Mexican Immigration.-Wc publish, this morning, an interesting letter from Capt. M. F. Maury, Imperial Commissioner of Immigra tion, in relation to Mexico, and the inducements held out to emigrants from the United States, especially from the South. It will be observed that Mexico is a good place for a man of means to invest capital; but the poor man stands but a very slim chance to make a living, especially so if he purposes to work for from twenty-live to fifty cents a day and find himself out of this small pittance. We are not among those who believe that Mexico is the El Dorado which it is pictured to be by some of our enthusiastic countrymen, and we had much rather sec the tide of immigration flowing in this direction than in the direction of Mexico. Let our peo ple exercise patience and rather “ suffer the ills that are Ilian tty to others they know not of.” The soil and climate of this country is as pro ductive and healthy as those of Mexico, and when the acrimony and prejudice which now exists wear away, and civil government is re stored throughout the South, we are firmly con vinced that the Constitution and Union framed and organized by our fathers will he more in consonance with the views of our people than the Imperial mandates of a Napoleon or Max uailiau. For ourselves we are opposed in toto to the various schemes of emigration which are now being agitated in the South, because they appear to us premature and in some respects delusive. The true policy is to stand by our country—we mean the South—in the future as in the past, and not to desert her now when pros trated from the effects of the terrible ordeal through which she has passed. To desert her in this condition would not only be in the high est degree unwise but unmanly. The Steamers Jas. Christopher and It. H. ViAV. In calling the attention of consignees and others interested to the advertisements of Mr. Joseph Kindi ley, agent of the steamers Jas. ■Christopher and It. H. May, into of the line between Savannah arid this city, the Herald .-ays, it will be siren that the wreck of the Chris topher is offered for sale, anti that persons hay- ; ing claims against both steamers are notified to present them to Mr. Kinehley for settlement. In this connection our Savannah cotouiporary • 'liras speaks of the services of the company and j pays a deserved compliment to the onterprize j '"id business capacity of our citizens: “The ! ‘Christopher and May have both been burned' within a few weeks past, causing a loss to the ‘ c ompany of some 30,000. This loss falls heavily ■ upon a company that has contributed its full j share of capital and onterprize in supplying the j means of transit between this city and Augusta j during the intermission of our railroad com munication. Under the management of Mr. Kinehley, the gentlemanly and accommodating agent, the line gave the fullest satisfaction to the business public. We hope soon to see Mr. K. in charge oi another line of river steamers, and that better fortune may attend them.” C<iL. O’Brien.— Tho Memphis Bulletin, of ilie 9ib, gets ot) the following on onr friend O’Brien, one of the indispensable fixtures of that important institution known as the South ern Express Company. We are afraid that onr friend of the Bulletin Ims had dust thrown in his eyes by the gentleman in question, as he has j hern married too long to talk about; and we j request, in justieo to his eharming wife and i < hildren, that, this erroneous statement will he corrected, as it is calculated to deceive the young ladies of Memphis: Personal.— Our office was enlivened yester day by the cheerful presence of Colonel Mike O’Brien, the activo and energetic officer and ornament of that great institution, tho Southern hxprese Company. It gives us pleasure to in form his admirers, especially his lady friends, that he is yet unmarried. We make this state ment in justice to the gentleman, and to correct a rumor which has been circulated to the con trary. Death of an Old Citizen.— Mr. E. J. Bnekmastcr, an old and respected citizen, died f t ids residence in this city Monday morning. For years he had been a patient sufferer from paralysis, and his death was neithor sudden nor unexpected, as he had been gradually sinking from the effects of his affliction. As a father, husband and citizen, he faithfully discharged his duties both to his family and his fellow citizen. As a merchant, strict integrity and assiduous At tention to husiness were his promi nent traits, a»d as a Christian, he followed the precepts of the Redeemer in “doing unto others ns he. would wish others to do unto him.” I)E> Bow’s Review.