COLUMBIA, S. C. - , ff--?. . T -?-'-T~ Saturday ??orning, April 16,1870. Tfae Valu? of Imml?rollon (O tlio Sou tit. In Commodore M. F. Maury's recent letter to Mr. Wm. Lav?ton, in reference to the Charleston -May Convention, the Commodore /-very properly places much stress upon tho value to the Sooth of foreign immigration. He alindes first to the strong prejudices in the minds of European immigrants against the South, and to remove this prejudioo, he holds, is one of tho tasks boforo ns. Next, he suggests, that this move for immigrants must not be left to the present Legisla? tures in ibo South, but should enlist the united efforts, of the whole Southern people. ThiB is an important sugges? tion. Commodore Maury, in the next place, alludes to the vast importance of European immigration. Ho remarks, that tbis.it is which has put the North so far ahead, of the South in wealth and population. In 1790, the difference in population between the two sections, was but 10,OOQ, and although natural increase hos been in favor of the South, yet the difference now amounts to 10,000,000 or 15,000,0001 We agree with Mr. Maury that the putting of foreign immigration in motion;will draw ofter it moro benefits than any mensure yet proposed to the South since she laid down her arms. As ho otates, it will bring UB labor, wealth aud power, lesson taxation, and bring with it direct trade. This matter bf im? migration will como up bofore the May Convention, in Charleston. Let ds hope that the ball may be put in motion. The laurels arenow waiting for him who shall offer a Well-digested, working sob?me, whereby tho flow of European immigra? tion shall bo directed to these Southern fields Here is an industrial movement that strikes nt tho very root of om- em? barrassments. Here is tho pa th-way leading to Southern regeneration and a more prosperous era than any that has yet dawned upon this Southland. Who will lead iii this field of great endeavor? Who will give us the way and means? Let PATRIOTISM take this thing to heart, and earnest THOUGHT seek to solve the problem, j CONDITION AND PKOSPEOT OF THE SOUTH. The Mobile Register says that it is mar? velous how the South has risen in five years from what was apparently complete prostration to great prosperity, and tc promise far greater. Southern credil has been re-established on a firm basis, and advances are made with a confidence equal to anything that preceded the darli days of 1861. Cotton bas mounted hit throne and is again "king." He was i orownless monarch five years ago, and nowi wo are told, his last year's crop was 2,700,000 commercial bales, or 3.000.00C bales of 400 lbs. each, in value equal te 8800,000,000. Late despatches from Cal cutta announce that the Earl of Mayo Governor-General of India, is making i tour of the cotton-growing districts o that country, urging upon the people th? necessity of the increased cultivation o ootton in order to compete successfully with the United States. England hat long been engaged in such efforts, bu has no better prospect of success nov than before. The Mobile Register tolls ns, also, tha Virginia, in 1869, sold 100,000 tons o her.products, while her mines of iron coal, lead, copper and gypsum "are nov worked more satisfactorily than over be fore;" that South Carolina paid an in ternal revenue tax of $2,500,000, and i State tax of 81,000,000, and greatly rc duccd her debt; that twenty great rail roads are constructing in the two Caro linas, Georgia and Florida, whilo Dela ware, Maryland, West Virginia, Mis souri, Arkansas, Texas, Louisiana, Mis sissippi and Alabama have about fort] new lines uudcr woy; that the tobacci orop of last year amounted to 225,000, 000 pounds, valned at 837,000,000, th rice crop 55,000 tierces, being an increns of 20,000 over the preceding year, uni the sugar orop 80,000 or 85,000 hogs heads, against 37,647 for 1867. Th prospect for the coming year is believe to be even brighter. Immigration i adding variety and quality of skille labor, and if the whites could bo ec franchised as well as tho blacks, ther would be general harmony and conten) EAST AND WEST.-The Baltimoro Qc zelte has little hope of a reaction in th West so long as New England rules thn Eart of the country, as well as the South y emissaries called Senators and Con grossmen. Tho Gazette says: "We have no faith whatever in anj thing the Western people can do, unti they make nn entire change in thei representatives. When they send t Congress Western men-men raoy of th soil and impregnated with Western ideo -a different systom of fioanoe and a bel ter system of revenue may possibly b carried into effect. At present, by dit of persistent self-assertion, and by it sidiou8 politioal combinations for purel selfish ends, the East is paramount i Congress, and will continue to can matters there with a high baud until i ascendant is successfully disputed, an the advocates of monopolies are pt down by men who will not abandon the convictions of what is best for the we fare of the wholo conn try, to serve tl interests of party and the greed e clique:) and speculators. But that tin has not yet come." K? Klux, Rifle?, &c. MB. EDITOB : A oorre?j>o?