have always been, and am still, one
of the best friends the negro can claim
in the position and capacity in which
God designed him-that of an inferior
to the white race. This I nm willing to
be tested by the evidence of my former
slaves. In order to make me his friend
in the radical sense, it devolves upon his
party to prove the converse of my pro-
position. and no longer appeal to the
sympathies of our race, in order to hide
his faults.
And now for the points for which
1 have briefly endeavored to prepare
your readers. Immigration as now in
stituted cannot be q success for the pre-.
sent generation. The great difficulty is,
that the organizations as uow constituted
compel every man who wishes to pro-
cure emigrant labor, to understand, as
we'll as undergo, either all, or Mt least
o part of its risks, Of losses or gains.
This plan is confining it at once to the
leading and intelligent minds of the
people of the South. The immigrant
should be placed at every mans door, so
that when he is in need of labor-the
demand for which Is constantly increas-
ing-he can employ him, giving to
parties such bonus as would be remu-
nerating for the great convenience. My
proposition is, that the men of South
Carolina, who comprehend fully the
necessity of moving in this matter, form
a joint stock company OF, say Si0, $40,
$50 or even $I00 per share. Organize q

central point. perhaps Columbia would
do; and snb-burcaus at each village in
the State; let all arrivals first report at
the central bureau, and be distributed
according to the various demands of the
sub-bureaus throughout the State.
Whenever an Immigrant arrives, his name,
age and birthplace, as we'll as his trade
or occupation. as we'll as letters of refer
ence or recommendation, should be
duly recorded for future reference. The
farmer or planter applying for laborer,
has only to call for the kind of laborer,
and the clerks at each bureau, by refer
ring to the books, can send him the sort
of persons he desires; he, the farmer or
planter, paying oil expenses incurred by
the bureau, rs we'll as bonus for ex-
penses and profits to stockholders
There might be an experimental farm
established in the vicinity of each bu-
reau, where these immigrant laborers
could be profitably employed until
called for; and should any remain on
hand during the summer months, they
could be directed in farm work, 80 as to
make and harvest full crop Agents

land, France, Holland. Sweden and
Norway, Germany and Italy; and I am
told by persons who have recently re-
turned from transatlantic countries,
that great numbers could be procured
by only securing them home and en-
ployment. 1 have seen this system
working admirably inBParis, in getting
employment for laborers aud domestics
in every capacity; there it has proven
not only success, but of mutual benefit
and profit to all parties. I cannot, for
one moment, see how it could be ma
naged in those large European cities in
any other way. Some ten or twelve
years ago the same system was COM
menced in New York city.
The distributing bureau for the great
Northwestern States is Castle Garden,
in New York city. We never will sue
ceed to any extent until we adopt the
Joint stock company plan, and no longer
trust to the general intelligence of the
people upon this matter. The immi-
grant desires to come; give him the
means; place him at the door of those
pleading for labor; secure god labor by
references; make their contracts, and all
will move on harmoniously, and South
Carolina and the whole South will no
