There is considerable of a current of Northern emigration to Virginia and other Southern States. One of the land agencies at Petersburg, Va., report sales to Northern purchasers of about seventy-five farms in that vicinity since May last; and the same house has ob file about seven hundred letters from parties residing in the Northern and' Northwestern States making inquiry about lands, and expressing the desire to find suitable places. Virginia has it in her power to add fifty thousand to her population, and $20,000,000 to her iopit&l next year, from outside sources. the United" States are raising a llmtPfor the purchase of a homestead for General Henry A.

About one thousand dollars will be raised in Richmond, in sums of o,ne to five dollars.

An advertising people are always thrifty. The enterprise and energy that prompt them to posh forward in the race and keep themselves and their business before the eyes of the; world, insure thom against failure. It would bo difficult to point to a single instance of great success in trade that has not been won through the valuable mediam of the advertising columns of the newspaper press. Our most famous houses in eveiy branch of business ,-aretbose which have expended fortunes as advertisers, and persevered until they have forced patronage from the public. The American people are be'gimringto understand these truths, and advertising is now. as much, a necessity ot business * life as are railroads and the telegraph. ?-The House of Representatives at Columbia, aping the styloof its reputable prototype at Washington, lias caused to be printed a roll of its members, setting forth the name, postoffice address -and "profession" of each. An analysis of this singular ^ocument gives us some curious statistics.

We learn that on Saturday last,, our energetic t feHow-citixen, B. F. Rawlinson, Esq., brought to town two bales of new cotton, the first that have appeared in this market. This cotton was not offered for sale hero, but was shipped to Chester on i Monday morning last. ' i On Tuesday^ Mr. Willliam White, of Blairsville, e brought in the third bale, which was purchased by t Mr. Benjamin P. Boyd, at 25 cents. c 1 ' THE CHESTER MASS MEETING. f On Tuesday last, our neighbors in Chester, held t the grand mass meeting of the campaign in this p section of the State. It has never been our fortune v to witness, at any publio display, a larger number t of persons assembled together, more complete arrangements for their comfort, or a finer infcelleetu- G al entertainment offered, than that in Chester on 8 the 15th instant Although many of those invited j, to address the meeting were not present, yet what t was lost in. quantity was fully made up in the qual- y ity of the speeches of the day. n Upon arrival at the grovo where arrangements r bad been made for the exercises of the day, the f savoitf of basted meats and other eatables, at once r assured the immense crowd that the inner-man hod <] been well provided for. And there assembled, were perhaps five thousand people, attracted largely by the name and fame of North Carolina's gifted son? Ex-Governor Z. B. Vanoe?who had promised to t address the meeting. % i h At 11 o'clock, A. M., Gov. Vance, Hon. Ga- s briel Cannon, Col. L. D. Childs, and other distin- t gnished gentlemen, took their seats on the plat- ( form. Gov. Vance was then introduced to the ? assemblage by Maj. W. A. Walker, the Chairman $ of the meeting. It would be injustice to this mag- i nificent effort of Governor Vance to attempt any- c thing like a verbal report of his remarks. For two ii hours and a half he held the assemblage spell bound t by his clear reasoning?interlarded with pertinent t illustrations and lofty flights of powerful eloquence. 1: We felt, at its close, but one regret, and tbat was t that it coold not have been heard by every man, ii woman and child, white and colored, in the land, fc At the conclusion of Gov. Vance's speech, the s * '* ?j i?i twenty-four members, representing all the Districts iu the State. Of this number twenty are classed as white men, of whom only seven are natives. The Convention was largely composed of members c of the-Legislature.. i Congressman Whittemore, as Chairman of the Central Exqqqtive Committee, submitted a report, v This report was referred to a special Committee for a examination. The Committee reported that it had examined the document, and thought it was all 1 right, but regretted that the Chairman had not c been more careful in taking receipts for the money expended by him?