COLUMBIA. Tuesday Morning, Feb. 12, 1867. liabor fur tilt: Suutli. We have frequently written on this subject. Tho movements in the Vir? ginia Legislature we ure watching with interest. Tho Richmond Times Las information that many immi? grants, especially from Germany, might be secured at this time, by just and fuir reprcsout. tiona of the advan? tages which that State possesses (which includes the whole Southern States) over thc wild Western States and Territories, to ino Lotter class of emigrants. The leading European journals are constantly referring to the fact that among the small German land-hold? ers and intelligent laborers ibero exists a feverish desire to emigrate to this country. Thc Northern hive is . disturbed by great causes, which are not yet fully developed, but the fact is conceded that such is thc case. They huvc, no doubt, been made un? easy by the recent wholesale dismem? berment and dissection of empires, kingdoms and principalities, by which they have been transferred as uncere? moniously as sheep by now masters. Emigrants of this sort ave the repre? sentatives of a much higher class of foreigners than those that arc daily driven in herds from Castle Garden to thc depots of thc railroads of the West, and consigned to "emigrant societies" of Wisconsin, Illinois, Kansas and Nebraska. Tho Tunes has the following paragraph which .-applies to our own State: "There is, at this time, a very great deficiency of labor, and that which wc have is of the most worth? less and unreliable description. If all tho negroes could be made to work, there would still be not more than a fourth as much labor as we require to develop the agricultural resources of the State. Agents are nee.led abroad to furnish reliable in? formation to guide tho better class -of immigrants to land in Virginia. Thc tenant in Euglantl and Scotland pays generally as much annual rent per acre for his farm as would pur chase superior land in Virginia in fee simple. We need agents \\\io will intelligently present these, as well as other similar facts, to these people, for their information about this coun try is of the most limited descrip lion." Wc hope that our people and thei: representatives will take this matte; into consideration. On yesterday we were made acquainted with tin ? fact that there were several agents ii this city endeavoring to make labo: contracts for the freedmen who wonk emigrate to Mississippi and othe: localities in the South and South wost. Something ought to be dom to stop thi:> nefarious trafile, and wi suggest thai, the State laws .should bi applied. Wc learn that some o these agents (or negro brokers) an in this city at thc present time. W< leave the ?xecution of the laws to th proper au tho ri ties. BRAZIUAS EMIGRATION.-An ex change says letters have been re ceived from many of the emigrant who wont from New York som months since, to avail themselves o the "liberal" offers of tho Braziliai Government as to donations of land the furnishing them with agricultura implements, and other facilities t enable them to become prosper; >u farmers, etc. The substance of thes letters is, that all are sorry they eve left the United States, and woul give everything to be back. The do not like the Brazilians, and th Brazilians do noL like them. It i alleged that thu Brazilian Goven mont wanted them to submit to coi tain conditions which would mais them but little better than slave Refusing to comply, tho Brazilian in turn, allege that these Yankee in migrants were not the kind of agi cnlturists the Government is desiroi of obtaining. The upshot of tl whole matter probably will bc that; many of them that can return hon will do so, with as little delay as pos.: ble. _ New England papers say that ' mechanic who is ont f work, pr poses to write Thad. Stevens, ai sec what amount of money (to 1 raised by so -eription among il mechanic; of Now Englaud) will 1 satisfactory to him, as an ind?ceme to let peace and prosperity bc r stored, North and South, as tl "y a anxious to get back to the' or shops. It maybe fun to In m-b death to them." The mechanic behind tho times. Bingham is bo of thc House now. From Washington. Wo clip the following from tho usu? ally reliable special correspondent of the Baltimore Sun. Speaking of tho consultation of certain Southern gen? tlemen, he sayo: Yesterday, these gentlemen, it? company with Senor Gen. Salgar, the Colombian Minister, had a protracted interview with Secretary McCulloch, and made explanations which aro be? lieved to have had tho effort of con vineiug.him that the customs oflicers in Now York acted in the matter on insufficient information. Tho above named gentlemen expect to return nome to-morrow, with an order for the release of the vessel. Nearly all tho members of Congress who have been invited to attend the President's slate dinner, on Tuesday evening next, have accepted the in? vitation. The invitations were sent out this morning, and responses were received in the afternoon. Mr. Ashley rose to a personal ex? planation in the House, to-day, and denounced the story that he, with General Butler and Mr. Stevens, had conspired to impeach Gen. Grant, in the impeachment investigation, as a falsehood. He stated that ho had offered the resolution adopted by the House on his own responsibility, and