The Press of Georgia Request! and to C<q>y th,s A(i</r<u and Keep the BuLJcet be fore the People The undersigned were appointed a committee at a meeting of the Agricul turist#, held in tho city of Eatonton, Georgia, at the lito Agricultural Fair in Putnam county, to addres- you on the subject of immigration, and to ark your co-operation It was agreed to bold a meeting in the City llall, at 10 o’clock, A M., on Wednesday, the 9 h day ot December, ensuing, composed of one delegate, at least, from each eouoty 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 od the best tcrms j for the improvement and dt v lopment o all the varied interests of Georgia and Georgians. Touohing the immediate subject of immigration, the committee deem it bcstjnot to propose any plan of action in this address, but to leave the whole question to the Convention —and wo simply urge a full attendance at the Convention. This, People of Georgia, is no small work, nor is it n Utopian id a. And now is the time for the work to begin. It has already been delayed too long, and if deferred still will only eud in greater injury. Farmers of Georgia! tho burden rests mainly on your shou’ders. Others are to be benefited in a c rresp nding ratio—but it devilvis mainly upon you to “put the bail in motion.” Cos oper ation 13 wbat we need. This is to be effected by full and free discussion of the whole question. This can be had at Macon at the tiino specified. We cordially invite you, therefore, ‘Farmers of every county in Georgia,’ to (.ppoin* one or more Delegates to represent your interests in the Convention at Macon, and to aid in tho work. Wo must not wait. There is too much danger in de lay. Too much sacr.fice in postpone ment. Send the best men you can get, and let the good work commence. It will tako months to accomplish the first step in the enterprise. It is all impor tant to begin right. One false step may be incalculable mischief. Our present labor, from the signs of the times, will in a few years more, be almost worth less. It is not the sort of labor we need now. It is inadequate, unskilled and unreliable, and becoming more so every year. Maryland is awake ! Virginia is arousing! Missouri, Texas and Arkan sas, are all moving ! Georgians 1 we, too, must begin, if we would save our good old State, ourselves and our chil dren from abject poverty. Oar invita tion is earnest—the cii is is near; the results certain and glorious, it we begin right, begin in lime, and act through out with wisdom. I.et us have r prex sentatives from every county, at Macuu. And let us then and there inaugurate a Bystem of labor which shall regain our lost prosperity. It, and it alone, will be our salvation. The redemption of Georgia from pov erty, now upon her, the improvement of her lands, the development of all her great and varied resources, iu the work to be accomplished. It can be done.— This work must he a beginning. This is the object of the Convention at Ma con. There is not labor enough in the Btate to accomplish a ti.he of what may be done with proper management. In addition to all the labor we new have, we need hundreds of thousands of ekilled laborers from abroad for this great work. And in conjunction with this labor wo shall need capital and cap it ali sis; let us invito them, too, from the North ami from Europe, if the Conven tion deems it best to do ho. Be not lukewarm upon this subject, for this ia the goldeu opportunity to make a beginning. No work ean be half so important for us or our children. B. T. Harris, of Ilanoock, 11. D.
