. Immigrant? and their Settlement
Bout*.
A Lynchburg paper says that the
great problem with the farmers of
Virginia-and the same is, to a
greater or less extent, that which
many of the other Southern States,
will have to solve-is how to improve
their large estates, at the same time j
drawing an income from them. It
takes the ground that if land-owners
rent their lands, to such tenants as
they usually find willing to rent, the
-damage to their estates from careless
-and unskillful cultivation gonnrally
.exceeds the rent. If they attempt to
-cult?vate all their lands themselves,
?even If they co uh1, get abundance of
labor, they cannot get the capital to
..carry on so large a business pro
iperly.
The advocates of large farms state
~*ery correctly, that English experience
/demonstrates that large farms are
more profitable than small ones, but
forget that, according to the same
experience, a large capital is necessary
to carry on a large farm. The
average cost per acre of these large
farms in Engalnd is twenty-five dol?
lars in gold, for labor, machinery,
Ac, exclusive of rent. . Now, it is
evident, at a glance, that this sort of
farming is impracticable here, and
must be so for years to come, for
want of capital; no matter how
abundant the labor might be. Nor
can this capital be procured in suffi- j
?tent amount by selling part of the
farms or plantations; for if this sys?
tem should be generally adopted, so
much land would, be thrown on the
market. as to bring prices down to
ruinous figures.
Our Virginia cotemporary assumes
' that a sufficient number of small
tennants would be able to carry on
farming on their own account, with?
out assistance; most of those immi?
grants, to carry on business for them?
selves, will become tempted, by the
low price of laud in other sections,
and will, as experience has oLcwn,
buy a homestead for themselves.
The paper referred to, recommends
the cotter system of Qr eat Britain, as
a plan, which will, besides the great
object in view-the cultivation of the
eoil-enable the land-owners to derive
?a reasonable income from their large
estates. This system has tho follow?
ing as its principal features:
"The cotter system takes its name
from its distinguishing feature, the
settlement of tho farm laborers in
cottages, each family living in their
own cottages, aud supporting them?
selves by the cultivation of a little
ground attached to the cottage, and
by laboring on tho estate ou which
they live, or for the neighboring
farmers, as well as by service as do?
mestics when occasion offers. In
England and Scotland they now pav
rent for their little cabin and patch
. of ground, to which there is usually
annexed the common right to fuel
and the privilege of grazing a cow or
two on the common pasture of the
estate, though in former times it was
most common for them to pay only a
nominal rent. Tho advantages of this
system are many and great. In a
moral point of view, the home in?
fluences are of inestimable value to
the laboring class, when they live
thus independently in families, and
the family ties keeping the laborers
in one locality, the neighboring
farmers "have a sure supply of skilled
labor when they waut it."
The labor system and its proper
re-organization for the South, is the
great problem to be solved; and,
therefore, we present from time to
finie, such suggestions as we deem
worthy of the consideration of our
planters and farmers. The great ob?
ject to be attained, affects them di?
rectly, and indirectly every other
business interest of our seetion.
THE UNITED STATES SENATE.-The
term of twenty-one United States
Senators will expire on the 4th of
March, 1869, of whom fourteen are
Republicans, ?"n? nev cu Democratic;
but it is scarcely possible for the De?
mocrats to break the two-thirds power
of the Republicans in that body dur?
ing the existence of the 41st Congress.
They have, however, gained one in
Ohio, and another in California, but
have lost one in Tennessee, Governor
Brownlow having been elected over
Mr. Patterson. The Ohio and Cali?
fornia Senators have not yet been
chosen.
Tho proposed new territory of
Wyoming is formed out of Colorado,
