White Labor. —Messrs. Jacob R,
Davis A Son, have been appointed Agents
in this vicinity for the Immigration Coinpa
oy. These gentlemen have assured us that
white laborers can be engaged from them
for any length of time, and at less rates than
freedmen. aud every guarantee furnished
for the faithful performance of contracts.
This is a desideratum much needed at pres
ent. Farmers have suffered terrible loss by
the faithlessness of the freedmen, and their
interest will be protected by the employ
ment of white labor. The negroes will not
work, in a majority of eases, where contracts
hare been made, and heavy Fosses have been
entailed upon the employer. We do not
think it necessary to state tho many advan
tages that will accrue from the system of
white labor, when they are so well known.
We are in favor of a White Man’s Bureau,

Stonewall Jackson.
