Of course, as under our present State Government we canoot be justified in hoping that many immigrants will seek homes in South Carolina, still it is a great fact that many ol our grievances could be rem edied hy an increase of intelligent white population of the State; and until this is done we cannot tee that there will ever be a different state of thing* for South Carolina. The annexed extract from the New York World on this subject contains more prac* lical, sound sense than any that we have noticed recently and should be read and pondered : Immigration to the South.?There is hard 1 y a Southern paper which we look over thai lias not something to say about immigration to the Southern States; some complain bitterly that they are belied and traduced by agents who urge the immigrant to aeeli the fertile fields of the West. Now we most earnestly wish the South the greatest prosperity, yet we feel constrained to say some plain things to the people of that section. Are they not in lault themselveal Are they not calling on Ilercules and not putting their own shoulders to the wheel! Is there a single Southern State that hsi ever had published in a foreign language an account of her soil and climate which could be a guide to the stranger I Not one, It is true euch a pamphlet has been published about Texas, but it was a private enterprise. There is not a tingle one which L?. - .Awnlaslw aaasa^lUl aoaint in Vow -g, ? York or Europo to give information to any immigrant or to disabuse their mioda. Not a single railroad in the South hae any such agent. On the other hand the Western States and roads have men of intelligence everywhere fur that purpose. Again, the West has vast qnantities ol land lo be had by merely complying with the Homestead law, or for $1.21* to $'2.50 per aere. Only three States In the South have any such land; but in the others vast tracts are owned by individuals who have not the labor or fioaooial means lo work a tenth of their teres, Has there been any action on their part wherehy their spare acres might be settled?have these landed lords proposed to divide their tracts and sell every alternate 100 or 200 acres at moderate rales and on long credit? On the coutiary, wheo any one who thought of buying came among them, they put the highest price on the land, and have acted au if their only desire was to Bell out for a fortune and retire upon it to a life of ease. We admit there are honorable exceptions; hot the crcnerft! rule has been one in direct contrast of the liberal policy which has populated the West aud every year trebles the valae of he^ lands. Again, has there been apy legislation on the part of the South to encourage immigrants? Alabama alone has passed laws which would Induce capitalists to seek her borders. But there is a nroedy, and it Is not too late to apply it. First, the States should cause accurate statistical information of soil, climate, and products, to be printed in at least two foreign languages and distributed over Kurope. Each State should have some depository or agency in New York where specimens of her products, minerals, and agriculture, might bs seen, nnd in Europe a travelling agent to distribute circulars and give Intormstloo. We need not add that these should be selected with great care; an excellent political stump orator might make but a poor iminigraot agent ? This done, the rest remains willi the peo? pic themselves. If they sell them at modcrate rates, and sra disposed to welcome the stranger, their spare lands will soon be occupied. The principle upon which they must act is to acoept the stranger as a get...' tlrmet until he p*p*?* himeelMhe revere#. We Veil rfpeaMr ooeof tbobeet men It Georgia told tie:" Sir, you cannot expect * ae to vldt Ibeee people wHe eome ecoonj u? and receive them into our Kouaee until ' lh?f here IVred h?r for yet re end wd prove them."

