How to Revive Industry.


The following excellent remarks,
from the Richmond Dispatch, applies
equally to this and other Southern
States as to Virginia.: .
We can never prosper until we pro-
duce more than we consume. An
agricultural people can readily do
this, with the proper effort, and such
we ought to be in an eminent degree.
&wfl1 take time; but we are sure of
success, if we go to work in the right
way. Virginia wants immigration,
and she will be poor until it comes.
We don't want paupers nor drones;
not mere laborers without money,
but thrifty farmers. Honest, indus
trious men, with their families, and
the means to buy small farms and
stock them. It matters not whether
they como from New England or Old
England; nor is it important whether
they settle on tide-water or in the
Piedmont country, SO they come and
bring their gold. The lands of Vir-
ginia must be and will be sub divided,
and sold at low, living and reasonable
prices, SO that the immigrant will find
a cheap home in civilized commu-
nifty, so much better for him than to
settle where everything is wild and
rude. The great West has been built
up i'll this way, and it is the only
plan.
Men of wealth who have hereto
fore held hundreds and thousands of
acres Of land cannot cultivate them
as formerly. The system Of labor has
changed, and we must change with it.
Realize this, and the work is begun.
There is plenty of work for the poor,
and none need suffer, if they are
ready to take hold of it. Till the
soil-produce from the earth what is
wanted for sustenance-never mind
reconstruction and the currency-one
will come after little, and the other
is amply good for present purposes,
If we can get enough Of it. It is of
no use to build fine stores and fill
them with goods for people who have
no money to buy. Rents cannot. be
afforded, the goods decline in value,
and loss is certainty. It is idle to
build mills and talk of manufacturing.
until we produce the material neces
sary to sustain them. Of what use
are barns, if we have nothing to put
in them? Our wealth is in the soil,
and we must dig it out, or we shall
always be poor If we would make
the same efforts to induce good farm
ers to come among us and aid in cul-
tivating our lands, that we do to get
Northern capital to loan to each other
at enormous interest, or build fine
stores, to be soon sold at heavy loss,
we should be happier and better off:
Ii we would sustain Richmond as
1t is even, We must build up the coun-
try which trades to it; and the only
way to do that is, to encourage and
bring immigrants of the best kind
among us. Every citizen of the State
is interested in doing this. We must
be moderate i'll our demands for our
lands, and our railroad companies
must be willing to transport new
comers Mt reduced rates. Do all that
we can to secrrc immigration. That
is what we want, and we cannot get
on without it. If man has 900
acres,of land in one body to sell, let
him divide it, and sell in five or ten
tracts, so that poor people can buy.
Inaugurate this system, and we shall
find good result.

OUTRAGE UroN A Colonel Man IN

OCINAGE UPON COIIORED MAN IN
ROCHESTER,. The Rochester Express,
of late date, has the following:.
'.Nathan Sprague, cclored man,
and soninlaw to Frederick Doug
lass, lately purchased q coach and
horses, with view of running it as
public conveyance, having pro-
cured his license. He took his stand
at the regular place, on the East
side, near the Osburn House, not
withstanding threats from certain
quarters that no id Niger should
run as hackman in Rochester. On
Monday evening Of last week-the
same day Sprague commenced busi-
ness, and while his back was turned
a moment-his coach was badly cut
up and disfgured, SO as to render If
unfit for use until repairs were made,
which were quite expensive, as the
top, cushions and other parts were
nearly destroyed. Sprague is quiet,
inofensive man, and minds his own
business
And this in the abolition part of
New York! Another district is
needed.

Plan FOR REs1oDELING THE CRY
OF NEW YoRK.-We have received n

EMIGRATION FROM IRELAND. cor
respondent of the New York Herald,
writing from Queenstown, says: :
Since the beginning of the spring
emigration has considerably in
creased, and it is believed that, if the
present rate of increase continues for
any length of time, the numbers will
exceed the enormous proportions of
1860, when emigration was at its
height.
The class of people emigrating is
generally of the comfortable farming
class, and. as n rule, they are young
and healthy persons.
On no day during tho past month
was there such a rush of emigrants
as yesterday and to-day. By every
train-which leave Cork hourly, from
carly morning-scores of intending
emlgrants were to. be seen vending
their way to the railway stations at
the North and South sides of the city
en- route to Queenstown, where up
wards Of 1000 were shut out from
the three steamers which sailed on
Thursday, the 4th instant.