<3enJt ol the., Republican, wrjting? mm W>fj place, under ?ato of llth inst., undertakes to vindicate Governor Scott in j the "Win?} ohesW Rjflo" aifair,. by |hrowirf? mod at the white people of South Carolina. In the course of bis remarks he says some things that I desire to notice through ? your columns. He introduces into bis vindication a brief but brilliant epistle from David G. .Robertson to Governor Scott, which runs as follows: "SUMTER, S. C., April 10, 1870. "7b Bis Excellency E. K~. Scott. "GOVERNOR: I respectfully ask you to send a few men into Sumter County. IJ would like two men sent to my house, as the Ku Klux are still organized, and the | colorod people have no protection, Sec., Seo. ? "Very respectfully, your obedient servant, DAVID G. ROBERTSON." The writer under review tells bis readers, immediately under this letter, that "this Mr. Robertson is a brother of Hon. T. J. Robertson, member of the United States Senate from this State." This ho does, I presume, for the samo reason that an amateur artist, who had made a drawing of such nniquo appear? ance that it might bave been worshipped without violating that part o? the first commandment which forbids the worship of the likeness of anything in beaven above, or in the earth beneath, wrote under ,his picture: "This is a cow." It appears to me, that any man who should read-the letter of Mr. Robertson, with? out knowing any more about bim than he could glean from it, would immedi? ately conclude .that he was a member of the colored "persuasion,'.' for whom tho intensely radical Oounty of Sumter affords "no protection. ? should say, from a knowledge Of the political status of Sumter, coupled with the wording of that epistle, that there is the largest kind of a "nigger in the wood-pile," if we could only find him. T think I see the woolly end of him. What a formidable organization the Sumter Ku Klux must have, that it requires two of Scott's riflemen to protoct the tenants of one house from their ferocious attacks. I should say, by all means, Governor Soott ought to send the two men, and suggest that the correspondent of the Republican be one of them, and that he goes armed with a "Winchester Rifle," and a very large squirt-gun. The occupants of tho tenement, which requires so strong a guard, might find the squirt-gun very useful, after the descent of the Ku Klux, about the post occupied by the valiant knight in question. Governor Scott will doubtless be the recipient of numerous letters similar to this one of Mr. Robert? son's, during the approaching summer and fall, all designed for the same pur? pose, i. e., to create the impression that there is a necessity for the militia to be sent out with their "Winchester Rifles," to keep the peace. This correspondent wonders if a cer? tain "South Carolina gentleman," whom he ' introduces into bis epistle, "ever stood by, and with a heart Calloused by nature, and hardened by custom, and without a compunction of conscience, watched the lash descend, cutting deep iuto his own flesh and blood." Here is a lover of peace and quiet, is he? Oue who wauts to see peace and harmony re? stored to this distracted country. And how does he propose to effect that great and most desirable object? Why, by contemptiblo appeals to the basest, most ignoble passion of our corrupted nature that of revenge. He hopes, by a con? tinual re-opening of old wounds, to foster and perpetuate a spirit of hatred in tho breast of the former slave, who was made such by Yankee cupidity, towards his former owuer. Tho man who can con? descend to such an execrable course, ought to bo sent to board with General Stoibrand, "for bis country's good." I wonder, also; and what is my wonder? Why, I wonder if the writer in question ever trod the soil of Massachusetts in his childhood? I wonder if bo over heard of Boston, the city from which between 1,700 and 1,800 white children ore sont annually to the tombs, and of which unfortunate class, the judgo of the police court of that city declared, on tho 23d of May, 18G5, "not moro than au average of ono in thirty over saw a Bible, or learned what it told of." The same city, of which the same judgo said, ou tho samo day: "Ono-?fth of all the children of this city are under tho in? fluen?a of the school of destitution, de? bauchery and crime." This is the land whoso orators are eloquent in depioting and deploring tho unhappy condition of tho poor of the South; and which sends forth its swarms of philanthropic carpet? baggers iuto every nook and corner of the South, Uko a swarm of devouring locusts, to eat up the substance of our people, and to vilify and abuso us, be? cause wo have sense enough to see through their shallow tricks, and