The Harrisburg (Pa.) State Journal
declares that “a party which has invaria
bly refused to protect labor has no claim
to tho support of laboring men.” That
is true. But the very poorest protection
that can bo given “laboring men” is to
to increase the cost of the necessaries of
life, from twenty to fifty per cent., by a
Byatom of oppressive and discriminating

party “protects” tho “laboring men.”

semble at Columbus, Ohio, on the 18th
of October, to put its candidate in the
field. Tho editor of the Courier-Journal,
it is understood, will apply for the situa

ought to receive some acknowledgement
of his services.
B&.It has boon said that “great minds
often run in tho same channel.” This
has proof in a circumstauce which occurs
in one of John nay’s poems. In his

which tho following lino occurs:
"With folded Lauds and drcaiuiug oyes."
In a very beautiful little poem entitled
“llabioBelle,” by Thomas Bailey Aldrich,
which appeared some ten or a dozen years
ago—before John Hay had been heard
of—tho following lino occurred:
“With folded haude aiul dreamy eyes.”
The great similarity between tho two
will be observed by tho most casual read
er, and it shows how closely two minds
may run together, with more than a do-
cado of yeurs between them.

It appears that up to May last war-
V;.nti to the amount of upwards of
three millions of dollars were drawn
in favor of F. E. Spinner, Treasurer
of the United States, of which no ac
count is given in tho report of the
expenditures of •. the Government
made by the Secretary of the Treat'
nry. The number, date and amount
of each of the e warrants and the
name of the iierson in whose favor
they were drawn, appear on the books

The IU port of Mr. Bnutwell,
nor is any one permitted to ascertain
them from the records of the Depart
ment. lion. Jas.H. Deck,of Kentucky,
recently declared, in a public address,
that “tlie beads of departments at
Washington would rather seo Grant
Emperor, with the right of succession
to his sou, than seo the evidence of
their guilt puss into (lie hands of the
Democratic party." Mr. Hook’s alio
(ration is based on farts which are no
torious at Washington. It is well
known by all ollicially connected with
the Treasury Department that many
of the Treasury ledgers have been
destroyed.
Nix Cart Load*
of the account books of the Depart
ment, it is said, liave been sold as waste
paper,the red leather labels which were
torn off them being all that remains of
tlie demolished records. Why were
these account books destroyed, if not
to prevent the evidence of defalca
tion and peculation in tlie Depart
ment from seeing the light ? And
why are the records which remain in
tact hidden from tho scrutiny of all
who seek to examine them, if not to
conceal malfeasance of the Depart
ment officials and to screen the plun
derers who infest the Capitol from
the vengeance of tho law? As the
official reports of tlie Secretary of the
Treasury do not furnish to thcjieoplc
a full or itemized statement of the
expenditures of the Government, and
as tho records of tho Department are
sealed books to all who arc not official
ly connected with it, the public is
obliged to grope in the darkest igno
rance in forming a conclusion ns to
the houcBty of tlie present adminis
tration. It is only by such occasional
glimpses into tlie penetralia of tlie
executive offico as that afforded by
the exposure of the Spinner warrants,
that any idea of tlie inner working of
tlie financial machinery of the Gov
ernment is revealed to “outside bar
barians.” The people of this country
will never know
Tlie Iniquities Perpetrated
in their name at Washington, until
tlie party which at present domi
nates tlie country is turned out of
power. They will hardly consent to
stumble on through another fonr
years’ darkness.
Senator Tipton, of Ncbranka,
a Republican in whom there- is no
guile, thus defined his position in a
speech ut Omaha t lie other day:
“ I am unalterably opposed to the
ruinous and corrupting course of tho
present administration, and 1 hero
pledge myself to make that opposi
tion both open and uncompromising.”
When the ablest and most distin
guished men in the so-called Repuii-
ican party, men like Trumbull,
Schurz, Gratz Brown and Tipton,
openly denounce the present admin
istration as corrupt, and declare that
it has forfeited all claim to tlie sup
port of honest people, tlie attempts
of- its parasites, the Mortons, the
Camerons and the Conklings, and of
its paid tools, the Forneys, tlie John
Russell Youngs and iiie George
Joneses to whitewash tho blackened
record, will be -taken at tiieir true
value.
Thu Sec-ret ary of the Treasury
iu assuming the right to decide upon
the legality of claims (as in the case
of the Kentucky war claim), after
they have been passed upon by the
proper accounting officers of the
Treasury, has invaded an old and
well defined law establishing tho pow
ers of the Comptrollers of the Treas
ury. A case similar to that presented
by the State of Kentucky, was, dur
ing the Presidency of Andrew Jack-
son, taken up on appeal to hiiu (Jack
son) who decided that the Comptrol
ler was an officer over whom lie had
no control except by removal in case
lie failed in his duty; and that an ap
peal from a decision of the Comp
troller could only be acted upon by
Congress.
To show the fallacy of the position
assumed by Mr. Routwoll in passing
judgment upon the Kentucky claim,
it may be stated that under his ruling,
if tlie Secretary of tho Treasury has
any accounts or claims before the De
partment iu which he is personally
interested he(by these powers claimed)
can overrule a Comptroller and pass
his own accounts, thereby
D.ftalinvc the Object of Concrc
iu making the Accounting Huit-aus
of the Treasury independent of the
Secretary, which was to prevent tlie
head of the Treasury from interfering
in any accounts or claims in which
lie might be personally interested. In
fact to grunt the position assumed by
Mr. Uoutwell would be to make him
the general claim agent of t lie whole
country.
The act of March, 1808, expressly
forbids any hood 'of a Department
from changing a balance certified
by tlie accounting officers. He may
state bis objections to a balance, but
the decision of a Comptroller ii made
final aud conclusive. Avoirs.