— The March number of this ever-welcomo and enterprising monthly Ims been sent us by the publishers. Like all its predecessors it i* full of information, tho quali ty of which is not equaled by any Review in the country. We are pleased tg observe that nearly all the prominent articles aho .contributed by Southern men. We may have occasion to refer to it more in detail, as a careful persusal generally eliminates some striking doctrine suit able tor public re-production. Meanwhile, all who can do *p, should send a subscription to 16. F. De Bow, 40 Broadway, New York. Dry Goods, not Grocerim* —ln our re port of the robbiug of Mr. O. C. Drake's etffrg, yesterday morning, we were made to say that }se haul received a new stock of groceries, etc., but we have a very distinct rocolleetion of writ ing goods, which was manipulated into groce ries by a frock of tho types, for which we hold ourselves in no way responsible. As Mr. Drake has no desire to change his business, we hope our readers will not be by tho mistake, and call on him for gin and sugar. He doesn’t deal in the articles. The Late Mr. Caldwell.— We regret that in our notice of the death of Mr. Caldwell, the statement appeared that ho was under the in fluence of liquor at the time, as we are assured by some of his friends that he had been labor ing for weeks previous to his death under a temporary aberration of the mind. We are re quested to state that a reward of !fSO will be paid to any person who recovers his remains. Spring Clothing.— l. SimOn & Co. inform the public that “cotton at the present prices is the cheapest article in America,” which means that they have received a full supply of spring goods, which will be sold low for cash. Attention! Ladies.— Madame Fillette an nounces at her popular establishment, 218 Broad-street, a “grand opening of Millinery and Fancy Goods, on Thursday morning,” at which the ladies Os Augusta and vicinity are invited to be present. River News.— The steamer Eclipse arrived from Savannah yesterday. The steamer General Berry left for Savannah yesterday. River, six feet at the bridge yesterday. A joke is current in New York at the expense of Mr. Henry J. Raymond. Mr. Ganson, and an ex-member of Congress, from the Buffalo dis trict, the other day introduced Mr. Raymond to ex-Governor Parker, of New Jersey, who is, teas everybody knows, a pro-slavery Democrat, ■ih,” says Judge P., ‘l’m very glad to make ■ Raymond's acquaintance. I take the Times, He I like to see both sides.” “Yes," says “ami you got both sides in the Times."

New York, March 8. We are suffering from the most afflictive spell of weather that can be imagined or de scribed. We have a high March wind, driving the dust of the streets before it with great fury. The “oldestinhabitants ” declare that they have never seen anything to equal it. Besides the high wind it is intensely cold ; and no more un comfortable weather has been enperienced the past winter, without taking the blinding dust into the account. It is attended by a severe ' mortality by those afflicted with lung or bron chial affections, and several deaths have occur red by conjestion of lungs, brought on by se vere and sudden colds. These discomforts and mortality and mainly duo to the neglect of the contractors to clean the streets. But no one thinks of an effort at redress, and it is quite likely we shall have a moderate desert of Sahara with us for a week or two longer, or uutil a heavy rain shall work the dirt into the sewers. TRICHINA. The publications that have been made respect ing the presence of a parasite called “ trichina,” in “hog products” that have not been suffi ciently cooked, has nearly produced a panic in the pork market, and lias led to some advance in the prices of neat cattle. Tho consumption of pork in our city and suburban markets has fallen oil'fully one-half; prices have materially declined, although very few hogs have come to market. I allude to the matter here to aid in pre venting the panic on the subject from spread ing. Never were the hogs fattened on better corn titan during the past season, and never were they more free from all disease. All anlj inal food