Mr. Taylor owns largely in tlm Cen

Virginia Military Institute, )
Dec. 33, 1871. j
Rolfe S. Saunders, Esq.:
I have been prevented from an ear
lier acknowledgment of your favor of
the 1st.
I recently went into some calcula
tions upon European emigration: The
natural increase of the white popula
tion is 13.8 per cent from census, s>
that according to a writer in the Nor
folk Virginian, of the 12th inst, had
there been no immigration into the
country since the census of 1790, the
total white population of the United
States in 1870 would have been,
round numbers, 10,000,000, instead
of 35,000,000. TUs difference of 25-
000,000 <ff inhabitants fa due to the
immigrants and the descendants of im
migrants who have settled in this
country for the last eighty years.
Of these 25,000,000, the States
which ten years ago were called the
Slave.States,” have 7,500,000, and
the “ Free States” 17,500,000— differ
ence in foyer of foe latter, 10,000,000
of inhabitants. .
Neither Spain, nor Denmark, nor
Holland has ten million inhabitants,
cor had England more than half as
many in-the time of “ Good Quee
Yet they were powtr.ul nation
Nor is there any other nation in the
New World that has ten millions of
straight-haired inhabitants. Brazil
the most populous among them, has
ouly twelve millions, counting negroes
and all.
Now, according to Mr. Chases’ esti
mates, each one of these ten millions
of people is worth to the North,
their persons, and with their Capital
and labor, 91,000; I think that •' his
estimate is too high, and suppose that
$500 would be nearer the mark. Then
$5,000,000,000—five thousand million
dollars—represents what the : North
has gained more than foe South,
by immigration alone; this,. exclusive
of foe military power that resides in
ten millions of people. Now it
not “ Yankee enterprise," nor “ Yan
kee energy”—which are such pet terms
for accounting for the difference
wealth, power and prosperity between
the sections—that created this wealth,
foiapoptdation. It was immigration.
And a like immigration of settler* in
the South would increase the wealth of
foe South by. an equal sum of five thous
and million of dollars in gold; or rath
er what is better than gold or silver.
Suppose the South coaid set
motion for her borders a stream of
immigrants no greater, but aogseat as
way of doing this is for the States to
dab together for a joint statement of
facts addressed to that prejudice and
ignorance, and calculated to remove
them,* and tlun to Impart to foe emi-
grswting dasMs in Europe facts with
regard Jqjbe.8oufo—its climate and
production, etc.; its natural resources
features; its internal im-
provemeatsand water course?; markets
»nd market ways; its social condition,
with the manners and .customs of foe
people. In short, everything that the
emigrant ought to know about a new
country before coming to H. .Then,
let this report, under foe seal of all foe
cooperating Stotes, be pot in the lan
guage of all the people yon desire to
reach, and stereotyped. Then let these
plates, also at the common expense, le
placed in each country—the German
plates with a German publisher, etc.,
who dull deliver copies to the agents,
public and private, of the various
States, and of the varioas immigration
companies, and charging, for such cop
ies only ti» east of papg) -sink print
ing. ( , -
Let this be done, and, my word for
it, yon will soon see ashing dried up
springs of European emigration for the
Honfo, gushing forth like mountain
torrents. You may see this plan more
folly developed in “ The South.'
While immigration will cost you
money, the system of meteorological
observations and crop reports that I
proposed last fall will cost you noth
ing, and be quite as beneficial. I send
you copy of the address. Help “ roll
that ball along." The people are tak
ing it up. Yours, M. F. Maury.

