JOHN II. MARTIN Killior.
COLUMBUS:
Saturday Morning, Oct. 14, 1865.
cr-~- f
Absence from the cjtv on Thursday
prevented our noticing earlier nn article
in the Sun of that morning.
Tbnt paper still exercised Jit our d—
clension t- nmnr pcrs-iiw in the Smith
win* favor tJu* * xtension of citizens’ pe
culiar rights to the negro, uud anntmncert
that it will “take the liberty to doubt the
correctness” of our assertion until wo
do name the iuuividuals. Very well.
Wo had rather have its doubts thun its
endorsement lor any assertion that we
may make. We d»» not believe that in
this community our word will either suf
fer on account of the bum r, <*r receive
any support from tin* latter.
It is, however, either very brazen as
surance or very blundering inconsistency
on its part to publish, in the very paper
expressing its purpose to doubt tin* truth
of our ns.-crtion. an article* declaring
that (inv. Brown low and si majority of
both brunches of t’ne Legislature of
Tennns.see are m favor »>| negro suilVage,
and have only been dissuaded from
granting it by 1 lio intervention of Presi
dent Johnson ! Are not those Tennes
see legislators “men <>j tin* South” ?
But we are not now alluding to Ten
nessee for the pMiposr* of moditying in
nnv degree the allusion that we have
made. Wo meant men of* (le>ri>ia in
our first article, though we did not say
so, and though the .See'.- denial covered
thu whole South.
^ The Sun contend, that our imputation
applies to every mini of the .South, since
we do not name any particular men !
We will not take time t«» expose logic so
absurd. Su/liee it to\*;»y that no man
who feels himself entirely clour of the
imputation will trouble himself about
one made in m:c}i /.-■•pend terms, and we
do not care to relieve any whom '‘tin-
cap fits.”
Thu Sun's attempt (•> vmy our accu
sation, by representing ns as ri-fi ning
to “negio buHruge,” is a contemptible
quibble, the object «*f wliieh is easily de
tected. Tube inui-i' explicit in our as*
nerlion, we here reiterate that this paper
lias been denounced lor not advocating
the equality of till* negro with tin* whito
man before the court- of the country;
tin* Hiatus of tii. negro as a freeholder
—which word, according to the inter
pretation given it. may or may not moan
the conferring of a greater right on the
negro tlmu wo are willing to concede;
uud the right of negro wenches, by their
own oaths simply, to establish charges
calculated to mortify any families against
whom they may have a spite. Whether
persons den->nn( ing us for not advocating
these concessions are also in favor of
negro suilVage, is more than we can say.
' that would have the effect of destroying
I f,.r n limn nml f-rontly injuring fur nil
| timn tlic cotton interest of the South:
! and the soqocl is likoly to more than re- ;
nlizn our fours. Ilut we heliovo that the j
I Southern Stnlns will yet, if they can
make tlie new system of labor us availa
ble as tho old ill the production ot cot
ton, regulate thu pricos of tho world,
and obtain tho proforenco and contribute
in far tho largest proportions the stocks
of the manufacturing districts of Eu
rope. Our correspondent nmy not con
sider this “almost n monopoly," but it
will ho a supremacy that will amount to
about the same thing.