should be properly cooked; half cook ed food, whether animal or vegetable, is un healthy. The authenticated cases of trichina do not number half a dozen throughout Europe or America; not oue in a thousand as compared . with the use of improper vegetable food, and yet wc have a great hue and cry against swine’s flesh as food for a man. Sensible peopltf will not listen to it. THE RADIOAI.S ANI) THE REGULAR ARMY. The conservative character of the officers of the regular army, and their unwillingness to continue in positions of restraint upon the lib erties of any portion of their countrymen, have brought down upon them the wrath of the Rad icals; and Senator Wilson proposes to counter balance their possible influence upon the future, j by compelling them to receive, as equals, sun dry shoemakers, counter-jumpers and epaulet tod nobodies. In reorganizing the army, vol unteer officers will rank equally well with reg ulars in the order of promotion. Thus, one who was a militia captain a few years ago, may claim and receive equal rank with a veteran general like Cnnhy. SPRING ELECTIONS. There have been a number of city elections in this State, and the results are of a character to establish a statement that I have hereto fore made in this correspondence, namely, that the active and ill-educated wealth among (he people, (which is generally Radical,) is growing so strong as to somewhat overawe the lower classes (who generally have a good idea of practical statesmanship.) This strengthens the Radicals in the cities ; and in the larger cities which have recently held elections, the Radicals have gained. In the rural townships they have as uniformity lost. The domination ofgrasping wealth over the producing classes is the first born of a protective tariff. Perhaps in tlic manufacturing districts, flic average of people have a little more money than in the agricultu ral districts, but nowhere in the United States, “so-called,” will there be found deeper moral degradation than in New England. That any considerable portion of her population can lie driven to the polls like sheep to the shambles, will lie accepted as sufficient evidence on this point. BUSINESS MATTERS. We have some excitement respecting the state,of private credits, under the recent heavy decline in leading staples and great, dullness of trade. Several failures arc reported, and the clerks of the mercantile agencies are busy from morning nil late at night, on the very interest ing personal topics which come under their cognizance. The decline in goods can hardly be appreci ated. A line of Saxony dress goods, which cost 65 cents to import, sold out at auction at 35 cents; and I hear of even greater sacrifices being made. Cotton goods have further declined. • Cotton is two to three cents lower than last Monday, and very unsettled. In fact, every leading staple, except flour and wheat, has de clined, with very dull sale. The advance iu five-twenties to 119 1-2 in the London market is regarded as promising such further advance, (say to SO,) as will put gold here to 120. The Liverpool market for cotton showed some little weakness for the week ending February 14th, under the advices from this side, but as those were quite temporary in their char acter, a reaction is looked; for and yet, although the Liverpool gold price shall bo sustained, the currency price here, depends much upon gold and exchange, which have now an unfavorable tendency. Willoughby. Financial and Commercial. London Money Market, Feb. 24.—Tile weekly returns of the Bank of England show an in crease in the bullion of £520,821 sterling; and under the influence thereof the rate of discount on the 20th was reduced from 8 to 7 per cent.— There was a good demand for money at the re duction.

Liverpool Markets — Feb. 24.— Cotton. —The Brokers’ Circular says : The demand for cot ton has been to a fair extent throughout the week, but has been freely met by holders, and under the influence of advices from America of increased receipts and a fall in prices some de cline lias been submitted to from last week’s quotations, but the reduction of the Bank rate to seven per cent, lias tended to promote a steadier feeling at the close of the market. American has continued in general demand, and in the early part of the week commanded extreme rates, but during the last two days has receded and closes about l-2d. below former quotations.

