Immigration TO Virginia.

The following are extracts from =
speech on Immigration to Virginia. re.
Gently delivered a, Buckingham Court
House, by DR.. Oliver. a Scotch gentle
man, who is now travelling in that State ::
You must have immigration al once to
develop your resources. The present state
Of affairs can't last long; negroes, who
cannot govern themselves, cannot govern
while men. There is no precedent for it
in all history Ifthey don't wish to be
annihlated by the civilized, energetic and
progressive white man, they must fall
back into their natural position, abide
their contracts, and be faithful TO their
friends. ltis marvellous 10 me that after
a war Of such inequality Of numbers, ia
which you fought so valianhy that you
should now despond. The spiri, of your
fathers should raise you above that. The
Scotch people whom propose soon to
settle among you are well educated, espe-
cially in the arts OF industry. They can
and will work. Their habits, sympa.
lhies and religion ale like yours. The
Scotch are ,sised to work and love it.
Their industry has increased ScoIland's s
wealth and power, and raised her high in
the world. am both Scotch and En-
glish, and love both sections. The farm
ers in Scotland and England pow twelve
inches deep and plow about two acres
each day. The laborers look well after
the crops, and study closely their mas.
ters' interest. Upon such fertile land as
have seen in the county OF Buckingh ham
they would raise. by good cultivation,
double the amount you are now raising.
The land here is as rich as the West, or
the bulk Of Grea, Brailain. All ilwanls
is good tillage by good labor. You have
many advantages over The West, being an
older sociely-with more comforts. more
facilities for transportation, greater exemP-
ton from diseases, from tornadoes floods,
droughts, killing winters, &C., &c.
Numbers OF my people are anxious 10
emigrsle because the population is so
dense that they cannot be supported.
There is more labor than can be employ
ed or managed, and many wander about
seeking employment and finding none.
They only want men Of character to visit
Virginia to tell them of the state OF affairs
the soil and climate, the advantages, min
eral, agricultural and commercial. the dis.
position Of the people, &C., and then they
will flock in by thousands. Our people
must find empIoymen somewhere; they
cannot find it in their own country.
Thousands are out OF work, poorhouses
are full, crime on the increase, taxation
heavy. &c. Many farm aborers hire
for $35 yeor, and have their own fami.
lies 10 support, and would be glad Of the
pay and abundant living which the work.
ing population Of Virginia get. The la
borers OF Virginia live better than many
Of the middle classes Of England and
Scotland

A NnhIe SpeCtacle.

One Of the mos, g oTious inIeIiects the
world ever produced-a Roman philoso-
pher. whose grand genius was only
equaled by his sublime moralty-ulIer-
ed this beautiful remark: A noble soul
suffering the severest strokes OF fortune
wilhou, murmur, is a spectacle which
the gods themselves must look upon with
admiration. With what admiration, then,
must we not regard the people OF the
South, who, being conquered after
struggle which had no parallel in history,
are now suffering the stings OF outrageous
fortune with such sublime resignation !!
Every Southern paper that we take up
tells the same sad story of poverty, dis
,ress and utter ruin. Neither the pages
Of history nor the fiction Of poetry exblb-
il such awful and widespread deshluiion.
People accustomed 10 indulge every luxu-
rious whim, to dispense warm and
boundless hospitality, 10 be surrounded
by troupes OF obsequious DenIals, are
now reduced TO state o sarvsiion. But
not a murmur escapes their famishing
lips. They suffer. but they do moi repine.
+ They may die, but they will not despair,
for they are the descendsnls of the he
roes of Eutaw, Yorktown and New Or
leans.
Ac,uated by no generous feelings to-
wards the conquered, the merciIess mis-
creanis who control the Government con-
,inue their iniquitous work of subj eating
the Rebels, by infamous laws lnfamously
carried out. Not satisfied wiih crushing
them 10 the earth, they now seek to place
them under the irresponsible tyranny, Of
their former slaves. All history does not
show so hideous, so dannsble crime as
his. The Romans at the height Of their
naughty tyranny, with PROSTATE world
al their feet. never attempted any thing so
monslrous. No. Ii was left for the
party Of great moral ideas" to con-
ceive this vIlliany. But it never can be.
The chief glory Of America comes from
the South. A Southern Jefferson wrote
our Declaration Of Independence. A
Southern Washington led our armies 10
victory. Southern statesmen made our
Government what it DaS Northern
demsgogues have made i, what it is.
The present darkness and distress
which covers the Southern land like pail
must pass away. In the midst OF their
woe lie. the Southern people remember
,hst the darkest hour is juss before the
dawn. Let them treasure the eloquent
words Of their poe, priest, Father Ryan
The spirit Of liberty never dies oPpres-
sion and tyranny may entomb il for
time, but it rises glorious and resplendeni
from the tomb. The cause may be lost
but the principle lives. and shsll live for
ever.-Southsrn Society.
