KT-Book and Job Printing of all kinda nromntlv and fuitlifnllw ?ti.niloJ Meeting of th.? Farmers anil Immlfrt tton Club at Bateavllle. ?ol. J. P. Thomas, of tbis city, doli-, vered an address before the above club,' on tho 23d ult. A correspondent of tho Edgefield Advertiser speaks of it as fol? lows: Gol. T. expressed his .acknowledgment for 'the honor of the invitation. He came to make no elaborate address, bat proposed, briefly, and in a suggestive way, to give bis Views on the subjects that concerned the Club. He regarded, the formation of an ngricniturol and im? migration club at Batcsville a good and wise movement. No interest was more important to tho wealth and general prosperity of tho State than tho agricul? tural. It was proper for this interest to rally and bestir itself-well for it to se-1 care the advantages that spring from or? ganized and systematic effort-well for it to exert tho inflnenco to which it was entitled. Gol. T. stated that among the many subjects of thought suggested by the oc? casion, none was moro important than that of labor. This seemed to bo the question of tho day. On this point Col. T. remarked that his views were very deeided. Ho regarded it unnecessary to refer in detail to the events of the last five years. We stood amid changed cir? cumstances. Ho was not there to rake up the ashes of past issues-to lament events that had passed into tho domain of history. It was a wise philosophy to accept, without sacrifice of principle, ac? complished facts, and to mould and fa? shion to our purpose such elements ns we might find around us. Let this bo done wisely, and discreetly, and energeti? cally, and it was often possible to elimi? nate what was obnoxious, establish what was advantageous, and out of chaos to bring order. Col. T. went on lo sny that n brief resolution which he had tho ho? nor to present in the late State Agricul? tural Convention concisely iudicated his opinions on tho labor question. He re? garded it tho policy of tho South to make the most of our present labor, and at the same time to reinforco ourselves with foreign and Northern white labor? ers as rapidly and as fully ns our means and opportunities shall allow. The ne? gro was in onr midst-he was on hand he nnderstood our modes of cultivation -his labor was cheap-politics aside, his control was easy. Although, therefore, he might often prove unreliable, and may become more so, we mast and would, from tho necessity of the case, utilize his labor-gire it fair encourage? ment-in fine, make the most of it. To undertake at once to throw this labor aside, to pronounce against it, would be folly; would be to give a bird ia the hand for two ia the bush. At the same time, whilst making the most of negro labor, Gol. T. was cordially and decided? ly in favor of introducing other labor in the Southern country. We needed, and greatly needed, additional labor. Sta? tistics show that only about 5 per cent, of the area of the Sooth was annually cultivated, and here iii South Carolina we hove 11,623,859 acres of unimproved land in farms to 4,582,060 acres of im? proved land in farms. The question was, what kind of labor was to bo in? vited and eucourged. This it was that was now engaging the minds of men in this section. Col. T. was aware that many very intelligent gentlomen looked for relief to the teeming millions of Chi? na, and advocated the introduction ol coolies into our midst. As for himself, he did not look for thc solution of thc problem in this field. He was not par? tial to the disciples of Jos; he wanted thc caro noitber of their persons nor theil bones. (Wo learn that ovory Chinnmai: who agrees to come over from Chine contracts to bo sent back, or in case ht dies, tho contractor ngrees to transpori his bones back to tho Celestial Empire! Col. T. thought that tho int?*odnotioi of coolie laborers into the cotton State: might lead to o mush-room growth-tc an evanescent prosperity. Bat uot ii this way, ho thought, was the fabric o Southera prosperity to be reared upoi an enduring basis. He took it fer grant ed that it was intended to bnild up thii Southern country, and to make it a do sirable country for ourselves, onr chii dren and our children's children. To d( so, considerations intellectual, social anc religious wero to bo considered. Wt wero now suffering embarrassments fron the presence iu our midst of a difierinj race. In his view, tho evil waa not to bi remedied by the introduction of yet an other race, widely removed from th white race in religion, tastes, manner and customs. We wauted hore a homo genoas people-a peoplo occupying th same social plane-a people who wouh identify tbemsolves with us, and mak coatributions of mindjuud morals as wei ns muscle and capital. Hence it is, remarked Col. T., that li looked for relief first to ourselves, aa next