The Virginia Land and Immigration Aid Conn


RICHMOND Va, January 90, lS66.
Hon. A. s. Gray, Chairman If the Senate Commit
tee on General LGWs:
DEAR SIR-The House bill, No. ia, incorporating
the Virginia Land and immigration Aid Company,
referred TO your committee on Saturday last IN tie
third part of section st authorizes this company TO
hold at any one time not more than one hundred
thousand acres OF land, by purchase, until the year
1881 and not more than ten thousand acres after
that year. But understand that prior TO the intro
ducton and passage of this bill in the House of Del
gates one or two bills having apparently identical
object towit the object of bringing immigrants to
this State passed in the Senate by which the ncOr-
porated companies have been limited II holding at
any one time not more than twenty-five thousand
acres of land. ] am aware that the opposition man.
fesed in the Senate to allow these to hold
more than twenty-five thousand acres of land, by
purchase is based upon the sound policy OF prevent
ing great monOpolies of landed interest where ap.
pliances of banking, securities, &c. be employ
ed to mould great political and commercial infiu-
ences. 1t may, however, be overlooked that these
objections do not apply to the bill OF the Virginia
Land and immigration Aid Company, now before
your committee. beg leave therefore, TO call,
respectfully TO your attention that the objects of this
company are simply to encourage immigration 10
this State, and thereby to develop its and
TO retrieve its material and political losses. have
no interest in the company, but having welded ny
future to the South. have promised to the gentle
men named in the bill 10 lend this company all the
influence possess amongst the Europeans to attain
these objects which can only be effected By my COW
enanting with this company IN behalf OF the Euro
means. that the company will procure for them labor
for wages and sell to them land for piices on terms
and conditions to be stipulated for with me- when 1t
shall be organized. Agents are suspected and mis-

trusted by ths Europeans; and Southern agents
would haze ID compete with the Northern agents,
which last nfe already established IN every part Of
Europe. aud whose interest is antagonstic to that Of
the South There is no other practical way to sue
coed in turning the tide of immigration from the
Northwestern States TO the Southern but the plan
which the gentlemen named in the bill of me Vir-
ginia Land and immigration Aid Company accepted
and propose TO carry into effect. But, unless this
company is allowed to hold ut any one time, the
requisite number of acres of land, to enable it to
locate such number of immigrants as / may send
from Europe within one month, this plan would fail
| would not 90 TO Europe to undertake sending emil
grants ~ Virginia, or 10 any State, 1t | were not
sure that it is in my power to send there IRON i've 10
ten thousand every month. Now, II IN this number
OF immigrants there happen TO be only one-half OF
laborers for hire and the other half desire to pur
chase land and settle thereon, ask what this COM
pany would do with the latter if it is allowed To
hold, at any one time, only twenty-five thousand
acres OF land Allowing only One hundred acres
for each settler it would locate, twenty-five thou
sand acres, only one thousand settlers the rest
would not be located for some time after their land
ing which could create dissatisfaction amongst
them, and make the company liable 10 them for the
breach OF covenant made with me on their behalf.
Moreover, 50 disappointed, immigrants would at
once write TO their friends in Europe not to rely upon
my arrangements promising them Location in settle
ments on their arrival to this State and this, it is
obvious, would at once defeat the whole scheme of
operation.
beg you and the committee, most respectfully, to
consider the foregoing, and, if deemed necessary
request you 10 read this letter in the Senate in sup
port of the House bill of the Virginia Land and I'm
migration Aid Company, to have it passed as it is
pow Tor its alteration, by limiting the company 10
holding by purch twenty-five thousand acres OF
land, ut any one time instead of one hundred thou
sand acres, would amount to defeat OF the object
OF bringing Immigrants to this State in such num-
bers the welfare OF the Commonwealth and OF its
people now requires.
Very respectfully, have the honor sir, to be,