sent to the clerk's desk a copy of the letter containing tho objectionable statements. When the clerk read that portion purporting to have come from Mr. J lingham, and which reads, "Ashley, you are a fool,"' the House was convulsed with laughter, the gal? leries responding in long-continued applause. Mr. Stevens attempted to deny the reference to him, but was choked o fl with cries of order, whereupon ht took up as his subject tho reconstruc? tion bill, and created considerable amusement by pronouncing the storv wholly false. Apparently he was dis? cussing tho bill, but in reality hi? remarks referred to tho charge of his complicity with Mr. Ashley to stal Gen. Grant. Mr. Eldridge attempted to draf Mr. Bingham in the ring, by demand ing for him an opportunity to refute his share of the alleged conversation but he declined, with a statemen that he had nothing to say. It wa: expected that this episode would re suit in a spicy rencontre betweer Messrs. Stevens and Bingham, whicl would have occurred if the forme had been allowed to continue his re marks. It is rumored that Dr. Hall, of th Epiphany Church-Episcopal, of thi city-will soon accept tho BishoprL of the State of Georgia. Tho special correspondent of th? Baltimore Sur. says: "The kind ladies of our city win I have so steadily interested themselve in behalf of the destitute in the Soutl have projected another good work somewhat diff?rent in character frorj ! those in which they have heretofor engaged, but which, it is beloved will be of large and permanent bent fit to the needy women and childre: of that section. It is aseertaine that there are many ladies there wh ara capable and desirous of helpin themselves, if but tho opportuuit is afforded, by their own hibo! Throughout the South, there ar ladies skilled in needle-work, fancifc as well as useful, and also in the fal rication of worsted and other ligh articles, wdio prefer devoting then: selves to these occupations rathe than be the recipients of unqualifie I gratuities. In their own section, o account of tho general poverty they cannot now find demand ft their labor, or a market for thei productions. This being tho cas< au association called the Ladies' D< pository bas been formed in this ci t^ for tho purpose of receiving and di; posing of all needle anti other wor from the sources indicated, returi ing the wdiole proceeds to tho nece: sitous workers. A store for the di pository has been taken at No. 97J Lexington street, and the expens? of the establishment, the cost of tl transmission of goods, Sec., will I borne by tho association, the funt therefor being derived from anna subscriptions of five dollars, and sue contributions as may be generous! made. Where it may be necessary, tl association will supply materials i advance, to be worked up. There ar of course, many in our own city wi also may avail of the benefits of th institution in the way of procurii employment or disposing of article Tile chief officers of tho associatic are Mrs. Peyton Harrison, Presider Mrs. John H. B. Latrobe, Vice-Pr sident; Mrs. W. W. Spence, Tre surer; Mrs. Thomas Murdoch, B cording Secretary ; Mrs. James . Stewart, Secretary, with a board some twenty managers." j THE IMPEACHMENT.-A special cc respondent of the Atlanta Intel j gencer writes, from Washington: The great question is, the irupoac mont of President Johnson. It fully determined on. The plans a all arranged. The effort is sure to made. Thc President is fully appris of all movements looking to bis i moval. He is prepared for any omi gency. Ho is firm and unyielding, think tho bill of impeachment w not be reported until the last week this month, and will not be acted before the first week in March-t new session of Congress. Tho Ti sident, in case of impeachment, w neither permit himself, arrested, n will ho vacate his ellice. If force used ugainst him, he will meet foi with force. If there is any backing down to be done, it must be by the radicals; it will not be by Andrew Johnson. Bill* That Have Become Law? With? out th* Signature of the Presi? dent. As much comment has been occa? sioned by two important bills becoin ing laws without tho signature of thc President, the following communica? tion from thc Secretary of State, which has been laid before tho House, ?nay prove of interest in that connec? tion : DEPARTMENT OF STATE, WASHINGTON, February I, ISt'.T. Snr. I have had tho honor to re? ceive an authenticated copy of a pro ' amble and resolution passed by the House of Representatives yesterday, in which I am directed to inform the Houso whether certain laws, to wit, one a bill to repeal section thirteen of an Act to suppress the insurrection, to punish treason and rebellion, ana to seize and confiscate tho property of rebels, and for other purposes, ap? proved July 17, 1SG2; and another bill to regulate tho elective franchise in tho Territories of the United States, which bills aro reported by the Committee on Enrolled Bills to have been presented to the President of tho United States, respectively, on the 9th and 12th ult., have been filed in my (this) department. In reply, I have respectfully to state that j the two laws referred to in the r?solu j tion were this day filed in this de? partment, together with an accompa? nying note from Gol. William (1.

