The Cabinet was in session all the afternoon, but lacks harmony.

TO 1 HE EDITOR OF THE NEWS. j I have read with great interoai your edito? rials on the subject of Ch?nese immigration. Whilst you advocate the expediency of intro? ducing this kind of labor into the sogar, rice, and cotton fields of the Sou tb, I am pleased to ' find yon not unmindful pf the undoubted advantages of white accessions to our popu- < lation. Let me suggest that this point should be kopt steadily in view. The Mongolian is au experiment. The Caucasian is a fart. The Mongolian ia an expedient. The Caucasian is a principle. You may accept the Mongolian auxiliaries, bnt reject hot yonr Saxon allies. Aa au abstract proposition, I presume few persons would ad voe tte the introduction of the Chinese element into our country. To the reflooting mind here,, auch a population must possess few attractions. This Southern coun? try has been the schoolhouse of the African. Musi it flec?me, at additional, expense, the schoolhouse of the Asiatic ?Iso ? If this be the decree of Providence, it is well, and the teachers must do their part. But if possible, for one I.would have our people excused from this missionary work, and, letting 'charity be gin at home, I would restrict tbe subjaats <5f reformation to our own ci tine ae. 11 ?Sinoe the abolition of African" slavery'and the system connected with itt,. I. have looked with hope to the timo when the negro element having, by God's Providence, been eliminated by natural causes, this land of oura, with its vast resources, should be occupied, possessed and ruled by a homogeneous and sympathetic. .population, illustrating the benefits and enjoy? ing the fruits of a solid Christian civilization, {.know that this consummation could not be attained in a day; but the reflection suggested itself tbat it waa perhaps incumbent upon ns patiently to await' our r?demption, : I will admit that the Chinese question, hav? ing suddenly loomed sp, changes the sspeot of things. . Owing to political interference and persistent intermeddling, and to other causes, the labor of the South becomes unsteady, scarce and unreliable. The problem presents itself for solution, how are lands of the South' to be cultivated ? Whilst looking to the immi? gration from Northern Europe, and jost wheo our Southern proprietor? had begun co despair of success in that quarter, the Uh in a m du sud? denly, perhaps providentially, appears upon the field, and is soon hailed, as if by popular instinct, as the man for the times. I confess myself startled at the striking co? incidence. A new political vista opens before the mind, anl the eye seeks to penetrate its shadowy length. Ono thing is app?tent. It seem3 obvious that it is useless to discuss the Chinese qnestiou in the abstract. The indications are that the matter in the concrete will soon be with us. I shall not seek-to solve a problem whioh will solve itself. Around it gather arguments pro and con. The subject in its bearings, imme? diate and remote, ia a vast ono. It suggests that we live in an era of startling changes. In the South especially thins* generally are in a strikingly abnormal stats, ; Hence many look upon the advent of the Chinaman an eminent? ly in keeping with the tunes, and they ore ready to stir the political cauldron until "the hurly-burly is don?." About one proposition there will bo no dis? puto-upon the field of labor in the South there is room for Caucis an, Mongolian and African. Our great want is labor With which to develops our resources and to augment our productions. This is the imm?diate matter with which we bava to deal. The labor that I we have ie insufficient. The labor that we won ld prefer is s.ow to com3. Under these circumstances, no one devoted to Southern in? terests oan consistently oppose thie.new labor, which, in a pressing emjrgenoy, forces itself upon our notice. Bat this caution m iv well be thrown out. In accepting a now element, let us not ignoie either the elemmt that we have or the element that is conceded to be most desirable. Good statesmanship will uso to the country's best interests all tho elements of wealth that lie Within its reaob. * OB9XSYBE.