Dacotah, Idaho and Nebraska.
DESCRIPTION OK TORTOLA.-Tortola,
which a despatoh by the Cuba cable
announces hes been submerged, with
a loss ot 10,000 persons, says the
NeirYork World, is one of the Vir?
gin Islands, West Indies, belonging
to Great Britain, situated between
Virgin Gorde. and St. Jbhn'e. The
length of the island is twelve miles,
and its breadth four miles. It con?
sists mostly of a range of hills rising
to 1,600 feet in elevation, and in its
North part encircling a harbor, on
the West side of which is the town of
Tortola. The island is very un?
healthy to... Europeans. Tortola has
its Governor, Council and Legislative
Assembly. It became a British pos?
session in 1666.
SOUTHERN Sdnoor. BOOKH-WA
find the following notioe of a new
Southern school book in the Augusta
Constitutionalist, o? Saturday:
"Mr. Lawrence S. Benson, of
South Carolina, is one of the most
remarkable young, men of the age.
His devotion to mathematical studies
has been long and enthusiastic. The
fruit of much study and research is
-now before the public,- in the shape
of a volume, the advertisement of
which can be found in oar columns.
Mr. Benson hos received great encou?
ragement in the North, and recom?
mendations from distinguished
sources without stint and number.
In the work before us, he has essayed
to remove many objections to Davies'
Legendre-the more prominent of
whioh is a want of simplicity, not to
speak of the fact that modern science
has materially advanced sinoe this
book of Davies' was first introduced.
"We suggest that the teachers of
the South procure and examine this
volume. It is high time we encou?
raged our native genius; and when
the professors of the North have
endorsed a work of character from a
Southern author, our own scholars
engaged in teaching youth will be
very dereliot, should they fail to
patronize, or at least investigate, a
volume that has beon warmly oom
mended by the Scientific American."
During the session of the Evan?
gelical Lutherrn Synod, in Charles?
ton, the following resolution was
adopted :
"Resolved, That during tho Syno
dical year, the Seventh Jubilee of the
Reformation, arraugements be made
to celebrate the Reformation in a be?
coming manner, aud that a Commit?
tee of Three be appointed to confer
with the pastors in reference to the
services and the time."
COST OP RECONSTUCTION.-It is said
the cost of the military establishment
in Virginia, to carry out the recon?
struction acts of Congress, was, for
the last teu months, live millions of
dollars-that is, at tho rate of six
millions a year. This is iadepondeut
of other costs, and of tho Freedmen's
Bureau. Taking all tho expenditures
together for Virginia, as the result of
the radical legislation of Congress,
they would amount, probably, to
over ten millious. A proportionate
sum has been spent, of course, in all
the other Southern States. The cost
of reconstruction in all, then, is little
less than a hundred millions a year.
What a prodigious sum wasted
literally thrown away I The South
might have been restored long since,
and without this cost Restoration
has been delayed, with all the fright?
ful consequences, socially, politically
and financially, for no other purpose
than to keep tho dominant party in
power. An overburdened people are
called upon to pay a hundred millions
a year to establish negro rule in the
South, and to keep the radical Ro
publicaus in power. This is the
naked fact, and one which wo believe
the people will long remember.
[Neto York Herald.
THE UNION LEAGUE TICKET.-We
are credibly informed that upwards
of half a million of tickets for the
Convention election, which will take
place in this Stato to-morrow and tho
day after, have been printed within
the past few days, by several of the
job printing offices, aud all tho tickets
are printed on white or yellow paper,
with black aud red ink, to denote the
motley nature of the party, and have
a cut of tho herid of Lincoln, and the
names of the candidates on their face,
and "For the Convention" on there
verse. It is not to bo presumed,
however, that theso 500,000 are all
for Charleston District, as the mana?

