preat as to exhaust an Edition very eoon afer it* iaene,

THE INTRODUCTION OF EMIGRANT
LABOR INTO GEORGIA.
A few weeks since, in an article that we
prepared with some labor and care, we di
rected the attention of the people ot oar
State to the Importance of securing by some
kind of organized effort, foreign emigrant
labor, to maintain and preserve the agricul
tural interests of Georgia, so seriously jeopar
dized by the sudden emancipation ol the
negro, and still more imminently threatened
with complete destruction bv the apparently
obstinate determination of the freed opera
tive not to render bis services available iu his
new relations with the owners of the soil
It affords us much gratification to perceive,
from recent movements in this city with ref
erence to this vital subject, by prominent and
influential citizens, that our suggestions and
appeals were not made in vain.
We hope and trust that the public spirited
and patriotic gentlemen who constitute the
organization recently effected in this city for
the introduction of foreign emigrant labor
into the various departments of industry,
will persevere in their noble undertaking,
and despite all obstacles and difficulties that
may beset their line of duty, accomplish a
desideratum which will be as signally bene
ficial to the suffering interests ot their good
old Commonwealth, as its achievement will
be honorable to themselves ; and which will
prove to be of more significance in the his
tory of our country than any economic or
philanthropic measure ever conceived for the
advancement of the public weal. It cau be
made by judicious and energetic manage
ment a very extensive and satisfactory move
ment-one different in its nature and causes
from any that have preceded it in the world’s
history. The plan of operations sug
gested by us, and substantially adopt
ed by the newly organized Com
pany, contemplated as one of Its main
features, the representation of ail phas
es of society in its perfection, including the
mechanical, industrial and commercial in
terests of Georgia—interests that are actually
lo govern and control the State in tne tuture,
and are to represent an immense capital in
nearch of a safe aud lucrative investment.
This is the first step towards securing a
grand migration of capital and enterprise
from Europe to this State. Hitherto we have
had a small emigration of the mere humani
ty of the Eastern Hemisphere. Only a few
of its oppressed and impoverished children,
have come to the Southern States in the bare
wish to better their physical condition, aud
they have sought our shores, because iu the
human breast ibe hope of success is always
stronger than the fear of failure. But capi
tal is moie timid, upon industry moves more
slowly. They must weigh all the chances.
They have iu their eyes every possible
chance of failure. All may not be exactly
as it is painted—the government may break
down—the country may go to pieces. Capi
tal and industry must be assured, and such
points before they move ; and these assur
ances can be given. We have just shown
our government to be the strongest, on the
face of the earth. The intelligent masses of
Georgia know aud feel that not one ol its
Jialious could come sately through the strug
gle we have just experienced. No other
nation on earth could have survived a shock
of war, the intensity ot which was occasion
ed not more by the immense numbers and
courage of the North than the impetuous
gallantry and tenaciousoess ot purpose ot the
South. The war also iu the destruction of
slavery, we honestly believe, has severed the
only questiou that made the tuture of this
country doubtful; and capital and industry,
with their delicate instincts lor the safe side', -
recognize that our Government is the stable
one of the world.
We have in Georgia some of tha best
country in the world, lying waste for the
want of the means, the capita], the energy,
1.0 realize and utilize its wealth. We wel
come, therefore, this new industrial aud
financial movement in our midst—this in
ceptive migration of foreign people and capi
tal to our shores. There is much of promise
for the country in this movement, and tor
imported labor aud capital there is a certain
return beyond even the conception of the
moat vivid imagination.
This is a matter that will address itself
with singular force to the attention of the
State Convention shortly to assemble at
Milledgeville, and we shall take occasion at
the appropriate time to commend it in suita
ble terms to the consideration of that body,
•with the conddent expectation that it will
aid in gome form the efforts of the Company
in this city to attain the grand objects in
view.
It bas been eloquently and truthfully said
by & Northern contemporary, that tbetnigra- !
tions of the industrial development of human !
energy—of that composite power made up j
of capital, skill, ingenuity and enterprise— !
furnish one of the most remaiiuble points iu I
the history of nations. Cartnage grew up |
tinder such a movement trmxi Sidon and j
Tyry, and her greatness was tne direct re- 1
suit of it, while as the purple robe ct the
older cities fell upon the younger one, their
vitality passed away.