Ihtilor Ennuim: In your article
Cotton, in this morning’s paper, you ob
serve: “We have still almost a monopo
ly in tho production of a raw material
that Jill the world must have for eon-
Miinption,” Arc.
The Liverpool sales of the first week
in September of this year are say I IB»-
tMHI bales, of which only about 7,000 are
American cotton. Our late war bus de
monstrated tho ability of Kuropc to live
without our cotton, and h<> stimulated its
production, with intelligent culture and
manipulation, that not only India, hut
Turkey, Kgypt, the West Indies, Aus
tralia and Southern -Kuropc bloom with
the llower of the cotton plant. Mur mo
nopoly, then, is an absurdity. II.
The above is a very superficial view
of tho question upon which our coires
pondent (litters with us. On the first of
September, Liverpool hod been cut off
from the cotton trade o| the Southern
States for four year-. 1 hiring that time
only occasional arrivals of cotton ves
sels, that had broken the blockade of the
Southern ports, contributed to the Ku-
ropean stock of cotton, and time enough
bad not elapsed since the close of our
war for any increase of shipments from
this country. The stock of North Ameri
can cotton had hlmo*4 given out. On
the other band, the production of cotton
in Asia, Africa, Ac., had been greatly
stimulated for three or four years by tho
high prices consequent upon the cutting
oil* of our cotton and the teniporarv ces
sation of tho raising of cotton at the
South. . Wo have, however, already bud
positive n ash run ci > that the culture and
exportation of cotton in India, on any
great, scale, must i-ease now that our
war is over, forjjie reason that it cannot
be laid down in Liverpool at juices that
ran be realized when these Southern
States are again the producers of three
or four millions of bales. The same
causes will pretty surely operate to the
serious curtailment of the cotton crops
of other countriVs that have had pro
ttmjMirf t*T supply tlie lack of American
cotton in the European manufacturing
towns. The truth is. too, that it has
ln*en more nn increnso of importation
than of prptiwlion of cotton in India and
China that bus so largely swelled their
stocks of cotton in the Liverpool mar
ket. Hie speculating gatherers and ex
porters ot the crops of those countries
will cease from their labors when the
South again enters the markets ot* the
world with cheap cotton, and when the
manufacturers cun get at reasonable
prices cottons tlmt they prefer so much
us thoy do ours.
That the war lias ptoved a serious
blow to the cotton-niitdug business of
tho South, is not to be denied. One of
the argument* that we used against sc-
C'«Mioii was that it would lead to u war
Tumi. This, wo trust, is tho commence
ment of a reform tliut is soon to ho ex- ,
tended throughout the South. It would
bo unreasonable to expect that soldiers,
however capable they may he to tho dis
charge of military dutien,,'could under
stand so woll tho relations between the
white and colored populations ot the
South and tho kind of regulations need
ed to promote the interests of both, as
men who liuro all their lives been ob
servers of our social and industrial sys
tems. Men who understand at once tlie
negro character and the needs of South
ern agriculture (in which the great body
nf the negroes, though freed, must of
necessity continue to be employed) ore
the men for the local wipervision of the
new system. It is important primarily
7o have the local regulations ami decis
ions such as they ought to he, with jus
tice to both parties, and the retention ol
the State supeiintendcncy by the mili
tary appointees of the Bureau would he
sufficient for the correction of any im
proper bias towards the whites by the
local commissioners.

The trial of Emerson Etheridge is now
progressing at Columbus, Kentucky. lie

I. With encouraging resistance to tho
enforcement of tho laws.
II. With inciting sedition and insur
rection.
Under tho last named charge tho fol
lowing specifications are made:
^Specification 1. In this, that Emerson
Etheridge, citizen ot Tennessee, when ad
dressing a large Assembly of citizens at
Trenton, Tonnessce, on the Bit day of
July, 1665, mode use of incendiary* ami
infliiiuatory language in words substan
tially as follows, lo-wit:
“When tho tax collectors, who have
been appointed by tho present Bogus Le
gislature, {meaning thcroby the loyal and
lawful Legislature of the State of Ten
nessee,) come around to collect taxes,
‘hoot them down, but don’t tell any one
1 told you to do it”
Specification 2. In this, that Emerson
Etheridge, citizen, when engaged in ha
ranguing a mass meeting of citizens at
Trenton, Tonn., on tho 8d day of July,
1663, made use oi incendiary and disloyal
language, in words substantially us fol
lows, to-wit: "The negroes are no more
froo than thoy were forty years ago, and
if any one goes about the country tolling
them they are free, shoot him ; and these
negro troops, commanded by low and do
graded while men, going through the
country, ought to bo shot down.” The
said Emerson Etheridge thoroby publicly

prove that Bruwnlow and Johnson (mean

able Governor of Tennessee, and his Ex
cellency Andrew Johnson, President of
the United Statos) hie still moaner than
lie is. Judas sold his Master for thirty
nieces oi silver, but Johnson has sold

