and EGDERT HAsARD, editor of the Ameri-

1mmigrntion-A New Scheme.

Wesee it announced that there are in
Virginia, at this time, several gentlemen
who are inclined to cooperate with the
citizens of the Southern States in an effort
to divert portion of the better class Of
immigrants from Europe to our shores.
The scheme which these gentlemen propose
is briefly explained by the Richmond
Wing as follows: The owners of land
form companies by subscription of parts or
whole tracts, mill property, mines, &C., to
the capital stock, the valuation to be made
by agreement OIL by appraisement, and stock
issued to the various owners to the amount
of valuation. Then additional preferred
stock, bearing six per cent interest, paya-
bic from first dividend, is issued in amounts
sufficient TO cover expenses of surveying.
mapping, advertising, &C.. TO a company of
capitalists organized for this purpose in
London. After the interest Of the money
advanced is satisfied, the dividends will be
paid upon oil the stock alike, that is, to
both land and cash subscribers.
This appears very fair method cs solv-
ing the great problem, especially as it in
terests pecuniarily body of men in Eng
land in the direction OF that class of emf
grants who are able to purchase or lease,
and who have capacity to cultivate our
land. The influx Of intelligent and ener-
getic English or Scotch farmers will BIZ
hailed by every class of our people with
rejoicing. There are no people with whom
our citizens will SO readily affiliate as with
these honest farmers, who will become of
US and with us at once. We hope that the
labors of those who have come among us
with this plan of aid will meet with every
assistance which our people can afford.
The gentlemen now urging the adoption

to which of them should be killed and serve rs
food for the others. The victim was des'gna-
ted and underwent his fate with resignation.
Three davs after this horrible sacrifice, on the
| sixth OF January, the boat touched at Moham-
DO, in Madagascar, and there, more dead than
alive the furnished men were kindly received
and sent to the French Consul.

and sold to coored people. The manson mas
gone to ruin, the handsome groves that once
decorated and adorned the grounds have been
ruthlsssly destroyed. and devastation has
usurped the place of ancestral splendor.

tainly come off on the day appointed, and the
new Indictment which has been found against
him is said to have been prepared with view
to his conviction, as it avoids the errors and

ment, and which caused the government law
officers to hesitate heretofore about proceed
ing to trial.
Secretary Stanton has written hasty note
to Secretary Cameron. Having learned from
Yesterdays papers that it is the ardent desire
of Gov. Geary and so many other equally dis
tineuished Pennsylvanans, that no should be
n,aced at the head of the Treasury Depart
ment, he was doubtless afraid that MIR. Came
ron might be led to take some precipitate ac-
ton in the premises, and earnestly requests
that he will not make such recommendation,
for, says the modest Secretary, "enough OF my
life has been devoted to public duties. No con-
sideration can induce me to assume those OF
the Treasury Department, or to continue longer
in the War Department than may be required
for the appointment and confirmation OF my
successor.

CHARLES TON
SATURDAY MORNING, APRIL 1S. 1868.
Impartial Suffrage.