Perry, under the impression that he had been elected to a seal in Congress from thia District, and although he should have enjoyed ihnt distinction, he was allowed to suffer defeat through the indifference of the white voters: "Ex-Governor Perry.?The returns of the ' South Carolina election indioate the cheering fact that Ex Governor Perry, the antiRadical nominee for Congress in the Fourth District, is elected. The Radical majority in this district at the last Congressional election was 8,304, and if Mr. Perry be really successful there is double reason for congratulation : first, that we are to have for the first time sinoe I860 an honest man and a gentleman in Congress from South Carolina; and second, that aa the same causes op{ crating in hie district must hare been at work in tbe others the disintegration of the | Radical party throughout the State has fair, begun. So long aa it stood intact, dominating unfortunate South Carolina to ita , remotest corner with aa unbroken negro , majority of 80,000, there was no chance for , suoh a man as Ex-Governor l*erry ; and yet of all men he should have represented the State, and oould. in representing It, have been most acceptable to the North. Alone, with we believe but one exception among the public men of the Palmetto State, he ' withstood secession, and it is yet a renn-m brance in many men's miude how dauotlesaly he ohampioned the cause of the Uoioo at a time when that sort of advooaey in' volved not alone contumely and iueult, but ' the wrenching away of oneself from oue'a 1 own people. As the Governor would rise ' to plead even in exiremit against secession the sneer and scowl ran round the chant1 her, and more than once upon adjourns 1 ment of the convention's daily session the boys and riff raff of the galleries threw fi nil-rinds and nutshells and other refuse on the one man who forbade a unanimous ' secession. On the triumph of the Union cause it seems aa if this man should have 1 had some recognition of his devotion, but ' the reconstruction scheme of Congress 1 trampled bim down in the tnira under the ' negro's foot as remorselessly as it did Gen. Wade liampton, Senator Chestnut aod Congressman Keitt. It iaonly by "rebel" votes that South Carolina's greatest Unionist seems assured a seat in Congress to-day." Death of Psabody A. Morse, tr, The painful intelligence of the death of this promising young gentleman has reached us by a private letter from his mother, ad* dressed to the former editor of the EnUr? prist. This community will profoundly ympnijiiie wiin ma distressed family of ' the deceased. Col. O. W. MobsH was for tnany year#, during and since the war, oue of (he prominent citiaena of Greenville, aod 1 'here,as the letter truly states, I'kabodt had maoy friends, to whom he was much at' Inched, and who reciprocated hla feelings. We cftn sincerely adopt the expressions of the letter of lira Moses as portraying as they do Juat and appropriate freliogs. It does seem so out of the order of nature that the child aliould go first, lie who should be the prop and stay of hia parents. So young, so handsome, full of hope, and of such a joyous, loving, generous nature, with every thing to make life bright and smiling, he is out down in the first blush of manhood.? His end wee eslm and peaceful. He wes resigned end fully prepared to meet his God, confident of the future, perfect in hope and trust. In his death, as in his life, he forgot self, his anxiety was for us who are ao desolate; for hia child, wife and little boy, no rotirmer escaped him, be was resigned to the will of Ood. He died from brain fever, at the residanee of hia motherio law, in the oity of Naehitoehes, La , Heptembcr 20, 1872, aged twenty-three years. The Horsa Epidemic North. The Northern people have an unfortunate and distressing visitation in the terrible and unaccountable horse epidemic raging there. It is called the "Epizootic," if anybody knows what that is It it sweeping everything, from thoroughbred to dray horses It began op In Northern New York, and steadily traveled down the Hudson river. It has spread like the cholera among men. It has gotten outof New York and appears to ba raging In other Slatea. Seven thousand horses ware stricken down in New York city ia one day. It ia ! a sort of catarrhal faver. Horses in good health begin to eoogh, and discharge at the nostrils. Some claim that Ihe disease ia in ihe atmosphere. The trceim-nt it to put the horses in ocmfortabla stable a, |b? i them vat food ind war at food, 4pp'y Uoi Mlti to tha throat, aod <h tar and bella; doaa, chlorate of potash, muriate of amaoI ule or byposelphite of aoda. i Tha maUar la cxereiste^ tha Hortharo i poopla graally.

