A SHIPTING POPULATION. - The
number of colored emi rants reported
to have passed throu~h the town of
Chattanoog4-31,000 in the past year
is said to be the official report-going
westward indicates a movement that
will bring important results to both
the SouLhwest and Southeast. The
States from which these freedmen are
migrating are Vitginia, the Carolinas
and Gborgia-mainly the Carolinas,
for Virginia travel goes mostly north
of that point and Geargia south of it.
Of these 31,000, probably 8,000 go
from Virginia, 8,000 from Georgia
and about 10,000 from each of the
Carolinas.
This drain upon the supply of la
bor repeated every year will soon tell
heavily upon the industrial interests
of these Atlantic States, and, as a
large proportion of these are men, not
inappreciably upon the ballot-box.
To counterbalance the former of these
depletions, we must push every means
of encouraging immigration; and, as
to the latter, we must manage to
stand it as best we may.-Guardian.

The tree Trade Movement,
On Wednesday last thirteen hun
dred of the most prominent citizens
of New. York issued a call for a mass
meeting to bo hold on the next evening
in the hall of the open Board of Bro
kers, to yrotest against the present un
just and intolerable tariff legislation of
the country, and to advocate a strictly
revenue measure. The signers of the
call were men of all professions, and
of both political parties. Could we
republish the list, which is headed by
Brown, Brothers & Co., and Duncan,
Sherman & Co., our readers would
see that it comprises an enormous pro
portion of the wealthiebt and most
iufluential citizens of the floancial
and political metropolis of the Conti
neut. This unanimity of sentiment
may be taken as a fair illustration of
thegodral opinion of the country on
a question which is now exciting
popular attention to an unusual de.
gree. 'The meeting was a most im
posing demonstration. Jackson S.
Schultz, Esq., presided, and among
the vice-presidents were such promi
neat gentlemen as Samuel J. Tidden,
John J. Cisco, Wilson G. Hunt, W.
B. Duncan, John Bigolow, Stewart
Brown, Henry Grinnoll, &c. Speech
es were made by William CullauBry
ant, Jackson 8. Schultz, Mahlon
Sands, Wm. Allen Butler and Charles
H. Marshall, and a letter was receiv
from Henry Ward Becolier regretting
that a previous engagement ptovonted
his being present to speak for free
trade.
The following resolutions were read
and adopted:
Resolped, That with the settlement
of the political questions of slavery
and reconstrnotion, it has become the
primary duty of American statesmen
devote themselves to a teform in the to
financial policy of the Federal Gov
ernment.
Resolved, That the impolitio and
nojust tariff system which has been
imposed upon the United States, has
greatly impaired the prosperity of the
country'; has added elmormously to
the burdens necessarily created by thd
wart and !haas. borne. with sInp4qial

industry," it has, in fact, fettered and
crippled the industrial energy of the
nation. It has destroyed the pros
perity of those great branches of
manufacture which were formerly en
gaged in the production of articles for
export to South America, the West
Indies, China and India; it has prov
ed ruinous equally to the wool-grower
and the manufacturer of woollen
goods; it has so Iocreased the cost of
iron, coal and raw materials as to im
pose needless and oppressive burdens
upon all Ameridan hidustry engaged
in manufactures; it has added enor -
mously to the expense of railroad
construction and transportation ; it
thus defrauds American labor by
needless obstruction to the exchange
of its products, and it adds to this
oppression by enhancing the price of
every article which the American la
borer may wish to purchase in 'ex
change for the products of his soil.
Reolved, That the present tariff
has destroyed our shipbuilding inter
este, while our unjust laws prevent
the American shipowner from coinpe
ting with the English, the French and
Germans in the ocean-carrying trade.
Our shipowners need no subsidies,
but they .have a right to ask for the
abolition of legislation which places
them at an irretrievablo disadvantage,
comoparred with their foteign rivals,
by preventing them from .purchasing
ships in the cheapest mnarhet.

Yesterday it was reported by tele
graph that General Leo would pass
down the Charlotte, Columbia and
Augusta railroad, on his way to
Florida. Soon the report spread from
mouth to mouth, and by the time the
train was due, 5 .clock p. a., Col
umbia wos alive with the joyful
tidings. One and all were eager to
look again up on the noble featureo,
the commanding mien, of the mighty
champion of the South-the greatest
inan of the age. Thougi torrents of
rain had been falling all day, and oQn
tinued to fall-and though soaroe a
fourth of the crowd weie enabled to
sceure oonvoyances-yet, when the
train airived, the platform and.
grounds adjoining the depot were.
thronged with a mass of eager and
oxpectant faces.
Col. A. 0. Haskell waited upon the
General, in behalf of the citizensi
and requested his appearanco .upoh:
the platform-the orowd being ar
ranged in a semi-circle around the
hind most platform of the pausenger
coach, no that all might' see. The
noble hero stepped forth, and. was
greeted withstoh a shout of Joyous
recognition as no other living man of
the age could elicit, 'Shoqt after shout
arose, so that the introductory re;
marks by Col. Haskell; appropriate
to the ocoadon, were almost drowned.
"Our first in war and in peace" he
was styled, and upon this the excited
throng burst forth again into prolong
ed hurrahs. The great 'rman modestly
raised his hat and bowed, and re
mained for a minute or two with his
venerable bead -uucovered, then
quietly withdrew Inside the coaoh.
He was, evidentlyj deeply touched
by the manifestations of love and
esteem with which he e grqeted.
The.trombling fip and mpatened eye
spoke the emotions that '4wolled that
breabt-so dauntless in kl'# -so re.
sponsive to expressions of love.