According to appointment, tho mem
bers of the Pike County Agricultural So
eietv met at Zebulon on Saturday kit, to
take into consideration the propriety of
a move on tho part of tho farmers of that
county towards securing a supply of labor
for the ensuing year, and to discuss tho
many projects for securing the some; and
particularly to hear the viows of Captain
B. II. True, of Madison, on tho subject
of immigration. Capt. T. lias boen very
active in his exertions to bring to Georgia
a class of citizens who havo taken hold
and gone to work to build np tho waste
places; and his success in thut lino secured
him the attention of one of the largost
audiences that havo assembled in Zebu
Ion einco the war. Wo give a short syn
opsis of his remarks:
REMARKS OP CAPT. II. II. TRUE.
Henllevicn of the Pike County Ayricidt iral
• tvi .*
I find myself very unexpectedly called
upon to address you upon tho quostion of
immigration. We havo arrived at that
point where action becomes necessary to
save us from greater evils than wo have
yet encountered. Tho demoralization of
our labor system is Well nigh complete.
The nttendenco here to-day is a gratify
ing sign thut you havo responded to the
demands of tho hour in that spirit and
determination which knows no such word
as fail. You ore not alono in thinking
that the timo has como for a change in
our labor system, but from all parts of
the State is breathed this sentiment. Do
not understand me that I am at war with
our present labor force. NotatalL The
labor we have would do well enough had
we the means to stimulate and enlighten
it, and plenty of it. But a great scarcity
exists, and to meet this want we must
look else where. With a denno laboring
population, competition is tho most po
tent of labor laws. Tho chaugo I speak
of is from being obliged to jiaudor to the
wants and tastes of a few ignorant, un
skilled laborers, to that stato of things
where many skilled workmen comes in
competion with them, and spurs the lazy
and indolent up, or else nudges him oil
the track. By tho introduction of foreign
laborer's we not only mako available the
labor wo havo but we stimulate new and
untried industries. Skilled laborers will
not only bring with them muscular
strength and power, but ideas, which
(with all our inducements of climate,
soil and production, our railroads built,
our farms fenced, cleared and ready for
the plow, our churches and froo schools,!
will find root in our soil, and grow and
strengthen as years pas3 away. Demon
strate to tho English laborer that the
same products as grown in their native
land can bo even moro successfully pro
duced here, that sheep husbandry may
be made os profitable as cotton culture,
and that tho successful raising of fruits
and vegetables, of corals, aud iu fact
nearly everything produoed iu tho tropica,
and higher latitudes, is no experiment,
but simply a question of skill and intelli
gence. When tho English laborer finds
out tho true condition of the South, that
the winters are mild and pleasant, that a
living can easily bo made, that less cloth
ing and fuel will do them thou at the
North, wo will have no trouble to tnrn
the tide immigration in this direction
and freo them from the sad condition iu
which they are
Since my residence in the State I havo
become deeply interested iu her welfuro,
and havo devoted what little energy I
possess to the advancement of her mate
rial interests, and there aro nono moro
deeply impressed than myself wifh tho
importance of this movement, which will
secure abundance of labor aud good, in
dustrious settlers for our surplus lauds.
I am here with no set plan for action iu
opposition to the opinion of this intelli
gent audience; but as tho undertaking is
a gigantic one, to consider and reason
together and adopt a plan which looks
the most feasible. To meet with suc
cess, however, wo must scciiro the coope
ration of tho peoplo, for in such a task
as is involved in procuring a largo natural
immigration, individual offort can accom
plish very little. It is not enough that
we make a simple eflort and then cease to
work, for tho demand will increase for
labor as fast as it can possibly bo supplied
by a well regulated ‘ ‘Immigration Associa
tion.” It is generally tho coso that indi
vidual efforts rarely if over succeed only in
tho first undertaking. Tho victory is not
followed up. The few isolated familioe
become dissatisfied, and thus ends tho
work. Wo propose, iu tho organization
of a State Association, to liavo a perma
nent institution, which will not only fur
nish farm laborers, bat artisans, mechan
ics, house servants, and actual settlers,
not only from Europe, but from any port
of tho world to suit tho wants of the peo
ple. Two things, however, must bo con
sidered if wo aro allowed to choose; first,
tho. character of tho emigrant, and sec
ond tho cost of landing him in Goorgia.
Although iu the broad senso of tho word
population is wealth, still when ohoioe is
allowed us it becomes us to sottlo upon
the class best adapted to our country and
condition. 1 havo had somo experience
with English laborers at tho North, and
it is toy settled conviction that tlfcy will
be far superior to any other class now of
fered us. By tho introduction of the
English wc have a homogeneous people,
speaking onr lnnguago and conversant
with our geueml way of doing things.
The cost to land an Englishman iu
Charleston is $25; for a Swecd $G0 to $80;
for a Chinaman $150. Capt. Murray said
to tho Charleston Immigration Conven
tion, a yoar ago last Muy, “Thoro is, os
you aro well aware, a strong prejudice in
the minds of Kuropcau emigrants gener
ally against the South, owing to their ed
ucated ignorance with regard to us. They
think that wo have always despised labor,
that we hato tho laborer and look down
upon him and his occupation with con
tempt.” They aro still taught to ha
lieve, and many of them <lo believe, that
if they come to tho South they would bo
made slaves instantly. There is another
class of them who believe that the South
ern peoplo aro a lawless, semi-barbarous
set—that tho Southern climate is deadly
to white laborers, and that tho negro is
among us only because ho U a negro, and
he alone could endnre onr climate as a
laborer.
One of tho tasks before us is to en
lighten this ignorance and removo these
prejudices. To do this is among tho first
steps towards the consummation of those
measures, which are necessary to secure
foreign immigration.
Though all seem to dosiro immigration,
yet few appear to realize fts importance
so as to bring it home to themselves.--
What is that put the North abend of the
South in wealth and population but im
migration ? Tho immigrants and de
scendants of immigrants who have set-