The recent publication in THB NEWS of much that interests the planter, induces me to ask the inset tion in your columns of sn article more appropriately designed for an agricultu? ral Journal. As a large proportion oj your readers are planters, I suggest for their con? sideration the following inquiry : Does corn planting on upland in South Carolina, or throughout the fio?th, (I UH^ao the cotton Hell, of the South,) remunerate the planter ? A negative reply comes this year from all quarters, and the same will be the case two years in three. The twenty-acre field of up? land, that will produce this year ten bushels per acre, will be the exception ; one-third o' this goes to the freedman, and the remaining two-thirds will be coneumed by wear and tear, blacksmith's bills, interest, insurance, tales, and the mule. Tbe planter's profit will be nothing. Then why do planters persist in cultivating so exhaustive and still so nnremu nerative a crop ? I Can assign no other reason than the one assigned by the boy who was asked, why he went to mill with a bushel of meal in one end of the big anda rock in the other 1 He replied, he did it because daddy did it. Advising against growing upland corn I am not an advocate for the cultivation of cotton to the exolusion of forage and provision crops. Not at all. Corn should be grown more Or less on all plantations, but solely upon such lands as will p ty best in corn. In my judgment there is not labor enough in the South to glnt the market, were every acre of cultivated kV d planted in cotton. Cut it would be ruinons io more ways than one to pursue-snob a policy; breadstuff* would be greatly enhanced, and provender would become an expensive neces? sity. The quantity of earn; however, con? sumed by man is bat sn item ia the products of tbe farm, it ie the stock that are the costly consumers. And the object of this article is to suggest a method by which stock can be more economically ted, labor mor? advantage? ously em pl o.ved, plantations improved, and, withal, no corn cultivated upon uplands. \ Any field capable of producing ten bushels of corn per nore, will yield the same number ' of bushels of rye; aod one bushel of rye, ground into meal sad made into a ,vmasb" with out rye straw, will feed s boise or mule one-fourth longer time than a bushel of ?oro. j The same field soWn in rod oats, anytime be- 1 tween 1st October and lat April, will produoe threshed oats enough (the straw being sailed and fed as fod dei ) to feed s number ot animals one-half longer than the corn and fodder from the same field. Any piece of land, having an admixture of j clay in its soil, sown ia wheat in November, and top-dressed with ten - dollars' worth Of commercial manures per acre, any time be? tween the lat February and the 1st April fol? lowing, will yield wheat enough io pay for the manures, bread the family, and buy tho cora ' the land would have produced. Any field manured at seeding-time with ten dollars* worth per acre of co nmeroial manures, ahd Bown in barley, and again top-dressed as suggested above lor wheat, will produce ?rain enough to pay for the manures, and buy twiss as much corn as tbe land would have produced Without manure. ' " - Any laborer th it can cultivate six: acres of cotton'and six of corn, con just as easily culti? vate ten aerea of cotton and eight acres of either ot the cereals. These assertions are not made sf random; they ore the result of my own experience. And if these foots be trae, each planter hes but to calculate for himself the diff?re JOS in coit cf seeding and harvesting a small grain crop, and Ot cultivating ai corn crop. I may be met with the remark that wheat.and barley are too cost ly to be fed to Work animals. I reply, if they are worth double in markst what corn is, and I can grow a bushel of either cheaper than I can a bushel of corn, they are lesa expansive feed for my stock than corn would be. If their marketable value would be greatly re? duced by being more extensively sown then We would ?only ie the happier people, because breadstuff4 would be cheaper. For all small grain erops the land should be thoroughly prepared as soon after the lat October as practicable, and the grain brushed or harrowed In, not ploughed in, and tbe land rolled. Harvesting should, if possible, be done with a reaper, not with a oradle. The best cradler will, in a luxuriant small gram crop, in spite of himself, lose from three to five bushels per acre. If tbe land is proper'y pre? pared, the reaper saves it all. Were a more extended area of thoroughly prepared land upon all of our cotton planta? tions sown in that small grain best adapted to tbe respective plantations, we oould live more independently, raise more stock, set our own price upon cotton, and not bs so solicit? ous about labor. An intelligent laborer accus? tomed to improved machinery can cult?vate moreland and harvest more grain than any half dozen men who use the uncouth imple? ments of slavery times. As a planter, I feel tbat the great want ot the agricultural! inter? ests of oar State is the introduction of that clnss of skilled laborers, who, bringing their improved implements with them? MU become laud proprietors, rather than the immigration of hordes of illiterate foreigners, who would soon become as demoralized and uncontrolla ble as our existing labor? Very respectfully, D. WYATT AIKEN. NO EE ACE EIKE MOME f ? Return of Confederate Colonists frons Brazil-Ail alele ot Ute Bargain. Soon after the late war a number of disgust? ed Confederates, fearing that the Southern States would be unfit to live in, departed tor the Empire of Brazil in several different expe ' ditions, of wlnoh those under the lead of Mo* Cullins, Dunn, Hasting* and Oast JU were the most prominent. The ?rat ata?ed from Gal? veston, th? two following from New Orleans, and the last from New York. They settled in d. fieront parts of Brazil, at traced by promises of long credits lor their land, made by tbs Brazilian Emperor. The result of their ex? periment was a greater disgust for their new home than for the degenerate land whence they had fled. i The aoil often proved poor, fever and ague oiroted in the air, the native plantera were de? plorably ignorant ?od uncompanionable and no market was offeted the little produoe tbs * aetuere were able to raise. A stampede soon took place among them, and many ar? availing themselves ot a free pa- Iago homo from Bio Janeiro io the naval vessels, by permission ot we President. .