courage enough to oxpose them, and solf-rospect enough to loathe and contemn the mise? rable creatures who, vampyre-like, are sucking our lifo blood. Let them go homo and place their own perishing children in comfortable circumstances; give them food, clothing and shelter; let them banish the monstrous crime of foeticide from their own borders, which their own writers say is a crying evil there; and then let them oomo with clean hands and pure hearts to the work of renovating our country, which they have made desolate. FIDES. A colored man, named George Mitch? ell, eighty years old, living near Abbe? ville, got stuck in the mud, a few days since, and could not get out. The Coro? ner returned a verdict to that effect. In an epio recently published by a young Frenoh poet in Paris, occurs the following: "Those blood-thirsty mon? sters, the accursed of all ages to come, the Attilas, the Haynaus, the Butlers!" If you want a fine appetite and good digestion use Dr. Tutt'a Golden Eagle Bitters. Gorircapondenc? of tlio Phoenix. .. WASHINGTON, D. C., April 14, 1870. It ia.rather a startling fact that there ara no% pending before the two Honses of Congress, bills proposing to give away to railroads 700,000,000 acres of the public domain. This amount will comprit^ on area of more than the origi? nal thirteen States. The amount which has been granted to the four Pacific roads, as appears by the records of the Land Office, is 127,000,000. Jay Cooke & Co. have advertised the bonds of ono of these roads with a statement from tho engineer, that the land grants were more than sufficient to build the entire road. From this it appears that Congress is building the roads, while private indi? viduals-capitalists-are reaping the benefit. Great preparations have been made in this city for the celebration of tho adop? tion of the fifteenth amendment to-duy. Quite a farce was played in tho House on Monday upon this subject. A resolu? tion passed the House, allowing the colored people tho use of tho Hall of Representatives upon the occasion of the celebration; but later in the day, the boys in blue, aa almost exclusively co? lored organization, ascertaining that Mayor Bowen and his olique had pro? cured the adoption of tho resolution, and that the day did not agree with the day which they had selected, appeared before the House Committee, and suc? ceeded in having the r?solution rescind? ed. This is considered another defeat of the May or by the reformers. The Mayoi and his friends will now be compelled to join in with tho reformers, or be con? sidered bolters, and still further lose caste with the colored people. An investigation of the charges which Hon. Fernando Wood has preferred against Geueral Howard, will be com? menced in the Houso to-day. Those who have visited Washington,, within thc past year or two, and who have ridden out the Seventh street pike, cannot fui. to have noticed the imposing structure just beyond the Park, known as Howard't University. This structure stands in the back ground and is relieved by a very handsome residence, having a Mansarc roof, and built apparently of a new briol resembling granite. This residence i; owned by General Howard. When the General left Maine to engage in the late C?A? war, he was a poor school-teacher He has been in the army from that timi to this, and bas only bad his salary te livo upon. Several years ngo ho was io duced by a brick company to try the nev brick of which Howard University ii built, and of which his own house ii apparently built. It will be remcmberee that a portion of tho University building tumbled down, and that a oommissiot appointed to oxamino into the matter re ported the entire structure dangerous und liable to be washed down by hare rains. Tho General took the preoautioi in building his own houso to use a lininj made of ordinary brick for safety, whili the patent brick was used for ornamen and for deception. The General ha lived ; been generous and benevolent entertained, and has bought proport; and built a house which cost more thai all the money, perhaps, that he has rc ceived for bis services iu tho army. Th" would not seem strange for a mau in th business walks of life, but it does seen passing strange for one who, while liviuj upon a salary, professes to be tho walk ing personification of perfection. W cannot surmise what the result of thi investigation will be, for we are so usei to seeing tho whitewash brush employe in painting rainbows, we would not b surprised to seo it cast in mid-day, dazzling halo around the head of thi illustrious Chief of the Freedman' Bureau. If Adam, being a Republican were before a Republican committee, h would be exculpated for eating the foi bidden fruit, on the ground that sac diet is constitutional; while if Nebuchad nezzar were before the?same committee being a Democrat, he would be sentence to the penitentiary for eating grass, o the ground tbnt such diet is not constiti tional, "vox