The action of the convention recently as
sembled st Columbia in recognizing the
colored population of the State as an inte-
grail element of the body polite" and de-
claring "willingness, when we have the
power, to grant them, under proper quail
ications as to property and intelligence,
the right of suffrage" seems to have created
a marked sensation at the North. The
Radical papers generally take occasion to
twit their Democratic neighbors with the
comparison between this progressive"
platform of their Columbia brAhren and
their own, which rests upon the faadamental
principle that "this is schite mans govern
ment," and that none but white men must
ever be allowed to have any voice or vote in
making the laws by which they are govern
ed. The New York Times, however, deals
with the subject in more serious mood.
1t says:
"This declaration of the South Carolina
Democrats strikes us as having decided
interest and Importance beyond its party
" relations. Are the people of the South
" ern States in general prepared to take
" the same ground Will the whites of the
South agree to embody in their State
" constitutions provision giving suffrage
Z" to blacks, wh,n found duly qualified, and
"to exact from them precisely the same
qualifications 'as to property and intelli-
" gence' as are ezacted from the whites
" and no others? IF they are, rould not
(" be si,e for Congress to accept this as sub.
/" stantial basis Of reconstructione Would it
Motif thus accepted by Congress and as
sented to by the South-form much
Z" better basis than the one now laid down
"by existing laws; better in itself, as like
"ly to secure better laws and better ad-
&C ministration of them; and better, especial
ely, as matter of mutual agreement-as
{" one to which both parties give their vol
"untary assent, and with which both are
SC substantially satisfied"
1t is indeed O curious commentary upon
these anxious and well-meant queries of the
Times, that Michigan. State more thor
oughly Radical, perhaps, than any other
State in the Union, and having, moreover,
but few negroes included in her popula-
tion, has just refused, by majority Of
thirty, five thousand votes, to allow the negro
a voice at the ballot-box upon any terms or
conditions whatever.

Dickens as q Poet.

The new interest given to Mr.. Dickens
writings by his own reading, tempts us to
reproduce two of the illustrations of the
metre or rhythm into which his prose falls
in some of its noblest passages The fol-
lowing arrangement of Nelly's Funeral is
from Horne's New Living Age;
| HELLY's FUNERAL.
And now the bell-the bell
| She had so often heard by night and day,
And listened to with solemn pleasure,
Zen as living voice.
| Rung its remorseless toll for her,
| So young, 80 beautiful, so good. :
Decrepit age, and vigorous life,
| And blooming youth, and helpless ln1ancy
Poured forthLon crutches, in the pride of
strength
And health, in thu full blush
OF promise, the mere dawn of life
! To gather round her tomb. Old men were tnere,
Whose eyes were dim
And senses falling
Grandames, who might have died ten years ago,
And still been old-the deaf, the blind, the
lame,
The palsied,
The living dead in many shapes and forms,
To see the closing of this early grave.
What was the death it would shut in,
To that which still could crawl and creep above
it!
Aloag the crowded path they bore her now;
Pure as the new-fallen snow
That covered it; whose day on earth
Had been as heeting.
Under that porch, where she had sat when
In mercy brought her to that peaceful spot,
She passed again, and the old church
Raceived her in its quiet shade.
Throughout the whole of the above only
two unimportant words have been omitted,
in and its; "grandames' has been sub
stituted for "grandmothers, and "e'en"
for "almost." All that remains is exactly
as in the original, not single word trans
posed, and the punctuation the same to a
comma.
The following passage is copied verbatim
from the American Notes; but we have
given to the words the arrangement OF
verse:
NIAdARA.
I think in every quiet season now,
Still do those waters roll and leap, and roar,
ana lu1Ole I'LL Ody lOuS
Still are the rainbows spanning them
A hundred feet below.
Still when the sun is on them, do they shine
And glow like molten gold.
Still when the day i3 gloomy do they fall
Like snow, or seem to crumble away,
Like the front of great chalk cliff,
Or roll adown the rock like dense white smoke.
But always does the mighty stream appear
To die as it comes down,
And ALWAYS from the unfathomable grave
Arises that tremendous ghost OF spray
And mist which is never laid
Which has haunted this place
With the same dread solemnity,
Since darkness brooded on the deep,
and that first food before the deluge--Light
Came rushing on creation at the word OF God.

A Compromise in Louisiana.

The Louisiana election takes place this
week. The contest is strangely mixed
one. There are three tickets out-viz., the
Yarmouth or so-called Black Republican
ticket, the Taliaferro or White Republican,
and the R. King Cutler or nobody's ticket,
styling itself the Union Republican. The
policy Of the Democrats will be, so far as
known, to vote for the Taliaferro ticket,
the Democrats giving up the State to tine
Republicans, and the latter giving the city
of New Orleans to the Democrats. This is
suggestive compromise.
