I enter tho Hold of journalism with a determination neither to indulge In offensive personal allusions, nor to encourage that bnuo of journalism— a war of epithets.

Emigration fell off last year, says tho New York Herald,, fifty percent. Tho value of an emigrant to the country has been estimated to be equal to AGU), This deficit in the matter of emigration is duo more to tho restrictions imposed by foreign governments, and tho inducements offered by the Imperial government of Oerinauy to keep its subjects at home, than to the depression of busi ness in this oountry. Both causes ojierate as important facts, however, to bring about this rosult. The Her ald thinks the i>olicy adopted by the Mormons, who go to England or Wales and bring their proselytes di rectly to Utah, Is the best plan. In tho near future the question of secur ing foreign immigrants is destined to booomo one of great Importance to tho Southern States. We hope that the efforts of Com missioner Janos, and especially of tho State Oeoligist., will soon give to the world a hand-book that will show clearly tho vurted resources of Geor gia. The rosults thus far prove that, generally, negro labor has not proved profitable. The thriftless habits of tho negro will cause that race to decroaso in relative numbers, rather than increase. The human race, under fair treatment, will double itself every twenty-five years. A cureful census will determine an nually whether they are decreasing by koeplng In view that standard. Wo believo that they uro gradually decreasing, while up to the beginning of tho war their increase was only equaled by that of the seventy Jews who went down into Egypt, and when they came out after 800 years, num bered s.eoii.uoe. Itmtlrul* Dlxaitn-rliiK In soutli Corn* linn. When Georgia was under the des potism of Bullock & Cos., and tho hope of liberty had almost vanished, a light spread over the State when tho Radicals begun to fall out among themselves on account of the division of the plunder. Wo predict the same state of affairs in South Carolina. For ten years that State has been run and lluuily ruined by Radical pirates from the North and the mean- negroes at home. No respectable man bus been ablo to got an office, or have a voice in the affuirs of his State. They have bled tho people in the way of levying ouorous taxes, until, in many in stances, tho property would not bring the amount of taxes assessed against It. At last they have a row in camp, and we hope and trust the Democrats will thereby bo enabled to step into power. Tho Governor of the State is a New Englander, carried into office by the Radicals and negroes, and now ho has made his followers mad, because he vetoed a party measure. The negroes swear he has gone back on them and the party, and propose to withdraw their sup port. Tho white negroes side with the Governor; hence tho split prom ises to bo no ordinary one. The affair is so bitter that tho editor of tho Gov ernor’s organ has been arrested for contempt, he having alluded in his journal to tho honorable members by tho opprobrious title of “show ani mals.” The negroes in Charleston held a grand indignation meeting to protest against t he outrage upon their rights. While in session they abused tho Congress for refusing a seat to tho chumplon of their race', “Pinch.” They may hold as many meetings as they see proper, und become as in dignant os “Pinch” himself was, but they will never get into office when a white Radical desires tho place. If tho South Carolina negroes will learn this lesson ns readily as the Georgia uegroes have, they may expect to get along as they do in Georgia. Another election, and South Carolina will be as free of that party, as is Georgia now. Ben Milnek, Esq., says that just before the war tho “dry storm” pass ed over tho State, taking the very track that that other old “cuss,” Gen. Sherman, took. Mr. Milner's Idea Is that the recent tornado went through a part of the black belt, and he is of tho opinion that it is the forerunner of tho war of races. No one can tell what the next decade will bring forth. The Washington Chronicle pretends to believe that there is much proba bility of Jefferson Davis being made the Democratic candidate for the Presidency in 187 G. The only capital now left to the Radical party is cold blooded lying, and the Chronicle evi dently Intends to dcal iu its full share of that stock. Newspaper Slanders and Mbhdbb.