RKPOBT OF Tlir, EDGEFIELD COLONIZA
TION SOCIETY.
In the last Edgefield Advertiser we
find a most interesting report from the
8genta, Messrs. Meriwether and .Shaw,
appointed by the Southern Colonization
Society, of fvlg< field District, to explore
certain portions of Brazii. To those w ho
have resolved to abandon their homes and
seek an asylum among strangers, thi? re
port will possess absorbing inter st. At
llio, the agents met Dr. Gaston, of Colum
bia, who having made an extensive tour
in the interior of the province of St.
J’aulo, was enabled to give them much
valuable information, which induced them
to believe that, that Province, lying
between 22 and 25 degrees .South lat
itude, is the most suitable for our peo
ple, on account of health, climate and pro
ductions, being by its whole length and
breadth just within the frost line, except
its higher table lands which are free from
frost the year round. They therefore, in
company with l>r. Gaston, started for a
thorough exploration of the country —
The result of the journey was highly sat
isfactory to the agents, from whose account
the region visited would seem to be the
garden spot of the world. Lands admira
bly adapted to most all the productions
of the United .States, including cotton of
the best quality, can he procured at prices
ranging from fifty cents to two dollars
per acre. If a large number of families
from the States will settle there, official
assurance is given that good roads will be
opened up immediately. We regret that
the great length of the report prevents its
publication entire. We give below, how
ever, its highly interesting conclusion :
In conclusion, you will pardon us for
indulging in some general observations,
as to the truthful result of our experience.
The vast domain of Brazil contains the
most fertile soil in the universe, and more
cheap lands to allure the emigrant than
any other nation under the sun. Eor the
supply of the millions that will soon be
flocking to her shores, she abounds in the
precious metals and cosily gems, and in
the most valuable products known to
commerce. “ The cattle upon a fhotisand
hills ” arc hers, and may be yours, and
such cattle ns man never beheld in any
other clime. The earth yields almost
spontaneously, the grain and fruit and
vegetables, that most delight the palate
and satisfy the wants of men. To gratify
the sportsman, the woods arc full of game,
of deer, of wild hogs, and partridges and
quails, and of the most delicate birds of
every hue and ol every description, whilst
her innumerable rivers and water courses
teem with fish of the greatest variety and
the finest flavor. And if the people do
not catch and cat, it is only because her
'other productions are so highly prized
that they deem it wiser to devote their
time to those, and to “ fish with silver
books.” There is nothing that man
needs or can fancy, which lie may not
raise or procure hcic, with the least im
aginable toil. Her water power is suffi
cient to drive all the machinery in the
world, and her natural and material re
sources arc equal to the support of the
population of China
Below Rio, the seasons are precisely
opposite to ours, their spring or planting
season beginning with the beginning of
our fall, and their summer beginning with
our first, and ending with our last winter
month. But that nothing may be. want
ing for the encouragement of the agricul
turalist, in this happy region, unlike most
of the other portions of the habitable
globe, the summer is its wet, and the
winter its dry season, and its good lands
never wash away.
It may be asked, however, what are
the hindrances and drawbacks to the
population and development of this won
drous territory ? What natural enemies
has it to man, and the products of the
earth, what wild ferocious animals and
enormous reptiles to disturb his repose,
and what noxious insects to destroy the
fruits of his labor? 'When we answer
these questions fraukly you will be ama
zed at the hallucinations under which
you have labored all your hil'c. We tra
versed one province for over a thousand
miles, taking six months from our depar
ture hence to make our explorations, and
during the whole of that period we discov
ered no ravenous beasts worth naming,
and only three or four serpents of dimin
utive size, and no more to be feared than
those seen every day in your fields and
forests. The insects that prey upon the
crops including the red ant, arc not so
destructive as those which infest our
richest lands, and there is no rust or suffi
cient frost to check or obstruct the
the growth of their beautiful cotton.—
Moreover, since the memory of man there
has been no earthquake there, no subter
ranean fire, no volcanic eruptions to appal
the hearts or to disturb the security of
its inhabitants, and its men and women
live to a riper old age thau even in this
once favored country.
Though there are a few legal and re
ligious or canonical impediments to the
foreigner or emigrant, such as that he
may not reach one or two of the highest
offices in the State, and may not, if a
Protestant, erect a cross upon his Church,
yet the whole spirit of Brazil is opposed
to such hindrances, and a mighty and
united effort is now being made, with the
most certain prospects of success, to place
the naturalized citizen and the native
Brazilian on an exact equality, in all
privileges, and to all honors that the
Government can bestow.
The Constitution of the Empire is mod
eled after the British, abating some ol the
most objectionable features, such as the
rights of primogeniture, and a hercditaiy
nobility, and the working of the govern
ment is harmonious, steady, just aud pow
erful. The Emperor is a wise and mag
nanimous ruler, sprung from an intellec
tual and illustrious race, and ready at all
times to condescend to any man or thing,
compatible with the dignity of his coun
try. lie and his ministry, and indeed
his entire people, appear to be animated
and actuated by the same enlarged and
generous views of the future greatness
and the destiny of the wide and magnifi
cent realm. The foreigner on entering
its dominions finds no prejudices to com
bat, no antipathies to avoid, but a liberal
minister ready to welcome, and a popula
tion to greet him, and a sovereign to offer wou! i be set at liberty on the paymeut of

