Exodus Of LaborerS,

We observe that the newspapers pub
lished in various localities, report conside-
rab!e numbers OF freedmen migrating
from their respective sections to the South
Western States. From this District also,
we learn that good many are preparing
60 leave with the hope of bettering their
fortunes in the West. This drain upon
the laboriny classes will be seriously felt
in the State, and the planters should turn
their attention TO the subject, with the
view of retaining all Of the good working
hands that can be induced 10 remain a.
mong us. 1t is mistake to suppose that
the country will be benefited 6y the ex,
odus that is going oh. True, it rids us
of few consumers, but labor is what the
State needs to recuperate her exhausted
energies, and without it, we must grow
weaker and more impoverished than we
are. 1t is not the idle and thievish con.
sumner who is inclined to 60 10 the West;
II that were the case, their absonse would
be an advantage but it is the energetic
unencumbered and aspiring freedmen who
seek to improve their condition bv reno.
wing to a country where labor is higher :;
and 1t is this class which should be en-.
courageI to remain in the State.
While the Legislature is expending
money in the effort to induce foreign n-
igration and introduce white laborers a,
mong us, the same ulterior object may be
aided by an effort on the part Of the peo
pie to retain the labor which is already
here If this drain upon the productive
capacity Of the State continues for few
gears longer, our lands will deprecia;e in
value, numerous farms will be neglected
for the want of persons TO work them,
our vast resources will remain undeveIor,
e1, ard the State deteriorate into a com
parative waste, from the absence Of that
labor which is the life OF everv commu.
nifty.
There never was a time when labor
promised greater results Than it does now.
and we believe tha. a sound public policy
requires that efforts be made to retain, by
liberal inducements, the bette, class Of
freedmen in the State.

Acts OF the legislature.

A large portion Of the present issue of
our paper is taken Up with the publta
ton OF the recent Acts of the Legisla
ture. Some OF these are important and
will be of interest to a.! Of our readers.
A larger number OF Acts were passed
than usual, but they were mostly Of a
local character. The principal laws of
general interest are the Appropriation and
Tax bills; the District Court bill; the
Act repeating the Usurv laws the Act
to amend the criminal law, aud the Ac,
to encourage emigration ; all Of which
will be published in this paper.

Nothing Of especial interest has trans
pired at the Capital during the past week,
Congress having adjourned over for two
weeks to spend the Christmas holidays
with their families.
Petitions are circulating throughout
the North for signatures, praying Con j..
gress to refrain from the passage of any
Act authorizing the curtailment of the
national currency, or having in view the
return, within a limited time, TO specie
payments. This movement is in opposi
ton to the policy of Secretary McCul!och,
who man1aines that the country wants
more labor instead Of more currency
The fall in gold is not in consequences Of
anything the Secretary has done.
