Tho Baltimore T?'amcript has thc following excellent remarks: "Wc arc glad to notice the return of Price aud .other Confederates to this country. Thc temporary im? pulse which induced many "Southern inen to emigrate to Brazil, Mexico and other foreign regions, is rapidly subsiding. It is impossible, even if there were great inducements, that a whole people should emigrate. If thc prospects of the South, in thc tature, arc dark, then it it is unman? ly and ungenerous in those who have shared its prosperity to refuse to share its adversity. On tho other hand, if there is a reasonable proba? bility that, in the end, the South will weather thc ;ulverse storm, and bc once more a happy and prosper? ous people, it is uuwise to fly from transitory troubles to others that we know not of. There is no {duce like home, and no home like the sunny South. Home is where the heart is, aud where thc dear ones are gathered together. "Whether it bc a hovel or a palace thc chief attraction und joy of it are thc fond affections which cluster and put forth their flowers and fragrance beneath its roof. Thc South, though desolated by Ibo bund of war, is still thc native spot of its children. Its beautiful landscapes j . arc mirrored in their hearts; its peo- i plc should bc more end'. :".red to each | other from the sufferings which have.j been their common lot. If they j have been tried in thc dory furnace of adversity, they have come out pu? rified aud solidified by the process, [f they have lost much, they have not lost all. Tiie overarching Heavens and the mother earth arc still thc same. The stars which they watched in their infancy still shine serenely over their beads. The grand old mountains, the smiling valleys, the beautiful rivers still offer their charms to their eyes. The moral dignity, the elevation of soul, the generosity of spirit, which have always characterized their people, and have formed the peculiar glory and embellishments of their social state, are still unimpaired. Brave, genial men, and graceful, high-toned women are still found in all their habitations. There are no ruins which the vines of domestic virtue will not render less unsightly. There is no storm so dark that religious faith and hope will not discover some rent in thc clouds, and descry behind the transient vapors the everlasting stars. "The South is the home of South? ern men, and, on the soil where they were born, there let thom abide, and there return to the earth from whence they came. Viewing the future even in its gloomiest aspect, lee them pe? rish, if peris.lt they must, beneath tho shadow of tho household tree. Let them prepare to die upon the scarred breast of thc old motlier who boro them, and who nourished their infancy, rather than drag out a lonely and home-sick existence on foreign soil. "But wc are not disposed to look perpetually on the dark side of affairs. ' Why take.it for granted that nothing but impoverish meut anti ruin await the South in the future? To our eyes, there is a very different prospect. Tho thunders which still growl an? grily may be tho thunders ot* a re? turning, not an approaching storm. Long ?liter a fierce tempest bas lashed ! the ocean, tho waters continue to roll in perilous waves and dash furiously upon the shore. Let us wait in pa? tience for the storm to subside. The generous policy of President Johnson towards thc Southern States gives' promise of a brighter and happier day. Madness will not always rule the minds of the American people. The same Providence which bas inter nosed thc Chief Magistrate as a bul? wark between the South and the fa? naticism of section, may be reverently eonfiuetl in to protect it to the end. its people will again sit in safety ?ind joy betieath their own vim s and fig? tree-, possessing all the happiness of their former condition, with none to molest or make them afraid." t FVcsli Kicl-.ls for I.:it>or. The Montgomery Mail says that ' marjy of th*1 best citizens of Alabama, I Georgia, ami other Southern States, ; arc moving to Texas; and ve learn I from other Southern sources that j there is a very general migration in that direction from the older cotton J States. The reasons arc obvious; j the days of great plantations, devoted wholly to the staples-cotton and su? gar--are at an end, and small farms, raising cereal crops, will soon be the general rule throughout the South. It can easily be imagined that men who have been large planters, and j who see that extensive planting, with uncertain and, indeed, almost worth? less labor, is impracticable, should emigrate to "fresh fields and pastures new," where their smaller undertak? ings will not bc noticed as they would among their old friends and neigh? bors. Texas presents extraordinary inducements to immigrants. There is plenty of room and abundance of virgin soil; its vast, extent of territory includes varieties of climate, that will admit of thc production of every? thing that can be raised on this con? tinent, from corn to cotton; and, asa wool-growi G g and catt ! o-grazingSta te, it is without a rival. Moreover, tho negro laborers in the interior of that State have generally been beyond the reach of the Freedmen's Bureau, and, consequently, they have not been traded about under the new slave system of the "agents,"' hut have gladly ami contentedly worked at fair wages for their old friends and employers- their former masters. They are working for an honest liv? ing, instead of spending their time in retailing imaginary outrages to radical correspondents of Northern papers, and are' putting their well earned wages into their own pockets, in place of expending them for pho? tographs of their beloved schoolmis? tresses from Massachusetts. Tl 'c is not enough of this kind of labor in Texas, and efforts are making to induce immigration of white labor? ers, and with very considerable suc? cess. The latest: accounts say thal whole families, including a large .number of able-bodied men, have moved from the Gulf States to Tex-cs. and mea p.rc now going from States as far North as Virginia. At present, no field offers so remunerative and sc certain chances for employment; anti thc Tribune, would do well to recom? mend this favorable opening to lin white men whom it lately propose*, tv) starve away from the cities. [New York World ? ? ? ? Beecher t<? Brownlow. The subjoined letter appears ii the Nashville Press and Tines, Jami arv l t : BnooKLYK, NEW YORK, January 7, lSt57. Gov. Bnov.'NLOW -DEAI?