other Districts, and where suitable
candidates for the party cannot be
found in any of the interior Districts,

FIEE.-About 1 o'clook this morn?
ing, fire was discovered issuing from
the lower floor of the premises on the
West side of King street, one door
North of Clifford, occupied by Mr.
G. Cohen as a dry goods store and
residence. The fire department, with
its nsnal alacrity, appeared on tho
scene, and succeeded in extinguish?
ing tho flames, before any very mate

UNITED STATES NATAL OBSESVATOR Y,
, WASHTN?TOH, November 14, 1867.
Sra: I bave the honor fco submit
the following preliminary report of
the moteo rio shower of this morning:
The display of meteor? was the
most brilliant seen in this country
B?nco the great shower of 1888.
In accordance with a request of
Professor H. A. Newton,. observa?
tions in the Northern heavens for
parallax were made between tba
hoare of ll and 2 o'clock; very few,
however, were seen till, 1 o'clock.
These observations, were' made, and
! the tracks of the meteors, by Messrs.
Main, Lindenkahl, Tarnbrock and
Fitman, a party of assistants of the
United States Const Survey, who
kindly volunteered their services.
Forty-six meteor tracks were zapped
down by them.
Observations in conjunotion with
I Professor Harkness, of this Observa-'
! tory, at .Richmond, for parallax, were
commenced shortly after 3 o'clock,
tho Observatory party, Messrs. New?
comb, Eastman, Harrison, Doolittle
and Gardner. Arrangements had
been made, by the courtesy of the
manager of the American Telegraph,
to exchange telegraphic signals with
Professor Harkness on the appear?
ance of each meteor; bnt, through
some disarrangement of the wires,
communication could not be estab?
lished. 125 meteor tracks were
mapped down before half-past 4
o'clock, when the meteors flew so
thick that identification of those
seen from our two stations became
hopeless, and simple counting was
resorted to.
1,000 meteors were counted in the
twenty-one minutes between 4.14 and
4.35. Afterward, successive hundreds
were counted in the following in?
tervals: 4m.' Os.; 5m. 30s.; 5m. 35s.;
5m. 44s. ; 9m. 03s. ; 9m. 37s. ; 10m.
31s. ; 18m. 20s.
The first thousand being partly
counted while mapping Vas still
going on, it is probable that one-half
were not seen; so that it may be esti?
mated that 2,000 really fell in the
course of twenty-one minntes. The
time of maximum thickness of the
shower was about 4.25. This is two
hours later than that given by the
European observations of last year,
showing a slight change in positiou
of tho stream.
ATTEMPT AT LYNCH LAW ON JOHN'S
ISLAND.-A NEOBO PINIONED BY OTHEB
NEGROES TO A TBEE AND ABOUT TO BE
EXECUTED.-A gentleman planting on
J olin's Island, who had been absent
some time from his pince, returned
one day last week, and, os ho neared
his dwelling, was mot by one of the'
female hands, who told him that there
was trouble on the place, and 'jointed
in the direction of the negro quar?
ters.
The proprietor immediately mount?
ed a mule and rode to tho poiut indi?
cated, where tho trouble was said to
exist. As he got there, ho discovered
a crowd of negroes gathered togother,
and, in the centre of the crowd, some
of whom wero armed with muskets,
saw before them, pinioned to a tree,
ono of tho hands. He inquired tho
canso of tho strange proceedings and
was informed that they wero "goiug
to make a sample of 'im, and scute
him; dat he had tief cotton." See
iug the trying situation in which tho
captivo was placed, he began to re?
monstrate with them, and told them
if they carried out their unlawful
purposes they would all be guilty of
murder, and would be made to suffer.
He then dismounted and approached
the terrified victim and cut loose the
cord which bound him and set him at
liberty, telling the infuriated mob
that they must bring the mau to his
house and he would hear tho com?
plaint, and, if reasonable, briug the
perpetrator of the theft before a pro?
per tribunal and have him punished.
They agreed to this proposition, and,
duly escorted by the armed guard
which had been selected to shoot him
to death, the poor wretch was carried
to tho proprietor's residence.
By common consent, ho was con?
fined in the baru until a magistrate
could be had from the city. The
proprietor then left, telling them to
leave the captive there until he pro?
cured the necessary legal instrument,
so that the case could undergo fair
and impartial investigation. There
is no doubt, whatever, that the cotton
thief woukl have been summarily
dispatched had not the proprietor ar?
rived io such a propitious season;
and to his timely presence alone is
due a prevention of that unusual and
extraordinary method of dispensing
justice. The cause of the difficulty
lies in the fact that a couple of the
hands were going to the cotton house
on just such an errand whinh sr
raigued the other, and, finding that
they had been anticipated in the
matter, resolved to clear their skirts
by arresting and bringing to a speedy
end the least adroit and cunning
rogno. We hope this affair will un?
dergo thorough investigation, and
these disorganizeT will be taught
that there is law in the laud for the
administration of justice, and that it
must not be dealt Out lightly by un?
authorized agents.

