-with the matter.
On the resolution of Mr. Macbeth, that negroes
be enabled to testify in the courts, there is neces
sarily differences of opinion, and it will probably
give rise to much debate whenever reported hack
-from the committee. All right-minded men feel
that tho negro is not to bo blamed for ihc position
into which he' has been suddenly thrown by the
rapid events of a revolution; and I am sure that
every one will agree that pome method should be
adopted to protect him in his newly acquired po
sition. But what that method should be, is a
proper matter for wide differences of opinion. The
negro, from a protected and weaker class, has
heen mado a competitor?still retaining his phys
ical and mental inferiority?with the white man in
the struggle for bread, and unless a wise and be
neficent systcni of legislation is adopted, lie must
sink under the competition, and the country will
bo deprived of four millions of peasants, whose la
hor is necessary for the present welfare of the
Southern States, and the proportion of loss in this
State will bo greater than in any other. To our
prosperity two things are at present necessary :
that each man should labor sufficiently to provent
pauperism, and that until white babor can be in
troduced from abroad, that tho negro should bo
protected in the enjoyment of the fruits of his la
lior, so that ho may labor with pleasure. I do not
Lelicvo that tho negro can stand long beforo tho
competition with the white man, and I believe that
he must eventually either die out or emigrate.
The Banatory rules adopted and practised by the
United States army in its passage through the
Southern States, ancf tho remarkable health of
that army, seem to hare demonstrated that the
white man can live and labor in malarious dis
tricts.
If this bo true, it will not take many yoars?at
least many in tho life of a nation?to substitute
white labor for black; and as emigration pours in
the negro, like the Indian, must disappear beforo
the white man. This, it seems, must ovontnally
be liia fate; but while ho is with us, justice, hu
manity and self-interest demand that he shonld be
protected in his newly-acquired rights. In what
mannor this can be most wisely* done, is a matter
that demands the gravest consideration. Ho is i
ignorant, stupid, a liar, and not unfrequcntly a 1
thiof, and it may well bo doubted whether bis
ability to givo testimony would servo us much in
arriving at tho truth of the statements of a class
liabitually regardless, if not ignorant, of tho obli
gations of an oath. As betweon themselves, it
would be well that in all civil cases both plaintiff
and defendant should bo hoard as woll as other
witnesses; but as between the negro and tho white
man it m difficult to say what course should bo
adopted. This Govornmont, by tho abolition of
slavery, has bocomo entirely the goTcrnment of the
white man, and tho delegate? of tho peoplo of this
State, in protecting the negro, are bound to take
such mooBures as will not place tho white man in
tho powor of thoBO who have reoently become his
antagonists and competitors in tho atrugglo for
doily support.
If your correspondent reads tho signs correctly
the Senatorial and Congressional cue is being
ground on the grindstone called "tho ' parishes,"
and on the other grindstone colled "popular elec
tions." The chango generally desired through
?befitste could bo effected by .a Constitutional
Cwfojotion; but before euch body c-puhi moot,
Itapresciitativ.* and Senator? tu Congreso would .
have l>ccn elected, ?uni those ou the "auxiotw j
neat" woa?tl ::<?t have shown "their record lo llic i
country." Your correspondent doca uolimpoarhj
the conduct of any gentleman who is a member "!' ;
I bai Convention. Each man has a right to mal:? I
tip liia rooord when ho pleases, and no ono eau '
<l ?bt tho conscientious sincerity of liio opinion*
of those advocating the changes to bo made; lint I
from what your correspondent has soon of Ihr j
members of Uiat Convention, ho would like lo neo j
-mac noch men a? Chancellor Inoi.is ami Judge
W_an__w .sent to tho Sonate, us ho bcllovca that
! the Intercala of tho Ktnle would not only bo nato
?!i their hands, but lie is also credibly informed !
? that tho President, who i.s anxious to restore tho
| Southern States to tlieir political rights, is desi
nnis?to use a. fashionable phrase in politics?of
taking the wind out of the Radical nails, and wishes
tlie .Southern States to aid liim by sending now
men to Washington.
