The Savannah Daily Herald. BY S. W. MASON & CO. SAMUEL XV. MASON, Editor, W. T. THOMPSON, Associate Editor. Official Paper of the City. LAR9EST CIRCULATION IN THE CITY AND COUNTY FRIDAY JANUARY 10. 1806. EMIGRATION TO GEORGIA Believing that the dilapidated interests of our Slate might be greatly resuscitated by the introduction ot foreign emigrant labor, we have attempted more than once to de rnouslraie the urgent necessity for prompt action iu regard thereto, as well a3 its fea: biiiiy by the energetic and skillful appliance of means which have been used most sue cet"fully in other communities. Our attention has been directed to this subject again by the recent announcement in tne Picayune, of the arrival in New Or leans ol a large number of German immi grant?, who have made favorable engage lueuts with planters residing in the interior ol the State. If is a little remarkable, if not discredits bie, that while commendable efforts have been made, with partial success at least, by Louisiana, Florida and Texas to supply, in the manner we have indicated the pressing demand for additional aud reliable labor, Georgia, with a more inviting c imate and a soil as productive as that of the States named has exhibited no such spirit of enterprise. It may be stated briefly that our people have unaccountably ignored a matter which deserved their especial attention because of its pre-eminent importauce. It must be conceded Ly all sensible men that labor system has to be constructed, an upon emigration we must chiefly rely for the materials l' r its reconstruction It equally apparent that a large per Cei:t-gc o the present colored population cannot be cm braced in a correct estimate of the amount of available labor in the State. But. if this were not the case, and the de- ve.opnient of the entire industrial capacity of the negroes were practicable we might still urge tiie adoption of our views upon the wel grounded assumption that there is a riefi citucy of labor throughout the State. This was manilest prior to the breaking out of the war. It was shown by the census of 1860, in the small per centage of lands actually un der cultivation, and their low average value as compared with the New England, Middle and Northwestern States. In density of popu- latioa there is the same contrast. The popu lation to the square mile of the several sec tions, in 1850 was—slaveholding States, 11.85 persons ; New England States, 41.94; Middle States, 57.94. In South Carolina the number of farms over one thousand aeres was 2,718, in Jr’cnusylvania 17. The same ratio pre vailed in a genera! comparison of the State? of the two sections. i he?e statistical exhibits are conclusive arguments iu favor of resorting to intelligent and vigorous measures at the earliest mo- ment fo iudtice an influx of population and of cup.tal from abroad. And as the people of the State have let the subject go by default, we beg leave to commend it to the attention ol the Legislature, as worthy of their highest consideration. V. r e hope that this body will appoint a committee of intelligent members, who will carefully study the whole subject by putting themselves in communication with the best sources of information, and re port such action by the Legislature and the people as will meet the necessities ol’the case. And if succcfs should crown their efforts enough will be accomplished for the welfare of the State to entitle them to the gratitude rf those whom they represent. it has been suggested by a cotemporary that the Southern States shall unite in the effort to attract emigration, and to construct a labor syotem—as separate action may lead to tivalry, confusion and general bad re sults—that the several Southern States shall appoint Commissioners to act in concert, aud that this joint commission shall be permanent. But whether united or separate State action shall be determined upon too much energy and care cannot be bestowed in shaping the needful measures. Formidable competition will bo experienced at the very outset. Un der the laws of Congress actual settlers iu the new State's and Territories received do nation of one hundred and sixty acres each, and the Bureau of Immigration at Washing ton, and the Emigrant officers at other chief points are making strenuous exertious to at tract emigrants to the public lands. Before inaugurating measures loosing to emigration, we should avail ourselves ot all the information to be derived from every intelligent practical and experimen tal source. There should be pub lished a full account of the various resources of our State, of the climate and its influence on the constitutions of men coming from Northern latitudes; of the lands aud their present condition as to fertility and titles; of the various products which can be raised ; of the best location for vine culture ana fruit iu general; and an account of the existing rai:roads, and also of the commerce and the various branches of industry to be carried on. We throw out these suggestions with the hope that they will attract the attention of those of our ciliz.-us who are interested in the subject of emigration, aud will give it the attention to which it is entitled. —Tiie Raleigh (N. G.) Sentinel ba3 heard It repeatedly rumored, sinco Gov. Holden was relieved, that there were good grounds for believing that President Johnson designed giving him some bubstautial proof of liis ap preciation of his services by tendering him a po.uioa of importance. Recently it has been said that he would be tendered au appoint ment as Minister to Peru or some other South American republic. — Orders have been issued tor the release of R. B. Winder, the rebel Quartermaster, who has been held in confinement at the Old Capitol and at Richmond ou the supposition that he was R. S. Winder, tin confederate of Wirz in the butcheries at Antlr-rsonville. Another lot of long winded letters in re gard to steps taken by the so-called Empe ror of Mexico to obtain from the United States a recognition of the so-c^Ied Empire of Mexico are published, but they add but little to the information already given to the public upon this subject. Mr. Wil.