WHAT RETARDs IMMIGRATION FROM
THE NORTH TO THE SoUTH.-The Nash
willie Press has sensible article on the
reasons which hinder Northern farmers
from going South to add to that section,
as it says, more wealth, refinement. lux
ury and trade than all the large capt.
talists and spectators. These men, it
is argued want security, and will not
take their families into State dis
tracted by intestine feuds and violence,
or where the establishment of "black
codes. is but another name for the per-
petration of violence and disorder; for
their very design "local order estah-
lished and maintained by local author
ity"-is hostile to, and Incompatible
with, peace. THE intelligent know, u"
the Press says, "that the best guaranty
of peace is the equal and impartial IN
forcement of the law promptly, upon
all men, rich or poor, white, red or black.
The friends of freedom demand equal
legislation for four millions of colored
citizens, not because they have niger
on the BRAIN or any peculiar admira-
ton for the Niger, but because they be-
lieve that the peace ofsociety, in which is
bound up their own welfare, depends
upon making all men equal before the
law Let the South grant this, and
confidence and immigration will follow
and with them will surely come the I'M
precedented progress Of the South"

Sterling Price, having been defeated
by Gen, Candy on the Big Blue" near
Mobile towards the last Of August, re-
treated into Northern Arkansas, and
thence into Missouri, Gen, Rosecrans
then in Missouri, had superior force
"aud no doubt was entertained that he
would be able to check Price and drive
him back but he did not
The impunity with which Price was
nSbled to roam over the State OF MIS-
souri, for long time, and the incalcul'
able mischief done by him, shows 70
how little purpose superior force may
be used. There is no reason why Gen
eral Rosecrans should not have concen-
trated his forces and beaten and driven
Price before the latter reached Pilot
Knob"
The march of Sherman to Savannah,
and to Goldsboro, the first and second
attack on Fort Fisher, the removal of
General Butler, and the appointment Of
Gen. Ord in his place, and the series Of
movements which resulted In the final
surrender of Lee and Johnson occupy
most of the remaining portion of this
interesting and characteristic report,
Gen, Grant says in conclusion;
at has been my fortune TO see the
armies of both the West and the East
fight battles; and from what have
seen | know there Is no difference in
their fighting qualities. All that it was
possible for men to do in battle they
have done The Western armies COM
menced their battles in the Mississippi
valley, and received the final surrender
of the remnant of the principal army
opposed to them in North Carolina.
The armies of the East commenced
their battles on the river from which
the Army of the Potomac derived its
name, and received the final surrender OF
their old antagonist at AppomattOX
Court House. Virginia. The splendid
achievements of each have nationalized
our victories, removed all sectional
jealousies, (Of which we have unfortun-
ately experienced too much,) and the
cause OF elimination and re-crimination
that might have followed had either
section failed in its duty. All have a
proud record and all sections can well
congratulate themselves and each other
for having done their full share in re-
storing the supremacy oflaw over every
foot of territory belonging to the United
States. Let them hope for perpetual
peace and harmony with that enemy
whose manhood, however mistaken the
cause, drew forth such herculean deeds
of valor"

CoIL IS. WATERTAIL,-An Albany
correspondent of the Springfield Re-
publican, who signs himself or herself
"Dawkins" thust hrows light upon a sub
ject of "yital Importance and important
vitality :"
GAS | wish to be exact in my statements
in regard to so important subject as
ladys dress, desire to make a correc-
tion of an error which | unwittingly
fell into in my former epistle in regard
to the anxiety exhibited by the ladies
to increase the dimensions of their wa
tertalls. If 1 had made the statement
week before / did, it would have been
correct; but time is everything, and
what was the mode last week is passed
this; and herein lies my mistake. It
was not tne waterfall that the ladies
were rushing to the hairdealers for, but
a coil. Waterfalls were all the rage in
the early days Of November but in the
latter they suddenly became obsolete,
not to say vulgsr, and the coil is now
the only acknowledged fashionable ap-
pendage for the elite. Where this fash
ION of the coil came from it is difficult
to say, but it is worthy of of remark
that it's appearance was coiucident with
the advent of "Our Mutual Friend"
For the information Of any of your lady
readers-if any there are-who are not
posted in this new gem of the toilette, L
will remark that this coil bears no re-
semblance to the little knob, or nut,
which some ladies Of the old school are
pleased to wind their hair into, but it is
a regular anaconda coil Of the hugest
proportions. By the way, while | am
upon this absorbing topic, l must re-
mark that all the Albany ladies wear
their front hair crepe, a Ia contraband,
and those whose hair does not crinkle
naturally resort to the curling tongs )
and | will here relate, as the most con
vincing proof of the despotism OF fash
Jon that Georgia lady of the rankest
secession procH'rTiities, appeared in pub,
lie with her raven hair frzzled and
crinkled in most indisputably planta'
ton style.