A Fire?One whioh catno near being disastrous, broke out yesterday, between 12 aud 1 o'clock, in the dwelling bouae occupied by Mr. F. J. Bobtice. It originated from a tove-plpe, which ottered thoohimney through an aperture, opened by a former occupant of tbo house, ao near the ceiling as to allow the fire, unusually kindled by the high wind then blowing, to take hold on the dry lathes and other wood-work immediately above. Its i timely discovery by a colored man named Aaron Moor*, and hia praiaewortby efforts, principally, in ita extinction, prevented the destruction of the house, which, a few minutes lator, would have been inevitable. No gene-, ral alarm was given. The bou?e of Mr. Thos. Briar, located in the northeastern portion of the City, near the Episcopal Church, also caught fire, on Tuesday last, and was consumed. We call the particular attention of all parties visiting Columbia during the Fair week, to the new advertisement of Mr. O.EOaus Kaldwat, who haa always on hand the choicest Winee and the very best Lager to be had in the Cnpital. His line of Groceries is very carefully selected, and he keeps up with tho wants of the public- You can't fail to find him, as his house is situated nest door to the National Hotel, in sight of the Depot. John D. Ricks, convicted at the Mareh term of the United States Court of violats ing the internal revenue laws, and sentenced to one year's imprisonment in the jail at Greenville, has been unconditionally pardoned by President Grant. The Columbia Union, (Republican,) of the 26th inst., thus speaks of two of our citizens : Mr. A. Blythe has been elected Solicitor of the Eighth Judicial Circuit, by a majority of over 607. Mr. Blythe is of the firm of Wm, E. Earle <fc Co., Attorneys at Law, Greenville?young Blackstones, who have ever done credit to the State, so far as theff profession and private lives are concerned. Real Estate?Dr. Johm F. DorRoii has purchased the house and lot of Mr. A. SMilled, located on Pendleton Street, for* marly the property of Rev. S. 8. GaLltabdi for $1,700, cash. The purchaser will occupy it at an early day. Qbebnyillk Premiums at DisTawt Fairs ? At lbs late Cotton States Mechanics and AgriculU ral Fair Association, held at Augusts, Oeorgia, Messrs. Gowkr, Cox dc MabBlBT, of this City, were awarded first premiums oo the following articles, on ex* hibition > West's Guano Distributer. Best Wagon Hubs. These articles also took premiums at the Georgia State Fair at Atlanta, a few days since, and also at the Fair of the Catolioas, at Charlotte, IT. C. Messrs. GoWeb, Mills A Co., likewise took premiums for Best Brogan Shoes. At all of the above Fairs. These are South Carolina enterprises, and our State press should take pride in encouraging then. The last Marlboro' Tiraea reports as foW lows: Ope night last week, the irin house of Mr. J, C. Dunbar waa consumed, together wi'-h about ten bales of cotton. Cause of lire, we learn, was the overturning of a burning candle In a quantity of loose cotton. Also, on M*j 7,. A. Drake's plantation, one day last week, a dwelling house was consumed and two eolored children perished in the flames. In the new Legislature of this State, recently elected, there are?Regular Radicals 80, Bolters 19, Conserratiree 24, Conservative gain 11. In joijl assembly?

Something to I* Than/nl for.?Among the result* of the re* cent State election, thero is one at leaat which wo can bail as a substantial gain, and which encourages the hope that the redemption ot the State from the evils that afflict her may not, after ail, ho far off. By an examination of the list of members eleot of the General Assembly, it will bo seen that thero is a marked improvement in the composition of that body, the Conservatives having made respect able gains in each of the houses. In the Senate of last year, thero wcro only fivo Conservatives, and one of thorn, Mr. Joel Foster, ol Spartanburg, by his removal from the State during the session, reduced the number to fouri which, in such a body, proved a totally inefficient minority. Next wii ter, however, there will he eight staunch Conservatives in th< Senate to oppose the twenty five Republican members; and eight good men can do much toward preventing tho> consummation of had measures, and in distributing judiciously and honestly the minor offices in theij respective counties. In lb- TTn.i.o ~t T?? 1-<;? ? ?-* M"wuv VI Atcpicovuinkivcs, 11 WHICH body every scheme for plundering the people must originate, there will be twentyfour Conservatives, where (here were but twelve last wioter. Thus the little band, to whom the taxpayers of the State have a right to look with confidence for the protection of their interests, has actually been doubled in numerical strength. Nor must it be forgotten that emoag our legislators elect are inolnded strong men lika W. H. Wallaco, of Union, Gabriel Cannon, of Spartanburg, Henry A Meefce, of Lexington, and others, whose voices, in all that concerns the public w^al, are aure to be heard and heeded, when their mere votes might avail little. All honor to the counties that hare been able to do thus much for the salvation of South Carolina?Charleeton New Barnum, the Great Showman, to Vteit the South?We have received a circular from P. T. Dau.hum, the great showman, s'.ating that he will visit the principsl towns in the South during the wiuter of l872-'78. His immense Show consists of a great National Museum, Menagerie, Caravan and Hippodrome combined. An exhibition which is as absolutely Novel, Colossal, Exhaustive and Bewilderingly Various as money and experience can make it, and which he transports through the country by mean* of nearly 100b men and horses. It is larger and mors comprehensive than anv Si* Shows on Earth. The Museum collection, besides containing a Whale, nearly 100 feet long, consists of 100,000 Curiosities, including rare and unique speeimona in every depart ment of Natural History, Works of Art, numaruus, ingenious aad expensive Medianleal Human Figures and Automatons, made in Paris at an almost fabulous eoat, as well as liviog Human Phaoornena ; thua making np a Marvelous Combination ouch aa gate his great New York Museum so rouoh sale* brity for thirty years.
