The South Needs Labor.

the discussions i'm the Immigration
meeting at Richmond last week took
a wide range, and led to full and free
expression of opinions from all quar-
ters. 1t is we'll that it did so, for some
facts came out that must be considered
by all who Interested themselves III
the subject of immigration. One was
an opinion, earnestly expressed and
warmly enforced, that Virginia, at
least, did not need labor so much as
she needs capital, andthat the intro
duction of labor without capital IS not
q desirable thing. We believe, howev-
er, that this is misapprehendsd
statement. There is no sucn thing as
the introduction of labor without cap
ital into this country. The statistics
of immigration show that on an av-
ersge each immigrant brings with him
eighty dollars, and pauperism amongst
the iaboring class of foreigners who
come to this country Is an almost un-
heard of thing. We will venture to say
thst Virginia cannot show q dozen
paupers amongst this class in the en-
the State. That large amout of free,
moveable cash capital invested ia the
and other Southern states would be
very desirable thing, We do not deny,
but IL will come very slowly, aud not
half rs fast az 1t will If accompanied by
a stream of earnest, industrious, sober
and thrifty foreigners from England.
ScandiDavia and Germany. Let US OF
the South learn vision by the expert
ence of the West. That part of our
country was not first settled by capt.
talists-men Of means-but by the
very class of men of whom we are
speaking. The same means by which
Immigration Ess been directed west
ward will bring 1t soathward, Those
means are earnest, determined, United,
liberal action, money expended, homes
offered on favorable terms, transp0r-
tation arranged on the very most ia
vorable terms, information published
and cent abroad, agents here in New
York, and at the principal ports OF
those countries sending emigrants to
us. These same things We Of the
South must do. Let landowners agree
to sell y portion of their lands to i'm
migrants upon favorable terms. 1t
would be we'll even to give home
steads to those who would drst come.
Put these lands into the hands OF re-
sponsible companies who will engage
to plant colonies upon them, under
proper conditions. Do these things
and more, and there will not pass an
other year until such an influx Of de-
voted laborers, leach bringing his quota
of capital, shall come into the South,
az shall ast0nish the old fogies and
poseum policy popuistionists of the
South. We know one party who
stands ready to guarantee the intro
duction of five Thousand Scsndina-
vians into the South this year, pro-
vided the proper landed arrangements
can be mnde.-1he South.

d ,lacier, having reached 5 it's maximum

!, glacier, having reached it's maximum
!, extension, and the Austral or southern
glacier, its minimum, the latter be-
comes sufficiently loosened from the
grip of it's icy chains by the heat of the
sun and suddenly breaks up as the
northern glacier broke UP in the time
/. flNoah. The instant of its dissolu-
ton will sound the knen of a universal
cataclysm. As soon as the fragments
of, the great, southern ice mountains
are shattered into icebergs, and begin
to moye away faom the, pole, the at
traction of the northern glacial mass
will become predominant. As slight
tipping of q shallow vessel filled with
water will pour its entire contents to
one side, SO the shifting, however
slight, of the earth's centre of gravity
toward the northrn hemisphere will
drag after It, in q mighty torrent,
almost the total mass of the waters.
Their velocity will create hurricane,
accompanied probably by lightning,
thunder, terrific esrthquaies, and vol,
canic eruptions. u The forests of the
southern hemisphere will be stripped
from the land and hurled into new
coal beds. The countless islands of
the Pacific will arise from the sea, and
become the mountain tops OF q new
continent, to be covered with "eternal
SHOWS" until the next ,cyclical deluge
shall submerge them. The Indian
Archipelago will become another vast
plateau Of land, and its higher regions
will be found as full of marine remains
as those of the north are now observed
to be. Australia will be joined to New
Guinea, and thus acquire q new eastern
seaboard one thousand two hundred
miles. long,, between which and. the
present Australian coast still be d wide
valley. Unknown lands will emerge
from the abyss of the southern oceans.
Even the 'sAntarctie continent, which
Captain Wilkes claimed to have found
in 1912, may then become q reality. n
On the other hand the oceans Will
be suddenly poured across the Equator,
if the present speculation be correct,
and submerge. the principal seats of
modern civilization. The northern
hemisphere wAl become ocesmc, rs the
southern will be agAin made habitable
as before the food of Noah. MIR.
Walker thinks that the same fate must
happen to man as in that food, except
in the case of q few. tribes, who may
escape to the highest table lands and
mountain ranges, upOn which they
may survive, only to. fall, as the Pacific
Islanders have done, into b state of
gloomy barbarism.
In this dark picture, however, the
theorist has forgotten 70 tmAkes nllow-t
ance for the power Of science, and for
the appliances of safety which man has
discovered. Where Noah had recourse
to an ark we shall be able, if worst
comes to worst, to use balloons as swell
as steamships or transports, nor is it
likely that any such cataclysm as is
predicted in these speculations could
come quite unforeseen upon the human
race. II it occurs at all, it will find
men forewarned and an old proverb
assures us that ''to be forewarned is to
be fOrearmed."