Your fellow-townsman, Jami:s Conner, shows in
the Convention tho same clear head that he lias
always shown at tho bar, and evidences tho briiic
manhood as he has done on previous occasions on
the field of battle. If the North wanted proof of
the sincerity of this State, it could have none
higher than that of a General of tins Confederate
army, who liad lost a leg in tho defence of wlia t
he helicvcd the right, standing with a mutilated
limb, reminding bitu constantly of the baptism of
blood through which we havo passed, and earnest
ly and honestly accepting the result of the war,
and working for the restoration of the State to
bar place in the Federal Union.

Trade in New York.
The following, from the Independent, tells some
facts which will open the eyes of our country
couina:
New York merchants in old limes used to enjoy
two business seasons, one in the spring and the
other in fall, mid-suinmor and mid-winter being
devoted to running about, Mottling up accounts,
ami making preparations for the next season.
Hut the facility O? communication with all parta of
the country has changed the whole business rela
tions of the city and the country, and the busy
svoeon now extends from January to January, i
Out-of-town customers buy moro sparingly, but
liqjroftcner, and the now system is immensely bet
ter lor all parties. Credit is curtailed by it, and
Mu danger of laying in too largo a slock is avoided.
Tor the past two or three years our merchants
have had a busy season all the year round; but
business bas never liefore been so lively in what
used to be the dullest heason of the year, in July
an-l August, as daring the pant two months. The
opening of trade with the South ha? given an im- !
petit? to business which is a surprise to the most
sanguine. The great difficulty with importers and I
jolliers is to keep up their stocks. Most of tho j
goiids imported are sold before they arrive. Extra
steamers are sent out by the Cnnarders to bring !
owr the piles of freight that accumulate in the
warehouses in Liverpool wailing for transporta
tion.
The Bremen, ITamburg and Havre, steamers
stun at Southampton, to ?lick up the freight sent
there from various points of tho continent, and :
frota Manchester, Birmingham, and other inland
manufacturing towns, which cannot bo taken by
the regular lines from Liverpool, while extra
steamers are sent across the Atlantic with cargoes i
from Glasgow. The increase of traffic with the ?
Smith is still more remarkable. There is now
three times the amount of steam tonnage employ- i
cd in the carrying trade between New York aiid '
the South that there was before tho rebellion.
The business of our railways is proportionately
large; there is now more cotton stored in Now
York than was at any time before tho rebellion:
our manufacturera are all fully employed, ana
several new establishments are unable to increase
their business from a lack of labor. An agent for
a Southern house, one day last wool;, went to a
certain jobbing dry goods houso to lili an order,
ami was told that no more goods could be sold
that day, as they had already sold, ninco morning,
three hundred thousand dollars worth, and they
could take no moro orders untij they had packcil
and shipped what they had already sold*. And
this was to a cash customer. Tho order of the
-?resident removing all restrictions from trade
with tho South after tho 1st of September, ha6
given a atill greater impotus to business, for there
were a great many contraband articles which
were greatly needed at tho South that are now
going forward rapidly. So, busy as our merchants
have all been, they arc likely to bo still moro eo
during the next two or three months.
The Western Corn Cnop?Extraordinary
Yield.?An extensive dealer of Illinois informs us
that the corn crop of that State promises an ex
traordinary yield. It is his opinion that tho new
?iroducts will not bring over 25c. per bnehol in the
icld. Tho result is that there in a great demand
for stock hogs, and so scarce are these now that,
apparently, there are none in the country. Yet it
is nia opinion that the next hog crop will bo much
larger than is generally anticipated. Hogs are now
commanding $12 net for butchers' uso. This is
equal to $25 a $30 per head. Tho prico that pork
maintains now would justify $12 net for hogs in
the packing season. High priced hogs and low
priced corn havo raroly failed to result in a full
supply of the former, and it is the opinion of our
informant that this will be realized this season.
Cattlo aro also being bought up in tho same way.
Pastures aro excellent, and stock will require no
feeding until snow comes. Then feed will be
abundant, and the farmers regard it moro profita
bly to fatten cattle than rely upon a market for
grain. In Ohio and Indiana the corn crop also
promises an extraordinary yield, and tho remarks
in regard to Illinois apply, in tho main, to thoso
States. There is very little, doubt that nogs will
open next fall at a liigh figure. Upon this farmer?
rely, and the policy they havo adopted eeoms to
be a wiso ono. It? effect on the interests of the
pork packers is another question.?Cincinnati
Gazette.
