Subscribers.
Wo have, for seme time past, notified our
bscrifccrs that we should adopt the cash
:■ Aem, but have so far indulged them—it
C impossible to do so longer. We have re
c r.v.y purchased new presses, type, &c.,
have made considerable outlay, and
row we are hard up for cash, while our
: ; ooAbers owe us from 3to SIO,OOO. This
me ray we want at once, to make further
> jijmovements, and must have it; and in
f.-.tr.ro, no name .will bo entered or contin
jj'l on our eubooivptio-n book without the
n.cuc- 7. This, wo intend strictly to adhere
t , as our experience in “waiting until I
c.oyou,” is vjry bad; in fact, “wo don’t
. 3 them at all.” Now, our friends can
v:rv easily pay us the little each one of
•.move us, and while small to him it
. .akes-ecndderable to us. On and after
10th o:: February then, we erase every
r .me from our books who has not paid up,
o id send the accounts to a lawyer for col
lation; we give them till that time to
square up. We do not wish to bo mista
ken in our motives,' it is necessity, not fear
of ,;.hng the money, that compels us to
this course. Moot of pur subscribers have
been taking car paper for 20 years or more,
and been in the habit of paying at the end
of the year, or when they see Us. Now it
i j di dozen* our expenses are all cash, most
ly in advance. Our paper costs us from
$1,033 to f 1.233 a month, and our printers
$1,203 to $1,033, besides editors, reporters,
corr. pendents, &c. Now it is but fair that
our friends should pay up, as we need the
mono}’. Yde cue opposed to begging for
what is cure, and consequently, on the 10th
of February, ISCS, every man that has not
paid up, will be dropped from our list. In
future the name will be erased from the
book ac oocn as the time for which he paid
expires. Roan & Bunn.

The political Future,
An article ’ which wo copy to-day from
the New York. Times, of the 22d instant,
upon “negro .suffrage in the District—Con
gress and the President,is ominous of
evil. The Times admits the bill
1. Will probably pass tfie Senate by a de
cisive majority.
2. That ifc is only “by no means certain”
that it v r ill receive the President’s signa
ture.
3. That its main purpose is to establish a
principle which is afterwards to be applied
to the States, which principle is to be put
forward by the majority in Congress as the
indispensable condition to the re-admis
sion of the Southern States into the Un
ion.
4. That a bill is already on the tapis se
curing homesteads to negroes out of public
and confiscated lands in the Southern
States.
5. And another bill utterly ignoring all
that has hitherto been done by the Presi
dent for the restoration of the States and
remanding them back to provisional and
military governments, and
6. That these two bills will probably be
forced through by the same machinery
which secured the passage of the negro suf
frage bill.
7. That while negro suffrage, so far as
the northern States are concerned, is con
fessedly a mere bagatelle, it is a matter of
life and death to the South. The men who
know most of the colored race in the
South do not hesitate to assert that no
more fatal step for them than this could be
taken—that it will intensify inevitally and
incalculably, the hostility of races already
strong enough to demand the wisest and
most careful treatment, and the chances
aije three to one, that it will bring on col
lision, insurrection and rebellion, that may
eventually wrap the whole country in the
flames of a war ten-fold more terrible than
that w'e have just closed.
Such is the programme developed by the
leading political paper of the Seward
branch of Republicanism, and most prob
ably by the editor-in-chief, himself a lead
ing member of the conservative Republi
cans in the House of Representatives. It
leaves the chance of a Presidential veto
and the further chance that the Senate
may not be able to override it, as the last
hook to hang a hope upon. We do not be
lieve the President will sign that bill, but
it is extremely doubtful whether his veto
will defeat it.
What next? The bill remanding the
Southern States back again to military and
provisional government, as conquered
provinces, in order to subject them to ne
gro suffrage by act of Congress. These
States have organized governments under
the supervision and direction of the Uni
ted States authorities—these governments
have been formally recognized, and in so
many words guaranteed the assistance and
protection of the United States govern
ment. Can the President withdraw that
recognition and the protection so fully and
expressedly plighted ? He can do so only
by confessing that what he has hitherto
done has been mere usurpation, without
warrant of law, fundamental or statutory,
and such a practical confession, it seems
to us, would furnish ground for impeach
ment.
Would the President be likely to make
this admission? We think not; and if
not, then the alternative is a direct collis
ion between the Congress and the Execu
tive. The former demand that these
Southern State governments shall be abro
gated, and the latter says no, they cannot
be abrogated, because they are lawful gov
ernments, established under the authority
and constitution of the United States, and
I am required by both to protect and de
fend, instead of to destroy them. Congress
will then be powerless to carry out its
revolutionary scheme, until by impeach
ment it has succeeded in removing the
President and making anew appeal to the
people, if it does not choose to consum
mate its arbitrary policy under the autho
rity of the acting Vice President.