PUBUC MKBTTNGB.-On the Ant
Monday in thia month, a meeting
waa held at the Court House, itt this
placo, oom po sod of both the white
and oolored race. Speeches were
made by Colonel C. W. Dudley* tod
three oolored .men. A fow names
were proposed as candidates for the
Convention, but we were informed
that none wer?' nominated at this
meeting.
On the Saturday following, the 9th
instant, another meeting was held,
and several speeches were made by
both white and oolored. Only a few
Whites were in attendance. On this
occasion two candidates were Domi?
nated for the Convention, viz : Cal?
vin Stubbs and Jim Brutus, both
colored. No other candidates were
nominated. It seems, therefore, that
wo sfe to be represented in the Cou

their power.-Benneltsville Journal
SPOEOH FROM GEN. SHERMAN.-At
the annual mooting, in St. Louis, of
the Army of Tennessee, held a few
days since, the regular annual address
was delivered by Gen. Sherman, who
alluded, in a rather philosophical
view, to the causeB of the war, attri?
buting it mainly to the acts of ex?
treme men North and South; but
looked hopefully to the future, and
urged every man to do his duty as his
judgment prompted. He scouted the
idea of another attempt to destroy
the nation; and if such an effort
should be made, the next Northern
invasion of the South would not
morely devastate it but fructify and
regenerate it. There were no direct
political allusions made, but he took
a calm and conservative view of the I
present and future condition of the
country.
BISHOP LYNCH IN BOSTON.-The
Boston Post, of Monday last, says
The Right Rev. Bishop Lynch, of |
Charleston, South Carolina, preach?
ed yesterday forenoon and afternoon
at the Cathedral Chapel of the Holy
Cross, in aid of the public institutions
of Charleston, so nearly destroyed by
tho bombardment which that city
underwent for so long a time during
the recent war. There was a large
attendance at each service. His mis?
sion in Bostou was to solicit dona?
tions from the people of the North,
whom he believed were not aware to
what extent the destruction had been
carried by the war. These edifices
should be rebuilt and repaired, and
this cannot be done without gener?
ous contributions from tho North.
THE LIBERIAN EMIGRANTS.-Yes?
terday morning tho Liberian emi?
grants, 309 in number, were carried
bv the steamer St. Helena, from
Marshall's wharf, where they bad
boen encamped, to tho Golconda,
which lay in the stream. The agent
of the society, Mr. Wm. Coppiuger,
accompanied the emigrants, for the |
purpose of superintending the em?
barkation. The negroes were mostly
families from South-westeru Georgia,
ami were of all ages, many children
being among the unraber.

A YOUNG THIEF.-Yesterday morn?

Robert, who formerly belonged to
Mr. John Kiusler, was seen prowling
around Mr. McKenzie's confection?
ery. After a length of time, and
when the youngster had extended
his peregrinations behind the counter,
he was ordered off. Luckily, as he
was about to move off, the appear?
ance of tho money drawer attracted
attention, and on examination, it was
found that the contents had been ab?
stracted. The young imitator of Jack
Shepherd was immediately seized,
and after considerable resistance,
during which he used his teeth on
the arms of his captor, he was over?
powered, and the money recovered.
The police were sent for, when Chief
Radcliffe recognized the little thief
as an old offender, for whom he had
been on the lookout for some time.
Robert will, doubtless, wear a striped
