Immigration.
In pnrsnanee of the published notice,
public meeting was held on Monday
last, 12th instant, to consider the question
of Immigration. The Committee appointed
at the previous meeting submitted
their report, which was adopted, and is as
follows;
"The Committee to whom it was referred,
at a late meeting of the citizens of
Kershaw County to report a scheme, for
the consideration of this adjourned meeting,
to induce immigrants to settle in Kershaw
County, beg leave respectfully to
report:
That the condition qf political, financial
and material affairs in the Stato of South
;? anoK n* should. while it muY
well nigh appal the inhabitants of this
* State, awaken the deepest interest and
sympathy in the hearts of all civilized
people, and eepeoially those of our sister
States.
That condition, and the causes that have
produced it, it would seem idle to consider
and explain?they are known and recognised
by all who intelligently reflect upon
the subject. It is sufficient to say, that
with a salubrious and delightful climate,
a most fertile soil, peaceful and orderly
citizens, conveniences and blessings of

among as?yet, if left to themselves. unaided
by the influx of good citizen? of
other States or foreign shores, the condition
of the respectable people of this State
is intolerable in the present, and hopeless
in the future.
The rescue, impossible to us alone, is
easy with such aid.
Three times withiu a century, did the
peopleof.this District, at a bound, spring
forward from a position of depression and
pemrty to that of affluence.
At the fourth trial, they entered upon

