COLUMBIA.^ Saturday Morning, January ll. 1868. ?oe Hi ern siait^-Atiroctlon for *.";*.? , jTn* WUmington^ (Delaware) Com-' martial staten that there ia a very lars? emigration movement going on ?fa the farming communities of many <*f the Northern, and ?ven Western , States, to mor? congenial climates ?aid an easier tilled soil, and that lot . tera of inquiry fr ob no less than 300 parties bad bebn received by a single real estate agent in that city. Some <tt these letters, strange as it maj ap ?po?r. carno from Ohio, and from States farther West. That section of de country bas hitherto . attracted tb? great bulk of foreign emigration, .?mt it ie stated that complaints have already begun to reach Europe, that She wasteful tilling without any re itara cl fertilizers, is beginning to Hell evon upon the rich prairie soil. Whet with the distance from market, and the difficulties of transportation, agriculture there is getting on .a par with, that of the Eastern Slates. In a series of letters lately Addressed by Mr. Henry C. Garey, of Philadelphia, a celebrated political essayist, to Senator Wilson, of Mas? sachusetts, upon the industrial, finan? cial and political condition of the ?oun try, MT. Carey devotee one letter to the .superiority of the South as an agricultural country to the North, .xmd oven the West. He expresses Vke opinion that "the day is at hand when emigration to the South and South-west must take the place now occupied by emigration to the West, ?ad when power is to pass from the poor soil of the North-east to those richer ones. which now offer them - ?elves in such abundance in the centee, tho South and the South? west.'''-' He says that the great West, Jdtherto called the "granary of the , world,*' has now so little food to /.pare, that the whole amount of oar ?export is much less than is now re? quired for payment of the mere inte? rest npon debts contracted in Europe for cloth and iron. Mr. Osrey gives ;8ome interesting details, setting forth Hie superior quality of Southern whrat and flour over those of the "Fcith and West, and the higher pri?e they command in all the markets of the world, and the .earlier harvest, and the cheap and easy shipment, which enable it tc forestall the West in foroign demand, fie contends that it is not wheat alone for which the North is likely to bc compelled to look to the South, bul in leading vegetables and the bes! food for stock. It is impossible tc read -this letter of Mr. Carey's with out seeing, to use his own language, that, "turn in what direction we may, in the South, we find that nature hai provided for that diversification o: demand for human services for whicl two look in vaiu amid tho fields o northern States." When these fact become generally known and realizec ia the Northern States and abroad emigration to the South will be foun< ?a moro practicable method for th? solution of difficult sectional ques ?ions, and for the preservation o .civilization in that region, than an; which has yet been suggested. I) looking for a less severe climate am milder winters, (inducements whicl ore prompting the emigration move ment in the North,) combined witl fertility o' soil, variety of agricultu ral productions, railroads, rcligiou privileges, healthfulness of climat and cheap lands, South Carolina pre sen ts advantages which are not sui passed by any other Stato of th Union. -? ? - At a recent firemon's celebratio in Charleston, tho following ingeniou ?od appropriate toast, bringing ii the name of every white Aro com .pony in the city, was offered: Our Guests of the Fire Lcparlmei 'Sf City of Charleston: With i Pioneer in Ch/irleston, moy we eve "r^;5?? "av? uu oye M Vig?an? a the Eatjle to the interests of on Palmetto State, and may we alway revere tho memory of our revolution ary hero, Marion. Young America i proud of her German element, an esteems her Washington. Therefor? .we trust that no volcanic AUtna ma ever disturb the harmony of feel in that should exist amongst ns, for w should, like a Phoenix rising from th flameo, with renewed energy- hatti with tho destructive olement, discord ;and stand firm as the Stonewall in t?a .discharge of duty. "--J?ifflBM|i;' Ge?. Beast Baller lias come to the conclusion that confiscation, after all, ( would lie a measure of very-doubtful utility. In