COMING TO THEIR SRNsEs.nTh Rich
mond Whig, discoursing on the re-es-
tab1ishment of the industry and pros
perity of Virginia, says: "only let
labor be made honorable and Incidence
nfashionableiR in the Old Dominion, and
her soil will be worth quite as much
per acre as that of New England, New
York, Pennsylvania or Ohio, and her
be rapidly swelled to an ag-
gregate of not less than FIVE niIlions.'' y
That is it,. If the srecent revolution in
the South hud produced no other good
than teaching the people to rely upon
their own labor for their own Inainte-
nance, instead of exacting IL from un-
willing sources, it viii have effected a
great deal for the future permanent
prosperity of the State. It Is singular
how thegold feeling sticks to a system
which from the nature of things could
not continue much longer, and Which
grntlhed pride at the expense OF thereal
wealth and power of the people. When
labor is free to go and, come to work or
not to work, us It pleases, twill always
seek the place where it Is most remII-
nerated, and Virginia presenting re-
sources equal to those of Pennsylvania
or New York, will, with free labor and
equal political privileges inyite the
same kind OF industry and entefprise
which have made them thet leading
States in the Union in population and
wealth. ls2%At3ikt,-s ~ T+sEtt' -

HoIs Free Labor Pnrr.

A planter of the Parish of Iberyille.
La, has addressed the following com
municatiop to the Freedmen's Aid AS
ISOLATION of New Orleans: II vll lig4
lam planter. of twelve years, expa-
ftencei this year i am working twelve
hands, six men and six women /; my la
borefs are TO get one-fourth Of the net
proceeds of the crops. They have full
understanding Of the interest in thesaid
crops. Our contract was made on the
1st of February 1ast, and the result so
tnr is a complete success; we have to-
day IS! arpents of cotton, % arpentsiof
sugar canes, rs arpents of corn, all in
perfect condition. don't mention the
vegetable crops, Under the old system
ten arpents TO the hand was considered
e mir result, and more than three
fourths of the plantati lions fhiled to come
to that standard. My laborers are all
good people, behaving well, having
good. common sense; they are honest
and true to their family. besides the
crop IN common, they have raised for
their private account small crops of
corn and vegetables; they have poultry,
etc.5 OF their own. Not n single diff
entity. has occurred among them since
they have agreed TO work on my farm.
Thus is the whole labor problem
solved. Deal jGstly, give the freedmen
semetinterest in their work, and there
will be no trouble. In this case fifty
per cent. more of ground is cultivated
than the same number of hands culti-
waited under the old system, and the
probability is that the planter will make
that per cent. more. It is probably best
to "peg away, ut the old shareholders,
till they conclude to deal justly, and
thus tight tout on that iine.''l 1t is
nothing but shear ugliness on their
part that causes all the trouble and in
flicts all the distress upon tho freedmen.

THE Gew York c0n.meretaJ is of the
opinion TINT the present high premium
on gold and foreign exchange cannot
long be maintained. According to the
Commercial, importers decline p6rchas-
ing more than they are obliged, at these
high rates from an opinion that the

They argue that the exports OF cotton

A Saratoga ScandaI.

LII r. T = 80 4 H- .H o.
The season just closed at Saratoga is
not unlike its predecessors in the way
of scandal. This Is the bane of most
fashionable watering places. People
having nothing else to do, direct their
attention to vulgar scandal and the
backbiting of those of whom they are
envious because, probably, they cannot
make SO fine n "show'' as they who are
made their victims. Mr.. q. Marcus
Chapman is n wealthy old bachelor,
who has retired from business on. n