Populi, xox dei." Per r< quest of Mr. Wood, Joseph H. Bradley Esq., of this city hus been retained t conduct tho prosecution. It will bo rc membered that Mr. Bradley is* the genth mau who was dismissed from practioin in the District Courts, by order of th D. C. Supreme Court, for indeccr language used toward Judge Fisher, du ing the John Barratt trial. Bat few realize tho amount of work I bo performed in the Census Bureau i Washington for tho next three year General Walker, its Superintendent, wit his small force, has been actively engage duriug the past two months, arrangic and putting in order, sending out to tl United States Marshals in tho sever States preliminary instructions prepar tory to a commencement of the censa taking, on the first of June. Allowin that it may only requiro this year, as suggested by Secretary Cox, the Ban: number that were employed in 186 which was 4,417, with the probable esl mated population of the United Stat and Territories at the present time to 1 40,000,000, it will be seen that tl uverage number of persons to bo entere by each numerator will be 9,555, < nearly one-fourth greater than in 186 With the utmost care both in 1850 ai in 1860 in so sub-dividing the marsh districts, with a view to an cqualizatic of the labor and compensation arnot the numerators, it was found, after a very inequitable; and whatever the U might be, and with any division thi might make, it seems, after a thorouj investigation of the subject, that the would still exist the samo difficulty, a country like ours, it is impossible vary tho sub-divisions in extent of si face and population to suit all the oth conditions of a thorough enumeratio and a just distribution of the compeni tion among all the assistants under t existing law, allowing tho assistants ti cents per capita for eaoh name enrolled, ten cents for.eaoh.farm entered, and ten conta for every milo traveled in the per? formance of their lahore. Abd for that rea ion the Secretary has suggested a bill whioh is now before Congress, that pro? vides additional appropriation of fifty percent, for taking the census, to bo Used to equalize the compensation of the numerators. The funding bill, as passed the Senate, is now before the House Committee and subject to tho fullest discussion. It does not meet tho views of a majority, and it can be safely predicted that it will undergo several obaoges before it is re? ported to the House. To reduce the taxation of the national banks with a view to encourage them to bank on a lower rate of interest, would be as much loss in revenue to the Government as tho Government would save by the low rate of interest. It is rumored that a compromise has been agreed upon in the Georgia matter, to the effect that in lieu of the Bingham amendment, a substitute be offered for the consideration of Congress, for un election to be held in September, for au election of a now Legislature, and subse? quently tho State may apply for repre? sentation in Congress. Tho substitute will be strougly opposed by the Demo? crats and tho Bingham faction. Tho Government of the United States, for the calendar year 18G9, collected tux on manufactured tobacco, snuff and cigars, in round nnmbers, about $28, 000,000. Allowing the population of the United States to be at present d0,000,000, this would give a tax of less than seventy five cents per capita. The population of Great Britain, including Wales, Scotland and Ireland, is about 28,000,000, and they are reported to have derived from tobacco a revenue of $27,000,000, being a little less than $1 per capita. In a me? morial addressed by the Executive Com mittee of the National Tobacco Associa? tion to Congress, it is stated that the tax collected per capita on tobacco manu? factured in the United States is nearly three times that of any country in the world. Mr. Solomon, desirous of extensively introducing the "Old Carolina Bitters" it being a most excellent tonic as well as a pleasant beverage-keeps an urn con? stantly filled on his counter, for the con? venience of all persons desirous of test? ing their virtues before purchasing. This preparation bas been extensively used by some of the principal families in thc Stato, who guarantee its purity and effi? cacy. The barracks and chapel connected with the "Western Military Academy," at Newcastle, Kentucky, of which Geu. E. Kirby Smith is principal, was burned on tho 10th. The fine dwelling house of tho General, contiguous to the same, was saved. In order that the merits of the "Old Carolina Bitters" shall be fully tested, and every person bo benefitted by them, Mr. Solomon will give it gratuitously to such persons in ill health as are una? ble," from indigent circumstances, to purchase thom. A difficulty occurred in Pine Apple, Wilcox County, Georgia, on Sunday last, between two brothers, named John and William Douglass, in whioh the former was instantly killed, by a knife in the hands of the latter.