As startling as this forecast of the polit
ical future may appear, it looks to us very
probable. It is indisputable that the most
radical opinions have gained ground in
Congress every day since its organization,
and every day has shown the President’s
policy in a more hopeless minority. It is
but too clear, that he must either yield un
conditionally or prepare himself for a col
lision, which will be politically fatal to
one or the other of the parties, and which,
in acrimony and violence, will exceed
anything hitherto known in the United
States. Tho Conservatives claim that
this Congress having been elected in the
excitement and bitterness of the war, is
no true representative of popular feeling
in the North at this time. That remains
to be proved ; arid,'we are afraid, the re
sult would show that the Northern repre
sentatives know their constituents better
than the newspapers do, and that the role
of magnanimity and moderation is by no
means a favorite one with the great body
of the Northern people. A defenceless
enemy is a poor case for compromise, and
never when the South was in arms against
sectional domination, did it ever display
so unsparing and proscriptive a spirit as
now reigns in Congress.
Let us leave this dark picture of the
future with the hope that by some un
trespased path,a good Providence may lead
the South out of her afflictions and dan
gers. The road straight before seems to
bo beset with impassable obstacles, and to
darken as we advance. The preparations
for State and popular representation in
Congress appear to have been quite prema
ture and unnecessary.
Immigration.
There is yet little northern or foreign im
migration to Georgia, except what may be
discovered among the traders and mechan
ics in the town, or is embarking in the lum
ber business near the seaboard. Wo count
ed upon a large accession by imfnigration
|lo the population of Tennessee; but the
| newspapers of that State say there is none
j worthy of mention. One would naturally
; suppose that a fertile soil and a mild and
| healthful climate would at least divert a
portion of the stream of foreign immigra
tion which is pouring into the hyperborean
regions of the northwest; but so far, not a
rill tends southward. Is this the result of
mere temporary causes—the unsettled con
dition of the country a#4 the absence of ad
equate protection to property rights ? or is
ifc the working of a general law of qoloni
zation, apparent enough when we look at
it, but Which has generally escaped obser
vation and remark.
Whatever may be the reason, tho fact is
too plain for dispute, that the white race
shuns approaches to the tropics, as a gen
eral thing. The Spaniards and the French
have to some extent colonized southern lat
itudes, but it has been comparatively a slow
and feeble process, and the mongrel popu
lation of Mexico and South America dis
plays but little of the foreign stock. Noth
ing like the broad, constant and ample tide
of foreign immigration displayed in the
north-western regions of the continent, has
been visible any where else, although the
cheapest and most fertile soils—the most
salubrious climates—the richest crops—the
most valuable mines and inexhaustible
stores of vegetable wealth, have been tempt
ing the world of adventurous poor for a
century.
Such an effect as this would seem to
challenge inquiry after a cause more radi
cal than any hitherto assigned. In the
South, in the days of slavery, the existence
of that institution was assigned by its ene
mies and accepted by its friends as the all
suftlcient reason why the foreign emigrant
seldom or never crossed our borders, and
we were told and believed that when sla
very was gone, the labor vacuum would be
filled at once by a rush of white men from
abroad. So far, we see, this expectation
was erroneous; and we might have been
led to doubt it originally had we but at
tentively considered the case of Mexico
and other equally salubrious and inviting
countries of the South, where slavery had
long been abolished. If we had studied
the case of Jamaica alone, that would have
proved peculiarly embarrassing to this the
ory. There is no spot of green earth more
tempting than Jamaica, and it has the ad
vantage of being a British dependency un
der a British administration. How, then,
did it come to pass that British emigrants
turned away from Jamaica to seek our
Northwestern territories and Canada, leav
ing their government to the doleful neces
sity of drumming up Coolies to cultivate
the soil of that fertile island ?
Is there not in the Northern races an in
stinctive aversion to tropical climates or
anything bordering on them ? If not, can
it be a settled indisposition to live among
the hybrid races which pre-occupy and
doze away existence in those favored re
gions ? If this be the reason, the emancipa
ted blacks of the South will prove a more fatal
bar to white colonization than did the race
in a condition of legal subordination to the
whites.
It is to soon yet to come to settled con
clusions about our Southern future in res
pect to foreign and Northern immigration,
but experience, so fur, it must be confessed,
is well calculated lo awaken reflection.
The practical question is, must tropical, or
approximately tropical, countries forever
remain unimproved, unless cultivated un
der a system of compulsing labor—like that
which has perished in the South, or which
now exists in the East Indies, per force of
the teeming native population? It is an
uanlterable natural fact that the teeming
plenty of Southern latitudes, not crowded
with population, shall shift them into
thriftless poverty and sloth.
An Exposure ofMormonism.
