under conduct Of the Mechanics and Agri.
cultural Fair Association, on tho 2Gth OF
November, 1866 We have the report o
its proceedings, including premium essays
and addresses, and have read it with un-
mingled pleasure, not unfrequently hight.
Ecneu by surprise. One of the orators goes
at large into what lie styles "The causes
which led to Southern subjugaton, aud
the means by which The South may be re
stored to prosperity and powcp." On q
rapid examination Of statements and nrg,,.
ments. we find nothing sail and nothing
omitted that u picked representative o.
Northern opinions could improve. lie ira
ces the conquest ofthe South to the supcri.
on economic policy Of the North-to the
| difference of the industries of tho two sec
tions, from which resulted all tho difference
OF power to makc and maintain the war.
The hope Of restoration hc necessarily put
upon the frank acceptance of her situation
by the South, and such change Of industrial
aud commercial policy as shall mako her
self-supplying and self.supporting. In a
word she must diversity her productions,
agricultural aud manufacturing, after the
model Of the Northorn StNos and she must
cduonte her whole people, white and black,
rich and poor, up TO the pont Of qualifying
them for their respective functions in So
ciety. Moreover she must actively encou-
rage the immigration of foreign mechanics
and mariners, with the double purpose of
making her own manufactures, anu; sccur.
ing The domination Of the white race in the
social and political systems. Ofwhioh last
| named motive we need shy nothing, for we
care nothing about side issue OF this SORT
Only Let them do the right things, and hen
these things will take care Of themselves, and
| of their political aud social issues Altos
| gcther tis with uncommon pleasure that
we find these people growing wise MS well
| as earnest in recons,ructng themselves.
Among the essays read at the fair is n
very brief one OH 'Raising Swine in I.ouis.

Bile report upon the resources Of Louisiana
made TO the Legislature on january lst. may
have come under tho notice of some Of our
| readers.
| The points made by the Judge arc sub.
staniinily these: Owing to the difference OF
climate, hogs arc n. least doubly more pro-
lilic in louisiana than in Ohio or Illinois,
also producing two litters in the year,
against one in the collier North, and bring.
ing them to maturity with great certainty.
Owing TO the same cause they need no hous
ing in the winter, and can find roofs and
grasses, green and fresh, Tor pastura2c all