PLEAsURE.-Soeiety is not, and
ought not to be, devoted to serious
concerns. The beneficent Creator of
the universe would not have adapted
human beings to the enjoyment of His
gifts unless He intended that they
should be enjoyed. With the law
which enjoins industry comes the- law
of fruition. Why should the eye be
formed to perceive natural and artifi
cial boAuty if it is not to be used for
that purpose I Why has the capacity
to make instruments capable of emit;
ting sweet sounds been given if such
sounds are not to be heard? Why
should the human structure be eapa
ble of the sweetest melody, and of
graceful action, and of the delightful
expreesion beaming from innocent and
heavenly eountenanees, if the pleas
are from such sources were forbidden
us? Why does the grape ripen, the
silk.wori, the annual fleece return,
the diamond sparkle, the marble yield
to the chisel, and the canvas catch
and preserve the inspiration of genius,
but to awaken piuman desire,. animate
industfy, andi reward with frtitio'n1
It is the excess of and the abuse
~which is forbidden.

The Faiifield Hereld of the 16th

above heading, delit es the status of
the Laurensville lrald, and summa
rily disposes of its philosophy.
Our cutemporory writes well and
elaborately in advocacy of a conserva
tive Republican party. We think his
logio the very reverno of "hard horse
sense.' There is no such party
theroecan be non. American Repab
lioanism is Radicalism, and It is a
contradiction of teras to say conser.
vative Radicalism. The one is the
antipodes.of the other. Radioalism,
or Republicanism, has its degrees of
intensty-just 'us you have a Thad'
Stevons and a Bleu Butler, *ho are
dyed enore deeply, more thoroughly
iusnaersed than'tbeir fellows. Thus
wre 9 the positivo, comparitive and
superliiye degrees a politics as in
the foris of -speech. This Third Para
ty, or Conservative Republicanism, is
simply Radicalism in the. second or
comparative degree. The imp's paw
peeps through, however. The voters
who elected Grant are Republicans,
who say they wiat "peace," but Sum
ner wants confiscation, and a clear
wipe out of the Southern white race ;
and yet, neverthelebs, is a Republican
in the same ship with the former, and

According to the able report <A
Col. John B. Palmer, of South Caro.
lina, which was ordered to be printed
with the proceedings of the last Con.
miercial Convention, recently held in
Louisville, Ky., the Southern manu.
facturers can now make yarn cheoper
than those North by Do. upon each
pound of manufactured cotton. Yarns
can be manufactured and delivered in
Europe at 41c. cheaper than the cot.
tin can be exported and manufactured
in Liverpool or. elsewhere. Thes<
statements are supported by fgures
and minute statistics as to the price
of wood, labor, cotton, and by actual
showing of books in different facto
ries. Au ordinary crop of cotton is
worth to the. South . $225. 000,000.
Were this-cotton crop, however, man.
ufactured.into yarn, it would give the
South $100,000,000 morb'of revenue.
As the matter now stands, the South
has only 199,772 spindles, where the
Northhas .5,848,477. Were the
whole crop manufactured here, it
wou,1'ay t!teiabotetg, ablefly wo
men and ohildren, $36)000,000. It
would pay this sum to theolass that
are ordinarily .non-producers. Spin.
ning is comparatively simple, and but
little Northern capital is invostcd In
this pritnary oeratiou. It is in the
odriiplioated labo- of waving, dyeing,
etc., that the heavy demand for copi
tal begins. Were these operations
performed, as they will be some day
the amount of wages paid and labor
ers employed would be immensely in
creaseda Col. Palmer's suggestion is
that the property holders and planters
of the South band together and occu
py the field with t'eir own factories
and s ladles. Once these are esta'
lished, his proposition is to ship direct
for Europe, and drive other yarns
from the market. The cost of a
spinnirg-toill, giving employ ment to
ejgby-seven operatives, and consum.
ing 887 bales, ought to be $50,000.
T~he esthnated not profits of such *a
factory, at Northern prices, would be
$117,748. The foregoing statisties are
endorsed by. F. Cogin, Superintend*
ont of the Augusta Factory, and'that
they deservo conuIderation, there can

The Oadetship Eales-A Story of a Crary
Miller.
The plea of Mr. Whittemore, ar
gued So disastrously to his client by
General Butler, that the cadet iuon'y
all went to the poor, has revived the
old story of the miller who sometime.,
had crazl fits in which he always
imagined himself to ie the Lo.rd
judging the world. On these ocea
sions ho would put oi t paper crown,
ascend a pile of meal bags with great
dignity, and call his neighbors in sue
cession. Tho same ones were always
judged ; and they were millers of his
vicinity.-The first simmoncd was
Hans S chmidt.
"Haos Schmidt shtand oop.-Htaus,
vat is peen your ,ishness in dat old

"I vas a miller, Oh Lort."
"Vas you a joot Wos "
"iVell, von der vater vas low anl
the pihness is pad, 0 Lort. I some
dimes dakes a lectle exdra doles."
"Vell, Hlana, you shall go ofer Tait
der gotes, already yet."
.,.And in succemsion all were tried
and immediately sentenced to go over
to the goats. Last of all the miller
invariably tried himself in the follow
ing style :
"Yatoob Miller, sltand oop. Ya
cob, vat vas your pishness in dat order

"I vas miller, Oh Lort."
"Vas you alvays a joost mon, Ya

"Vell, Oh Lord von do vater vas a

but, Oh Lort, I all do vile givea docs