SOME OF THE OUTRAGES OF THE BUREAU.
Opposite Newbern, on the other side of
the river, some2,500 freedtnen have been
settled for five years past. They were
invited there by the military, and located
on tire little plats of ground which they
were allowed to cultivate. Flight months
ago Edward S. Fitz, a Massachusetts
preacher, was placed in charge of Trent I that the guards acted without orders;

had not extended proper protection to dissolve,! by mutual consent, on
, . , , f 1 , l , , . , March, Mr. J. H. Johnson haring withdrawn
the prisoner, and had authorized his uial- | t - r0!n ltie ,. oncern
treatment by the guard ; that charge two
is- not sustained, but that the trials before
Mr. Fitz’s court seem often, to have been
conducted with indecent Itasto; that in
case three Mr. Fitz is exonerated from all
blame; that in case four manifest neglect
and inattention had bccu exhibited, but
whether from accident or design did not
appear; that in case five the charge was
proved, but, in extenuation, it was shown
urated. Fifty cents a month ground
was demanded for every plat on
mnu
rent
which
erected. Every darkey who kept a store
was taxed five dollars a month. Every
one who owned a horse was taxed a simi
lar amount. Failure to pay any of these
exactions was punished by the imprison
ment of the man or his wife, the confis
cation of his little property, and in many
cases the tearing down of his house. A
negro who quarrelled with his wife was
fined S100, and scut to prison until he
paid it. All these extortions were prac
ticed upon a population steeped in the
deepest poverty, scourged by disease, and
many of them wanting the common
necessaries of life, and in thus manner an
income of at least $800 a month was
derived by the Bureau. The complaints
dismissal, but appended an opinion that
these charges were not made against him
the miserable little cabins were by Mr. Laidlcr with any desire to benefit
the freednmn. but from mere personal
spite. This finding has not yet been
confirmed.
THE CHARGES ACTUALLY SUSTAINED.
The evidence as it actually stands upon
the official record not only seems to sus
tain all the charges but introduces new
elements of horror. It was proved that
Fitz had taken men who had never had
the small pox out of the prison, where
they were confined for non payment of
fiyos and other offenses against the Trent
settlement code, and had marched them
under guard and compelled them to bury
poople who had died of the small pox.—
That he had also refused to give coffins
to people who had died of the disease,
, - , . , , , „ ,, . , superior officer, was examined, and stated
charges and laid them before Captain bc had authorizcd the infliction of
oceley, the Bureau superintendent at 1 g
Newbern. A court of inquiry was de
manded by Mr. Fitz, and a committee
of investigation was ordered by Captain
Seely.

Dr. J. \V. Wilev.—The Fnll Set of Teeth
you made for my wife about 8 years ago, arc-
all that could be desired. They are pronoun
ced by all who have seen them as beautiful, and
as to their durability and usefulness, I would
state, they never have needed repair, and that
my wife's health has been transformed from
bad to good, owinjr no doubt to their perfect
adaptability to mastication. 4Ym. G. IIeriuxo.
My wife had been afflicted with a nervons
head ache for more than a year, caused from
indigestion consequent upon the loss of teeth.
Dr. Wiley inserted a set of Artificial Teeth,
and it was but a few weeks when we discover
ed quite an improvement in her health. Hhe
is now enjoying robust health, and I believe is
purely Indebted to his skill in assisting nature
tn the discharge of a proper mastication.

With pleasure we recommend Dr. While) - as
a scientific Dentist. He is not only entitled to
the patronage of the Southern people as being
a regular graduate in his profession, but, from
his devotion and self sacrifice to the cause of
our once happy South. If we forego merit for
charlatanism from personal feelings, let us con
sider the appreciation of those who gave their
support in our struggle for Southorn indepen
dence. Every one admits that he makes bet

get value received for their money. We ten-