The capital and labor of Greece went from
Corinth to Syracuse to settle and develope
Sicily and the Italian cities, and centuries of
European civilization felt the e&ct of it.
And in later times, the revocation of the
edict of Nantes drew out of France the
Huegenots—those industrious workers of
every class, who carried their ingenuity and
skill to adorn and enrich other countries.

CORKUROUL \'l* FIVI rtiL CY
* iRI.
It wan Ssrmniy said that in ever, tentti
year a commercial and financial ry He is sure
to occur. Events seem to confirm this con
clusion as regarde England and the Ur, t».i
States, at least. Tbe earliest financial cri
ui England of which history gives an ac
count, attended l>v thP destruction of a larg.
number ol private bunks and much cornin' i
cial bankruptcy, occurred iu 1792. Duiiug
the war of a quarter of a century that en
sued .there was no commercial or fimi 'O
crisis lor in that interval the susj • n <>•
specie payments (1797) bv the Bank of Lag
laud look place. There was o
■pecOlative excitement,but no .-eg ,a! collapse,
having its source in tin *wo great cx.ension
of credit.
fti 1815, during the transition from war to
peace, the fall iu the prices of agricultural
produce from the opening ol the British
purls, was attended by the destruction of
210 country banks and a wider range of bank
ruptcy than, according to McCulloch, had
previously taken place anywhere else, ex
cept, perhaps, in France at ihe bt caking up
of the Mississippi schemes.
There was the speculative and reactionary
vear of 1825, a decade beyond, iu which mil
lions of dollars were absorbed in losses on
cotton in the United Stales, by joint stock
speculations and advances by British capital
ists to the governments of South America,
occurring nearly simultaneously.
In the years 1845-47, tru years after, sim
ilar eventswere attended by similar results—
by speculation, reaction and immense losses.
In the years 1857-59, it will be recollected
by all our readers, nearly, the same series of
occurrences took place iu ttie United Stales,
which reacted iu England from the intimate
connection between the two countries, ihe
suspension of all our banks was the conse- j
queuce of the commercial excitement anti
financial collapue of that period.
The theory by which the nearly regular j
recurrence of these periods of commercial
and financial crises, have been explained i3 j
that it requires a petiod of ten years for J
countries to recuperate, which experience ,
great commercial losses, and become obli
vious of their disasters in tiade, which,
together with the accumulation of capital i
and the fall in the interest of money, render
the classes prone to speculation restless and j
prepared to enter into fresh specu.utions ,
This explanation may be admitted in the
absence of a better, but to found on it a pre- ;
diction that may be merely the effect
of accidental coiucideuceis certainly not
logical. Some of the papers finding,
we suppose, that there ate no signs of
a collapse are extending the period
to fifteen years—to 1880, and even to 1895,
on what grounds is not stated. The decen
nial period 1807 may not be passed. If we
deduct the feur yeats of war, and suppose
the ten years not to be continuous, we
would be carried as the year of collapse to
1880, but all such calculations are extremely
visionary aud unsubstantial.
Influence o: Mechanical DGeovei yon ttie
Abolition of Slavery.
There is said to be an expectation among
the planters of the island of Cuba that slave
ry will be gradually abolished in that island
from the progress made in mechanical dis
covery. The following statistics are offered
to show the rapid advance of mechanical as
compared with manual labour. Iu 1840, there
were iu the island (says the New York
Times,) 323,772 slaves, while the produc
tion of sugar was 17,729,589 arrobas. Iu
1862 the slaves numbered 388,550, and the
production of sugar reached 41,418,444 ar
robas. Thus, while the increase of slaves
was less than 14 per cent., the increase of
sugar production was more than 130 per
cent. The introduction of machinery, new
improved methods of culture, and immigra
tion from China, have been the cause of this
change, and they are considered certain to
continue in a still increasing ratio to replace
slave labor.”
The influence of machinery in agriculture
generally, has been almost beyond belief,
especially when directed by steam. “Tue
Annual of Scientific Discovery” says a
“General Steam Cultivation Company " has
been started in London, with a capital ot
over a million of dollars, whose object is an
nounced to be to purchase, keep yn hand,
and rent or let to farmers, at reasonable rates,
every kind of steam agricultural implement.