HORSE STOLEN AND RBCovRRRD.-N.
L. Wilson, who lives near Colchester
Center, hitched his horse near the post
office, in that town, Saturday evening,
and while in the house getting his mail,
the horse and buggy were stolen. A
man was seen about half an hour after
wards driving the horse and buggy in
the direction of Milton Falls Sheriff
Munson was sent for but before Sunday
night the truant beast and buggy made
their appearance, without driver, on
the highway from Essex Junction to
Colchester. So the owner still rejoices
in the possession of his horse flesh

COURAGEOUS PROCEEDINGS IN MOEr-
PELIBR. Under this head the Boston
Post contains rather a glowing, not to
say high falutin, STORY" which serves
to illustrate the truth of Shakespeare,
that the course of true love never did
run smooth. The upshot of the matter
is that "Prof. Melchior" music teacher
had secretly made written contract of
marriage with a certain wealthy young
lady in Montpelier, name not given. An
Intellectual effort having been made to
extort from him this contract, he was
taken by a mob from his lodging room,
and violently escorted to the railway
station ana ordered 10 leave the city ~
Immediately upon penalty of being shot
if he returned" He was not allowed to
remain long enough to collect his dues
nor visit his intended, or her parent.
The marriage WAS to have taken place
the next day. The principal actors in
the Outrageous proceedings" appear to
have been rejected suitors.
1t is stated that the gentleman so IN
justly dealt with will probably resort to
legal proceedings, and sooner or later
ascertain whether he has any rights in
Montpelier that the people are bound to
| respect.

INDECENT AssAULT.-The Burlington
Times says "On Thursday evening
about o'clock, young girl between IA
and Is years of age was violently seized
by some beastly fellow, who placing his
hands over her mouth hurried her with
in the gateway of the White Street Con-
gregational Church, and was only pre-

assaulter fed away in the darkness be-
fore he could be seized or recognized.

The adoption of the constitutional
amendment abolishing slavery by the
Legislature Of South Carolina, and the
triumph Of the Union party at the late
election in New Jersey, insures the sue
cess of that great measure without refer
ence to the course that may be pursued
by the other States lately in rebellion
and Kentucky and Delaware. Twenty
seven States are the number necessary to
give the requisite two-thirds majority. of
which twenty-five have already been se-
cured. California, Oregon and New
Jersey will ratify as soon as their several
Legislatures convene, which will give one
more than the number required. Ratifi-
cation Of the amendment being one of the
conditions precedent to a return to their
full fellowship among the States of the
Union. in the reconstruction policy Of the
President, it may be safely estimated that
nearly if not all the lately rebellious
States will follow the example set by
South Carolina; and as nothing is to be
gained by further resistance on the part
of Delaware and Kentucky, there is
room to hope that ere long it viii receive
he endorsement of every State in the

attracted universal attention and elected
a great deal of comment. 1t Is clear and
explicit, and plainly sets forth the views
of its distinguished author on the great
topic of the day The sentiments en-
bodied in the speech have received the
eommendation of the Union press of the
country as far as an expression has been
given, as we'll as of prominent members
of the party in Washington and else
where, and will be endorsed by the true
friends of the Union everywhere.
