Ministerial Support.
| am, sir, your obedieut servant,
WILLIAM II. SEWARD

We are the advocate Of paying ministers oI all
denominations fair salaries for their services Prog-
Oct they give their whole time to the cause If they
do not, have nothing to say in their behalf. The
pastor Of Church should be a man of on work.
But it Is notorious that the Inadequate pay Of many
drives them to engage in other calings and divid-
ing their time and labors, all kinds of business suC
fer in their hands.
The Methodist Advocate published at Cincinnati,
estimates the salaries in that Conference is the ay
arage receipts Of the Conference show, AT say 500
The New York Evangelist says the average amount
paid to the ministers of the United Presbyterian
Clutches, is S67S; in the New School Presbyterian
Churches, $74S; the Old School Presbyterian
Churches $685. This Is a bad state Of affairs in the
Church. and when we look to Tennessee, It : worse
In Tennessee the Methodist ministers do not aya-
rage over $500 to men of families, and half that TO
single An intelligent Baptist informs US that
their ministers throughout the State no not average
more than 500, exclusive Of donations. Every
Church. ought, at once to raise the allowance Of her
ministers to higher figures, and then pay promptly
Think Of the high price Of produce, the high price
of goods and labor and the enormous cost of every
article of family use, and then think of a family
living on a few hundred dollars. It's disgraceru TO
the Church and membership, that allow it. and we
urge the people to inaugurate a different state of
tbinor-

The following letter, from Commissioner Cougar,
Of The Bureau of Immigration. Will be read with
interest. No subject Of greater Importance to the
prosperity Of the State has come before the Legis-
turo than taat Of immigration The suggestions of
the Letter are worthy Of attention.
DEPARTMENT OF STATE, BUREAJ OF INNuGA-N
TON, Washington, October %, 1865.
SIR-Your letter of the 2Ist instant, as also a
copy Of your message and circular descriptive Of
the State Of Tennessee, have been duly received at
this Office. Please accept my thanks for the infor-
nation they communicate.
It is gratifying to see that eNcrtions OF this Bu-
reaU towards the encouragement of immigration
into this country are being seconded by cores
pOHding interest in the Legislatures Of The several
States, and whilst this Bureau Is perfectly satisfied
that the patriotic spirit pervading the Legislature
of your State, viii be CXertd in favor Of the wse5t
measures to invite immigration into the State of
still deem it not uucalled for remark
that it would be well to consider In the legislation
on this subject that only by an authorized cO-ope
ration with this Office the desired end be reach
3D. in view of the fact that the existence Of the Blu
Teau OF Immigration Is now extensively known
abroad, and that from this circumstance, distru=t
would accompany any action which might not have
he direct sanction of the Federal Government.

The FGniaH Movement.

The "Fenian Brotherhood, an Irish organization
in America has publishodits constitution, assembled
its Congress, and issued its bonds, throwing them
into market. This is q Government ,riul1 q Cor
,,7,lacat Our Government is bound TO take notice
of this papable violation of ourneutraity laws cal
culatcd to involve us in Il war with England. Our
Neutrality Laws forbid any such hostile orgauiza-
ton, and our Government can do nothing less than
put it down at once. The language of the neutral
ity act is as follows
IF any person shall, within the territory or iu-
rsdicton Of the United States, begin or set on foot
or provide or prepare the means for, any military
expedition or enterprise to be carried from thence

States in the Middle and N-w England States
seeking information upon every conceivable point.
and proposing to settle in Tennessee. Some with
view to raise cotton-somc 10 raise grain and stock
and others TO manufacture. Many Of .lem rep
resent whole neighboEhoods who propose 10 come
il body, and purchase farming lands in small
Quantities. Some propose to start FIGURING Mills,
some IAlmber Mills others TO produce the grape
and soma one thing and some another. The senior
editor has answered them all in detail giving the
facts as they are, and inviting parties to come TO
Tennessee and examine the prospects for themselves
He has not failed to DO justice in all these letters

Garden spot Of the world, with a climate as balmy
As that Of Italy with water pure as perfection,

Suffrage in Missouri.
The colored citizens of Missouri have issued an
address to the people, in which they say:

The coored citizens of Missouri have issued an
address to the people, in which they say:
We are forced to pay taxes without representation
to submit without appeal to laws, however often
slYe, without single voice in framing them-to
bear arms without the right to say whether against
friend or foe, against loyalty or disoyalty. With
out suffrage we are forced in strict subsection to
government whose councils are to us foreign, and
are called by our own countrymen to witness VIC
fence upon the primary principle OF a republican
GOV eIHHent as gross and outrageous as That winch
stirred patriot Americans to throw overheard the tea
from Engllsh bottoms in q Boston hsrboT. and t.
wage the war for Independence
ASK not for social equality with the white man
as IS often claimed by the shallow demaGoguesi for
a law higher than human must forever govern So
cial relations
If wealth is to guard the portals of free suffrage
we ask that our requirements be respected and adj
mitted to equal representation.
II intelligence shall prescribe the limits we ask
Tor an impartial discrimination which shall affect
white as well as black, and submit, that the entire
Ignorance and stupidity of the people should not by
any presumption be wholly charged to the account
of ourselves.
To such universal test of intelligence we are
willing to submit our claims to suffrage, ard believe
that It would promote a most healthy spirit Of EMU
latIon and prove the greatest educator OF the
masses.
Our asserted ignorance Is not 8 condition from
choice or disposition as is now everywhere made
evident in the Jealous efforts of our people TO ed-
cate themselves and their children but arises from
the black code legislation Of illiterate ranchised
masters.
We ask that colored loyalty, industry and intcll-
5ence shall receive as full rights, guarantees and
privileges as those accorded to white treason, AFRO
gance and Incidence.

| Dig Dear Sir:
Ohe immediately important thing TO be
uoIo = INC nc occupation of the forts and arse
mas III Flofiua. The naval station and
10rtS at fensacoia are first in consequence
FOR thls IoFCe Is necessary. | have con-
vcrsed with Mr.. loombs upon the subject
He will start this week for GEORGIA and
says if the Convention on Governor will
ask Governor Brown. Of Georgia E,. a
force, he will Immediately send an efficient
force and take the Navy Yard and Forts
The occupation Of the Navy Yard will
give Us 4 good supply of ordnance and
make the capture of the fort easier. Major
Chase built the forts. and Will know all
about them Lose no time, for my opinion
Is troops will be very soon dispatched to
reinforce and strengthen the forts in FlOri-
d. The arsenal at Chattahoochie should
be looked to, and that at once, to prevent
the removal of arms
l think by the Ith OF March all the
Southern States will be ont, except. perhaps
Kentucky and Missouri aad they viii soon
have to follow.
What Is advisable Is the earliest possible
organization OF q Southern Contedcracv.
and Of a Southern army. The North is
rapidly consolidating against us upon the
plan of force. 4 strong government, as
eight States viii make promptly organized
and Il strong army with JEFF. Davis for
GcncraI-in-C Chief will bring them TO re
alizing sense OF the gravity OF the crisis
Have q Southern Government as soon J>
possible, adopting the present Federal Con
stituti0n for The time, and q Southern
army. repeat this because IT IS the i'm
portant policy.
Virginia and Maryland and Tennessee
arc rapidly coming up to The work. God
speed you.
l shall give the enemy u shot next week
before retiring. I say l.lnyf Yes. | am
theirs, and they are mine.
/ am willing 10 be thcir masters but not
their brothers.
Yours in haste,