In 17U0 tho deffereure between them
iu j-ipulatiou did not exceed ten thou
sand, natural increase 1i*h been in favor
of tho South—yet the difference iu pop
ulation between the two sections amount
now to ton or fifteen millions.
My proposition in, to organise a Stato
Immigrant Association on a plan similar
to tho ono adopted by South Carolina.
This, we can do at the Romo agricultural
convention, where will be found many of
tho leading Agriculturists of the btuto.
It would not be amiss to get tho sense of
tho meeting by giving each person pres
ent, a chance to put his name down for
as many laborers as each would like.
UEOHOJA AS A HOME FOB THE IMMIGRANT.
Probably no Southern State holds out
such inducements to the immigrant from
Europe or settlers from tho North, as
Georgia. Situated between tho two ex
tremes of heat and cold, she enjoys a
wider range of production, and a mild
solabrions climate—the like of which has
no parallel in tho Bamo territorial extent
upon tho habitable globe. Thero is
hardly a limit to her productive capacity,
nearly all tlie merchantable product of the
world can bo successfully grown within
her borders. We only need a teeming
population to bring out her now dormant
energies. In point of productive indus
try, Goorgia, although crippled aud pros
trate by tho war, has mado rapid strides.
Tho rich mines lio undeveloped, need on
ly tho skillful artizau to bring the glitter
ing ore to tho surface. Tho railroads
that aro built, and those in process of
construction, extend like a net-work over
tho entire State. The rivers invite capi
tal to build factories—aud in fact, noth
ing is lacking save a dense population to
muke Georgia ‘ ‘bloom as tho roso.“ l
The peoplo of Pike aro in earnest about
getting a full supply of labor; aud on
tho conclusion of Capt. True’s remarks a
largo number of gentlemen signified their
intention of adopting his views on the
subject, and agroed to subscribe for a
largo number of English laborers. At
tho September meeting, it was desired
that parties wishing to secure labor
should state how many. This mooting
will bo held on the first Saturday iu Sop
tember, when it is confidently expected
that Piko county will make arrangements
to secure at least three hundred white
laborers.
From what was said at this meeting,
tho county of Piko is sadly short of labor
and the people seo no way of supplying
it except by immigration; and wo be
lieve that tho peoplo aro in earnest iu this
movement.
THE SCHOOLMASTER IN IiADVLON I
When the meeting of tho Agricultural
Society was at its highest point of inter
est, and tho peoplo had began to feel and
know the importance of tho work before
them, Gen. Lewis, State School Commis
sioner, mado his appearance, and asked
for permission to address tho audience.
Tho Pike county poople, true to their
raising, did not rofusc this privilege; but
about half of them suddenly loft, when
ho got tho floor, and commenced a speech
which lasted about an hour and a half.—
Wo judge that our Pike county friends
think that if they can secure labor
enough to mako crops, they will not
trouble tho Gen oral to visit them on the
subject of schools. Thero are no poople
in Georgia who tnko a deeper interest in
tho education of their children than those
of Fike county; but wo confess that wo
do not beliovo that gallant, glorious old
rike favors an imported school commis
sioner, when thero are within her bor
ders men who can fill tho position as well
as those from a more northern latitude.
Crops through Pike aro generally very
good, and the oounty will doubtless mako
enough to feed its people and a little to
spare.