II. W. BEECHER. l oudon Snowed The London Telegraph, of the 3d instant, describes tho effects of ?1 heavy snow storm in that city, which seems to have been nn unnsu;d oc? currence: The widest thorough fares were so blocked by the drifts that the pas? sage along them was but a uarrow Lim-. By su. h difficult roads, toiled tho wretched cattle, in a sorrier plight even than that which is almost their normal condition; and tho cut of the lash came oftener and louder th; m ever. Oddiv matched were tho steeds that worked for the first time together. "Giraffes" and "frames" of all sizes pulled two and two most inharmoniously. In every case of tandem, it was ludicrously evident that the trace horse had never been used to that kind of thing, and he was dragged along willy-nilly by the leader, on whose back was usually to be seen an amateur postillion. Itail way vans and business carts of every kind were drawn by at least a double complement of horse power; and even then the wheels often stuck. In the central and busier districts of London, thc snow was soon trodden into a yellowish brown mire; and tho churning process, which continued throughout the day, gradually con? verted the filth into slush that was filthier still. At tho suburban ceme? teries, where funerals are certainly no less frequent than they are in other seasons of the year, the graves dug for those to whom no merry Christmas will ever come again, were half filled np by the night's heavy fal!; and there seemed to be a literal fulfillment of Campbell's linc-"The snow - 'edi be their winding sheet."' Thc cold continued ns bitter all day as it had been ail night, though the wind hilled soon after dawn. Long icicles depended from window-ledges and other outward projections ex? posed fully to the freezing atmos? phere; and, at last, winter did hang out his ensigns with a fierce prodi? gality about which there could be no mistake, lt would be curious to as? certain how much, or how little, shopping was dom- at the West laid. Not a ?cly was to be seen out (?I doors; and thc chairs in tempting shops, like those of Lewis and Allon? by, or S can and Edgar, stood in long empty rows for tho spruce young men to count, because they had no thing else to do. it is a positive fact that many tradesmen shut up shoj at once, and gave their servants ; queer sort ut "holiday. No visito] from the rural districts could hav< received a more dismal impression o metropolitan life "at this festive pe riod" than he had yesterday the un avoidable means of getting from th? sight ol'London snowed up. The Washington correspondent o the Memphis Commercial said, 01 the 13th: "Amid all this storm of radica vindictiveness, the President remain firm and unyielding, satisfied of tin rectitude of his course and of its en tire constitutionality. Ile is preparei for "the majority" at all points, an; will confine himself, so long as lu can, to the veto and decisions of th .Supremo Court; after that he wi] maintain the Government by al means at his disposal. Sworn to ad minister the Government upon th basis of the Constitution, and havin? already given faithful earnest of hi intern ion in that regard, Mr. John son may bc relied upon in any ex tremity. The Government will neve be disrupted while lu; is President, no will Congress, under any pretence be permitted to override that instru ment, without which there coal neither be Union nor Congress, Sc promo Court nor Executive." Holmes fells us that once upon time all the inhabitants of the cart agreed io cry out at the same mc ment, in order to ascertain what mighty noise they could make. Whe the tinto came, however, instead : shouting, everybody listened, exec] one old deaf woman in China, similar failure appears likely to 1 the result of the sage proposition t pay tho national debt by imposing o every person in the country thc dut of daily destroying a five cent spec men of our fractional currency. Thc lobby on thc tari fl' is large au very importunate. Senators arc 1> set in their bed-rooms and at the dinner tables; scurrilous paragrapl aro telegraphed to distant newsp pers, and (to use a familiar won "Hie whip is cracked" over the hea< ol' a!! who hesitate about voting f< th" highest proposed rates of dlltic As for.Mr. Wells, he is denounced ; a bribed free trade tool by tuen \\] have never themselves known how act honorably or to be impartial.

THE TRUTH ABOUT ?VSPKPSI A Whoever says that dyspepsia is incurable, tells a-that is to say, makes an egregious mistake. Mere than ten thousand aggra? vated cases have been cured by IIOSTET TEIPS STOMACH BITTERS, while the number that have been prevented from coining to a head, hy the same means, is incalculable. In winter and early spri.ig, when the appetite is sometimes too vigor? ous for the safety of the stomach, indiges? tion is most prevalent and most distress? ing. Is the appetite to be balked to accommodate the digestive organs? Not so; for then the frame would lack its due proportion of nutriment. The thing to bc done is to strengthen the stomach, tone the liver, and put the bowels in perfect order. Nothing will do this so effectually, ? so rapidly, so quietly, so pleasantly, as j HOSTETTER'S BITTERS. This potent i preparation trims and balances thc sys- ! tent, and-clothes it, as it were, with de? fendive armor. Chronic dyspepsia, liver complaint and fever and ague are- never kn-.wu to attack those who are wise enough to invoke the aid of this great preventive.