a recent speech to -the colored people in Washington, the I New York times states that ho said ! that "it does not seem to be a good thing to give away laud-a thing that does not coat anything is generally valueleB8''-^?specially, he might have i added, if you rob somebody ol it in order to give it away to somebody else. There is a good deal of truth in the-principie asserted by the Gene? rali and it applies to sh good many things besides land. But we wish he had begun a little earlier to inoulcate those excellent sentiments in the minds of the colored people. He might, have saved them from some ' misapprehensions and unfounded ex? pectations, which have misled them a good deal, and involved them in not a little trouble. The Tennessee Legislature has veted to "abolish all distinctions of color." The question now is whether the blacks are to be bleached or the whites to be painted. .^CONSTRUCTION.-The Washing? ton correspondent of tho New York Times, writing on the 7th, says: "The country may confidently ex? pect new and important legislation on the reconstruction question at an early day. The resolution of Mr. Upson and the significant amendment of Mr. Boutwell, both members of the 3econ8truction Committee, yes? terday, indicate that that Committee is in sympathy with the objects of the resolution. It now looks os though a bill would be reported creating one grand military district of the ten Southern States, with Gen. Grant in ohief oommand, giving him all power over the snb-military dis? trict commanders, even to their ap? pointment and removal, as well as to the revision or approval of their action. Some project of this charac? ter will unquestionably be agreed upon as necessary to counteract the effect of the interference by the Pre? sident, heretofore and hereafter." < * - No HELP FROM THE SUPREME COUBT.-The Washington corres? pondent of the Baltimore Gazette says: "I hear unpleasant rumors in re? spect to the cases which have come up from the South to the Supreme Court, designed to test the validity of the Reconstruction Acta. It is likely impediments may be thrown in the way by doubts as to which side of the docket the Government may deem it its dnty to be placed and re? cognized by the Cuurt." The imports of dry goods at the port of New York for the pa?t year show a heavy falling off, as compared with those of the previous year-the total value was$86,263,043, while for 1866 it was $126,222,855. The larg? est receipts were during the months of January, March and August. The total thrown upon tho market during the year was $91,242,975, while the total imports being, as above stated, $86,263,643, show a marked reduc? tion in the stock previously held in bond. The immense losses during the past year will induce great cau? tion in the future, and it is generally conceded that the imports this year will be light. In 1859, the imports of dry goods at New York amounted to $113,152,624, and in 1860 to $103, 927,100; but in 1861, tho first year of the war, they ran down to as low as $43,636,689. They then gradually roso till 1866, and now again, for 1867, show a falling off of some $40,000,000. SUICIDE OF A UNION LEAGUER.-We learn that, on Sunday last, B. Liston, an Englishman, who, for some ten or fifteen years, has been teaching the oung idea how to shoot in Williams urg and Sumter Listricts, shot him? self with a pistol at Kingstree, caus? ing his instant death. For som o time past, Liston has been a promi? nent leader of the Union League, and was one of its officers. At the burning of tho soldiers' hospital near Augusta, Me., on Sun? day night, tho inmate3 got hold of a barrel of whiskey, and most of them became drunk, when a general fight ensued, in which one-legged and one-armed individuals were tho prin? cipal combatants. Gae of them froze to death while drunk. A French paper supposes that a whale may bo only an antediluvian sardine, but things it fortunate that men aro deprivpd of thia faculty of unlimited growth. "At the present price of bread," it saya, "aman eighty feet high would bo the ruin of any family." The Selma (Ala.) Times states that it is informed, on good authority, that largo land-holders in Qreone Coaty are offering to give the use of their plantations for next year to any one that will agree to pay the taxes on them.

