2 BAS C« € IT SIT <«V114l * II St«lJf! JmtsL ss&ss • SPARTA, GEORGIA. <L FRIDAY MORNING, Sept. 2 ^ 1869 ' Our Corps of Contributors* • Col. ft. T. Harris • * - • F. t. Little, Esq. Dr. E. M. Pendleton/ Col. C. W. DuBose, '• J. T. F. Jordan, Pierce, Esq. Esq Geo. Jr. Clilncge Immigration. This question has loomed up into one of the first magnitudo. In Alabama, Mis¬ sissippi, Louisiana, and other Southern States, the movement is on foot to intro¬ duce them in “ large quantities,” as raiL road hands, farm laborers and house ser¬ vants. Tbero i.s an agency for their “ship¬ ment” to Georgia. Hence we say it is a practical issue of the times, and it becomes uc-te consider well what we should do in tho premises. As a public journalist, speaking to those who are concerned in tho matter, we utter our prQtest against the system proposed as unwise, and calculated to inflict great in¬ jury upoji us as a section, , Tho reasons assigned by the advocates of the move, arc that in many instances, our rich rice fields arc abandoned—our splendid sugar plantations languish for tho hand of industry—that many large and valuable tracts of cotton land in tho west¬ ern swamps, are entirely valueless, because negroes will not work them, and that one fourth of the available labor of the old slave States has been abstracted from tho fields by various causes; and because the Chinaman was reared in a warm climate and knows how to cultivate rice and cot¬ ton, and is a cheap laborer, that therefore he should be chosen to come and supply our great want in all those respects.— We do not dispute any of the facts enume¬ rated, but wc utterly oppose the conclusion, that the Chinaman is the laborer we want. What is he in his own home, and what has his nation achieved in history ? Both alike groan under the incubus of idolatry, and will continue to do bo as long as the same effect produces a liko cause. With about half the population of the globe, China tg one of the most uninfluontial and impotont of all the political powers.— Worthy men will achieve greatness, and mako their impress in their civilization mi gOTcrnment The, arc irropre..iblo, and da^r all oppos,uon, and r,ae overall diScnlt,. It h« boon aowuh the Gorman, with tho Knghahinan, the I renohman, tho ^wiss. thp Scotchman these have all ad strledwhemselves and their worth in tho world, both individually and politically, Thoy stand forth among tho foremost, and will stand there as long as they possess tbo 8amo characteristics. Wo oommit a grave mistake when we oonelude wo have all wo want when wo induce a cheap laborer to come among us from China. Ho may have muscle and render faithful service, but this is his ulti matutu of effort and of value. A mulo or an ox is valuablo in tho same sense and to fully as great an extent. More set; bo cause the Chinaman, as a man, brings with him some inherent inflnenco, and his idol trous superstitions would soon begin to bear fruit among tho negroes, who natural* ly incline in that direction, and while him¬ self resisting tho impress of our civiliza¬ tion, would stamp his own abominablo hcathanisui on multitudes of our peoplo. What the South needs is educated labor. Tho immigration, and tho only itumigra tion she should encourage, is such as will supply her with the material for useful workers in her varied fields—ami , worthy . men, to take their place as citizens. She bas a thousund resourocs needing develop¬ ment outside of tho culture of cotton.— Thcro is nearly enough of this s/aple made now for the demand. Ono great danger lios in tho temptation to incrcaso its jro duotion unduly under the stimulous of the present high prices. Wo do need more poople, but whilo tho civilized portious of Europe are groaning under tho weight of an overcrowded population, anxious to come hither—meu of the Anglo Saxon race—men who embraoo the Christian vo ligiou-—meu whose ancestors have built up the splendid civilization of their re* apeotive lands, and while those ’.\culd not only bffng more intelligence and value ns laborers—but infinitely more us mcH—— in heaven’s name let tis not encourage in any manner, tho coming of this worse than negro. But let us invite tho 8cotch, the English, tho Irish, the German, tho Swiss, tho Norwegian, and let us encourage them by every inducement in our power to coma and aid us in laying tho foundations of a new prosperity. As we have said these abound in their own lands in oxccss, and are looking to America with the anxious hopes that they may ono day find a home here. They aro skilled iu all kinds of agriculture aud me chanical pursuits—in short, in all labor U'qm red or demanded by our present con¬ dition, and would not-only add lo our ma¬ terial dovolpment which is important, bat to our social, political, aud religious growth. To all such we say welcome, thrice welcome. Slander Checked. o have read the meanly, sarcastic and niggardly attack of the American Union upon our article relating to the Press Ex¬ cursion and Dinner at the National. In our correspondence on these topics, no have expressed our true sentiments. We were “ not bought to give a formal salutation,” for tee have not learned to cringo to Democrats or Radicals. “Kind looks” certainly met the gaze of Col. Hulbert, but they were given for his energy and zeal in developing Georgia’s mineral wealth; the politics of that gen¬ tleman and .Bullock we have always op* posed, and we will not change for a ride on the cars. We enjoyed the trip, but we paid for. the pleasure. No Radical’s purse is les 3 weighty from any expenditure for the ex¬ cursion. I he State of Georgia paid the expenses which the Exponents of her people in¬ curred. Was there anything “ little, un manly or contemptible” in this ? No doubt these epithets became so familiar to Mr. Swayze on the trip, that he imagines in his 11 Dehrims Tremendous” manner, that they were applicable to gentlemen. Mr. Swayze ought to remember that be¬ fore, and particularly since, the trial of the negro Turner at Macon, where he figured as an impeached witness for the State, that his denunciations against us can do us very little damage. That he was the largest Black Sheep in the party of Editors, was alone in his per¬ ambulations, and did not blate at all while in the mountains, but now that he has re¬ turned to his own pasturnge, he “ blates and bahs” with the vehemence and sene rous cadence of a lie male. Let him tfbt charge “ infamy” upon others, when in every editorial of his pa¬ per, bad faith, ignominy, and perfidy are apparent, and recognized by Editors who refused to associate with him as a brother Editor and as a gentleman.