$3,400. 1 The Convention appointed a new State Central Executive Committee, of which negro-Senator B. j F. Randolph, of "burnt-district" and hog-stealing 1 feme, is Chairman. The Chairman of the First Congressional District, is J. K. Jiilson; Second t District, J. B. Deuuis; Third District, A. K Boo- c zer; Fourth District, L. Wimbush, the negro Senator from Chester. The Committee is com- 1 posed of about an equal number of whites and ne- i groes. P. J. O'Connell, is named for York; Bar- j uey Burton, (negro) for Chester; D. B. Cannon, for Union; and A. Hudson, (negro) for Lancaster. ( The Electoral- ticket consists of three negroes and ( three white men, as follows: ] For the State at Large?D. ?L Chamberlain and C. J. Stolibrand ; First Congressional District?S. < A. Swails, (negro); Second District?A. J. Ran- < sier, (negro); Third District?B. F. Randolph, < (negro); Fourth District?J. M. Allen. ] The Pltanrix says "the remainder of the session *a8 consumed in hearing an address by the Central t , Committee to the 'eleet-ors' of the State, and in < sundry little displays of Dcmostheuic aspirations, t i by white niggers, brown niggers, molasses candy I colored niggers, and alb-sorts of niggers, the whole i terminating with a corn-shucking shakedown by the j whole company, (without extra charge,) and three 1 cheers for Cant- and Gr&btax.'' i The nominations for Congress were made by the < delegates belonging & the respective Congressional Districts. B. F. Wbittemore, thepresent incura- I bent, is the nominee for the First District; S. L. i Hoge, ex-United States Captain and Associate ] Justice of the Supreme Court elettt; fqr tbethird j < : A. S. Wallace, of York, Collector of lntefnal B?v-f I enue, for the Fourth. In the Second District, Yto i orow<l was invuca 10 me utuies iuuuuu mui ?tu^ i platters of barbecued beef, pork, mutton and I several cart-loads of bread and other eatables. The f barbecue was an entire success. There was an d abundance for all and apparently plenty left to fill 8 the haversacks of a small army. We learn that a there were over seven thousand pounds of meats I on the table, and about the same quantity of bread- t stuffs. e After dinner the crowd re-assembled at the platform, and Hon. Gabriel Cannon, of Spartanburg, was introduced. His speech was able, pertinent, and listened to wltFgreat attention throughout"?~a Just before the dinner was announced, CoL J. P. Thomas, and Gen. J. D. Kennedy arrived from g Columbia on a hand-car, having made extra exertions to attend the meeting. They now occupied f seats on the stage, and Gen. Kennedy was next f presented to the audieuoe. He spoke earnestly p and fluently of the great issues involved in this contest for the Presidency; and his remarks were ti well received and frequently cheered. t Col. J. P. Thomas, at 4 P. M., was the next ii speaker. His speech was in his usual forcible style, and evidently made a good impression on the t cititens. n The chairman then announced that Gov. Vance e and others would address the people at Yorkville, b on the 17th, and at Rock Hill on the 18th instant, d after which the crowd dispersed. v Altogether, the Chester mass meeting was a success. There was at onetime, during the day,.a dis- v turbance created by some intoxicated white per- f sons, but quiet was soon restored and the casual- o ties were slight. s If everybody had not been of the same way of ti thinking already, we might expect happy results I ftnm such a meetinv as this. It is, however, a a pity that so much eloquence and effort should be ii expended upon an audience already oonvinoed of I the facts argued. r 1 I REPUBLICAN CONVENTIONS. g In Columbia,, lost week, the Republicans held P -two Conventions. One was designated as the State Republican Convention, composed of delegates ] from all parts of the State to choose Presidential J Electors and organize for the Presidential cam- j paign. The other was a Congressional nominating r Convention, to select candidates for Congress. - ] An organization of the State Convention was ef- ] fected by calliug R. B.

