We hear from every quarter Of
large and constantly increasing
emigration from the older South,
ern States to the extreme South
ern. This emigration is composed
chiefly of negroes, but also oflarge
numbers Of whites from the agri.
cultural districts. The last har-
vests, especially the failure of
corn, have precipitated the revo-
luton which emancipation was
certain to effect in the progress
Of time and events. The laboring
classes IN the older Southern
States have been regularly starved
out. The land owners are scarce.
" able to feed their families much
less negro employees. The latter
are attracted BY the high wages in
the cotton and sugar section. Al
who can raise the means will en-
deaVOr to move southwark. II
they come to work honestly and
Squarely, they viii improve their
condition and be q welcome addi-
ton to our productive population.
But II they do no better than
the many thousands which hang
about the towns and villages and
infest the high roads, and wander
90 vagabands, refusing to work
unless on their own terms, and
then grudgihgly and ineflciently,
and leaving millions Of cotton to
be wasted rather than turn out,
men, women and children, 10 pick
it, they will only increase the great
nuisance from which the South is
now most grievously suffering.
In any event, however, Virginia
and North Carolina will be largely
the gamers by this emigration
The places made vacant, the lands
abandoned by the negroes and the
planters who are too much accus-
to their labor to adapt
themselves 10 a new system, will
be quickly filed by farmers and
laborers from the North and Eu.
who are even now nourin0
into Virginia and the Carolinas to
buy up the cheap lands of these
States and convert them into val.
liable and productive farms. I'm.

very heavens should be black

and political corruption. An end
less epidemic Of dishonesty and
impurity Of every character RACES
there with fearful violence. Such
being true Of the place we earnest
ly urge that the capitol he re.

ed after being thoroughly satura-
ted with disinGeCting fumigants,
that the air OF that vicinity be pu-
or put in q partial condition
Of publication. It would take sew

in an article reviewing the recent

says: 1.-THE election Of Aleorn
and the general success Of the
Republican ticket in Mississippi
signifies more than the defeat Of

Of which his nomination was the
outward and visible sign. 1t indi-
Gates the complete and immediate
restoration Of the State on a basis
that insures Q faithful local gov
eminent, aud cordial harmony be.
tween State and Federal authori-
y. The Mississippi Republicans
acted wisely IL discardlng pro
scFipdon, and they have their re-
ward. In Texas, the contest was
between Republicans, under lead
cry whose devotion to the princi-
pies Of the party could not be
questioned. The triumph Of either
Davis or Hamilton would have
baen equally satisfactory, since
while both are good Republicans,
neither could boast Of q perfect
regular nomination. Both, too,
stood upon q broad, tolerant plat
form. We trust that with Hamil-
ton q the Governor elecs,and with
3 Constitution which meets all just
requirements, Texas will be read
mltted 10 the Union Simultaneous