Doo eat Dog. —Yesterday morning, whilst good folks were quietly wending their way churchward, we saw, in Meeting street, near Hosel, a file of black guards, marching along with steady tramp, having under arrest four equally black men, who were* and who were not, blackguards. We spoke not, but passed on, and thought loudly, and the burden of our thoughts was the poetic idea—dog eat dog. .■, . ..... {Charleston News. ■I the London Times. WFne Practical Results of Nejro Emanci patiou. - The sorrows entailed by a single' sin’were never more strikingly displayed than in the has? of negro slavery. Emancipation, which -. should be the final expression of repentance » and the closing act of redress, Is, only the first link in a chain of increasing .difficulties. The Americans art already finding this out, and it ’ must lie poor encouragement to them to ob t serve the actual condition to which thirty years of a similar trial hate brought Jamaica.' The abolition of slavery in any country opens a new question, which, Wc may say without exaggera * tion, has never yet yet been solved at all.' No experience has shown us how' to • conduct a . population of liberated blacks to a good social or political position. . In Hayti we see the- end of negro independence; in Jamaica of negro liberty. The natural desire of all Abolitionists is to convert the slave into a free laborer—the equal, iu that respect, of a white man. But the emancipated slave, partly from a natural revul sion of feeling, arid partly front the ineradica ble instincts of race, has no disposition to be ., come a laborer at all. He is incapable of ap preciating a condition of freedom which leaves him under as much necessity to work as before. The question has uniformly been urgued on the assumption that as free labor cheerfully given is more productive than forced work, the services of the blacks, in their new capaci ty of freedom, would actually be more val uable than before, so that no derangement of industrial interests could follow upon emancipation. This would lie true enough if the negro resembled the European in ljis wants or his disposition; but there is no such analogy between the two. One volunteer is worth two pressed men, no doubt; but the black, when he ceases to be a pressed man, does not become a volunteer. He will work for nothing but the necessary satisfaction of his bodily wants, and as these wants are on the smallest possible scale it follows that of his own free will he will hardly work at all. We have seen the problem brought to its practical end in Jamaica step by step. When the slaves were first emancipated provisions were enacted for substituting certain organizations of labor in the place of slavery, but the negroes rebelled against this species of compulsion, their white patrons applauded their conduct, and appren ticeship, in all its successive forms, was ulti mately abolished also, as mere “slavery in dis guise.” From that time the blacks were left to work or play, exactly like white laborers, and the result was that they were good for nothing at all. It was only by the importation of work men from foreign countries that the cultivation of the soil could be continued, and it was only continued, in point of fact, to a very small ex tent. With the exception of a few plantations oil the seashore the estates went out of cultiva tion altogether. A result which in our econo mical discussions at home is only speculatively contemplated as the effect of a final rupture be tween capital and labor did, in Jamaica, actually occur. Agriculture was given np altogether. The o wners or occupiers of estates actually found that a most productive soil in one of the finest climates in the world would not repay the cost of fanning on the terms of black labor, and they showed the reality of their conclusions in the most practical way.— They let their land go to waste, and the proper ty and produce of the soil were lost together.— Jamaica, at this minute, imports food for its population, though it is rich enough and fertile enough to support five times that population from its own products. In America we seem to see tho first step ta ken in a similar career of difficulty and misfor tune. Emancipation has come, and is a reality. Nobody, even in New England, has any sus picion that the people of the South so much as dream of the re-establishment of personal sla very. But the people of the North are not con tent with this. An active party among fhem is already clamoring for additional securities on the negro’s behalf. They are providing, by an ticipation, against “slavery in disguise,” though they cannot tell how to Set about the work.