The Daily Union Videsttc, a “Gentile”
paper published t»y army officers in Salt
Lake City, making a fierce assault upon
the Mormons in their own home, gives the
following letter from a disgusted ex-Mor
mon, with an explanatory introduction.
The following is a portion of a letter
written by an immigrant convert to polyg
amy, *wlio was formerly a respectable
workingman in the employ of Lawrence &
Cos., wine merchants of Hertford, England.
After a few' years’ slavery in Utah, he
worked his way to Sacramento, California,
,where he wrote this letter, hoping it would
bo the means of preventing others in that
country from being deluded by the mis
representations of Mormon proselytizers,
the polutions of whose system he became
disgusted with, and thus describes :
“Sacramento City, California, l
U. S. America, September 23, 1865. /
“Sir: In my last letter to mv mother I
promised to send you a little of my expe
rience while in Sait Lake, which I was
afraid to do while living there, as mv life
would have been endangered by so doing.
But as I am now in a free country I can
flutter my wings, and can sent! to my
friends the truth of things as they exist
there without being afraid.
In my previous letters I have been very
silent on the polygamy question. I think
a little news of that ksnd will be very in
teresting to you and a few of your friends.
In the first place, old men of seventy mar
ry girls at fourteen years of age, and in
some instances they give the parents of
the child a cow or an old gun, or some
other trifling thing. In the next place a
man will marry a girl, and that girl’s
brother will marry her husband’s daughter
and very frequently a man marries two or
three sisters ; but, worst of all, many go so
far as to marry a woman and her daughter
or daughters, as the case may be. Again’
the missionaries from there to the old
countries urge the emigration, especially
that of the females: and many women
have, when they had not sufficient means
to emigrate with their whole familiy, emi
grated with their daughters, and left their
husbandsand the rest of the family to follow
them the next year, or as soon after ns
they can procure the means. In many in
stances when the man gets there he finds
out that his wife is married to another
man, and should hebeso fortunate astoget
there with his wife, he has to keep one eye
open all the time, or he will loose her, es
pecially if she ha-s the appearance of being
a smart woman.; for I can assure you that
they are a set of old men with one leg in
the grave and the other out, crawling
round after women, and should they see
one that they think they would like, they
will tell the poor woman that her husband
can’t save her, and persuade her to get a
man higher in the priesthood than her
husband, and these old cripples often suc
ceed in getting her away, and the poor
man can’t help himself. It is the order of
the kingdom of their God.
“‘I have told you how they rnarrv. I
will now tell you how some of them*live
I will speak of those in the neighborhood
I lived. Three of my nearest neighbors
were polygamists—one an old man who
bad no children ; he lived pretty fair with
his women. The other two lived like dev
ils ; they used to fight and call each other
filthy names. If the man has means
enough begets a house for each of his wo
men, if not, they all-live together. *
One young woman that we were acquaint
ed with went and listened ono night at
the window of the other wife of her hus
band, and hoard something that she did
not like. She up with her fist and broke
almost every pane of glass in tho frame,
and for the panes she broke, her wages
were several of her teeth knocked out
Oh, Zion, when I think of thee! A sister
of one of the apostles has no less than four
husbands, and all living. Women t here,
if they don t like their husbands, go to
Brother Brigham, and he gives them a hill
of divorce, for which he charges ten dol
lars, which her late husband has to pav,
and calls that his pocket money.
‘‘ ‘Mf- W., I can assure you that thero is
not that happy smile there upon a wo
man’s countenance which characterizes an
English woman. Many of them, as sof.n
as they get there begin, to peep through
the wool that has been drawn over their
eyes, probably for years, and some of them
come out and say, Mormcnism in Utah
and Mormonxsm in England has no coni
partson. I found it so long before I got to
Salt Lake, but I would like to have found I
it out before I left my home. At any rate
I am quite eatiefled now, and have ebme to :
i tlxis conclusion, that if God owns thaLpeo
.' pie, the devil owns the best.

G ENEBAI/ 5 REMARKS.
The past week’s business will not proba
bly balance with that of the previous
week, although there is as good 'feeling in
financial affairs and in the market gener
ally. The weather for the most part has
been fair, and favorable. The recent pay
ing off of U. 8. troops at this point has
rendered money somewhat easy in second
hand circles.
CITY COTTON MARKET.
The decline in the New York and foreign
markets has had a depressing effect upon
the cotton market generally. Transactions
have been very scattering and decidedly
cautious. Tiie total sales of the week will
not reach more than 265 bales, at figures
ranging from 34 to 38 cents —the best arti
cle in the market only bringing the latter
figure.
The market is somewhat unsettled, but
the following may be considered fair quo
tations :
Ordinary 30@.32
Middling 34@35
Strict Good Middling 36037

BY TELEGRAPH
TO THE JOURNAL AND MESSENGER.
