Prc: Farms for White Inimlgrnnla.
YV? print iliis morning n report or ibo
proceedings of n mooting held al Bobcrlvillo
in Iltis State, on tho 21st instant, wlieit u
number ol planters n gr cod lo give intet? or
land, frac of charge, lo European farm hands,
upon certain conditions rocommontlctl by ti
commiUce at:d agreed lo hy Hie mooting.
it ia now generally understood, thnt il will
lie tllflicnll to direct t?> tho Beacons! the title
of white immigration which sola lowan! Vir?
ginal and Georgia, ami towards the upper
putta of (his State. Oilier tilings hoing
equal, tho immigrant will nvoid tho low
country, but when ho la oilered laud free of
till cliur;;o, hr has n reason for preferring tho
colton und rico of tho seaboard to the corn
and wheat of thc mountains. In nearly
every Southern State lands can be bought
at. fairly low prices, with oasy terms of pay.
mont, lint in no Stale of which wo hare
knowledge, except South Carolina, do thc
landowners propose to sive tho immigrant
a form large enough lo support in comfort
him und his family,
Tho RCtioral principle of giving away n
part of n tract of land, in order to enhance
llio valuo of tho remainder, needs no vindica?
tion hero; but it is possible so to hamper thc
grant with conditions and restrictions as to
doa troy it? attractiveness, and make it power?
less to accomplish nny substantial good.
This ia the danger suggested by randing
tho "Thror- Conditions" of lite Robertville
planters.
Thc first condition requires thc immigrant
lo work for tho first six months for the donor
of tim land, at thc regular wages. This is
indirectly oxneting a price for tho lund, bot
the chief oli.iection ls Hint the imm?jrnnt is
required to work for others at the very time
when lie should be hardest nt work for him?
self. Willi fences to repair, with n house
and outbuildings to put up. willi land to cnl
tivato, with a thousand thing? to do lo make
wife and children comfortable, ho requires
for Iiis own active use every hour of daylight
If the immigrant is starving and cannot
wnit until h'm food comos oui of the
ground, ho may win bread by working six
days in thc week for the. donor of the land,
while on thc seventh day he scratches the
soil so a3 lo make, in lime, a few bushels of
com or a handful ol cotton. But this is not
tho class of immigrants wc want , or that wc
expect to obtain.
The second and third conditions are whol?
ly impracticable. We mny dtemisa tho
second with the remark that, under it, an
immigrant conld not exchange ii word willi
a negro. Ot the third, it is enough lo say
that the immigrant could not, by any agree?
ment, strip himself of his natural right to
appeal lo the courts for redress, nor would
he forfeit his land by ?oing into court in ili
net ,,|.|,c,.',U.." lu Ile lwino vi Ilm ?JJI'eV
meot
The plan of giving away surplus land to se?
lect immigrants is thc best Hint the low coun?
try can adopt. But thc conditions should he
few anti simple. Thc donors might stipu?
late that n just proportion of the luud should
lie regularly cultivated ; that uone of the
lund should bc sold hy tho immigrant until
after the expiration of a certain number ot
years: (hat the land should not then bc sold
except to a certain class of immigrants; but,
ut the inn i mn of it all, shonld be the explicit
declaration that, after n stated time, len
years for instance, thc lund should bc held
by thc immigrant in foo simple, nnd be, in
fact, as nbsolutely his property ns though it
had hoon bought and paid for with his own
hnrd-eamcd money. Unless thc immigrant
can see his way out of thc woods, nnd can
look forward to tho day when he can do as
ho liko3 willi Iiis own, a Rift of land will be
rather shunned than sought, hy Ihoso whom
we most desire to attract into tho Slate.
Soi lol Discontent.
Perhaps the most proliilc eauso of discon?
tent is just now a want of consideration and
sympathy. Conlltiing our thought lo our
own lot merely, we ave apt to esteem our?
selves as unjustly dcnllh with in the porti?
llon of this world's goods. Wo are impa?
tient of tho burdens of life, because they
seem specially oppressive in our cnae, and
wo loudly clamor for relief.
Thus thc workman, regarding his sordid
honip. reflecting upon his long nnd poorly re?
quited labor, keenly fooling lils sociul depres?
sion, beset by children loan and hungry ns
greyhounds, experiencing discomfort in sick?
ness and anticipating privation in old ago
stands in thc foreground of a pichir? of scan?
ty sunlight and sombre with advancing
storms.
