The Convention Address.

Ine new. 1orK Times closes an
editorial on the address of the recent
Conservative Convention, as follows:
Looking at the subject from this
distance, we are not prepared to re-
ceive the gloomy ,vaticinations of
these Carolina planters as conclusive
against the future availability Of ne
gro labor. The testimony of officers
of the Freedmen's Bureau and others
has tended to create the opinion that
under judicions management, with
kind and generous treatment, and
good faith in the performance of OBJ
legations, free negro labor has been
neither unreliable nor improbable.
Exceptions have occurred, of course,
and they may have been more numer-
GUS in South Carolina than else
where; but the rule seems to have
been established that the freedmen
are willing to work when fairly treat
ed and reasonably paid. At the same
time, the necessity. of fundamental
changes in the Organization of labor,
and it's management by the planters,
has been clearly proved. The de-
struction of slavery entailed the ne
cessity of remodeling management
begotten OF bondage. The old plan
tation system is no longer possible.
The planter must surrender his aris-
tocratio notions and come nearer the
standard of the Northern farmer. The
system of vast estates must be aban-
doned and small farms take tlieir
place. The waste o17the old system
must be followed byAEhe use of ap-
pliances to which the South has been
a stranger, and by an economy it
never knew. Where these teachings
of the inevitable have been respected,
there is comparative satisfaction with
free black labor; and we suspect that
it is because they have been disre-
garded in South Carolina that the
complaints we chronicle are heard.
OF this we are confident-the gen.
tlemen of the Columbia Convention
will look in vain for the white labor
they propose to use in agriculture
and manufactures, on the terms they
are accustomed to, in dealing with
the blacks, or on any terms, until the
political condition of the South be
settled by restoration to the Union.
There can be no influx of people from
the North, or of immigrants from
abroad. so long as the Southern whites
maintain an attitude of resistance to
the requirements of Congress. Peace
is an indispensable preliminary to
progress, and "the path to peace
despite the hopes of the planters,
and the soothing whispers of the
World-lies through reconstruction.
This finished, the vast fields of the
South will invite Northern energy,
enterprise and capital, and the mate
rial prosperity it 80 urgently Graves,

EDUCATION AMONG THE FREED PEo.
PIE.-Gen. Howard, in his report of
the operations of the Freedman's 8
Bureau, mentions some interesting
facts illustrative of the continued
eagerness of the colored people for
education-facts which show that
their haste to avail themselves of the
privilege of being taught sprang not
from love OF novelty, as some sup
posed, bat from genuine apprecia-
ton of the advantages of education.
The total number of day, night and
industrial schools, under the super
vision of the Bureau, is 2,2O7, with
2,442 teachers, of whom 500 are
colored. The number of scholars is
l30, 735, showing ON increase of
40, 600 since the last annual report.
The freedmen own 391 school-houses,
support wholly or in part ], ,056 of the
schools, and pay on an average
Sl4, ,555 month for tuition. These
figures are certainly encouraging, and
other portions of Gen. Howard g re-
port are not less 80. For example,
the expenditures of the Bureau have
been SO much less than the appro-
priations that there are funds enough
still on hand to carry it on till July,
when its existence terminates by
limitation. Commissary supplies to
q limited extent have been issued to
the INDECENT, but every effort is MAX.
ing to induce the civil authorities to
undertake the relief of their own
poor.-Ne,O York Tribune.

The LUTHERAN SYNOD. We extract
the following report from Mondays
proceedings of this Synod:

proceedings Of this Synod:
''The Committee report that this
Church 10 gradually recovering from
the consequences of the late war, and
find indications of fresh hope and re-
newed energy. They report that
they know of no cause for apprehen-
sion or despair, and believe that the
threatening clouds of the future will
be happily dispelled. DIR. Bachman's
church continues % present noble
example of Christian zeal and fideli-
ty, and there has been an increase of
1852 members during the past two
years. There is peace and harm ony
throughout the whole Church, and
even the freedmen seem inclined to
keep up friendly Christian relation
with it.
j Several congregations are about
to rebuild their churches, and all are
exhorted to regard the wants of the
brethren in general, and the efforts
of the Building Committee. The
Committee speak in high terms of
the good effects of the Sunday School
system, and recommend their forma-
ton where they do not already exist.
The work of home missions should
be energetically prosecuted; in the
South west there is an inviting field.
The German congregations are an
important part of the Church, and
the people are daily becoming better
acquainted with their honorable and
commendable traits of character.
They should be advised, befriended
and protected, so as to remove the
prejudices raised by fanaticism
against them. Their cooperation is
most desirable, and we should join
heart and hand in n'laying q deep foun-
dation for the prosperity of the Luz
theran Church. They appeal to them
tor an union for the advancement of
Lutheran piety, and deprecate all di-
visions of feeling"

Rocky Mount, Edoeconab County.

Nortt Carolina, November 13, 1865.
James r. Dey, Esq.
Sir: In reply to your inquiry of the re-
suits OF our experience in the use of your
improved oudrette-purchased of you for
this years cotton crop-we would beg leave
to say that the present season has been
one quite unfavorable to the action of all
fertilizers.
Several kinds Of manures were used by
us, with the exception of your Poudrette,
with little or no effect to the crop.
Where the Poudrette was used, it gave
us near half bale more per acre, and
caused the cotton to open much earlier;
and we would, therefore, recommend the
same as concentrated manure for the
growth Of cotton, as we'll as improvement
to the soil. Yours, very respectfully,
HENRY P. STULTS & BRO.

Sir: The Double Refined Poudrette I
bought for two other parties in connection
with myself-one of them used it on cotton

the other put it on cotton, on very poor
ground, and thinks it doubled his crop. I
used It on corn. 1t answered finely, and
was thought By the hand that cultivated
the crop to be fully equal to Rhodes Super
Phosphate. I also used it on about an
acre OF cotton, and am clearly of opinion
that it is the best and cheapest fertilizer
In use. and expect to order several tons

PROSPECTS IN THE SOUTH WEST
The following is an extract from a
business letter, dated New Orleans,
March 16, and received by ] "
camille house in this city:
A serious matter in the future is the
overflow which now exists from Mem
phls to Vicksburg, and which it is
feared will do more damage from
Vlcksburg down. The damage done
so far, will cause thousands OF acres
to be abandoned. Planters who were
poor before, are helpless now. This
may and no doubt will have Il mate
rial influence on this years crop in
Aiabama, Mississippi and Louisiana
Planters meet with difficulty in
making arrangements for this years
crop. The military bill, it is feared,
Will operate against the labor of the
country, and entirely destroy the

may have as large cotton crops as
before the war In the interim,
however, there will be much loss and