She is iu every respe* I a first class boat, and is under tl j command of Capt, Charles Collin ! whose reputation as a sailor of exp j rience and capacity, and as a court ous and accomplished gentleman, j familiar to all who "go down to tl sea in .ships." ANOTREU MASSACRE.-The Nc York T?ntes (Republican) thusnotic a movement in Congress disownit I tho South : The resolution of Mr. Schone which has passed tho House by ll yeas to ?5 nays, to pr?vido for i inquiry into the propriety of an ii mediate removal of the United Stat Naval Academy from its present 1 cation in the State of Maryland some point in a loyal Stato, whe the pupils of tho institution will secure against the surroundings pestilent and social influences host to tho National Government whi now predominates at Annapolis, i dicates that Congress intends to ] gard and treat the vhole of t Southern States as a power pera neutly hostile to the Government power to bo dealt with ns ia all : spects an enemy of the North, a to bo warred upon in all possii ways. If Maryland is at this day io treated as a "disloyal" State; if social sentiment is so "pestiler and its population so "hostile" the National Government, as to p chulo tho existence within its bom j aries of such a governmental instr tion as the Naval School, then might as well givo np tho hope seeing any part of tho Southe States, whether of the lato Cou fei racy or not, trustworthy in suppo ing tho Government; and it would better to (-stablish at once milit: rulo over all the region South of 1 old line of Mason and Dixon cepting only the city of Washing^ Indeed, we believe that Mr. Schcnc programme is really something this kiud, and that such measures this are only intended to pave 1 way for it. If his opinions were ] to tho test, we doubt if bo would coguizo any part of tho population the country as loyal, except th resident at Yollov Spri?gs and Ci Cod.