to the producers of tho North aa' of Northeru Europe. Let us welcom in our midst tho farmers of the Nort with their capital, their energy, aa their enterprise. Let us welcome to on genial climate and teeming soil tho gene rous Celt, tho hardy Scotch, the sturd Englishman. Above all, lot us send ovc to) Germany tho Macedonian ory t "come over aud help us;" for in th sober, industrious, steady German, w shall find the element that we need. No: said Col. T., is tho opportunity wantin for you promptly to avail yourselves i tho means of trying this new labor. Col. T. then referred to the workings | of the Newberry Immigration Society, and explained how, under its auspiaes, all {mrts of the State might obtain German aborers. Col. Thomas next proceeded to con? sider the remedy for the present scarcity of labor. Labor was now acareo. A full 1 supply could not be obtained at ouoe. Tho stream of immigration could not at once be rolled into the State. This was in part subordinated to time. In tho meantime, what was tho proper poli>-y to obviate thosenrcity of labor? Ho thought there wero severul romodies. First, to reduco tho urea under cultivation-to cultivate less, and cultivato more tho? roughly, and manure moro heavily. Se? cond, to resort to labor-saving imple? ments. Col. T. adverted to the fact that when half a million of men woro with? drawn from tho labor of tho North in tho lato war, their place was in a great measnro supplied by farm implements end machinery. Col. T. asked if his hearers bad ever fully reflected upon tho advantages of a labor-saving machine or implement. It was a laborer not to bo despised. Ho never rebelled-required no corn or bacon-no tea or sugar-but I was cheap, reliable-nover-failiug-ever ready. Theso labor-saving appliances | have given wealth to England; they have given wealth to tho North, and they will now give wealth to the South, and in part obviato tho difficulties that spring from a scarcity of human muscle. Col. T. next commented upon the poli? cy of diversifying our pursuits, which ho deemed essential to national wealth and development, and referred to tho great | importance of tho interests connected with factories and manufactories. This subject be thought was deserving of the special attention of tho agriculturists. These interests were intimately associated together, and it would be a happy day for South Carolina when agriculture and manufactures 6hnll march baud in hand to the regeneration of the State. Gol. Thomas next remarked, that dur? ing thc political canvass of last year, he was in the habit of suggesting to his fel? low-citizens that political success, to bo effective, must be followed up or attended by industrial development. Ho thought it his duty to say that he regarded tho proposition slightly transposed as no less true. He wonld not close without re? marking that industrial development must bo connected with political fidelity and activity. No intelligent white man can say that ho is satisfied with the present political status of South Carolina. Our condition, political, is of all conditions most miserable. He would not comment upon what was patent to every reflecting mind. Ignorance and corruption prevail in places high and low. A multitude of ] officers are eating up our substance, and we aro now paying the heavy tax imposed upon us by non-tax-payers. We bear these things because we cannot help ourselves, and let it be known that wo will endure them only so long as wo can? not relievo ourselves. Hence, remarked Col. T., it is our duty, by every consti? tutional and legal and peaceful method, to organize and work in political organi? zation until wo bring about the reign of intelligence and virtue, and restore our State to a cheerful and wholesomo self government. Nor, said Col. Thomas, should any mau despond or despair of ultimato tri? umph. I3y industrial energy and politi? cal activity, by a course of action mode? rate, resoluto and consistent, we shall get ont of tho wilderness, and yet enjoy an ora of peace 'and prosperity. "Oohrago. ho aaid, and pointed to the laud. Tliia mounting wave will bear us shoreward toon." Tho nddress was well received, the au? dience manifesting their approval by vigorous cheering several times during its doli very and at the conolusiou. An accident occurred on the Louisville and Covington Kailroad yesterday, by which two men were killed and seven? teen wounded. SUMMEE 3E3L* A ?3 OJ O IVE IE3 ! BLACK and FANCY ALPACA SACKS.

Tho oxlra pressure upon tho vital forces must bo nutt and coun? terbalanced by an extra resistautpower; the uuusual and rapid consumption of tho animal Huida by profuso porapiratiou, must be com? pensated by tho perfect digestion and assimi? lation of tho food talion itdo tho stomach, from which both thc fluids and solids of tho body aro derived.