The politicians and partisan news? papers bekin to be very busy.1 about the Presidential election. In Wash? ington, the foons of plots, ; schemes and bargaining, they are beth active and greatly puzzled. They are trot? ting'out the various candidates and, prominent public men to try . their mettle and points, of qualification. Grant, Chase, Butler, Hancock, Sey? mour, Pendleton and a nnmbor of others, are put through their paces and examined. These short-sighted politicians are foolish enough to sup? pos? the approaching election is,to jbe.decided upon the merits or popu? larity of individuals alone. Never was there a greater mistake. They ! aro burrowing lu the ground like blind moles, when there is one great I highway to march along in broad day I light. They are spending their time uselessly upon side issues and little party schemes, when there is a great issue before the eoufitry winch in? volves the very struoture of our po I liticul and social existence. The negro, as an element of politi I cal power, and ultimately as an ele? ment in our social life, is the vital and paramount question of the time. Upon this the Presidential election must turn, and men-heroes of the war or prominent politicians-will amount to nothing with the people when they will be called upon tc solve it next November. It will over? shadow all others, and the public mind is ripening fast for the issue. Congressmen, managing politicians, the partisan press, and even the sharr. newspaper correspondents at Wash? ington, do not see the bearings oi this mighty question and the iuovita hie solution of it in November. The balderdash about rebels anc rebellion, when thero are not nuO cannot be such things in existence is simply ridiculous. No one is weal enough to believe the old rebels ar< not effectually squelched, or that the] ever "dream of raising their head! again. The people are tired witl such radical trash, and it is sc tho roughly played out that it cunno have any influence hereafter. Tin great question, then, is as to th? status of the negro, politically anc socially, in this country. Shall tin semi-barbarous negro, just cmauci pated from slavery, hold the balauci of power-nay, become the coutroll iug power-in tho republic? Shal this ignorant and brutal people-tin Jowest type of the human race-but weight the votes of the white peopl and control the destiny of tho repnb lie? Shall the proud Caucasian rac -the highest typo of mankind-b put in subjection to a people litth removed from burbar in mV It is im possible. The mind of every whit man or woman revolts at such a idea. It is contrary to nature, repug? nant to their sense of decency, an utterly subversive of the whole polit cal and social fabrio of our country Yet this is the great issue before th country. This is the question to h settled at the coming Presiden th election. Who can doubt tho result The issuo is represented on on hand by our radical Congress and pc liticians. The whole frame-work c Congressional reconstruction is bose ou giving the negroes political powc in the South, with the view of coi trolling the Government. The objet is to make 3,000,000 or 4,000,000 ( barbarians a political clement to ru the destinies of 30,000,000 of whit people through the balance of pow? they would hold. All the hypocrit cal talk about humanity and mnnkin being free and equal is sheer not sense. It is simply a question of p< litieal power with the radicals. C the other hand, is the|conservativ wiso aud consistent policy of Pres dent Johnson to restore the Unie upon the basis of a whito man's Gi vernment, as it was originally estai lished, and as every sensible mo believes it should exist. He wish' to give every protection to the n groes under their new-born liber and every opportunity to eleva themselves in the scale of civilizatio: So do the masses of the white pe pie, both North and South. But 1 is opposed to making these benight* people a controlling political eleniei in the Republic. He knows, as \ all know, that this is utterly repu nant and would bo dangerous. I knows that this would lead to gre social evils. The negroes, with p litical ?>ower in their hands in tl South, would soon insist upon soci equality and poss law? to bring th about. The leading blocks in ai out of the Southern conventions ta very boldly of this. Tho negro mi want white wives, and are lookii forward to such a result of their ne ly acquired position. Over two yea the President has stood firmly at boldly on this vital issue against radical Congress. He, therefore, the representative of the princi; which is now going before tho cou try. His messages and conduct co stitute the only platform on whi the conservatives can conduct t Presidential contest. He has, 1 great sagacity and remarkable fin ness, overthrown the radicals, and 1 is now master of the situation. ] cannot be ignored, for he and 1 policy form the controlling object the coming political revolution. ] mudl either oe the candidate or ma one.

The wonder of a New York town is a well, the water In which is covered with ice, though sixty feet below the surface. The most .plausible expla? nation is that last year's cold has just got down there. In the city of Brooklyn there were, erected last year, 8,370 dwelling houses, besides twenty-oue churches and a number of school:?, manufacto? ries and other buildings. Two of those frogs that Uve in solid rock and hop off so merrily when their pre-Adamite sleep is brokeu. have been blasted into this world down in Maine.

According to the New Orleans Times, at tho brokers' dinner iu that city, the toast was given: "General Butler-the only living representa? tive of the wealth of New Orleans." The deposits at the United States mint, during tho year ending June 30, 1867, amounted to S31,535,006.39; the coinage to 819,005,048.54. The State -census of Iowa, just completed, gives the population of the State at 902,010-a gain of 117,000 in two years. Steady work at track-laying on the Union Pacific Railroad has been sus? pended for the season. Two seals were seen ou a cake of ice in Newport (Rhode Island) har? bor, a day or two since. Lawyers, editors and idiots are ex? empted from serving on jnries in Montana. Prentice says that if the hard times continue, men's clothing may as well bo made without pockets. 0BITUABY.