The prospectus suggests that many farmers
would gladly use steam iu ploughing aud
otherwise working their soil, but cauuot at
lord to iuvest several thousand dollars in the
needful machinery. To these this company
proposes to be helpful. It is asserted that
applications are already received for renting
machinery to the value of a quarter of a mil
lion of dollars. A Mr. Smith, ot Woolst m,
England, who has especially exerted him
self during the last four years to promote
•‘steam culture,” has recently published a
resume of his personal experience in the mat
ter. He states that the cost of preparing
land for roots was, with steam $2.88; with
hands $10.03 ; for barley, two years, $2.16
with steam against $5.05 by horse power :
lour years for wheat $50.20 by steam against
the same lor horse power, and foots up a
total for a number of other articles, which
shows a gain of two hundred ]<er cent, in favor
i of steam. The writer says, also, that besides
j the economy of the plan he had much better
crops.
A movement is on foot in New York for
tbe establishment of a second House of de
ception, in tbe midst of the city, for fallen
women who may desire to reform, the H jine
previously established for that purpose being
tilled to its utmost capacity. The gentlemen
iu their appeal to tbe public for funds, say it
is not deemed necessary to cct forth the
| enormity of tbe evil which so loudly calls
j for vigorous efforts at removal. It stares us
|>n the lace on every corner and in every
| street. It is one of the most melancholy
features of this social evil, and at the same
1 time a source of encouragement to labor tor
their reformation, that so many of the victims
of this vice are youug girl*.
A circular addressed by Earl Russell to tbe
various diplomatic agents of tbe British Gov
ernment says, alluding to tbe continuance of
tbe slave trade, “ Her Majesty's Government,
actuated by tbe horror to which so odious a
commerce bas given rise throughout tbe
world, has arrived at the conclusion that
nothing would be more efficacious for its re
pression than to visit those guilty of it with
punishment proportioned to the gravity of
the evil.”

Washington, Oct, 4, 1865. )
State laws with regard to apprenticeship
will he recognized by this bureau, provided
they make no distinction ot color; or, in
case they do so, the said laws applying to
white children will be extended to the color
ed. Officers of this bureau are regarded as
guardians of orphans and minors of freed

principle to be adhered to with regard to
paupers is that each county, parish, town
ship or city shall care for and provide for
its own poor. Vagrant laws made for free
people and now in force on the statute books
of the States embraced in the operations of
this bureau, will be recognized and extended
to the freedmen. Assistant commissioners
will draw up specific instructions applicable
to their respective States, in accordance with
the loregoing principles.
O. O. Howard,
Maj. Gen. and Commissioner.
It is evident from the tollowing order, is
sued from the Freedmen's Bureau on the
same day, that the restoration of property
now held as abandoned and confiscated, is
to lie entered into bv Commissioners of the
Bureau throughout the South with scrupu
lous exactness in regard to the title of the
same and the legal ownership thereof. The
circular subjoined corroborates this view
Assistant commissioners are directed in
their reports of abandoned or confis
cated lands to arrange the names of
former owners of such landj in each county,
district or parish in alphabetical order. The
number of acres herein required <o be stated
will always be giveu as nearly as the same
can be ascertained. Copies of all orders re
turning property to former owners will be
forwarded to this Bureau as soon as issued,
in compliance with special instructions from

such cases will he returned with copies of
the orders.

IF* ROSjPECTXJS
or THE
GEORGIA LAND
EMIGRATION COMPANY.
SLAVERY, or involuntary servitude is practically
abolished in Georgia Tbe reclamation of the
President of the United States having given freedom
to every slave, and the oath of amnesty and the con
ditions of pardon, forbid any attempt at its revival in
any form cr condition.
ihe gieat mass of the Agricultural Population of
the State has been released horn their obligation to
cultivate the soil, except by their own volition, and
it must be apparent to the judicious observer, how
ever much o oe regretted, that the voluntary labor
of the newly freed population will not for the present
at least, supply the deficiency of labor.
The withdrawal of nearly three hundred thousand
able-bodied persons to u greater or less extent irom
their vocations has created a void which must
be filled or the landp of the State will remain uutiiied,
her great resources undeveloped and her future pros
perity sacrificed.