Description or the Black Crook, The following is Brick Pomeroy*s description of the celebrated Black Crook performance in New York: Niblo's is the theatre, not to fame unknown, located in this somewhat sizeable city. At present the Black Crook pre? vails there; has had a "big run," in theatrical parlance, and will probably keep the boards for several days and nights longer, if not more. Among seasons dramatic it will be remem? bered as a "bully" run. Everybody goes to see the Black Crook, because not to havo seen it is to bo prudish, old fogyish, behind tho times-that is why I concluded to behold the B. C. in all its glory, and regardless of expense. Entered the vestibule of the the? atre about dusk one evening, and drew nigh unto tho coop in which the man who selleth choice seats sit teth. While hunting for a sufficien? cy of filthy lucre in tho right hand pocket of my "weskit," a fat police? man standing beside the apartment aforesaid, probably to watch over the Black Crook, remarked: "Do you want a reserved seat?" Booking at him indignantly, then remembering the courtesy naturally belonging to the residents of the West, urbanely ejaculated "Yes." The fellow in tho bin handed forth a ticket with cou? pon attached, and raked in Lincoln's substitute for money. An hour and a half afterward was shown to pew, close up to and forn ist the stage, from which pointa good view could be obtained of tho entire Black Crook. People came piling in: they filled up the parquette, the parquette circle, the orchestra chairs, tho dress and family circles, camp stools and stair? ways, and stood around promiscuous like. B>y and by Harvey Dodworth e.imo out from a den beneath the stage with a lot of bald-headed horn-blow? ers and thin-visaged fiddlers. He sat in a high chair and shook a stick at his musicers, and they blew brass and sawed catgut tremendous. After they had played until black in the face a bell rang once and they "shut pan,'" then it jingled again and the curtain rolled up to the roof. Looked for tho "Black Crook," didn't see it-a fellow in brown clothes stood muter tho windows oi a story anti a half shauty, clapped his hands three times, a fat girl came down and talked love and othei things to him until an old girl (fatty's foster mothor) carno out ol the shanty and sent fatty in, while I she explained to the young brown ? clad chap, who, by tho way, was ? I poor artist, that he had better "git,' j as fatty was betrothed to a Count possessed of much postal and manj 7-30's. ? Young man rushes ofF despairingly, and about seventy girls, with ex j ceedingly well developed legs pro? truding from very short skirts, pour ed on tho stage and took positions while eight or ten of tho same sor proceeded to dance. Looked ove; the ballet corps, (which is the Freud for girls who dance muchly in fev clothes,) for tho Black Crook. Noni of them "lilied the bill," although al filled their ilesh-colored tights to tin fraction of a pennyweight. Tall about dancing-but how those A No. '. damsels did let themselves out. Thej would spin around tho stage on tin tips of their toes, each holding om of their 1-imbs parallel with thei heads, squirm, wiggle, writhe, twist bend and do heaps of gymnastics anti the moro "agility" they showed tho better tho audieuco seemed ti like it. After this thing had gone on ; while, tho Count., with his boh gamboliers, carno for a glimpse of hi "sweetness" that was to be. Th presumptuous brown cuss trottet fatty out, and began "sassing" th Count, who looked as if he wouli like to chaw brownie up. Some o tho Count's fellows took brownie ii charge, anti foster-mother explain that he is crazy, and has an extraoi dinary idea that every girl has prc mised to marry him. Tho Coun pretends to believe her palaver, tell big fighting mon to let brownie gc but secretly bids two gipsey lookiu: pirates to follow and seize liim, con veying him to "deepest dungeon bc neath tho castle's moat." Exi brownie and the gips. Then th maidens of the short skirts shak their legs awhile, and scene close with no "Black Crook" in sight. The gips secure tho young man i brown, and stow him away in a dam apartment not too liberally stocke with furniture. Third sceno ut lengt reveals tho Black Crook, who turi; out to be an unprepossessing bum] backed fellow, dealing in the blue art, and hating everybody, Aftc jawing about the bad luck he has ha for some time, he conohnhs to mak a journey to a certain spot in tl) forest for tho purpose of "raising th devil" and breaking; things. Lucite: tho father of the Black Bepublica party, pops tip through the stag* and the B. C. makes an arrangemer to furnish his Satanic Majesty with corrupted soul once a year. S. agreeing to give tho Black Croo heaps of power and a year of lifo fe every soul sent to hell's granan Thon, with heaps of devils, blue an red fire, closes first act. The B. C. tries his first experimer on brownie. Fires his heart wit rago and jealousy, and releases hil i from the dungeon to go on a journe I in search of a gold mine, armed wit a magic riug, secretly determinin that brownie- shall never get back alive. A scene by the Golden Lake follows, whero tho short-skirted girls reside and "dance happy hours away," in company with certain