TO THE PEOPLE OF GEORGIA.
Tin: FARMCONVENTION AT MAC ON,
DKCEKBEII y, 1808.
ThcJ’rt of Georgia Hey nested to ( ofnj
this Address and Keep the Subject
Before the People. .1 u « H
The undersigned were appointed a
Committee, at a incctieg of the Agricul
turists held in the City of Eatoutou, Ga-,
at the late Agricultural Fair in Putnam
Count}*, to address you on the subject of
Immigration, and to ask your coopera
tion. It was agreed to hold a meeting
ut the City Hall, at 10 o'clock, A. M. f
on Wednesday, the 9th day of December,
ensuing, composed of one delegate, at
least, from each County in the State, to
devise and set on foot the best plan for
all the different sections of Georgia to
promote immigration from the Northern
States and Europe, as will furnish the
best labor, on the best terms, for the im
provement and- development of all the
varied interests of Georgia and Georgians.
Touching the immediate subject of immi
gration, the Committee deem it best not
to propose any plan of actiou iu this Ad
dress, but to leave the whole uuestiou to
the Convention—and we simply urge a
foil attendance at the Convention.
1 This, People of Georgia, i« »u small
work, Doris ita Utopian idea. Aud now
is the time for the work to begin. It has
already been delayed too long, and if
deferred still, w ill only end in greater
• ! V" , , ' ; ‘ f
injury.
Fanners of Georgia ! the burden rests
mainly on your shoulders. Others arc
to be benefitted in a corresponding ratio :
but it devolves maiulv upon you to “put
the ball in motion.” Co-operation is
what we need. This is to be effected by
full and free discussiou of the whole ques
tion. This can be had at Macon at the
time specified. We cordially invite you.
therefore, Farmers of every County in
Georgia, to appoint one or more Dele
gates to represent your interests in the
Contention at Macon, and to aid in the
work. Wo must uut wait. There is too
much danger in delay. Too much sacri
fice in postponement. Send the bestmeu
you can get, and let the good work com
mence. It will take months to accom
plish the first step in the enterprise. It
is all important to begin right. One
false step may be productive of inealeu
lahlc mischief. Our present labor, from
the signs of the times, will, iu a few
ycfir»s more, be almost worthless. Tfc is
not the sort of labor we need now. It j*

inadequate, unskilled, and unreliable, and
becoming more so every year. * i
Maryland is awake ! Virginia if
arousing ! Missouri, Texas, and Ar
kansas are nil moving ! Georgians ! we,
too, must begin, if We would save our
good old State, ourselves, and our chil
dren, from abject poverty. Our Invita
tion is earnest ; the crisis is near ; the
results certain and glorious, if w*« begin
Ti;rht, begiu in time, and not throughout
with wisdom. Let us have representa
tives frtmi every County at Macon. And
let us then and there inaugurate a system
of labor which shall regain our lost j roa

Tbe redemption of Gts.rgia from
poverty, now upon her; the improve
meut of her lauds; tin* development of all
her great ami varied resources, is the
work to be accomplished. It eau be done.
work must be a beginuing. This is
the objeet of the Convention at Macon
There is uoi labor enough w tho State to
accomplish a tithe of what may be done
with proper management. In addition to
all the labor wc now have, we need bu«-
dreds of thousands of skilled lab >rers
from abroad for 'his gr» at work. And.
in coujunctiou with this labor, we shall
need cajutal and ea pita lists; let us invite
them* urn, from the North and from
Kmopc, if the Cun\ entiou deem.- it. best to
do so. ! .
Be not lukewarm upon this **object, tor
this is tho golden opportunity to make a
beginning. No work eau bo half so im
portant for us or our children.

Let i’s be Wtse ik Tims..—There is
great danger of excesses on both sides.
The extracts given by the Commercial
from the 1/exington Observer and tire
Memphis A valanvke, are the cries of those
wc have pushed to the wall, and whom,
not having either wisdom or Vharity, wc
desire to force into the ditch beyoud
The Southern States cannot tolerate tbe
present state of things, nor anything like
it. Their people will die first If it
were our own condition, wc should prefer
death to Negro mastery of our society
and Government while our hands were
tied. But, if they were loose, we should
certainly try to inflict it. The outrage is
fiendish, and the submission to it is super
human. The Gar pet-baggers are the
iuhtt unionts by which Negro mastery ami
white slavery ;q;e to Ik; made the perma
nent condition of the splendid States of
the South—our near neighbor#, our best
friends and customers. The Garpet
baggers went South to create and estab
lish Mich a villainous state of things as no
Ohioan would allow on his own soil.
They wilh ke<q» it up, and, if they do, tboy
must be treated as we would treat torch
bearing tnonkeys in a powder magazine.
— Cufcinmt'i Commoner.
Soirntg&N Prodittion. Notwith
standing the many discouragements which
the South has had to .encounter since the
close of the Rebellion, such as the unset
tled state of social, industrial, and politi
cal a flairs, lack of rea<ly menus, and low
state of credit, it is gratifying to uote the
substantial progress which that section
has made, and is making, towards a
reparation of the losses afld wastes of
war. The Southern States have not only
become nearly, or quite* self-sustaining
in the matter of food, but their great
staples, of cotton, tobacco, rice, sugar, Ac ,
are increasing in volume at a rate which
bhls fair to enable them speedily to re
sume their legitimate position in the com
merce and industry of the country.
The South is peculiarly favored as regards
soil and climate, which are adapted, not
only to a very large production of the
reoiguiaed staples of that aoctiou* but to
most of the cereals, fruits, aud root crops
of the higher latitudes. This has been
abundantly demonstrated italic last year
or two, during which the Northern mar
kots have been liberally supplied with a
great variety offitrni aud warden produce,
which have yielded eveu uettcr returns to
the producers than cotton. Manufactures
have, also, made some progress, but
nothing like the headway which this
branch of industry is destined to nidge in
succeeding years, when a complete f /cili
catiou shall bring into requisition the
necessary auxiliary forces of capital and
labor. In addition to a fine soil aud'di
versified climate, the South possesses un
told wealth iu her mines of irou, lead,
copper, and sulphur, not to speak ot the
more precious metals, which will, without
doubt, be placed under tribute by unfail
ing energies, as soon as the preseut anoma
lous couditiou of social affairs shall give
place to law, order, and genera stability.
It is altogether probable that the healing
art of time will overcome the animosities
engendered by the war, and thus permit,
succeeding years, the unexampled progress
of material prosperity.— Shipping