The Bill "al }ws plain tiffe in all causes to obtain judgments in , he manner prescribed by law, reserving to the den i endaots the right to claim exemption from levy and ale in all cases in which judgments are obtained i in debts contracted prior to May, 1865; provided ( he defendant annually-pays one-third the entire J .mount of the judgment with interest, and pro- s ided farther, that upon the fajlure-of the defend- 1 nt to make such payments, he shall forfeit all 1 hum tq Such exemption but in nq cqap shall such .1 Ihims be collected in less than twelve months after 1 be passage of the Act 'b ; .rOn Wednesday, of J^st vjreck, a Bill, to give State j id to the.Blue BidgeB^ilro^d was under discusion, and was opposed hy no Ipsa a personage than ] he member from York?Dr. J.

From c 1 report in. the Courier, the discussion seems to tave beep quite racy, and as Neagle has a reputa- 1 ion among our readers, we give the Courier's. ac- ( ounjb.of-tho.liffniti i Plue Ridge BUI passed the Senate yester- f lay without debate, but in the Hpuse encountered t ipppsiiion from no less a distinguished source .thau i he "Great ''Financial Light" of the State; Mr. i Comptroller-General Neagle.

Roftecrans had free and unreserved conferences with these gentlemen -with referende to the political condition of the country. Becoming sattk?t Via Tumnla nfthA SnntVi wprfl kainir nrm jtantly misrepresented for partisan purposes, he iddreased a letter to General Lee, with the view of Hoenring a written exposition of the sentiments, vishes and purposes of the Southern people, as ieflected through theee representative men. ' . Gem-Lee, recognizingthe propriety of the course iuggested by General Rosecraris,~in connection with the gdritleroeo referred to, prepared a res- i Donse, to: which is appended the names of the rrominent Southerners who were present The rpade we have at command this week, will not alow us to give the letter of Gen. Rosecrana in full, rot will remark that in the foregoing introduction, re present it in substance. The following is the ?ply to Gen. Rosecrans' letter: . 1 ;. WirrrB Sulphur Springs, West y?i, >i. . August 26, 1868. , J. Qrna cd rrrl have had the honor to receive your etter of this date, and .in. accordance with your mggestion I have consulted vjrith i number ofgenlernen firtmfi the8crtrlb, in whose judgment I' bave tonfided, and: who are well acquainted* with the juhhe amt^raentsoftheiT respective States., They iave kindiy,consented to ignite with me in replying oyour ocmpjunication, and their names . wjJi he -s quod with my owrfappended to thisariswer.' With this explanation we'proceed to give'yoti 'a ajidid s( atemerft O'fwhat we; befieve to be the seniment of the Soutbem peoplo in regard to the sab- ! ebt <o which you.refer. : . . . 3 Whatever .qpinion may have prevailed in the : last in regard-to Africau slav.m qr the right of a , State to sececle froapthe Union, w'e believe we ?x- , ftess thb altpdsturianimbhs judgment of the Southirn people when We aedfore that they consider that hose questions were decided by the war, and. that tie their intention, in good faith, to abide by that 1 lecision. At the.qloso of the war the Southern , ieople laid down theic arms, and sought to resume heir former relations with the United Stated Govrn: i*>;r. ' Throligh their State Conventions they abolished kvenr and annidied their ordinances of secession; tod they returned tq.fheir peaceful pursuits with l sincere purpose to fulfil thtsir duties under the Constitution of the TTnited S totes, whjch they Bad Worn to support" ' If their action in these' particliars had been met in a spirit df frnhkness and sordiahty, we believe that ere this old srrititions roald hare passed away, and the wounds inflicted >y the war would ip a great measure have besen ?eale<]. As far as we are advised, the people of he South entertain no unfriendly feeling toward he Government of the United States, but they ioffipiaiu that their righto under the Constitution ' iro withheld from them iu the administration hereof .; , , The idea that the Southern people arejfiostile to be negroes, and would oppress them 1f it were in heir power to do so, is entirely unfounded. They lave grown up iu our uiidat, and we have been tccustomed, from-our childhood, to look upon them ?ith kiudoess. The change in the relations of the ' wo races has wrought no chouge in our feeling to- 1 vardthem. They still constitute the important )art bf'out laboring population. Without1 theft abor the lands of the South would be comparativey unproductive. Without the employment which southern agriculture affords, they would be destitute of the meaus of subsistence,, and become paiijers, dependent upon public bbunty.' Self-interest, even it there were no higher mo- ' ives. would, therefore, prompt the whites of the 5outn to oxtend to the negroes care and protection. Che important fact that tbe two races are, ander sxi sting circumstances, necessary to each other, is jradualiy becomiug apparent to both, and we beieve,but for the influence exerted to stir up the pas lion? of th'fe negroes, the relations of the two races vould soe'n adjust themselves on a basis of landless and mutual ad vantage. : It is true that the people of the South, together tfith the people of the North and West, are for ibvious, reasons opposed to any system, of laws '! vhich would place the political power of the coutt ry in the hands bf the uegrflLiace, But the onpolition springs'from no feeKng oFenmifcy, but from i deep-seated convict ion that atpresent the negroes lave neither the intelligence;por the qualifications vhich are necessary to mak# them safedeposito les of political tpower* i. oey( wouia lnevimuiy oer ?me the victims of. demagogues, who, for selfish jurposes. would mislead; them, to the serious inU17 of the public. : : ( The great want of the South is peace. The peo)le earnestly desire tranquility and the restoration 1 >f the tJnioh. They deprecate disorder and excito nent, as the most serious obstacle' to their pros- 1 ierity. They ask a restoration of their rights under the Constitution. They desire relief from oppressive nisrule. Above all, they look to their countrymen ! "or the establishment in the Southern States of 1 hat which has justly been regarded as the birthight of everv Americapf-the right of self-governnent. Establish theseon a firm basis, and wecan afely promise,, on behalf the Southern people, hat they will faithfully, obey the Constitution and aws of the United States, treat the negroes with ; undness and huniauityj and fulfill every duty in:umbent on peaceful citizens loyal to the Constituion of their country. ; ; Wc believe the abovc contains a succinct reply to ;he general topics embraced in your letter, and we venture to say, On behalf of the Southern people md.of the.oflkere and soldiers of the late Confedirate| army,, that they mil concur in all the sentiuerits which we have expressed. Appreciating the patriotic motives which have jrorupted your letter, and reciprocating your exiretiiowi of kind regard, we have the honor to be, rery respectfully and truly, : K. E. LEE,'Virginia.