acro? batic and fiendish-looking chaps of the malo persuasion. The queen of this elegant domain suddenly "comes to time," bursting out of her attire like a sugar almond from a tinseled motto paper. She tells her loyal subjects a cock-and-bull story about hoing converted into a little dove, (by enchantment,) in which situation :i snake attempts to make of her a banquet, and would have succeeded but for the sudden appearance of a mortal who kills the venomous cop nerheod, thi? dov?? flying away. Just at this moment, brownie and his hired mau arrived, and the loyal? ists determine to slay him on sight. The queen in motto papers disco? vered tho brown chap (who, by-the way, now'ishiues forth in splendid store-clothes) to be tho identical hero who killed the snake, and of course she puts t'ue royal veto on any kill I ing, and invites the two mortals to i witness a "shindy" by the ballet troupe. And they just "get up and git," you bet! They outstrip ail for? mer efforts, and take th'> rag com? pletely off their previous leg efforts. Why, the wearing apparel of four of tho "loyalists" would not have mad .' a shirt as big as that worn by Wash burne when his orderly exclaimed: "Arise, oh! valorous Wisconsiner, and travel with exceeding muchness and vehemence, for the reba be upon I thee!'" cor full dress, they were just "old business!'' If they bad con? cluded to shed the remainder of their dry goods, they would have been just as warmly clad, and as complete? ly covered up. I trembled for the wardrobes of the quartette as they gamboled around in such a festive way. But thc articles of dress were well made, md here was neither rip nor tear visible at thc end of their straddling about. But while they were "on it," I assure you, it was exciting time for thc audience. Tho queen explained to brownie that he was in tue hands of the devil and his rump Congress; and furnished him withtalismou to prevent mischief to himself and "hissen." In the re? maining two acts, it is "nip and tuck" between tho opposing forces. Brownie has many hair-breadth es? capes with fatty, whom he carries off from the castle; there is more danc? ing, heaps of deviling, some comical passages, to give time for the arrang? ing of scenes; but, finally, white wins, tho devil is baffled, and tho Black Crook, failing to bring in lost soirl No. 1, is conveyed below stairs, with much outlay of hine fire, and accom? panied by several demoniac "supes." The piece winds up with a scene certainly the most gorgeous and mag? nificent event seen upon the Ameri? can stage. At least ten minutes are required to fully develop its beauties, when it at last stands comp?ete, the most brilliant result of scenic science I ever looked upon, after years of theatrical experience. The Black Crook, as a dramatic work, amounts to less than nothing its chief and only features are a la? vish display of leg timber and costly stage effects. For four months, this play (so-called) has kept the stage, the theatre, every night, being crowd? ed to suffocation by the most refined and select of audiences. Why this is so, each must judge for him or her? self, but certain it is, that such is the fact. Should tho Gothamites weary of the B. G., Manager Wheatly might pack np his legs and devils and things, and give our LaCrosse people a tasto of Black Crook, at Singers' Hall. I am sure he would have one full house, when he comes, for the theatre-going people of LaCrosse pos? sess critical tastes,- keenly enjoy dra? matic entertainments, and that is what is the matter with tho Black Crook. THE BANKRUPT BIEE.-The bill has again been defeated in the Senate by a vote of 20 to 22. If the States rep? resented in Congress wero suffering by hopeless indebtedness one-tenth as much as South Carolina, they would, of course, pass the bid. An amendment was proposed to the bill, excluding from its benefits all per? sons who could not take tho test oath; the amendment failed, receiving but ten votes. Wo suppose, it' it had passed with this amendment, the anti-relief legislators of South Caro? lina would have been satisfied with it, for South Carolina would have been effectually excluded from its benefits. It is a fact to be remem? bered, that tho Board of Trade in Charleston, last year, actually sent a remonstrance to Congress against the bankrupt law; and Charleston has, through her representatives, des? potically ruled tho Legislature of this State in preven ting any measures of relief to tho people, aided by a number of mistaken gentlemen from the country Districts. But for the large voto of Charleston, tho annual court bill would certainly have passed last December.-Greenville /enterprise. By tho disobedience of a lad in ISO'-?, a garden gate, in Rhode Island, was left open, and a pig got in and destroyed a few plants; a quarrel be? tween the owners of the garden and the pig grew out of it, which spread among their friends, defeated tho Federal candidate for the Legislature, and give the State a Democratic Se? nator, by whose vote war was de? clared in 1812 with Great Britain. \Ex:hange. - - Oun READING houri.-Our friends aro invited to visit the Phoenix reading room, where they will find on file papers and periodicals from every section of tho Union.

