An EMIGRATION Association.

At brief intervals for the past two years,
we have presented the subject of emigra
ton to our readers. For the first twelve
months we met but little encouragement.
Men said to US, 1--WE prefer negroes to
work our land we are used to them and
they are used to US. Besides, they are
here, and the white Iaborers are not, and
we owe the negro a fair trial as a free la
borer." We heard respectfully, but with
out being convinced, We recog nized a
new order of things to be inaugurated, re
quIring new arrangements on the part of
our people. Not waiting for encourage
ment it has come to US. The men who
tried to convince US of error are themsel-
YES convicted. and now only ask US
Chow can emigran;s be induced to come %
The true PLAINS easy. It is to seek only
the best class Of laborers, and to seek them
at home and in perfect fairness. Putyour-

Learn how many want hands. Q. What
hind ofhands, and for how long. 3. Then
show what you have in hand 4. And
terms you are willing to make. The nat.
ural and proper way to do these things is
to form an association. When you have
done these four things, then secure some
intelligent and trustworthy man who IN
derstands you and your wants, and let the
association pay his expenses to Great Bril-
tain-or to Germany, if you prefer-and
authorize him to engage you the number

Mary land, and some parts of Kentucky,
such associations have been formed and
the laborers procured, without any trouble
whatever At GAINESVILLE, in this State,
also some Of the farmers of Montgomery
county, have formed an association, and
are taking steps tosecue Iaborers. 1t is
therefore incumbent on our farmers to
move in the matter with promptress and
liberaliiy. Let an assoc alton be formed,
not an association for speculation, or for
political purposes, but an association of
the men who want the labor, and who have

BROWNLOWTsM FALLS!
Democratic Gains
EYER Y WHERE!

The latest dispatches we have received
up to the hour of going to prefs, are those
contained in the Nashville papers of Thurs
day morning. Indications are that Ohio
and Pennsylvania have gone Democratic,
yet there is still some doubt as to the re-
suit One thing is certain, the Democrat
ic ticket has made sastonishingly heavy
gains in those States, as well as in Iowa
and Montana. In Ohio the constitutional
amendment to allow negro suffrage has
been defeated by $4,000 votes, and des-
patches say that the Legislature is Dem
ocraGc.
The tidings certainly indicate great re-
action against Radicalsm-much greater
than the most sanguine had dared to hope
for. With joyous heart we bid the old
"unterrifed" God-speed, and trust that it
may YET redeem this fair land from tie
bondage of Radcalism.
LATER.-Since the above was written
our eye has fallen upon the following spe-
cial despatch to the Nashville Gazette:
CINCINNATI, Oct. 9, 10 P. MI is al
most certain that the Democrats have a
majority on joint ballot in the Legislature
thus shelving Ben Wade and putting Pen
dleton in his place.
The vote for Governor is so close that
both parties claim it.
The Constitutional Amendment is de-
feated by more than fifty thousand Go, 0OO)

The Memphis AgaZancbe says: In re-
cent speech at Nashville, Secretary fetch
er denounced the Northern people called
them bummers and Office seekers, and de-
clared that the negroes were carrying
things with such high hand that they
would soon have all the native whites of
the State rebels, and the Unionists against
them. Indeed This is pretty talk for
man who has been hob nobbiDg with the
negroes of Tennessee for the last six months.
So it seems the Radicals have raised
storm, but they cannot direct the whirl-
wind. 1t is the teachings of just such
demagogues that have inspired the negro
with the belief that he 'could carry things
with high hand" It was the remark Of
General Harrison that there was striking
contrast in She conduct of men before the
election and after the election. A few
weeks since Mr.. Thatcher regarded the ne
gro as a political divinity, to be worship
peIby the white race now that he is
snugly ensconced in a fat Office he talks of
their impertinence. Simply because the
black man proposes to weld the power
fOisted upon him by the Radical party, and
to make his voice heard in nominating caa-
didates for their suffrages, he is told that
be will soon have the native whites against
him, both Radical and Conservative. Be-
fore the election the negro was the pipe to
play on, but now he is to be cast aside as
unceremOniOusly as if he were a squeezed
lemon. 1.-THE negro at Nashville has shown
presumption and arrogance, it has been
taught him by just such leaders as fetch
er, who have inflated him with the belief
that he had nothing to do but to exercise
the prerogauve of freemen, control cleo
tons and elect whom he pleases. We are
indeed surprised that the black man has
not been more clamarcus for Office