to contribute what wc may to preserve this
from a position which is a reproach to the
civilisation of the age, aud to that end we
commend to this meeting the following
Resolutions:
1. That we cordially invite good citizens,
regardless of political opinions, from
every State in the United States and from
foreign shores, to oome among ns to share
the blessings of our soil and climate, assuring
all gold inen and women of kindly J
welcome, and such aid as lies in our power, j
2. That this meeting do forthwith pro-i
ceed to organise a Land and Immigration
Society, with the object of inducing immigrants
to settle among us, by donating
lands to them or leasing to them on long
and favorable terms.
3* That the par value of each share
shall be fifty dollars. Ten dollars to be
DStd in cash, at an early date, and ten dol
iurs very sixty days until the whole be |
paid.
4. That when the sum of five thousand
dollars ($5,000) shall have been subscribed,
the Chairman of this meeting shall
call the subscribers together to organize
and proeeed to work.
5. That an Executive Committee of
ten be appointed which is authorized to
collect subscriptions to be applied by them
to thepurpoee of immediately introducing
immigrant* into this County".
On motion of Gen. Kershaw, the following
resolution was adopted:
Resolved, That the Chairman of this
meeting appoint a Committc of three persons
in each School District in this County,
who shall be requested to co-operate
in their neighborhoods with the efforts
proposed to be made to forward the purposes
of this meeting.
In acoordance with these resolutions
these committees were appointed, whose
names will be found published elsewhere.
This important movement may now he
considered fairly launched, the mode of
action proposed is entirely practicable, and
the only thing lacking is that our people
should take hold with the proper spirit
and success is certain.
We imagine that uo argument is necessary,
as it certainly should uot be to sensible
people, to prove the paramount importance
of this movement to promote immigration.
Not only is progress impossible
without something of this character; if we
fold our hands in indifference, and let
things take their own course, we must retrograde
and sink, until ruiu swallows us
up.
QOur condition is bad enough, I ut no 1
people can be finally destroyed, unless '
they deliberately choose to do nothing. 1
What really distresses and alarms the pa- '
triotic and public-spirited man is to see '
apa^iy, indifference, and apparent despair 1
stealing upon his fellow-countrymen.?
Shall it bo said that tbo people of Kershaw (
County uill not do anything for their own i
salvafinh? Vnloss'they rouse themselves, I
this condemnation must he be passed upon v
tiiem. K<>r twn weeks the question of iui- S
migration has been agitated. Notice was 1;
given of one meeting, which was held, and )
another appointed This second,'which p
should have heen a mass-meeting, and
would have been such, if things were considered
in their proper light, was but r
slimly uttonded. Nevertheless, those who c
were present showed that they were thor- 1
oughly in earnest, and it was manifestly s
their intention that something more than '
adopting resolutions and appointing com- 1
uiittees should be accomplished. The want 1
of public spirit and the short-sighted poli- '
cy of some people arc perfectly astonish- 1
ing. Frightened by the over-shadowing 1
cloud of taxation, and oppressed with the
care of supplying each day's necessities,
they seem unwilling to risk anything,
however small, towards the accomplishment
of future good, and afraid to undertake
any enterprise, unless it appears entirely
free from difficulties, and unless its
effects can be presented ready-made to
their hands, without any effort upon their
part
It has become common with many to
say, in a repising tone, that Providence
has forsaken our country, because of the
many disasters of the last few years. It
is very true, that, as a people, we have had
a hard and discourging time. Rut this must
not prevent us from seizing, with zeal
and energy, any opportunity of ameliora
ting our condition. We are not responsible
for the lack of opportunity, but when
the occasion is presented, and we fail to
improve it, the blame is entirely upon us.
r? ? j ?;n
II we irui noi rn/ iu uu uii^uunj; nv nm
soon find that Providence has in fact forsaken
us
Every man. who wishes to see our eoun,
try built up. and his own lands appreciating
iu value, can assist. The Immigration
Society can bring an immigrant from
New York to Camden for about 813. The
planter, who desires a laborer, can procure
, one by advancing this amount, which will
be deducted from his wages at the end of
the year. The better plan will be for our
largo land-holders to settle the immigrants
upon small farms of their own,
and assist them until they arc able to pay
for the land. The enhanced value of what
is left, would much more than repay the
proprietor for giving away some of his
land to the immigrant.
When once the stream of immigration
shall have been turnod toward the South,
and thriving and contented communities
of foreigners shall have been established,
we can leave matters to take care of themselves.
Many things have combined t?
ore vent a larire influx of foreigners among
us. Before the war, our peculiar institution
of slavery, with the system of labor
and character of society which it produced,
prejudiced the outside world agaiust
us. tiitico emancipation, we have been
made the victims of abuse and malicious
misrepresentation by our enemies. We
I must remove the wrong impressions thereby
pnnluced. When we can convince the i
forcigucr that he is welcome, if he comes j
to make his homo among as, and live by
honest toil, that his rights of person and
property, and his dignity as a man are
sacred, that his political and religious
opinions and prejudices constitute no bar-1
rier to his success, we may leave thcji
advantages of our soil and climate to do (
the rest.
The effort is being sedulously made in ^
souie quarters to prejudice the minds of
the colored people against the immigra- t
tiou movement, it being represented to c
theui that the white people wish to supplant
theui as laborers, and crowd them
out of the country.
This cry is raised by those who trem- ;
ble for their party ascendancy. This is
of mure importance than the welfare of r
the country to them, and therefore argu- ^
uieut would he useless and wasted upon c
them.
There is room enough in South Caro- o
linn for all of its citizens, anH thousands ?
more. The colored man is a useful la* j
borer, and in many localities cannot be n
dispensed with. J J is relations with the ji
white man arc of a kindly and cordial na*
turc. in everything except polities, lie P
and his leaders are responsible for what* (
ever of antagonism exists. ^
Whatever benefits the country must ei
help all of the people, 'flic thorough cul- Ci
ti vat ion of constantly widening fields, the
building and growth of towns and cities, n