— On the other hand, the officers on the spot, who have got the blacks under their personal ob servation, and can discern the nature of the emergency, are proceeding' very much in the fashion of the Jamaica Legislature in times past. The Freedmen’s Bureau—that is to say, the hoard charged especially with the protection of the negro—has issued orders, in the case of Georgia, that the negroes, when sufficient wages are offered, shall make contracts for labor, and it undertakes to insure the execution of these contracts, when duly made, by compelling the blacks, if necessary, to perform their word.— This is the apprentice system, or, rather, it is something far more like actual slavery. If these orders, which are to be adopted in all the Slates of the South, are correctly described, the American negro,, though he can no longer be bought and sold outright, will still lie held to “ involuntary servitude. ” If any Southern planter by virtue of tendering what in the eyes of a magistrate may appear a sufficient sum of money is to be enabled to carry ott any num ber of blacks to his estate, there to work wheth er they will or not, the “disguise” of slavery will be very thin indeed. In Jamaica our colo nists were not even permitted to make con tracts for labor with black volunteers, or to bind a negro to continuous work by the terms of an ordinary apprenticeship. The patrons of I the blacks prescribed every element of coercion j except that arising from the wants ot the body —a stimulus which, in the case before them, had no existence at all. We may expect with some confidence that the New Englanders will protest against this official decree, but what is to be the alternative ? With out coercion in some form or other the negro will do no regular work. If hoSn but squat and sleep, and still keep body and soul togeth er, that will he his course. At present he Can not quite do so, hut lie is assisted for the mo ment by daily rations of food doled out to him by the State. This, however, cannot last, nor is it very probable that the blacks will be allow ed in America the peculiar advantage which fell to their lot in Jamaica. In that island the en franchised negro got a direct benefit from his own indolence. When the cultivation of the soil was given up as hopeless for want of labor, and land was allowed to run to waste, the negro re-entered upon the deserted plantation to squat < aud vegetate. The wreck and ruin actually told in his lavor, and re-produced a natural wilder ness for the use of his savage nature. But we do not think the Americans will permit the re enactment of such scenes in tlieir country— they cannot afford to lose seven fine States of the Union as Jamaica was lost to us. These States must do tlieir natural duty in raising pro duce, paying taxes, and maintuiuing an indus trious population in decent order. Jamaica , told for little in our modern system. It was not much to us that a few colonists were ruined or that we got our sugar from Spanish instead of ■ British plantations,but it is very different with the 1 Americans and the Southern States. A section ! of the extreme Radical party is, indeed, pre pared to legislate in away which would make , Virginia or Georgia as like Jamaica as possible. I These rabid politicians arc ready to confiscate 1 the estates of their Southern fellow-citizenslas : a punishment for their recent rebellion, and then , to parcel out the land in small allotments to the ‘ liberated blacks. That would end, no doubt, in a very accurate reproduction of the fortunes and fate of Jamaica, but we have not the least belief that the Americans will ever endure such a sacrifice. They will reject this alternative, but they can do so only on condition of embracing that from which our own colonists were rigor ously debarred. Under some system or other they must exact involuntary labor from the ne gro. Possibly, the actual necessities of life may in those countries put that stress upon the blacks which they escaped in Jamaica, and com pel them to work for tlieir bread ; but it is more probable that some regular organization of ne gro labor will be substituted for slavery in spite of the reclamations of New England. The Government of Washington will hardly consi der it a desirable tiling to lose the whole use of the South for the next thirty years, and at the end of that time to find another disruption of society and an outbreak of blacks as the fruits of its humanity and forbearance. It has hceii announced by leading members of the Reconstruction Committee that the Su preme Court will soon deliver an opinion de claring that the test oath is unconstitutional, it is said that this announcement caused great consternation in the Radical ranks. The Lexington Gazette denies the statement that General Lee visited Arlington during his recent trip to Washington, .or that he purchased pictures of Grant and Lincoln while in that city. The Norfolk Day-Book says that on Wednes day last, in the short space of twelve hours, three new born white babes were found in that city, two of them evidently murdered by tlie\r inhuman mothers. A curious incident occurred the other day in one of the restaurants of Philadelphia. A rough but shrewd looking