ready start without using starting mar, and does
not require hand work get II pact the centre, and
II the only Pump made that will work it, steam

ter 81 condemnation.
II hes been used for than eight years FOR feed
Ing stationary STEAM BOILERS. and has been used
more Than I'VE years ON LOCOMOTIVES, and 10 the
only steam Pump yet tried that Is in every way adsp

for crime of which he is innocent.

though it may be matter OF surprise to our

for freight and charges. Two-thirds OF these
persons are females, one of whom is said to be

quite common, but this invoice, we believe, is
the first ever received in Texas. What the re-
suit will be remains to be seeu."
The Southern Trans-C Continental Railroad
has recently been the subject Of letter writ
ten by General Rosecrans, in view Of his mis-
sion to Mexico, the northern States of which
are interested in the route. The General pro-
poses a grand trunk line from Ell Paso, in the
valley of tho Rio Grande, to point on the Rio
Colorado, where connection could be made
with the Southern Pacific or San Diego and
Gila City Railway, of California. On the east
ern endit is suggested that three Of the prin-
cipal lines only, that is, tie Kansas Branch of
the Pacific, the Memphis and New Orleans, and
the Fulton and Shreveport, should ask for aid
from Congress to build as far as Ell Paso, and
that the road reaching that point first should
be entitled to receive the subsidies for the
trunk line. The Northern States of Mexico
would, it is asserted, connect with this route,
and obtain all their supplies and machinery for
the development of the immense mineral re-
sources Of the region.

Immigration-The True relations of
Foreign and Dom estic Labor.

A. correspondent of the Baltimore Ga
zette, who dates his letter from the Depart
ment of Labor and Agriculture in that city,
says that there are not wanting in the South
sagacious men who perceive that the source
of their future prosperity must be found
in "direct trade and European immigra-
'stion. The writer condemns the suggestions
which have been made to domicile amongst
US ten millions of Asiatics, as thing which
would be fatal to the South and says that
his purpose is to show that any amount Of
labor can be obtained from Europe, when
ever States or individuals are prepared to
advance the cost of transportation.
At present, says the writer in the Ga
zette, the immigration is chiefly from Ger
many, and is confined to those who have the
means to defray the expense of the ocean
passage. Great Britain, by Offering liberal
grants of land and cheap passages, secures
large emigration TO her colonies; but
''from her shores and from all parts of Eu-
'rope any required amount of labor can be
obtained at the cost Of transportation, and
seven that to be returned from the wages
'of the laborers." The agent of the State
of Maryland, at Liverpool writes: "If
'could offer to the working people here free
"or even assisted passage, numbers, almost
"without limit, would go over to you"
Since April last, lO,7O2 immigrants have
landed at the port of Baltimore; the farm
hands who have remained in Maryland
contracting for ten and twelve dollars per
month, with board, aud giving full satisfac-
tion to their employers. They bring with them
IN average of one hundred dollars in money
or personal property; bit the great prOfi;
is in the value Of their labor. The writer
says, in conclusion, thatifthe Baltimore lines

Several weeks ago, General Howard,
Commissioner of the Freedmen's Bureau,
upon proper representation of the disas-
trous reeult of the planting operations of
the past year along the seaboard Of South
Carolina, and of the consequent distress
among the planters, issued an order, framed
with q view of affording them relief. The
order provides, in substance, that in each
case where total or partial failure of the
crop shall be shown to have occurred from
causes beyond the planters control, upon
payment of the accrued interest upon the
debt incurred for provisions advanced by
the government, an extension of the time
allowed for the payment of the bond shall
be granted, without further interest, until
the first day Of November, 1869. In the
execution of this wise and humane measure
Of indulgence, some differences of opinion
having arisen as to i.s construction and
application, General Howard was again ap-
pealed to. We are glad to learn that he has
just issued supplementary order to facili-
tate the operation of the first. By this, we
understand, Commission is created, the
members Of which are to be Colonel Edie,
Assistant Commissioner Of the Bureau for
South Carolina, Governor Scott, and E1-
Governor Aiken, to whom it shall be re-
ferred, in each case, to determine whether
the proposed relief ought to be granted.
Pending the action Of the Commission, the
collection of the claims of the government
for advances is suspended.
This result, so welcome to the impover-
ished planters of the sea islands, is mainly
due to the exertions of Colonel William
Whaley, who, within few weeks, has twice
visited Washington in their behalf. In the
accomplishment of the purposes Of his mis-
sion, he has had the cordial and efficient
support of Governor Scott.