Georgia. The Procla
mations of tho President of tho Unitod States
having given freodnm to every slave, nud tho
oath of uuiuesty nnd tho conditions of nardon
forbid any attempt at its revival iu any form or
condition.
The great mass of tho Agricultural Popula
tion of the St a to has been released from tnoir
obligation to cultivate tho soil, excopt by their
own volition, and it most he apparent to tho
judicious observer, however much to bo regret
ted, that the voluntary labor of the newly freed
population will not for tho present, at least,
supply tho deficiency ot labor.
The withdrawal of nearly litreo hundred
thousand able bodiod persons to a groater, or
less oxteat from their usual vocotions has
created a void which must he tilled or the lands
ot the State will remain unfilled, her great to-
sources undeveloped and her future prosperity
sacrificed.
Tho remedy, and the only remedy for tli'-a
condition of affairs consists iu tho immigration
of u hardy nml iodustriou;) whito population, to
supply tho place* of those wlm cannot ho com
pelled to work and whose oispoitions do not
uiclUte them to greater labor than is actually
necessary to support life.
To such immigrants, no StnD) offers gre iter
inducement* than the Stato of Georgia. Ex
tending from the Atlantic Ocean to the Blue
Ridge, it nmbracos overy variety of soil and
climate. The Savannahs ol the rosier, the roll
ing country of the intcri r, and the mountains
of tho northern part of the .State afford oppor
tunities for tac cultivation ot' alrno.it every pro
duct of tropicol or temperate latitudes.
The grano is grown with gro it success in many
parts of the Stute and its cultivation has only
been limited by the want of persons skilled iu
tho knowledge ol the vino imd of tho mode of
preparing it* yield. The 6tato in also rich in
geld and other mincra's, nml nothing hut cnor-
gy and the application ol proper machinery is
wanting to the development ot these hidden
treasures.
The raising of sheop of tho finest breeds ha*
boon curried on with success, nnd tho vast run-
ges of uncultivati'd tucd all rd excellent pas
tures ftr cattle and all kinds ot stuck—rice,
ootton tobacco, corn, wheat, rye, oats, sugar
cane, tho grape and all spcciej ot fruits find
their appropriate soil und climate within our
extended limit*.
The numerous rivers and smaller streams tak
ing ihcir ri:;o in tho mountains and running
through tho State into the Atlantic and tbo
Gulf in their gradual descent furnish wator
power unlailinR m tiny season and capable of
putting into operation any kiml of machinery
Tbo area of tlie state coni a ins upwards of
thirty millions of acres, of which not more than
ono third ha* been cultivated and tho virgin
forest of tho wild lands afford nn inexhaustible
supply of lumber which formed a heavy item
of tfio exports ol Georgia prior to our Into dif
ficulties. These lauds, which may be bought at
comparatively low rates, will give to the new
settlor a homestead on which he may erect his
root treo and settle (or tit- an inhabitant and in
time a cUiien of the republic.
In view of tho foregoiug facts the undersigned
propose to organize a Company to bo called the
'Georgia Land and Emigration Company,’’ the
principal office to bo located in Savannah, w ith
the intention of applying for a charter at the
next session of tbo Lugi-lature; tho cupital of
said Company to be five buiulrod thousand dol
lars, in twcuty thousand shares of twenty-five
dollar* each; said Company to be organized by
the choice ol a President and Directors when
all the shares slmll have been subscribed.
The object of the Company i* to induce and
afford aid to the immigration into tho State of
Georgia of honest, sober.nnd reliable persons
with their families, to beomuo purchasers of and
settlor* on lands not now in use, or bo laborers
on farms or plantations on wliieh the frcoduien
refuse to work, or to follow their trades, or bo-
coine house servants.
Tho advantage* to be derived nt this present
juncture by the inliux of such a eln*s of pupur
l&tion, are manilest. To the large landholder
it offers the prospect of selling his land or farm
ing it out oil advantageous terms. To tho Flan-
tur and Fanner it will supply that labor, in tho
absoncc of which, the ownership ot tho soil is h
burthen, nnd to all person* iu tlwse classes ot
life whose business requires or whose puaitiou
permits tho ush of tbo labor of otters, it affords
tbo opportunity oi obtaining such labor at u
reasonable rate, and of a reliable character.
So also to tlio State will groat benefit accrue:
many ot the immigrants may bring wealth with
them, all will bring .-kill or iudustry, which is
tho source of wealth, and this inlnsion of new
life will, we trust, in program of time, restore
Georgia to her original state of prosperity.
The Company we believe, will bo, nut only
self-sustaining, r but a source of profit to the
stock holders. The loo* mud by those emigrant*
who can afford it, fur directions »* to choir set-
lleiueut; the eoiniuissious paid hy the owners
of lands lor the sale, or loaning of tltoir lands
to thu immigrant.-, and hy persons to whom la
borers ore furnished, thu profits to be derived
from a Savings Institution to tuko caro of the
(und* und profits of tbo emigrants, which it i<
proposed to connect with the Company, will,
we expect, enable thu Company to declaro such
dividends as will uiuko it remunerative to those
who subsenbo limply us an investment. But
independently ot pceuniniy c-uei-cration, as
citizen!* of tne Mate of Georgia who have an
interest in its future welfure. w# your assis
tance in this matter, iu our opinion of vital im
portance. We u\ay not leave the laud of our
birth, let us make it ouco more a land of proin-
