not attend that school again. His pa.
rents did not sympalhize with him in his
reluctance to 90 to school, and his faith.
er informed him that lie must return this
morning and ask forgiveness of the
teacher for leaving. About cigh,
o'clock one of his sisters, who also at.
tends the school, told him it was time tc
get ready, and hc went to hs room 70,

Immigration.

We corcur heartily il 4 paragraph
nut!SEcd hy Us & few days since, from the
I~,ti.nore Statesman, dcprecatiug the rapid
DIVIDING of our territory with foreign I'M
migrants forced in by extraordinary agen-
cic~. Most'ot these agencies are not cngcn-
dcrcd by public spirit-not prompted by
a1y public necessity. In the main they are
merely intended to benefit individual adj
ycnturers and fill the treasures of steam
boat and railroad companies. We trust it
will be long time before this country feels
the curse of excessive population. The
nation, in justice, ought TO so on in the ma
turaf way to grow and increase. Let peo-
pie come under the desire to better their
condition in the ordinary way. Those who
would thus come would be valuable citi-
zcns. But what sort Of people do the
steamboat and railroad sharks seize up out
OF the great sea Of European pauperlsm!
We are given TO deploring the fact that we
do not here at the South get larger share
Of the importation. But our grief is mis-
placed. We should rather rejoice that We
have nothing TO do with the great bulk of
Isit q great obligation, imposed by super
natural authority, that this country must be
Tiled up in few years? Are we required
to see during our generation that there shall
be no new fields left for exploration and de-
yelopment by posterity! We hope not.
Rather let us hope that new and fertile fields
viii be left for our posterity for ages yet to
come. Rather a thousand.fold that that
should be the case than that our land should
be prematurely crammed with incompatible
and incongruous masses of population, filled
not only with the vices and corruptions of
our own country, but with all the worst
theories and deprayitieS of European orr
G'n, or the yet worse peculiarities, moral
and religious, Of the other parts of the globe.
There is Il great mistake in this idea of
rushing III the currents of population. In
part, IT is Il mania, and in part swindle.
The honest people are enthusiasts. the dis
honest arc rogucS they open Pandora's
box OF evils upoa The nation, and swindle
both parties, immigrant and employer, With
whom they have dealings.
We do not oppose u healthy immigration
Of good people who are able to come. That
sort Of immigration would protect the ma

the kind al should desire.