I - DEATH of AK Ono RESIDENT.-Mrs. Agnes baw, an old ami much-loved resident of this city, departed this lifo yesterday. Sbo has been confined to her bcd for a length of time, from the effects of cold contracted from ticing exposed in her garden for seve? ral day?, after the destruction of her dwelling on the ever-memorable 17th of February. Mrs. T.r..r was a consistent member of the Presbyterian Church. ST. VALENTINE'S DAV -FEBRUARY H. -In speaking of this day the near approach of which is heralded by the display of Valentines in tho bookstores-a cotenipo rary says that it is tho day sacred to St. Valentine, a holy priest of Home, who, willi St. Mannus, assisted in tho persecu? tion under Claudius :!. Ile was arrested hy that Emperor and sent to the I'refcct of home, who, on finding all his efforts to nu'kchim renounce bis faith ineffectual, caused him to be beaten with clubs and I afterwards beheaded. This unfortunate , shortening of his stature, by a head, occurred i ?: il.. 14th, and hence tho origin of tkc'fcstival of st. Valentine, hut what connection this holy priest ever had with love-making, we have never been able sa? tisfactorily to discovi r. Thero aro many conjectures, but thc most plausible is to he found in the ornithological workingS%f nature. About this time, tiie icc king begins to give way to thc balmy breathings of gentle spring, early vegetation com nvT.C'-s, and the birds, after a long semi torpid holiday, begin to mate and com? mence house-keeping for tho season.

NORTH CAROLINA.-Tho Raleigh Sentinel says the measures of popular relief passed by the North Carolina Legislature have proved ineffectual or inadequate, and that the member* met in coufercuce on Friday last, to devise somo additional expedient. The Sentinel adds: "From all parts of the State, we learn that, under the stay law of the convention, creditors are putting their claims in suit. In some Coun? ties, thero are from 500 to 1,000 writs returnable to the next terms. Wher? ever thero is the remotest prospect of making good a debt, creditors are suing. The consequence is, general uneasiness and alarm prevails, among the debtor class." Tho Wilmington Dispatch says: A few nights ago, our informant goes on to state, the sheriff of Pitt County was riding near tho town or Greenville, having in his possession a number of papers returnable to the spring term of the court, when ho was seized by a mob of persons in disguise, and in strong force, and stripped of all documents of the na? ture described. The party then re? paired to tho clerk's office, in Green? ville, and destroyed all similar papers found there, after which they quietly dispersed. They wero so disguised as to pre? clude any possibility of detection, and, as yet, no chm has been found to implicate any of the offenders. Wo regret to chronicle such law? lessness, but think this is but the na? tural result of tho ruin which has been wrought by tho war, and are apprehensive that such disgraceful proceedings will spread in other quarters. ADMINISTRATION DINNERS.-Th? President gives state dinners every week, to which ho invites a certain number of persons of distinction, and he has gone so far along in the list that tho House of Representa? tives is now experiencing his hospi? tality. Tho guests are invited in alphabetical order, a systematic and business-like plan, doubtless, but hardly the best way to gather a genial company. We seo it stated that in? vitations for Tuesday's dinner have i been sent to Messrs. Ashley, Bout-* well, Broomall, Banks, Bingham, Blaine, Blow, Conkling and Colfax. The good breeding of such a dinner party gathered at the White House must bo rather severely taxed to keep tho conversation free from unpalata? ble topics. A Cl [FT PRESENTATION SCIIKME NOT A LOTTERY.-The case of "The Peo? ple vs. James C. Regan," a clerk in the employ of tho agents of a Broid I way presentation festival sehemo, came up yesterday afternoon for ex? amination before Justice Lodvvitu, at tho Jefferson Market Folie?
