CHARLESTON, FEBRUARY 81, 1867.
! YE1HE undersigned, having been appoint
\ ell Commissioner, has been instructcl.
by his tXcellcncy Governor Orr to organ
iZc the Bureau at the earliest possible mo
ment. IN few days, agents will be ap-
pointed by the Governor to proceed 10
Europe, whose duty it will be to induce
immigration to our State, to disseminate
such information as may be furnished them
of lands for sale or lease, and to engage
such ia3orers, mechanics, servants and
other help as may be desired by the nha-
b!tants OF the State. An agent for tho
same objec. ":!i, perhaps, be sent to New
York. 1t would be desirable tha. all pco-
pie furnish this Bureau, without delay,
with information how they desire to be
served, indicating the kind of help they
require and the wages which they are will
ling to pay; or a description of the lands
they have for sale or lease, and their terms
and conditions If combinations can be
formed in the several Districts of the State
for JOINT action, 1t would perhaps, facii-
tate mutual operations; and wherc ar
ranScments can be made to advance part
Of the passage money Of the laboring i'm
migrants, by accepted orders to that effect
on any OF the factors or merchants of
Charleston, it would no doubt greatly ad-
vance the result. If the people that favor
this measure would meet at their respect
i've Court Houses to consult and indicate
Their wants, this Bureau would take great
pleasure in serving their interest to the
best Of its ability. a pamphlet will be
printed iii several European languages for
distribution, describing the capacities ard
advantages of our soil, climate, produc-
tions, etc, in which many particulars, that
are promptly furnished, may be advertised.
The means at the disposal of this Bureau
being strictly limited, the kind assistance
Of the conductorS of our public journals IS
respectfully requested.

The Washington correspondent of


The TariT--strangc Developments.
The Washington correspondent of
a New York paper writes:
ga clause was inserted in the bill
by the Senate, repeating the law of
last session, requiring the Pacific
Railroad Company, and certain others
West of the Mississippi, to use Ame-
rican iron in the construction of all
railroads in the United States. This
feature was intended to protect our
manufacturers against foreign COM
petition. The Ways and Means
Committee have restored it in the
bill"
It is stated by the New York Ec-
press that the Senate inserted this
report in the bill, and without di-
vision, on motion of Mr.. Sherman,
of Ohio. Mr.. S. stated, in debate,
that Welsh and British iron now
costs, on the other side, about thirty
five dollars per ton, and ninety dol
la.:sss e Pennsylvania, where there ;s
not half rolling master enough to
supply the demand for rail iron,
there being, therefore, an absolute
necessity to import iron and rails to
relay old tracks and to lay the nume-
rous tracks now building, especially
II Iowa, and the Northwest gene
rally.
Some amazing facts are forced on
the people of that section just now
by the high bounty tariff men in
Congress. Some of these are thus
stated:
l. That Welsh iron is being laid on
the Pennsylvania Central Railroad,
while to lay the Pacific Railroad, in
California, Pennsylvania rails have to
be sent to the coast and thence to be
shipped via Cape Horn to San Fran
cisco, where iron, at half the price,
could be had from Wales or England,
paying the Government a handsome
revenue.
2. That the cost of rails is such the
old railroads cannot afford to keep
themselves in good repair.
3. That while heavy food is rotting
in some parts of the West, the cost
Of transportation over heavy taxed
rails is SO great that not only a large
number of the Southern people are
suffering, but it is stated many labor
ers at the East are sometimes near
starving
4. That while Iowa is struggling
under unprecedented difficulties to
connect with the Pacific at Omaha,
(Nebraska,) the Pacific Road is pay
ing the ironmongers of Pennsylvania
from IS to IS per ton bounty, and to
this extent obstructing the conncc-
ton Of the Pacific States with the
Atlantic
Such is the result Of radical legis-
lation. Surely the people of the
w est ana Northwest Will have their
eyes opened, ere long, to the motives
of the party headed by Stevens and
others OF that stripe. While, politi-
cally, they are trying to crush the
poor unfortunate people OF this sec
ton, they are inhicting upon the
peop'e who aid them against Us meal
culaDle injury, as well as impeding
almost every great interest of the
country. and all for what? That
Thad. Stevens and his brother IRON
mongers of Pennsylvania may make
large profits. Such is tAe failaticism
Of the present Congress.