The remedy, and the only remedy for this condition
of affairs contista in the immigration of a hardy and
industrious white population, to supply the places of
those who cannot oe compelled to work and whose
and apositions do not incline them to greater labor than
is actually necessary to support life.
To such immigrants, no State offers greater induce*
meats than the Stale of Georgia. Extending from
the Atlantic Ocean to the Blue Kige, it embraces ove
ry variety of soil and climate. The savannahs oi the
coast, the rolling country of the interior, and the
mountains of the noithern part of the State afford
opportunities for the cultivation o<* almost ever/ pro
duct of tropical or temperate latitude.
The grape is grown with great .success in many
parts ol the State and its cultivation has only been
limited by the want of persons skilled In the knowl
edge of the vine and the mode of preparing its yield
The State is also rich in gold and other minerals, and
nothing but energy ana ihe application of proper ma
chinery is wanting to the development of those bid
den treasures.
The raising of sheep of the finest breeds has been
carried on with success, and the vast mns;ea of uncul
tivated land afford excellent pastures for cattle and
all kind? of stock—rice, cotton, tobacco, corn, wheat,
rye, oats, sugar cane, the grape and aU species of
iruitsfind then appropriate soil and climate within
our extended limits.
The numerous rivers and smaller streams taking
their rise in the mountains and running through the
State into the Atlantic and the Gulf in their gradual
descent furnish water power unfailing in any season
and capable of putting into operation any kind of
machinery,
The area of the State con talus upwards of thirty
millions ot acres, o which not more than one-third
has been cultivated, and the virgin forest of the wild
lands afford an inexhaustible supply of lumber which
formed a heavy item of the exports of o' eorgia prior
to our late difficulties. These lands which maybe
bought at comparatively vow rates will give to the
new settler a homestead on which he mav erect Ills
rooftree and settle for life an inhabitant aiid in time a
citizen of the republ c.
In view of the foregoing facts the undersigned pro
pose to organize a Company to be ( allied the -Georgia
Land and Emigration Company,” the principle office
to be located in Savannah, with the intention of ap
plying for a charter at the next sescion of the Legisla
ture ; the capital of baid Company to be five hundred
thousand dollars, in twenty thousand of twenty-five
dollars each; said Company to be organized by the
choice of a President and Directors when all the
shares shall have been subscribed.
Tbe object of the Company is to induce and afford
aid to the immigration into the State of Georgia of
honest, sober aud reliable persons with their iamliies
to become purchasers of aud settlers on lands not now
in use, or to be laborers on farms or plantations ou
which the freediueu refuse to work, or 10 follow iheir
trades, or become house servants.
The advantages to be derived as this present junc
ture by the influx oi such a class of population, are
mauilest. To tne large landholder It offers the pros
pectof selling his laud or farming it out on advanta
geous term.". To the Planter ana Fanner It will sup
ply that labor, in tho absence of which, the owner
ship of the soli is a burthen, and to all persons In
those classes of life whose business requires or whose
position permits the n-eof toe labor of other*. itai
lords the opportnaity of obtaining such labor of
a reasonable rate, and of a reliable character. So
also to the State will great benefit accrue; many of
the immigrants may bring wealth with them, all will
bring skill or industry, which U> the source of wealth,
and this infusion of ue v life will, we trust, iu progress
of time, restore Georgia to her original state of pros
perity.
The Company we believe—will be, not only self-eus
turning, but a source of profit to the stockholders.—
Tbe fees paid by those emigrant* who can afford It,
for directions as to their settlement; the commissions
paid by the owners of lands lor the sale, or leasing of
their lands to the immigrants, and by persons to
whom laborers are furnished, the profits to be derived
from a Savings Institution to tabs care of the funds
and profits of the emigrants, which It is proposed to
connect with the Oomi>any. will, we expect, enable
the Company to declare such dividends as will make
it remunerative U> those who subscribe simply as an
investment. Biff independently of pecuniary con
sideration. as citizens of the State o. Georgia who
have an interest In its future weliare, we ask your as
sistance in this matter, in our opinion of vital impor
tance. We may not leave the lHnd of our birth, let
us make it ouce more a land of promise.
