The cultivation of sugar in the Sandwich Ialan
seems to have been found extremely profitab?
The export, which was 8,005,603 pounds in 18C
and 5,262,112 pounds in 1863, advanced to 10,414,4
pounds in 1864. New plantations are being coi
stantly started, and the shipments this year ai
expected to bo far larger than the last, -while tl
area- of land still' untouched by cultivation, bt
capable of producing sugar, is very large.

The London Times, of the 2d inst., in referring tc
NAPOLEON'S New Years' speech, says : "The minc
whioh guides events must have some foreknowl?
edge of what a twelve-month may bring about.
Seven years ago a few worde spoken to the Ambas?
sador of a mighty monarch portended the loss ol
the finest province in his master's Empire. This
year the hopes and wishes of NAPOLEON for peace
ought to be equivalent to a guarantee of its con?
tinuance.
FORNEY says pleasantly of the choice of CAME?
RON for the Senatorship: "There has never been
so studied a violation of public sentiment and
public decency as this nomination." That may be
true, though considering the treatment public sen?
timent and public decency have bad at the hands
of the Radicals for the last five years, it is a bold
word. But a ' Washington dispatch, of the same
date with this effusion ol patriotic pus, tell us that
"the selection of CAMERON is regarded as a cer?
tain indication that FOBNEY will bo turned out of
bis Secretaryship of the Senate." Hence these
tears.

The Washington Correspondent of tbe Baltimore
Corette, under date January 17, says : "Governor
ORR is here on business connected with South Ca?
rolina, among other things immigration to that
State and the relief of postmasters who had either
made returns to the Federal Government authori?
ties, which miscarried, or to tho Confederate au?
thorities, which are ignored, and who are now har?
assed by Government claims. Governor ORR is
not in favor of the adoption of the Constitutional
Amendment by South Carolina, or by any other
State, but favors graceful submission to anything
.'the conquerors" demand. He jocularly thinks
territorialization would be welcomed as an econo?
mical measure.
The Washington letter of the Baltimore Gazette
says: "CHARLES O'CONOR and J. G. SHEA, Esqs.,

HORACE GREELEY ia also here. It is further known
. that Mr. GREELEY had an interview with the Presi?
dent yesterday, and had interviews with Mr. DAVIS'
<?un?el thiB morning. From these facta the quid
have conjectured that the State prisoner at
JFortress Monroe is about either to be released on
parole or bail, or that his case is on tho eve of
being disposed of in some way; and it must be