-? ? ?
Lahor.?It is really pleaeant to note that ovory
day add? tu the li?t, in this city, of those who are
getting employment of ono kind or other. Build
ings are going up rapidly, and foundations are
being cleared for moro. Tho prospect is bright
ening for the poor whito man, and wo don't know
ono of them who is not anxious to be at work, not
one. Under a broiling sun, with the thermometer
over 100 degrees, this class work high up on walls,
or down deep in foundations, and strive with all
ihetr might to make something wherQwH" to sup
port their families; and yet, some ono in a lecture
dcUvcrcd _nmrn snmn ??National Education Con
vention" in Pennsylvania, aays "the poor whites of
the South arc moro debased and leas diapoaed to
labor than before the war." This ia a miser able
slander, and is in keeping with certain corroapon
dcuco from this city, which wo' aee occasionally,
tho whole aim and object of which is vengeance.
We Touch for it, that what are called "tho poor
whitos of the South" are as industrious and virtu
ous as tho poor whites any where, if not more so.

Rent?_A Richmond letter in the New York ?
Journal of C ?uinioroe, from a --commercial trnv- ?
cUor/'sara that the hi*'h routs for business houses I
in this city is caused l>? "tho anxiety on the part !
of persons to establish Uiomsclvos in business
hero from the West and North," und illiudratcshbi I
view of tho matter by tho following incident, of
which he was a witness:
A gentleman from Chicago called upon a citizen
here who owns a number of dwellings and some
stores. Tho Western mou, aller the customary
courtesies of introduction, smd be hail sc-cn one ;
of his stores which he wnnkl like ici rent. Tho
cltiy.cn asked him what he thought it to lie worth. ;
lie replied, about SWIM) to f2"-0fl a. year. The prop
arty-holder, thinking tho man was joking (ho hav- '
ing rented it previously for $800), said Imi must !
have t'JOOO?to which the Western man replied, '
"I'll take it," and requested a written instrument r
on the spot to bind the agr? emont. i
Tho writer says: "It ni p'*-.-- ibis thai some one
will lind fault with this aet of the landlord, and
may say he was not justified, npon any principle
of morality, to ask more for his property than he
believed it to bo worth. lint, until tho millennium
is ushered in, 1 am inclined to the belief that the"
golden maxim, 'Do unto others as you would la
done unto,' will not be rigidly observed at the
present day."
A Richmond correspondent, dating his letter on
the 23d, says: "Yesterday six Swedes arrived here
by way of New York. They intend starting for
Goochland County, in tho Upper James Vulley.
In tho month of May last, a great number of emi
grants from that country settled in Goochland
County, and they sent to their friends in Europo
such glowing accounts of their present condition
ami future prospects, that those distant Swedes
became infected with the mania of emigration,
sold out their ice-bound farms, and aro on their
way to the land of promise, the Virginia paradise.
The lands they havo "squatted" on have boon
sold on the most favorablo terms to these hard
working men. They pay for the land by instal
ments running over a term of several years, so
that even tho poorest can ultimately become the
proprietors of the land they cultivate."

TnE Newfoundland Fisheries.? Tho Boston
Journal of yesterday says:
Our latest dates from Newfoundland spoak of
improvements in tho fishery prospects of tho isl
and and Labrador, tho accounts recoivod from the
latter place being especially encouraging. Tho
screw steamer Wolf, the pioneer vessel engaged in
the Greenland whale fishery, froni St. Johns, has
returned after an absence of about two months,
with a full fare, roughly valued at eight thousand
pounds. Tho Wolf was engaged in the spring seal
fishery, and was successful at that, and it is
thought that the success that has attended the
first venturo in tho now enterprise will givo her
many companions noxt year. Tho failure for yoars
back of the shore fishery of tho island has caused
merchants to turn their attention to tho bank
fishery, several vcsbcIs having been fitted out for
ite prosecution this year.
