a Strange Node 10 Populate the
SOufh-POOr Logic. n.

EDiroRs LEDGER: In the late Chinese
Labor Convention one Of the speakers
demonstrated that the average popula-
ton, on the square mile, in the Southern
States, was about twelve, while in Europe
it ranges from two hundred and forty to
two hundred and seventy; ergo, he arr
gued, to reduce this disparity, we must
bring Heterogeneous mass Of Chinese
male laborers to this cou ntry, which will
bring the average population from twelve
to thirteen or fourteen, provided we are
able to bring one million of those labor
ers here, in the course of fifty years, at
the immense cost of one hundred millions
of dollars. This an enlightened COM
munity dares to call immigration, while
it fears to give it its proper name At
tempt of Southern planters to INTRODUCES
coolie labor in the United States. We
assert this, defying successful contradic-
ton. 1.-THE same sarnestness would have
been displayed, shortly after the war be-
tween the States, to bring white immi-
grants-no laborers so-called-to the
Southern States, we would now
have added already more than
half million of small landowners
to our population, and the inhabitants of
the South would have been doubled by
this time. The fact is the South has too
many laborers at present; yet, az they
are called, the less the better. Would to
heaven there were not hundredth part
Of them in our fair sunny South. Our
motto is: the less laborers, so-called, the
more intelligent cultivators. As old
Fritz used TO say, the more intelligent
cultivators of the soil the more prosperity
for the country. One million Of farmers
more will produce more cotton, etc, than
four millions of field hands. 1t seems to
us, however, the people will not learn.
there is toe much of prejudice yet Only
few right-minded landowners, we hear,
are working in the right direction, who
are inviting Immigrants to this country
on the most favorable inducements. X.

intention Of the Democrats, Copperheads

demonstrative course of the sdmidistra-