MONDAY MORNING, JANUARY 21,18G7.
TUS QUESTION OF LABOR.
Population is wealth, and healthy muscle tho
main pro? of society. While the second, the first
and tho fourth estate aro all essential to tho well?
being of the body politic, they are mero drones aH
compared with the thirdsstate, tho bone andsinow
of the land, the laboringdass. The producer is
tho true Atlas who supports tho world. Wo claim
no originality foi these views, well aware that they
aro as old as society, and cooval with reason. Rut
truchs, because of their vory familiarity, aro often
undervalued, or allowed to pass by unheeded, and
it ia salutary on occasions to seize the file and
scrape off tho rust of age, and realize for ourselves
that ideas aro not worthless, simply because they
aro old.
For centuries the negro has beon tho agricultu?
ral laborer of those States. True, there have boen
all along white operatives also, both on their own
account and in the employment of others, but in
tho sum total of tho working population of tho
Southern States, tho latter merely represented an
uncppreciable fraction. While the white race filled
all the varied positions in life, tho negro, nearly
oqu llinfr it in number-in some States the prepon?
derating element-was almost exclusively engaged
in tillirg the soil. This was considered his special
vo cation; he was admirably adapted for it, and did
his work well. By hiB labor these States attained
a proud pre-eminonce among the nations of the
earth as tho producers of several valuable staples,
which, from long use, have become indispensable
to the civilized world. The cotton, Bugar, rice and
tobacco, the very props of the world's commerce,
were the products almost ordusively of negro la?
bor. The system had been brought to great per?
fection, and the autocrats of trade at distant
contres could count with all but certainty on the
extent of a Southern crop of cotton or tobacco;
tho prcpitiousno88 of the season being the only
contingency.
This Bystem, however, that was found to work so
woll, has been destroyed. Slavery, the condition
of our laborers, was found incompatible with "tho
Bnirit of the age,"-not, we honestly and sincerely
believe, because it was not adapted to the negro,
or because proven to have been unjust to him ; not
because it haa been shewn that tho negro WBB not
as comfortable or as contented under it aa the pea?
santry of any cher age or country. No, theso
reasons all weighed as nothing. Tho abolition of
slavery was demanded because our enemies could
not endure the galling idea of the Southern plau?
ter being bettor off than themselves. Whether or
not his condition was thus enviable is not to tho
present purpose. Slavery fell nuder tho ban of
modern philanthropy, tho greatest of tyrants and
blindest uf bigots. With true Mahommodan zeal,
she called on uro and sword as her ministers, and J
j saw her efforts rewarded with tho same gratifying
success as the early apostles of the Islam.
Slavery ia dead, Requiescat in pace ; but tho ne?
groes are left, so the land they were wout to culti?
vate, and BO aro the planters, under whose direc?
tion they used to work. Thus we find all tho factors
still present, their mutual relation only changed.
In order to Uve, people must eat, and in order to
eat they must work-be they black or be they
white; and how to work to advantage, under the
new order nf things, is now tho great problom of
these States. This question is of vital importance
to the farmer, the mechanic, tho merchant, the
banker, and the politician,-for upon its proper
solution depends our very existonse. Whether or
not our Representatives shall be permitted to tako
their Beato in Congross; whether tho "PrpRulnnt.
shall be impeached, and thc Supremo Court reor?
ganized; whether our present Stato government
shall bo subverted and giva placo to territorial
rule, all these are questions of thc greatest signifi?
cance to us, but tiley yield, in tho universality of
their application, ns well as in the degree of in?
trinsic importance to . tho great question of meat
and bread. How can thc white mun and the negro
best work together, cultivate tho land, and pro?
duce food for the people ?
Tho problem is complicate and difficult, but not
new. Slavery has been abolished in other coun?
tries (though perhaps nowhere with the Bimo
suddenness and recklessness to consequences as
was tho case here), and a chaos, as fur as regards
social economy, has been thc result in every
instance. It is ono of those events in the narration
of which history cannot bo said to bc philosophy
teaching by oxnmple. A repetition of instances
affords us no useful experience. The evil in every
case has had to work its own unaided cure. Wo
believe that, considering all the circumstances, wo
have nothing to complain of. Our citizens have
become reconciled to the "new order," at least as
much so as could bo reasonably expected. WTien
the war Aras at aa end w.; lost but little time in
idle regrets and vain repinings, but took a survey
of what little was left, determined to make that
little more
The freedmen also, on tho whole, did very well
last year. As yet no sinister influences had been
brouurht to boar upon them. With vory few ex?
ceptions, they felt an affection, a strong heredi?
tary attachment to their lato masters; to their
cabin on the old plantation, and to all tho thou?
sand objects that throw an endearing charm around
a liome. Very naturally they had more confidence
in their masters, whom they had known all their
lives, than in tho strange, volunteer philanthrope
who forced his benevolence upon them. There
was accordingly little difficulty in making "con?
tracts" for 18CG.
But during the past yoar things changed very
much. There wero in the first instance twelve
months of hard work,-and the African loves not
work more than the individuals of other races,-ho
had been told that he was free, why should he still
have to work so hard and so steadily ? H?B wages |
was to consist in a share of tho crop, and ho*
naturally considered himself joint proprietor to
the extent of his share, and therefore at liberty to
do that which he listed with his own, to work or
not as he felt inclined. The season was bad, and
seeing but vttla prospect of making a good crop
he became discouraged, careless of his own as of
his employer's interest. Disputes, bickerings,
quarrels and law suits were the consequence The
Freedmen's Bureau, having its ramifications in
every part of the country, necessarily exercised an
injurious influence upon the labor of the Stato.
No matter how just its agents, and how much dis?
posed to do ail in their power to preserve harmony
and good order between tho two races, their mere
presence was a standing incentivo to tho ignorant
or indolent nogro to carry his grievances,-real or
imaginary,-to tho Bureau.
We will not say that tho freedmen only have
been to blame in all such disputes. Far from it.
We have reason to believe that there aro bad men
among ns as elsewhere, and that isolated instances
there have been where planters have not disdained
to take advantage of the ignoranco of tho opera?
tive, and have attempted to overreach him. Wo
ire ashamed to be compelled to confess to tho
sxistence of such cases; but we do not believe
lhere are more such here than in Ireland, France,
jcrmany, or New England, where all such differ
mccs aro adjusted by tho ordinary magistracy of
ixe land.
The disputes alluded to, the low wages offered,
md the scarcity of breadstufis in the up-country
>f our State, a natural love of change and a child
ah credulity to El Dorado promises, of late has
nduced a largo emigration of freedmen from this
?tate to Florida, Mississippi and Texas. Wo re?
gret to see it on our own account, and still more
n theirH. We need their labor, they our protec
ion. In their case, as in ours, we strenuously
elievo that civil ie better than military profcec
ion. We have reason to bolieve that this emigra?
ron is largely owing to misrepresentations mado
) these ignorant and credulous creatures. There
i work enough hero for them all; and if there is
ot a sufficiency of corn in the immediate neigh
orhood where they have been residing, let them
Dme to the seaboard. Labor is in great demand
ri the Sea Islands, and can be profitably used
1?re. Provisions aro hero in plenty, or can be
tsily procured. There is moro uvaiiable capital
ere., and "hands" to any reasonable extent can
nd employment.
Ther9 ?B practical wisdom iu the old adago, that
it is better to enduro tho ills wo have, than fly to
others we know not of. Human nature ia every?
where tho samo; mon aro the same in Florida and
in ToxaB as in South Carolina. And before taking
passago for the unknown country, we would sug?
gest that tho freedmen should consider whether
they could not do better among tho people they
have known all their lives, and in thc country,
where all their friends and relatives roaido, than
by going to strangers, in a strange land.
Wo shall advert to tho eubject again at au early
date.
Mn. STEVENS' BILL.-We print to-day tho Bill of
Mr. THADDEUS STEVENS, proposing the establish?
ment of "Republican Governments in the lately
rebellious Statea,"-tho meaning of which is to
upaot our present State Governments and estab?
lish now ones, baaed upon universal suffrage and
"groat moral ideas." Quita a debate took place in
thc House of Representatives on Wednesday upon
this Bill, which seems to have developed a split in
the Radical ranks. Mr. BINOHAM, of Ohio, ono of
the leading Radicals of the Houso, denounced the
Billas one for destruction, iuatoad of reconstruc?
tion, and as tending to effect disunion instead of
reunion. Our Washington exchanges inform us
that his speech mado a considerable stir among
tho Radicals. Other prominent Republicans fol?
lowed upon tho condition of the Union and in de?
nunciation of the Bill. Notwithstanding this,
however, it is moro than probablo that it will be
passed. _
