iApOE AND IMMIGRATION MEETING
ON MONDAY-.
A-meeting of our citizens, aeeord ihg
to previous announcement, was;
'-held ia tho Court House on Monday!
?Ja8t, for tho purpose of considering
. tho nihinvportatit subjects of labor
and immigration. Dr. J. \V. llearst
'.vras CRlled to tho Chair, and the Rev.
S. Boniest, of Pom aria, Newberry |
district, who was present by in vita-!

gratifying success of which Has been!
snch as to stimulate all kindred enter-1
prises elsewhere. The speaker gave
an interesting reviey of tbo objects!
I of the Society, acu the history of its
* past operations. It was intended to j
"supplement not to supplant colored
labor. Skilled efficient labor was the
crying necessity of the South, to the
importation of which every effort
""i ' ehfcald now be directed. The succors
of the dewberry Society was oncoura^ing.
It had encountered obstacles,
?jind suffered losses; but of the five
;b and red immigrants that it had introduced,
over sixty per cent, had remained?a
potent eloment of material
development, and industrial progress."
,3l0 aitf in this progress?not to make
?onoy for the members?was tbo design
of this Socicty. The cost of th"e
laborer* was some SlG, (to be refunded
Jiy tho laborer,) besides a small fee of
. Mto tho Society, to cover incidental
' Menses. The hiro of tho laborer,
irhcn money wages were paid, was
; jsi'o per month," to bo increased h
,to 813, besides board at $(} per month.
AU of ihis was expensive, and the ox- ,
ponse could not be defrayed under the
old system. But tho labor.was intel- \
tolligent and effective, and would in ,
tlio end be most profitable. We shall j
'not pretend to give even a synopsis |

lhanks was tendered. I

No-organization was attomptcd on ,

which >ve' trust will bear fruit. In

The. President's Message. :
The following is a 8}*nopsis of the '
Message which was rea*J before the
Houses of Congress on Monday last:
"After congratulating tho country
on peace prospects, the President related
that the freo exercise of the ,
elective franchise had been denied to ,
citizens in several places, lately in -re- .
hellion, ami the verdict of the people
thereby reversed. .Referring to the
European war, he spcahs of tho satisfactory
manner in which the protection
of the American Minister at
Paris was extended to German subjects
in France. .Referring
to the proclamation of the
Republic of France, he says that,
should the present struggle result in
attaching tho heart of the French to}
tlio simpler forms of a Republican *
Government, it will be a subject of
still further satisfaction, Tho Ameri#tn
people should not bo indifferent
to tho spread of American political
ideas in a great and highly civilized <
r-onntry like France; that if an op- \
portunjty ft;r interposing tho good >
offices of the United Slates in restor- ^
ing peace shall present itself, that action
will bo heartily take. As to
C-uba, hr says tho condition of the
nsurroction has not matarially chang-. '
?d. He renews his recommendation i
:o annex San Domingo, and Bays bo ]
soon as it is known that the pVoject
s abandoned by tho UnijLed States,
legotiations will be opened b}r some
)f the European powers, for tho pos;oRsession
of the Samana. IIo urges
;nrly action of Congress, and suggests
that by joint resolution of tho
wo houses,-the Executive shall be
inthorized to appoint a commission to
icgotiate a treaty with the autbori
icB of San Domingo, for tlio acquisi- J
ion of that island, and that an appropriation
bo made to defray the extenses
of a commission. The quesion
might then bo determined better
\y the action of tho Senato
in the treaty, or by the action
?f both Houses on a resolution of
innovation, as in the caso of Texas,
le calls the attention of Congress to
ho continuance and extension of the
^e\v Mexican FrnoZono, and to the
?ien-tsin massacre. In regard to the
Uabama claims, ho recommends that
Congress authorize the appointment j
if a commission to take nroofs as to *
1
hcse claims, and that authority be
;iven for their settlement by the J1
Jnited States, so that the Crovorn- ]
nent shall have the ownership of the t
rivato^'laiins aa well'as the respon- si
ible control of all the demands a
gainst Great Britain. Irr regard to p
lie Canadian fisheries, ho complains J
hat the course*of* the Canadian au- tl
lioritics has uot been marked 03* p
iendly feelings, and intimates tli-at
' they should attempt to enforce a 0
crtain act of the Dominion Parlia- Ii
lent, it will bo his duly to take such ft
teps as may be necessary to projet
the interests of theUnitod States
itizcms. Jle asks that power bo c-on-J
'ired upon him to suspend the ope-j \ti?n
oi the laws authorizing the M
ansit of merchandize in bond \\
trough the United States to Canada, \j
nd also to suspend the operation of'.w
ny laws whereby vessels of the Do- c?
linion aro permitted to' enter tho w
alors of tho United States. lie m
Iso eoniplaiiis of the pretensions of
anada to the control of tho navigaon
of the St. Lawrence, and armies
10 importance and right of the UnitJ
States to navigate that river, withU
let or hindrance. With regard to
ic depressed condition of the foreign ^
Hnmerce of the United States, he
so recommends a liberal policy toards
tho Pacific mail hc.tween Cali rnia
and Japan. IIo also reeomisnds.that
measures may bo taken'
) permit American merchants to ft
urclnwo vessels-built abroad, as well ^
) to pnrchaso American ship-build
g. With regard to the currency,
ie President, says the approach to a
iccie basis is very gratifying, but the
stability of the currency is very
('judicial to prosperity. lie thinks I
lotimo has arrived when, by a wise j">d
prudent legislation, Congress
lould look to a policy which would 1 e
ace the currency at par with gold 10
no distant day. With regard to ,
venue reform, ho says if it means ai
keen the revenue down to what is
:cessary for tlio support, of the Gov- =
nmentand payment of interest ori
0 public debt, it has his hearty suprt;
but if it means failure.to proJo
the necessary means to defray
1 expenses of the Government, he. *
opposed to it. Revenue reform, he ^
ys, has not been defined by its adeate6;
it seemed, however, to be
copied as something which was to
pply every man's wants, without
y effort pp his part. [Laughter.] Q
j recommends tho abolition of the
inking privilege, and reform in the
il service, particularly as to the A
>de of appointing snbordinato offi- ?7

The Ninth Census.?Though the j?e
suits of the census of 1870 are not
ly collected, enough has been as taincd
to establish that the popuion
of the United gtates is about
000,000. The New York Post estiites
that the principal change in c},,
3 proportionate political power of ]
? country will be tho transfer of ta
arly one-third of that now held by
iw England to tho States bordering
tho Mississippi valley. Tho Sou- on
Jrn States are saved from tho loss

heart, will make tho negroes keep
their places, and turn South Carolina, p
into a white man's State, by removing g*1
the colored officials and filling the va- a

that Governor Scott can secure,
through the present Legislature, the By

of what may then bo' the most A J