-on, of Massachusetts, has offered in the Senate the petition of the colored citi zens of Savannah, asking for the light of suffrage. Referted to the special Committee un Reconstruction. NATIONALITY. This term has of late received a very wide signification. Writers on pablic law have so far extended its meaning, so indefinite have been their reasonings, that the West minster Review has, in its October number, bsen induced to ask, “What is a Nationality? Is it au aggregation of people of the same race, as in Alsace; or speaking the same lan guage, as in Italy; or possessing a common history, as in Poland; or having marked geographical boundaries, as in Schleswig- Holstein t Or is it merely a province, like Savoy, where universal suffrage, tempered by French bayonets, elicits the wish of the people for annexation to a powerful neighbor to which they are neither attached by ties of race, language, history or geographical affi nity? Russia denies the right of Poland to be called a nationality, and claims it for Rulbenia; Austria makes herself the cham pion of the principle of nationality in Schleswig-Holstein, and remains its bitterest foe in Veuetia; Prussia makes war on Den mark because it refuses to give the Dut hies a separate administration, and forces Ger man institutions and the German language on the inhabitants of Posen. This principle of i ationality has broken treaties, dissolved alliances, and acquired so gnat an influence on the destinies of Europe, that a clear idea of its r<^l meaning has become indispensable to the correct appreciation of any continental difficulty." Tiiis is a striking passage that will attract attention, and, perhaps, assist us to solve our difficulty—i.c., to define the meaning of this term nationality. The tests of the reviewer bring us very little nearer to our object, al though his language is more precise and defi die than usual. He says “identity of race, anguage, or religion does not constitute a nationality: it is only one of the causes which produce the conditions above stated We shou d nut call the Scotch, nor the pco lc or the Southern States of America a na tion idiy, for the first d<> not fulfil the latter f'hese conditions, aud the second do not fulfil the former.” Now, according to this description, neither >f the words race or religion applies to the 3cotch—therefore the Scotch do not fulfill the condition of nationality. The people ot the Southern States of America are, accord ing to the writer, in fulfillment of these con ditions. Adopting his own definition, nationality is a body of people with strong distinctive national characteristics and au evident tendency to independent political action," there is not one example in history that corresponds with it. Poland presents ‘a body of people with strong distinctive peculiarities and with an evident tendency to independent political action.” Yet the recent unsuccessful attempt is the third she has made to liberate herself from the tyran nical bondage of Russia. Hungary presents all the features that render that country a community homogeneous not only in na tional characteristics but in race and reli gion. In what respect has she been able to vindicate her claims to nationality ? The instance that is passing before our eyes con futes the doctrines of the reviewer. The Fenians present all the conditions that should stitle them to success—race, religion, a com mon language. Are the Irish any nearer the consummation of their independence than they were when they were subdued by Oliver Cornwell, or at the battle of the Boyne ? The controlling circumstance in all cases not any moral force, but power—physical iorce. Russia found it easy to bring Poland at each time of her revolt back into subjec- ion, by her legions—by her immense power. So lias every State with disproportionate physical forces and the advantage of near neighborhood. Ireland will remain in sub jection to Great Britain for an indefinite period. So will Poland to Russia, Hungary to Austria, Venetia to Austria, and will con tinue so until the relative situation of these powers i9 changed. The world will want a efinition when power is restrained by jus tice, or when the balance of power is so ad justed as to protect each separate State in its rights. Then the political equilibrium v ill be something more than a myth or ideality. IN GENERAL.. —The President of the American Bank Note Company has submitted several designs the Treasury Department for the forth coming three dollar National bank note— Carpenter’s picture of President Lincoln reading bis Emancipation Proclamation will form the back decoration of the note. —A Senator is said to have received a let ter from Kentucky, stating that a movement is being organized to return John C. Breckin ridge to the Senate in the place of Garrett Davis. —The rumor of Mr. Stanton’s retirement from the Cabinet has been authoritatively contradicted. —A delegation of Northwestern distillers and whiskey dealers are in Washington for the purpose of urging upon Congress the re duction of the tax ou whiskey to one dollar per gallon. They represent that the present tax is ruinous to their interests, and amounts almost to a prohibition of the pursuit of this business. —An advocate of Colmar, France, lately left a legacy ol $20,000 to the lunatic asylum of that town- “I earned this money," his will states, “by the patronage of those who go to law ; my present gift is but a restitution." —Accounts from Spain represent that the cholera has broken out with great severity at Santander. On the 22d of December, 130 cases and 56 deaths occurred, and on the fol lowing day the number of the latter had in- reused to 60. Among the victims is the Governor of the provicne. —Last week, as a railroad train was stop ping at Gordonsville, Va., to put off the mail, quite a crowd who had assembled there made an assault upon the mail agent, who was a Northern man—as the Post Office De partment appoint none who cannot take the oath. They informed him that they would nof allow any Yankees to run on their roads. Words led to blows, and the train moving off, the mail agent escaped with his life. On le porting this to the Post Office Department, Gov-Randall immediately struck Gordons- ille from the list of po9t offices, and trains now run by that point. — In the city of Boston, says the State Constable, there are in full operation at least tourteen gambling establishments, (and many minor ones,) the annual profits from which to the proprietors are estimated at from $300,000 to $500,000. At some of them the daily attendance of players is from one hundted to two hundred. Important to Insurance Companies.—By reference to a circular from the office of the Comptroller General, dated Milledgeville, January llth, I860, it will be seen that the Agents of all insurance companies organ ized and managed by persons without the limits of Georgia are requested to make re turns under oath, and pay a tax of one per cent, upon all premiums received in this State for the year closing December 81st, 1865.