countryman seated himself at a table, and having inspected the bill of fare, called for a piece of Forney.” The waiter, who was a black of more than ordinary intelligence, disappeared grinning, and return ed in a moment with a slice of cold duck. Dr. Beckwith, of Smithfleld, N. C., was acci dentally shot and killed at Swift Creek, last week by a Mr. Colbert. The Chicago Times declares it to he the solemn duty of the President to arrest Stevens, Phillips and Sumner on a charge of treason. We learn from a Nashville dispatch, to the Cincinnati Enquirer, that Gen. B. F. Cheatham was married on Thursday laijt to Miss Robert son, a wealthy lady of Davidson county. Mrs. Lydia Maria Child—Who has so much concern for Africans—calls European* who come to this country to enrich it by their skill, experience, labor, wealth, as.the outpourings of almshouses and penitentiaries. A card appears in the National Intelligencer of Tuesday, from the late steward, Mr. Stack pole, in which he states that.whatever articles of furniture are missing from the White House must have been taken either after or before his appointment. The Empress Eugenie and the ladies of her court are said to have definitely foresworn hoops. Gav. Patton came within an aee of being shot the other day by the accidental discharge of a musket, in a car of the Mobile and Ohio rail road. Hon. Simeon Oliver, for many years State Senator from De Soto, Mississippi, died at his residence, near Hernando, on the 26th ult., aged sixty-nine years. From a Memphis special to the Louisville Courier, we learn that The case of Gen. N. B. Forres}, was called up in the United States Court on the 7th. His counsel asked for a con tinuance on the ground that Gen. Forrest is dow sick with the small-pox. Granted. Dr. Wayne, a prominent druggist, of Phila delphia, died there on the sth instant, BY. TELEGRAPH. ASSOCIATED PREBB DISPATCHES. CON QRESSIOH AL Washington, 'March 12,1866. In the * Senate, Mr. Sherman presented a pe tition from citizens of Columbia, South Caro lina, asking indemnity for loss sustained by the destruction of certain houses by Sherman’s army. The Senator read a letter from General Sherman ajleging that Columbia was not fired by Federal authority, but by order of General Wade Hampton. General Sherman states that the town was on fire when he entered. The petition was re ferred to the Committee on Claims. •The bill to admit Colorado as a State was discussed. Senator Sherman opposed the bill because of no provision in the Constitution al lowing negro suffrage. The House would not permit the introduc tion of a resolution declaring the inexpediency of any scheme looking to the guarantee, by Government, of any Mexican-or Fenian loan. The reciprocity bill was discussed. Washington, March 13. The Senate refused to jpass the bill for the admission of Colorado. ( The House, by a vote of one hundred and nine against thirty-uiuo, passed the Senate bill delaring all persons, white and black, who have been in the United Btates military service to be citizens of the United States, and to protect them iu their civil rights, and furnish the menus for its vindication. Ndthing in the bill to be construed so as to affect the laws of any State concerning the right of suffrage. FROM WASHINGTON. * Washington, March 12. Advices from Toronto, Canada, state that the number of volunteers called for by the Govern ment largely exceeds the demand. An official military order has been published, denouncing the contemplated Fenian raid, and relying upon the success of volunteers, in case of an attack. Washington, March 13. Weeks ago, a British delegation from the British provinces visited Washington with a view to continue the reciprocity made between the United States and British Provinces. A bill was reported for this purpose, and after several days discussion, the House last night rejected it. Thus the foreigh tariff act will now apply to the Britisli provinces. FROM MOBILE. Mobile, March 13. At the municipal election in New Orleans John T. Monroe was elected by three hundred majority. The national Democratic ticket almost ' entire, was successful. Judge Kellogg, collector of custom*, has uews that the Government authorities at Wash ington have dismissed all persons engaged in the seizure of property in tho South claimed as belonging to the Confederate States ; all cotton now seized to be held till a full examination be had. GEORGIA LEGISLATURE. * Mti.r.KDGEvn.LE, March 13. Governor Jenkins has vetoed .the homestead bill, and the bill allowing land sold under exe cution to be redeemed in two years. The Senate passed both bills over his veto.— The House refused to pass either, ' / B«th houses adjourned at twelve o’clock at noon to-day. NEW YORK COTTON AND GOLD MARKET. New Yokk, March 13. The cotton market is firm, with an advance of one cent. Sales eighteen hundred bales, at forty-one to forty-two cents. Gold thirty and a half. New York, March 13.