Cotton States Land and Immigration
Company.
From the time the war ended, bring
ing in its train a total change in our
system of labor, we have looked to im
migration as the only possible hope of
real prosperity and progress for foe
South. We therefore hailed foe first
efforts to secure laborers from abroad,
as movements in the right direction.
Some of these efforts were unsatisfac
tory in their results. They failed as
much from errors in securiug foe right
class of people, as from mistaken treat
ment of those few who sought homes
and employment among us through
these agencies. In the eagerness to
make money, these agencies have too
often procured foe vagabond population
around cities, large numbers of whom
can always be found, ready to leave
their country for their country’s good,
but who are utterly unreliable as la
borers. Many of these, coming when
our planters were impoverished, were
put into negro quarters, and fed on
negro rations. The results were unsat
isfactory to both parties, and immigra
tion, received a check in its inripiency.
Later movements, inaugurated by -in
telligent foreigners, with foe coopera
tion of thoughtful planters, have been
more satisfactory; and several hun
dred Europeans have been introduced
into our State during the last year or
two, with results that bavegiven a new
impetus to the work. Associations have
been formed for the purpose of extend
ing operations, and the prospect of good
results is now more cheering than ever.
Among foe organizations just started
for promoting immigration, we take
especial pleasure in calling attention to
"The Cotton States Land and Immi
gration Company," of Athens. Col.
Schaller, who is a member of the com
pany, is a German by birth, and a gen
tleman of culture; familiar alike with
the wants of the emigrating classes, and
of the people of the South. He spent
a year in Germany, since the war, as
an immigration agent for Virginia, and
was more successful than any of foe
numerous agents from the South, bring
ing out quite a large number of desira
ble settlers. Col. Schaller has pre
pared a number of papers on immigra
tion, which show a thorough compre
hension of the subject, in all its details,
and his known reliability will afford a
guaranty against the errors and abuses
which have attended some ojf the im
migration enterprises. His associates are
also gentlemen of known responsibility.
Dr. Newton will reside in New York,
and co-operate with foe interests of the
company there, and the offico here will
be in charge of CapL Carlton, where
orders and correspondence will receive
-attention.
They propose to bring out.laborers
of every kind—farm hands, gardeners,
hostler*, mechanics and domestic*.
We know that the member* of this
Company will guard well foe character,
and reliability of the people they induce
to settle among us; their object being,
not merely to make something out of
the business, but to make it the. nu
cleus for a voluntary immigration to
our section of a larger portion of the
swelling tide of unsdejand money that

citizens of the said county of Jackson ;
therefore.
Besolred, That while it is not the
province, and would be foreign to the
objects of tills meeting to institute in
vestigation as to the guilt of innocence
of any person or persons charged with
violating the late Act of Congress,
known as the “ Ku Klux Bill,” it nev
ertheless behooves us as good and law
abiding citizens to express, as we heart
ily do, our unqualified condemnation
of all violations of law and order of
whatever character.
Resolved, That the citizens of Jack-
son county, as heretofore, are uncom
promisingly opposed to mob law, and
to any and all secret organizations that
disturb the peace, quiet and welfare of
society.
Resolved, That having sustained a
character, unstained by auy intimation
or suspicion of disorder or lawlessness
since the surrender—the Holliday dis
turbance excepted—the people of Jack-
son county are still the friends of law
and order, and ih; enemies ofisny and
all disturb?!* of the peace.
Resolved, That in the sense of this
meeting, the civil officers of the coun
ty should be dilligent in their efforts
to ferret out and bring to justice all
violators of law and order, and we
hereby pledge them our assistance, if
necessary, in arresting any and all
lersons who may presume'to take the
aw into their own hands, or in any
way infringe upon the rights of the iu
dividual citizen.
Resolved, For good and sufficient
reasons, which we are prepared to ren
der before the proper authorities, that
the reported firing upon Mr. Hullida;
body guard of Federal soldiers in £
cerabcr of the past year, was not, in
the decided jungsment of this meeting
the deed or act, directly or indirectly,
of any citizen or citizens ot Jackson
county, and wa hereby specially invite
the attention of the authorities to this
statement, and as an act of justice to
the people of Jackson county, the most
rigid investigation of this,' as well as
all other charges against them fa urg
ently solicited.
Resolved, That the burning of Mr.
J. R. Holliday’s mills was a demonia
cal act, much regretted by the citizens
of Jacksou county ; that for this most
palpable violation of law and right,
they are not, and should not in justice
be held responsible ; and they hereby
] dedge themselves without prejudice to
: oes or partiality to friends to do all in
their power to bring foe guilty party or
parties to condign punishment.
Resolved, That copies of these reso
lutions be forwarded to the Chief offi
cer in command at Atlanta, the Mar

in Congress, and that the Athens, Au

Preparing for War.—The Charle
ston News, of yesterday, says the note
of preparation for a possible unpleas
antness with Spaiu, or even a hostile
hug from the Russian bear, can he
heard even in their quiet peaceful liar-
bor. It fa certain that t rders have been
issued for the overhauling of thei har
bor defenses at Charleston, involving
important changes and foe expendi
ture of large amounts of money. Forts
Moultrie and Sumter are about to re
ceive their proper armament^ and the
work of mounting thirty or forty heavy
guns in those works fa under contract,
and will probably be begun to-day.—
Fort Moultrie fa in good repair, but
Fort Sumter will require a vast ara-
ouut of work to make it once more the
key to tbe harbor.
Savannah Advertiser, of the 21st,

her last trip from New York, brought
