Gov. ANDREWS SOUTHERN LAND COMPANY
We wolld call attention to the advertisement of
the American Land Company and Agency at
New York. This establishment being under the
lead of wel-known New England men, will afford
great facilities for those wishing to embrace the
opportunities which are daily Offering OF obtain
ing at a low price fertile lands st the South. The
high prIce of cotton and of all the staples which
can be easily raised in abundance in hea!thful
and eligible locations in irly all of the Southern
States, cannot fail to attract large Northern as
well as foreign immigration into that section, and
much trouble and expense will be saved to the
immigrant by starting right under the guidance
of experienced parties. Governor Andrew, under
whose auspices this Company has been organized,
is perhaps, the most influential man i'll New Eng
land. He has given up the Governor hip OF Mas
sachusetts (by declining to be candidate for re-
electon) to accept this position. We may, there
fore, expect something important from the opera
tiOns Of his Company.
The New York Commercial concludes a long
article on the South with the following words:
To-day it is the iairest field for tortIne.sesk-
ers, and who is not seeker Of fortune} No
country, and no time or conjunction of crcum.
stanCeE, ever held out such sure and liberal in
ducemeuts TO industry, thrift and pluck as the
southern States, under present circumstances,
hold out. 1t is no time to bewail high prices,
buL rather 10 work and produce, and so bring
tt.TA lower. As journalists, we perform duty
in pointing out TO labor the golden land of pro-
mise, now revealed to it in the South"
