The South will never be rich and
prosperous again until we have
a sufficiency of white men to labor
in the place of negroes. No mat
ter what the politics of the country
may be, the negro will never make
q first-class laborer as freedman.
All of US who have any intimate
acquaintance with his character,
know this full well. The over
throw of Radical despotism and
the establishment of the Consti-
tuition, would greatly relieve us, it
is true, but the South can never
boast of actual, permanent pros
perity, until her fields are cultiva.
ted with the white mans skill and
labor. 1t is asked when this will
be? The answer to this question
depends great deal upon our own
action. If we remain in inactivity
and make DO efort to bring itabout,
many long years of trouble and
distress may first pass away.

Mr.. Samuel Edwards, in a let
ter written from Brazil to a friend in
Vicksburg, which we find in the
Telegraph of that city, uses the
following pertinent language :
We have been most wofully de-
ceived by the men who have come
here for the purpose of settling
colonies. I look upon them as a
parcel of spectators, l might say
impostors, and l hope they will
get their reward, if not in this
world, in the other. There are
many here who came here from
their representations, who are now
in a state of restitution and want,
and are compelled to stay, as it is
their only alternative. | can see
nothing but misery staring them
In the face.

You've GREENBAcks. When the
Government first issued the green
back currency, prominent Demo
Gratis all over the country, thinking
themselves wise above their Repub-
lican ncighbors, did all in their
power to discredit this kind of
canenoy, declaring that in short
time they would be as valueless as
the old Continental money was af,
ter the close of the Revolutionary
war But time, which proves all
things, proved them to be false
prophets. The grcenbacks put forth
BY the Republican Government are
still good, and is the first paper cir
culating medium that has been of
the same value all over the United
States--just as good in New Or
leans orSt. Paul as in New York or
Boston.
The Democrats, seeing this,
thought they would try their hand
at making greenbacks. So they
made "young greendacks', and un-
dertook to make them current, and
give them wide circulation. They
took them to New York on the 4th
Of July, in order to give them a
start; but the bankers, brokers and
bond-holders of Wall Street told
them that their young greenbrcks
had no sound basis--that it was
without a solid foundation, and that
1t was as worthless as the "Otd
Confidential money" and that their
attempt to make greenbacks was
humbug and miserable failure
jRst such as set ofquack financiers
might be expected to make
Young greenbacks' is therefore
C.st aside among worthless trash.

A PoLrnCAL HAcK.-SeymOur's
popularity with the people in the
rural districts of New York is by
no means flattering, In 1850 he
was beaten In that State as the Dem
Ocratie candidate for Governor. In
1852 he was elected Governor by
the same party, by 5000 majority
5000 less than was received by Mr.
Church, the candidate on the same
ticket for Lieut.. Governor. In 1854
he was again the candidate for Gov
ernor, aud was beaten by over l0O,,
900 votes. In 1862, when there
was so much discouragement about
the prosecution Of the war, he was
again the Democratic candidate fol
Governor, and was elected, running
far behind the rest of the Demo.
cratic ticket. In 1864 Gov. Sey-
mour was again nominated for Gov
eFnor by the Democratic party, and
was defeated by a larger vote than
Mcclellan Democratic candidate
for President--in that State,
So II will be seen that Seymour
has been the Democratic candidate
for Governor OF New York five
times-twice elected by majorities
below the rest Of his ticket, and
three times beaten by heavy major
titles. He is an old, broken down
political hack, and outside OF the
Wall Street ring, has no strength,
Hehas always belonged to the New
York aristocracy, and never had
any sympathy with the laborlng
classes, or the hard-fisted votes in
The rural districts.