fourteenth amendment to the Federal
const iiuuun as pari, ui mat liisn umcui,
and desire in good faith to abide by its
provisions as expounded by the Supreme
Court of the United States, and that the
amendment thus construed is the supreme
law of the land, and should be obeyed
and respected by all the co-ordinate departments
of the government; that the
bill now boforc Congress, known as the
civil rights bill is in violation of this
amendment as interpreted by the Supreme
Court; is an infringement on the constitutional
and legislative powers of the States;
is sectional in its operation and injurious
alike to the white and colored population
of tho Southern States; and that its enforced
application in these States will
prove destructive of their systems of education
and the enlightenment of the colored
population, in whose improvement
the people of Virginia take a lively interest,
and will produce continued irritation
between the races, counteract the pneifi
cation and development now happily progressing,
repel immigration, greatly augment
emigration, reopen wounds now almost
healed, engender new political asperities,
and paralyze the power and influence
of the State government controlling
and promoting domestic interests, and
preserving intimate cordiality. That the
people of Virginia and its Legislature
earnestly protest against this bill, and instruct
their Senators and request theii
Representatives in Congress firmly] but
respectfully to oppose its passage, not on
1y for the reasons expressed, but as a
measure which is calculated to arrest the
growing sentiments of concord and harmony
b stween the Northern and Southern
States.
The Injunction Case.
CARD FROM STATE TREASURER CAHDOZO.
For the information of the public and
those holdiug "certificates of indebtedness,"
I have determined, upon consultation
with his Excellency the Governor,
to make the following statements:
A temporary injunction was issued this
morning by his Honor Jiidgc Cooke, upon'
the application of Messrs. Monteith and
Bauskctt, against the county treasurers,
who are required to show cause, on the
lDth instant, why said temporary injunction
should not be made permanent, it
is due to the administration and the pub
lie to show the motives actuating the parties
who have obtained the injunction.?
l'his is best seen by the following correspondence

In reply, 1 have the honor to say, that
i) yesterday I received a letter from a
itizen of this city informing me that the
njuction order was signed and in his

and that the matter could still be adusted
if attuned to nt an curly hour.
In previous conversation with the same
crsoii, he had informed me that he held a
luiin against the State for about 85,500,

ould not l>e procured, lie further offerd
to take pay for this claim iu^ "ccrtiliaies

iie injunction was signed this evening,
duruublc l!Hh. and will be served on
ou in the morning at an early hour. It

ic and Mr. Bauskclt, and can yet be adisted
if attended t<> at an early hour,

(Signed) W. S. Monteitii.
I leave the public to draw their own
inclusions, or make their own comments.
While the temporary injunction ngninst i
le county treasurers receiving them for | i
ties continues, and even if it should be . i
ade permuneut, the holders of these]
certificates need not alaruielT as to |
their ultimate redemption, inasmuch as
the State treasurer is authorised by law
to redeem thcui at the treasury out of tho
incoming taxes, as well as the county treasurers
to Bcceive them for taxes. Ia a
word, if the certificates are not to be xeceived
for taxes, then other moneys
will be devoted to the redemption of the
certificates.
i There seems to be a great deal of confusion
in the minds of many persona with
regard to these certificates, and statements
in tho various newspapers have tended to
confirm these mistaken notions. It is said,
for instance, that the tax levy ia not sufficient
to redeem them, and even the
amount issued has been in question. For
the benefit of the public I would state
that the total amount authorized and is
sued is $Z3i,ant>, for the touowing purposes
:
On account of deficiency 6100,500
Interest thereon 6,496
Appropriation for printing immigration
report 75,000
Appropriation for tax duplicates 25.000
Appropriation for Supreme Court
reports 25,000
'Total $231,996
To redeem these a tax ofc one mill has
been levied for printing this session, which
will probably realize at least $160,000.
The appropriations of $125,000 above
stated, and for whicti certificates of indebtedness
have been issued, will first be paid
out of this tax of Si 60,000,'which it will
be seen is more than ample for this purpose,
at least. To redeem the $106,996 issued
, ou account of deficiency, there is a tax of
three and a quarter mills, levied to pay
deficiencies, among which this arnouut is,
of course, included.
I would state in conclusion, that it is
the purpose of his Excellency the Governor
to protect the interest of the holders of
the "certificates of indebtedness." who
have relied upon the good faith of the
State in receiving them, and that I am do.
terinincd to apply the taxes leveied for
their redemption faithfully to that purposed
