want labor relieved from the unnecessary
burdens which weigh it down. In word,
we want that prosperity for our people
which is the natural fruit of the institu-
tions of our fathers. To accomplish this,
we offer many inducements to industrious,
Intelligent and thrifty emigrants to settle
here. The soil and salubrity of climate
are important considerations. The soil is
productive; wheat, rye, corn, oats, potatoes,
Tobacco, cotton, the grasses, fruit and veg
aetables of all kinds grow finely. Besides
these, barley and hops flourish here, and
There is reason to believe that the grape

Hands can be purchased at low figures but
! it will be otherwise when the tide of emf.
grafton sets in this direction.
There are two erroneous Impressions
which have conspired to deter foreigners,
! az we'll as Northern men from settling and
making investments in our State First, in
relation to climate. The climate OF North
ECarolina has been regarded as lnsalubri'
] ous IS a region infested with malignant
5feYers and malarious diseases The idea
mas doubtless originated from the reports
sof travellers visiting the sT,.mpy districts
bordering the sea coast Of the State. AS
Enothing can be more erroneous. No por-
9tion of our county lying east of the Rocky
! Mountains surpasses this part of our State
Gin piiduess and salubrity CT climate, or In
Sbeauty and variety of scenery.
4 The second erroneous impression relates
q 20 thu social status Of NOrtherners who
smay become citizens OF our State. 1t Is
Thought that they would be excluded from
IS Gal intercourse with the intelligent com
1murity of the South. This impression has
D grown up since the war, and demands spe-
g la teutlOn.
] For my own part I am bold to declare
: that apart from the restrictions imposed
4by poverty, they would be received with
he same generous and cordial hospitality
which formerly characterized Southern So
7cIety. The aoeU 6ehaucd Northern man can
scome heie and express his sentiments and
opinions as freely as he can in New Eng
