Financially speaking, Washington

NORTHERN MEN IN TIE SOUTH.
Views OF Sensible Northerner.
CHARLESTON, s. c., May 10, 1869.
TO THE EDITOR OF THE NEWS.

i have read With great 6atlslactlOn your aTtl-
Gle in this mornings NEWS headed Northern
men in the South. That the ''old residents
have no SOCIAL intercourse with the Yankees,
may be doubtless is) true in many cases; that
undue prejudice exists is not to be wondered
at, and for the reason mainly described by your
SELF. The writer of this article spent year in
Richmond, whose citizens are supposed to have
q due appreciation OF their own social position,
and although in no instance seeking to enter
the charmed and charming circle, he never
made so many acquaintance in strange place
in 40 short time, nor met more genial and
intelligent people. You say, 'sIf. Northern
man, or any other man, comes to South Caro-
lima, it is because he sees chance of making
money, not tor society,"" That is certainly a
legitimate conclusion. I have travelled from
New York to Saint Paul, from St Louis to
Washington, but in the whole route there
seemed to me less chances for inves' ments for
rapid, ut least certain, returns than along the
route from the last named city to Charleston.
I have spent the last week at Longwood, on
the Peedee River, plantation OF nearly six
thousand acres, which has recently been pur-
chased by New York men for less than two
dollars per acre. Some Of the low lands o.
that magnificent estate are equal in fertility to
the land in New York at two hundred dollars
per acre. The buildings are substantial and
numerous, and, with the fencing, must have
cost the sum paid-certainly would have cost
more at the North. This plantation was sold
through an advertisement, more than year
ago, in the New York Tribune. Iwould say to
Southern men, if you want to sell your estates
advertise in the New York and Charleston pa
pers. How many Northern men do you suP-
pose are in Charleston to-day, perhaps, that
want Just suca property as yours if they knew
where to find it And il you have two planta-
tions, let me advise you 10 sell ono and hold
the other.
think Southern men are too much discour-
aged. Look around you-trayel-go North
West-keep your eyes open. Can you not make
money out of your own lands as we'll as
Yankee 2" As for the prejudice Of the South
and the North, am sick and tired Of reading
about or discussing 1t. The Northern men are
not all "adventurers, carpet-bageers, vermin
nor blacklegs," nor have seen scalping-
knife or tomahawk in all my Southern travel.
II have seen few good rifes.) Ileave Tor
New York in an hour.
Respectfully GEO. NORTH.