— Dr. Franklin once romarkod that the liberty of the press ought to bo ac companied by the liborty of tho cudgel. A coftßEs pondent , writing from tho West, says that tho prairio hen, which is very useful in destroying tho grass hoppers, is becoming very scarce In consequence of tho largo numbers annually killed for Eastern markets and for Europe. General Spinner, for upwards of fourteen years Treasurer of tho United States, has tendered his resignation of that office, to take effect July 1. lie will be succeeded by Mr. John C. New, cashier of tho First National Bank of Indianapolis. The only “damage” which female character at tho North oven seems to sustain is that rendered by a jury in so much money. When that verdict Is rendered, the whole household seem happy, regardless of oonsoquon ces. In Wisconsin, every woman of the age of twenty-one and upwards may be elected to tho office of director, treasurer, and clerk of school dis tricts; director and sectetury of town boards, under the township system of school government; member of u Board of Education in cities, and county superintendent of schools. T. J. Miixiken, one of tho wealthiest merchants in Sacramento, married for his second wife a beautiful oetn roon. He died and she claimed her interest in his property. His children by his first wife disputed her claim, and the Courts have decided the mar riage illegal, on the ground that the laws of California prohibits “all mar riages between white persons and no groes, or inulatoes to bo illegal and void.” The evidence showed she bad been received in first-class society, and was nearly white. Pin cniJACK, who has been vaga mondizlng around Washington ail tho winter, and trying to slip into the Senate, returned to New Orleans und was given a large reception by his friends. Many carpet baggers were present, and as lie entered tho rooms the band played “Hail to the Chief.” Pinch spoke at great length, ami said he did not intend to give up his chances for glory, but would persevere until lie was seated. Tlie chances are that he will take it out in persevering. —• ♦ . Mrs. Margaret Lamarind has filed a petition In the Common Pleas Court at Louisville, Ky., in a suit against Daniel Boone Lodge, Knights of Pythias, claiming $50,000 for tho alleged death of her husbund. In her petition the plaintiff states that on the 25th of March, 1874, her husband was initiated in tho Daniel Boone Lodge, and during the initiatory cer emonies received injuries which re sulted in his death on tho Ist of April the same year. For the defence it is claimed that there is nothing in the initiatory services of the Knights of Pythias by which injuries could have been inflicted as claimed, and it is further alleged that Mrs. Lumarhid Is of unsound mind. ♦ —- Ex-President Davis, who is on a visit to New Orleans, sent the follow ing telegram to a meeting held in Memphis, Tenn., to express regret at the dentil of John Mitehel, the Irish patriot: “Unable to be with you, I send my heartfelt sympathy in your proposed tribute to the patriot and devotee of liberty, John Mitehel. Together we struggled for State rights, for the su premacy of tho constitution, for com munity independence; and, after de feat, were imprisoned together. As my friend, I mourn for him, and re gret his death as a loss to mankind.” The Ameriean Minister at Vienna, John Jay, has cheated his landlady out of the rent to which she was justly entitled. Ho has scandalized and disgraced the United States at tho Court of the Empire at Austria. All of Grant’s Foreign Ministers seem to possess that faculty to the greatest extent. In this connection we pub lish the following from a letter to tho New York Nation from London : “Every honest American in England runs the risk, every time that he dines with a party of Englishmen, of being made to blush by ail allusion to the Emma Mine or Gen. Sehenok, and ho must blush in silence, for there is not one word that can be said in mitigation of the disgrace; whenever he takes up a morning pa per, he may see that some beggared victim of Grant and Schenek lias in stituted a criminal action against the American Minister for complicity in a swindle, which but for his name might never had been 11 successful one; that lie can not go to his Minis ter’s receptions with self-respect, or, if ho went, meet there an Englishman who has any.” (Jraut. Abuse of Grant in certain quarters only strengthens him: while an at tack upon the veritable usurpations of tho Radical party can do Democ racy no harm. To which we may add that when this mysterious man does something commendable he deserves to be praised for it. In the nomination of Pardee, he exhibited good sense and patriotism, not to speak of friendship for Louisiana. The men who reject ed this nomination are tiie true arch itects of ruin, and a great deal worse than President Grant,— Augusta Con stitutionalist. “Pardee was irreproachable, and therefore not the proper instrument for tho persecution of the South and for that corruption upon which the Radical party subsists. So ho had to die.” “Gen. Grant is erratic. He does some strange tilings, and now and thou a good thing. To us he is a mystery, He certainly ought to be allowed to do a good thing when he has a mind to. But that relentless and ruthless Republican party, which never deviates into justice ami hu manity, would not permitthis. Rich mond Dispaloh.