CATHOLIC INTELLIGENCE.
The Cotholx- Mirror mf* that the
totftl numtxir of c.mtirmed and converts
in the Bioccse of Baltimore, during the
present year, 1868, so far, is as follow# ;
Total uamtbor continued, 4.ti-54; total
nnmlier of eooverts, 481. This is more
than 11 per cent, of the entire number.
Tables Turned —The Constitution
state# that on tho Island of \'alentia sixty
persons, many of whom are Vbung and
intelligent, have abandoned the Pro
testant Church to enter tbe Catholic fold.
Valemia is, we believe, one of the favored
spots which the Irish Church Missionary
Society takes under its especial care.
Prom tbe statement of our cotcmporaiy,
it would appear that, so far from making
converts, the zealous Missionaries have
succeeded in alienating the Protestant
population. —Cork Kramntvr.
ErisJorAt. Visj tatiox.—On his return
frotn Kentucky, the Most Reverend
Archbishop visited the Churches in the
Western portion of the Diocese in the
cyuntics of Alleghany aud Washington.
He administered the Sucrameut of Con
firmation in ten Churches to eleven hun
dred and. twenty five, persona, of whom
one hundred and five were converts to
onr Holy Faith. —Baltimore Mirror.
Catholic Missions in China.—We
(says the Hong Kong paper,) bave N been
endeavoring lo obtain some authentic
statistics of the missions of all denomina
tions. The following, respecting the
ltoaiau Catholic mission# lias been cour
teously communicated by good authority.
It i# the first compilation of the sort in
modern day#:
The whole of China has been divided
into twenty-four Catholic miasioua, di
rected by nineteen Bishops and five Pre
fects Apostolic of different nationalities,
viz., Italian, Frpcch, .Spanish, and Bel
gian. ! Each Biahop has under him sot
less than four European Missionaries, aud
some of them have upwards of twenty.
Each Mission is divided into so many
districts, according to the number of Eu
ropean Mission#. ... ri ‘
The number of Christians varies is
each Mission from two thousand, which
is the lowest number, up to ton thousand.
Colleges.—ln each Mission a College
for natives i# kept, where they are Uught
Latin, philosophy, and theology. There
are, also, schools aud orphanages, which
abound in every Mission, The most
important is the College kept by the Ger
mans aud Italian# at Si-ka*wA, distant
from Shaughuc three or f four njiles.
There are nearly three hundred pupils,
who are taught trades, painting’, draw
ing, and Chinese literature, and several
of them are sunt up to Pckiu to takoyhe
degrees.
Printing, —in several of the Missions
there ia a Printing Office, directed by the
Missionaries. That at Shnnghae is wor
thy of mention. Several works have
been composed and printed in Chinese,
among which may bo mentioned the Gos
pels, with explanatory notes (five edi
tions); works ou mathematics, theological
book#, which, as far as regards the
idioms, are kept as classics by the Chi
nese. Several parts of tbe Bible have
be.eu translated into Chinese, but always
with explanatory notes to adapt them to
the natives’ mental capacity, with a Dic
tionary in Latin and Mandarin. Anew
000 has been printed at Paris in Chinese
and French by a French Missionary-
Different maps of China arc printed at
Naples, in Italy, nnder the Italian Mi#-
sionary in tbe Chinese College; ajid »

Arkival or Capuchoi Father.- — Tho
Diocese of Charleston ha# been favored
within the past week,* by the arrival of
two Missionaries of the Capuchin Order,
from Europe. These Reverend ge»Ue
men arc known by thoir Religious name#
Father Louis, aud Father Patrick. This
is the first mission that the Capuchin
Fathers havej ever accepted South of
Mason and Dixon’s line, and we may
esteem ourselves fortunate that they are
thus about to make their beginning in

The Order of Capuchin- was formed
in the year 152 J, by Mathew do Bussi.
or Boschi, a native of the Duchy of Urbas

from the peculiar formation of the head