FROM WASHINGTON.
Washington, Jan. 20.— The Senate dis
cussed a bill to provide for the protection of
all persons, without distinction of color or
race, in their civil rights.
Trumbull offered to amend the bill by
inserting that all persons of African descent
born in the United States are citizen
thereof, and made a speech in support of
the bill.
Saulsbery replied, contending that the
liberties of the white man were entitled to
the same consideration, and that it was
time to cense shedding tears for the ne
groes.
A resolution was offered and referred to
the Committee on Naval Affairs, tendering
the thanks of Cangress to Faragut and his
officers for meritorious conduct in Mobile
Bay, in August, 18G4.
In the House, Raymand refuted the po
sition of those who maintained that the
Southern States were out of the Union.
he denied, and maintained that Con
gress has no power to do anything against
them more than against the other States.
The Southern States had reorganized, and
the only question was the admission of
their representatives. Congress should act
separately upon the cases from each Dis
trict, and admit those who can take the
oath. We have to live with the South, and
good policy, as well as patriotism, should
induce them to reconsider their action.' He
said the House owed it to their dignity to
repudiate select committee reconstruction ;
all the paper constitutions in the world
would not save the country, unless there
was sufficient patriotism among the peo
ple.
Washington, Jan. 29.—Official news to
the 29th December, says the French have
sent an expedition against Juarez, at El
Paso; but abandoned it on hearing that he
had made preparations to repel them.
Washington, Jan. 29.—The arrange
ments for the testimony against Captain
Semmcs are nearly completed. It is ex
pected that it will be commenced towards
the close of “the’ present week. A Naval
Commission, however, has not yet been
appointed.
Neav York, Jan. 29.—Cotton firm, sales
800 bales at 48 cents.
Gold forty.
Washington, Jan. 28.-The President to
day, said to distinguished Senators, that
the agitation of the negro franchise question
in the District of Columbia, at this time,
was a mere entering wedge to the agitation
of the question throughout the States, and
was ill-timed and uncalled for, and calcu
lated to do great harm. He believed it
would engender enmity, contention and
strife between the two races, and lead to a
war between them which would result in
great injury to both, and certain destruc
tion of the negro population. Precedence,
he thought, should be given to more im
portant and urgent matters, legistation
upon which was essential for the restora
tion of the Union and peace of the country,
and the prosperity of the people, and the
foregoing is implieity true.
Freedman’s Labor in Virginia—lm
proved State of Feeling -
The Richmond Republic of yesterday
makes the following statements:
“In reorganizing the labor system of the
country, both whites and blacks have been
embarrassed, and, in consequence, have
suffered from the delays incident to the
new order of things; but from the best in
formation we can gather, supply and de
mand are gradually correcting the evils
and restoring confidence among the classes
where strict justice is the guiding rule.
Within the past ten days we have received
private letters from farmers in various
counties, most of whom speak hopefully
of the future. We append a few extracts:
“A gentleman in Henrico writes: ‘I find
no difficulty in employing first-class farm
hands at wages varying from fifteen to
twenty dollars per month and board, they
to pay a proportionate rate for the time
they lose, and to be responsible for the
proper care of the stock, implements, etc.
At these rates I find labor much cheaper
than when I owned slaves, and am quite
convinced that my neighbors will soon
make a similar discovery, if they have not
already done so. Our trouble now is to
learn the management of free labor—to
employ it when necessary, and to dispense
with it when not needed.’
“Another, from Halifax, says: ‘I pay
my best hands fifteen dollars per month,
and they perform their work with mark
ed industry and regularity. The freed
men are learning that they must labor to
live, and I have discovered’ that they su it
me better than whites, having given them
both a fair trial.
“From Bedford, a friend writes: ‘The
negroes are learning that they must labor
or starve, and our farmers are discovering
that they must employ them or give up
the cultivation of farms. This mutual de
pendence is having a good effect, and will
soon do away with the estrangement inci
dent to the general emancipation. Where
the farmers are willing to pay living wa
ges, (fifteen dollars per month,) they find
no difficulty in getting as many laborers
as they wish to employ.
“We may continue our extracts to show
the improved state of feeling in the'eoun
try, and the importance of liberality - to the
late slaves. At twelve or fifteen dollars
per -month, deducted for sickness and loss
of time they may be able to live. At a
less price they cannot save anything, un
less the ‘privileges’ allowed them are very
limited.
“Our great aim in noticing these county
sentiments is to impress upon farmers the
importance of giving the rreedmen an op
portunity to serve them at a living price ;
and to eonvinca the freedmen that they,
like other people, must work or starve.
The agents of the Freedmen’s Bureau are
exerting themselves to remove all false im
pressions froin the mind of the race under
their charge, audio stimulate them to hon
est industry; and we are quite sure they
will succeed.