4 NOBLE AND DELICATE ACT. Tho
Edgefeld Advertiser says:
The New York Mutual Insurance
Company, after incurring expenses
of $500 on q marble bust Of Mrs.
Dickens, have sent it to Ex-Governor
Pickens, free of all charges whatever.
This bust, which, with one Of the
Governor himself, was executed in
Rome, by an American artist of
great distinction, reached New York
soon after the breaking out of the
war; and was received by the officers
Of said insurance company, and
kept privately in their rooms, No. 61
William street, throughout the course
of the struggle.
This act proves that there are high
toned and true. gentlemen in every
section of our country, notwithstand-
the general illiberality and narrow
feeling engendered by the late bar
barous war; and we are much pleased
to chronicle it.
Nor can we refrain from comment
ing upon the rare beauty and artistic
value of the bust in question. The
original, lovely cas- that first woman
whose beauty made Eden glad" is
here delineatcd in the purest Parian
statue-st 1t is the work of art of
which softness and loneliness are the
striking characteristics The figure
is exceedingly delicate and graceful
the outline is finely varied in the
different views; while the softness of
the form, the character of the face,
and the adjustment of the hair, are
! classically beautiful.

GEN. SIcKLEs.-The New York
Herald, in publishing the general Or
ders of Gen. Sickles, in concluding
its comments on said orders, says:
ellis general order Of the 11th is q
piece of real wisdom, all the moro
excellent for being timely. It sets
aside laws very boldly; but the bold
ness is discreet, since it sets aside
laws for the very reason for which
they wero first made-to protect the
people and prevent misery. Gen.
Sickles acts in the spirit Of a com
mander who regards the people as
committed not so much 10 his rule as
to his care. He gives noble an
swer to those disaffected Southern
politicians who have denounced the
military bill as an oppression, in
showing them how we'll it will serve
for defence against oppressors. His
first use OF his great powers has been
In favor of the people, and that
grave fact will go far to correct the
erroneous impression the South has
had OF the spirit in which the North
intended to govern. We see in Gen
Sickles man of the same type with
those who made Rome great-onc
equally competent in war and in po-
litics, with the ample development
that enables him to shine in either
sphere. He is possessed of genius,
OF experience, and has n mind cult
waited by extensive study-the three
requisites laid down by Bolingbrokc
rs necessary to q great leader; and if
he uses his opportunities with the
discretion and moderation that have
marked his course thus far, his flu
ture career will be @ splendid one fol
his country"

evils OF our present condition.

That in future, no qualification for
office, from the lowest to tue highest,

sion.
That constitutional provision
should be made for the exemption of
every mans homestead from levy and
sale, that our population may become
fixed and permanent to the soil.
That the laws of this State require
modification in many respects, but
more especially should they be SO
changed as to do away with impri-
sonmcnt for debt, except in cases of
fraud, and corporeal punishment for
crime on any other cause.
That we congratulate ourselves that,
being under military authority, we
have placed over us that humane and
enlightened soldier and statesman,
Gen. Daniel e. Sickles, the Com
mander of the Second Military Dis
trict, who is disposed, by all proper
means, to. soften, as much rs in his
power may be, the unavoidable Sc
verities of military rule; and that in
carrying ont the arduous and impor-
tant duties of his high office, he will
have our good will, cooperation and
support.
That deprecating anything like
party feeling, and disavowing parti-
zan motives, we invoke the aid Of
that God who rules the universe,
speedily to bring order out of confu-
sion, and pray Him to send His
richest blessings upon our whole
country, that we may once more be
able to utter with truth and fervor
that sentiment dear to every true
American heart, 'Liberty and Union,
now and forever, one and insepara-
ble"

GENTS: 1 think am only doing the part
of good citizen when I testify to the
great benefits received by mo from the use
Of your STOMACH BITTERs during the
last five years. Sojourning for time in
the oil regions, in 1861, I had severe
bilious attack, which, in connection with
dyspepsia, loft mo in q very weak condi-
tion. was advised to try your Bittcrs,
and, having procured n bottle, found that
they worked like charm upon me, eight
pounds having been added to my weight
III the space of one week, and new life
seemed to have been infused into my sys-
tom-so much so, that have been iu-
duced to use them every summer since
that time. AS tonic, thipb they arc
invaluable.
This summer having had similar
attack, (and as before, much reduced }
although under the treatment of an A No.
physician, was again obliged to have
recourse to the old Bitters, and with the
same good result, having gained six
pounds within few days. purchased a
half dozen bottles n few weeks since, and
purpose to use them regularly as tonic.
Wishing you every success, 1 remain
yours, gratefully, WILLIAM MILLER.