It has been mad* my duty by request of The Mutual Improvemwot Agricultural Club, .j,’ to address you on the formation of similar a Glib*. ‘ nc, 8 bbor hoods of the Couvty. lhe Constitution and aU,,Ls Bye Laws of this Club W-L are published .son of Rni( to Who u,. y bo disposed .0 00 - per.,e with those intelligent and enterpnstng gentlemen m the improvement of our noble vocation, tu all its branches, as well as in out social in tercourse and mental capacitiel R they suit you, organize your lpcal Clubs'on their plan—if they do not, change them so J as to adapt them to your views-but be a to organize them on some good at once, and publish the fact for the couragement of others. Their ultimate purpose is, if *co„r. aged by the action of other neighborhoods, to form an Agricultural Club for the County or to revive the old one, if most ndvisable. This is not intended to peZv super cede the looa. Clubs, forit will bo ed that they are of more importance, be cause better calculated to promote and en courage improvement in the several neigh borhoods, than a Central Society can be. In these local Clubs, men are less different in the expressions of their ideas and not so reserved os in larger assemblages. The Plain sensible man’s talk, is often of mere teal value, thau the proudest efforts of or atory or the grandest achievement of more words. Ideas are here sought—not flu ency of speech, according to Rhetoric and the Rules of Grammar. Fucts and experi ence are desired. These are to be found in rich abundance, among the most un¬ pretending Farmers in the Country.— They are locked up in the brains of these men and there they are destined to re¬ main if they cannot be induced to com¬ municate them to theta neighbors in their plain sensible way. ’fhis •interchange of ideas, facts and expeiience—the mutual improvement of each ether, in all that per. tains to tho interest ol the Farmer, is the object in view when ve beg you to organ¬ ize. Try it for one yetr!—for six months! If of no benefit to any one^then let it per* ish. But remember, the fault will be in you not in the plan We have said nothing of its social ben¬ efits or the mental aevantages that it will confer upon its members. These are not without their value everywhere, and espe¬ cially in the country where social gather ings seldom oeour and away from Post Offices, from whence but few newspapers find their way to distant neighborhoods.— At your meetings once a month (or as of¬ ten as you choose) you transact business— discuss your Reports, questions &e., and then, spend the balance of your time in conversation on the various topics of in¬ terest to you, not immediately connected with Agriculture. Friendships are strength¬ ened and knowledge is imparted, nowhere else so readily and so cheaply obtained, compared to which, greenbacks arc miser¬ able caricatures and gold itself is but trash. Wc are altogothcr serious in what wesay— wc could give you numerous facts here at home, to prove it, but wc lorbcar. May we not hope, that some one or more of our sensible mon in every neigh hood, putting a just appreciation on the subject aud not on this meagre but well meant argument in its favor, will go to work without delay and establish a local Club in their respective localities. Organ¬ ize—organize and meet alternately at each others residences or at some central or con fer, vcnienfcplacein the vicinity as you may pre¬ and twelve months will not expire be¬ fore the advantages of such a course will be apparent to all.

Wc have again, assurances, by way of cablegrams, that the Great powers of Eu¬ rope, in response to the Spanish circular calling attention to Sickles’ report to the Washington Government, have “answer¬ ed favorable to the rights of Spain.” It is also said that backed by these expres¬ sions of sympathy on the part of tho Great Powers, General Prim writes to Madrid from France, where he has been detained for some days on important official busi¬ ness, that he “will hesitate at no sacrifice to subdue the insun cction in Cuba.” The people of Spain, torn and distract¬ ed as they are upon questions of home government and policy, seem to be a unit for tho vigorous prosecution of the war against tho insurgents. Indeed the mass¬ es seeiu to be ahead of the Government in their determination to hold Cuba at aH events.* Large reinforcements of troops and full supplies of war ma'ei ial &c„ are to be sent out at once to De Rosa, and sev¬ eral men of-war have been dispatched to the Cuban waters to cut off supplies of men and money from the United States. Th* New York Herald, iu view of these fuct$ calls upon Grant’s administration to act at once, and extend to the Patriot Grvernmeiit recognition as belligerents and aecovded to the insurgents all the rights which Great Britain extended to the Con¬ federate Government during our late war. Wc believe that the acquisition of Cuba will soon be made a prominent plank in the Republican platform, and that the Federal Government will be forced to take action in accordance with Radical views on this question.— Chrou. c£> Scut.