Yoi-, perchance, Iiis employer, who seems
so prosperous, and keeps so serene a frout,
may bear a hoavior burdon. rfrrtwithatand
ing all tho fair seemings that are necessary
for tho maintenance of thc credit of tho lut?
ter, Hie circumstances of his condition may
lie more distressing. So many debts to pay ;
to large an establishment to maintain-so
lunch money lo raise, such adverse circum?
stances lo encounter and lo ovcrconio
such a Pablan policy of contest against over?
whelming odds to pursuo; nil thia may tax
his foriitude to tho utmost. And all the
while bis credit forbids him to murmur or to
wince. T?o is like the stoned Spartan, who
heit] Ihc fox under his robo and reinuined
silent, wliile the wild crcuturc wa? tearing
out his vitalfk.
Yet these contending classes or? not the
only stations of t?HContenL History is full
of thc disquietudes of Kings, " Within whoso
"hollow crown Death kept his court"-of
weary greatness, and of troubled affluence
and nobility. Byron's grandson was so im?
pressed wltii tho cares of elevated rank, that
he refused to take his horoditnry place In
tho peerage and tho llouso of Lords, prefer?
ring to bo a workman in un iran foundry.
Dlalklo gives tho story of a nobleman wbo,
standing on an omi nc nco with n friend, told
him that all tho fertile acres enclosed by the
horizon belonged to his (velato. "How hap
"py a man yon mnst bol" exclaimed his
companion. " Happy I" replied the wealthy
"nobleman, "Happy I in all that wide ex
"pauso which you behold, there ls not n
.ha m lot that contains so utterly wretched n
"man!" As thc old proverb has ll, "there
"is n skeleton in every house."
Every our will remember hov? shrewdly
Addison rebuked this general discontent
In one of his thoughtful apologues in the
K}>ci lalor, he represeni? the King of Heaven
tis sending forth tv summons lo nil Hie aillict
cd of thc hutmill race, lo make nn exchange
of thc burdens mid evils under which they
groaned. Tho summons was cheerful!*
obeyed-tho transfer joyfully effected. Hut
soon tho dissatisfaction was greater than
ever, 'inch Bufferer felt that his new burdeu
was more intolerable than the old; nod by
general consent they made a set omi trana?
for-oneil niau recovering his own. Tims
pleasantly does tito English essayist satirize
the folly of the .ireiioral discontent.
ll is n mere truism to say-and yet nono
?lo wo more readily forget -thal tho cause ot
most of our troubles lies in ourselves, not in
our surroundings. A restless, ntircasoning
desire for somolhlng more Hum you now en?
joy-something larger, belter, denier-nil
insatiable greed of nature, is the prolific
source of our social rivalries nm! conflicts.
This is Hie real motive of that envy and halo
which tho social lovelier vainly seeks to dis?
guise under the mask of Liberty, Eiptulity.
Fraternity ; words sacred and potent, were
they not historically the rallying cry of ti
carnival of disorder, or (lie slogan of nu
orgie of blood.
To lunn.m nature und to society itself,
nothing is more prejudicial Hutu Hutt eager
jaelousy and selliahncss which, under such
fuir pretences, tire over agitating tho commu?
nes of men, mid are nit ml hues lom lest in
their clamors before the tribunals of justice
a jealousy mid selfishness as distinct from the
real loss ness which seeks untiringly the legit?
imate means of individual und general im?
provement, us is tho license of Hadiealism
from Ilia liberty wo till desire.
WHAT docs thc Radical world think of the
linugiiiy Mayor Pillsbury, who palavers and
champagnes tho oiliccrs of the Spanish fleet,
while Hie Legislature of tho Stale pledges
"thc last man and last dollar" lo the cause
of suffering Cuba ! Mnyor Pillsbury, it must
Le admitted, is highly practical in his ex?
pressions of sympathy. Tho glorious vin?

Ox and ofter thc first of January next, no
person will lie allowed to kiBS his wife, nurse
a baby, or carry on any other "lindo, busi?
ness or profession," without first obtaining n
city license, ns required by the bill "lo regu?

THE Darlington Democrat says that it is
almost certain thal Judge Orr will be raised
to the Supremo Bondi, anti thal Whipper's
defeat is certain. We are inclined lo be?
