IMMIGRATION AND DIRECT
TRADE.

We have before us series of let
tiers in pamphlet form written by
w. Mckay on the interest of our
State especially in regard to immi-
grafton and direct trade with Eu.
rope. The writer insists first upon
the inauguration Of effective imlni-
grafton through legislative agency
as the means of securing direct
trade and the liberation of the South
from commercial vassalage to the
North.
This labor question is really the
source Of oil Of our industrial troub-
les and we will never avoid confu-
sion and unsatisfactory results in our
industrial affairs until that is placed
upon proper basis. The immedi-
ate difficulty is, not that the negro is
unreliable or that we get no more
labor from Europe--but that we do
not properly estimate the situation
in which the revolution Of the LABOR
system has placed us. What we
need is, not any sort Of labor, but
yemaneratipe labor and that alone
we should seek.
Before the war it was estimated
that the culture Of Cotton i. the
South did not yield exceeding three
per cent upon the capital invested.
The negro is now free--not so eff
GENTLY dirccted-his labor less pro-
ductivc and more costly. Is it sur-
prising that Cotton planting on
large scale is being abandoned
throughout the Cotton belts Those
large planters, in the long run,
would de better to give away their
lands.
The truth is We are revoiuiionized
and do not fully realize the situation.
There is no safety for us but in cast
ing of all absolute dependence upon
extraneous labor. The negro is
rapidly segregatiDg--he is leaving
the old Cotton fields OF Georgia, and
the time is upon us when Cotton cul-
ture, with his labor, as system,
has passed away. Il is all right
Both races will be better apart.
Nor should We worry ourselves or
incur useless expense in securing
Legislative expenditures to secure
white labor. That can be better &C,
eomplishsd in. another way. Let
the whole State realize the fact, as
the people of Cobb County have
well illustrated it, that farming tcith
or o.en labor is an agreeable aud
remunerative occupation in Georgia,
and then with eur natural, social and
moral advantages, other labor in
abundance will come to build up the
aggregate wealth Of the State.
TO this complexion it most come
a. last. You cannot buy OF rent
Plantations in Georgia--hire labor
ers, with all The necessary appli-
ances, and make money in the cul-
ture of Cotton. But, you may own
a farm Of moderate extent-you may
cultivate it with profit and increase
its value year after year with your
own labor and direction aud find a
life as pleasant as any the lot OF man
all lords, and when Georgia becomes
dotted all over with farms like these
there will be found no lack of immi-
grants DESTROYS Of initiating our ex-
ample.

Corn EKuskIng in Jefferson Township,
EaEetIe County,. Ohio.


EDS. HERALD:-"How many bushels Of
corn can be husked by one man in day. is
a question often asked, but never satisfac-
torily answered, owing to the difference in
size and variety of the corn husked 1t is
well known that large or average sized
ears are more readily husked than small
ears or nubbins; consequently the true test
Of the expertness of the corn-husker is the
number of ears ne can husk in given
time To test the matter on that basis. on
November Z, 1873, G. Heigh; P. Williams:
D. Drais; and Willie, and Humphrey Jones.
all of Jefferson Township. Fayette County,
the two last named aged 18 and Is years,
undertook to husk ten shocks, II hills
square, of what's known as Clairridge Corn,
grown on black soil, but of late planting,
and owing to the unfavorable season, having
good many nubbins or very small cars in
each shock, each husking two shocks The
contest was conducted as follows: Each
man and boy stood ready by his shock
which was tied as usual-and at given
signal, they commenced and continued
husking until each had husked two shocks,
all timed by the undersigned, Henry Mil@
Ter, who held the watch and called the time
for each as he finished. The number of
ears reckoned for bushel 40:
Garner High husked 5S8 ears in "a min
utes, equal to 1O5 bushels in ten hours
Willie Jones husked 653 ears i'll 29I
minutes, equal to 50 81 bushels in ten
hours.
Humphrey Jones husked 555 ears in 2615
minutes, equal to SO I1-I4 bushels in ten
hours.
Pleasant Williams husked 648 ears in Al
minutes, equal to IS 3-14 bushels in ten
hours.
Dick Drais husked 617 ears in 40 min
etes, equal to GO 1t bushels in ten hours
The three men and oldest boy put up
the fodder in shock and tied each shock.
Garner High weighs 40 pounds; stature.
Ga inches. Humphrey Jones weighs ITO
pounds; stature, 5824 inches.
1t ought to be mentioned that Mr. Dras'
fingers were very sore and tender from pre-
vious husking. Dick can do much better
when in good fix.
These were not picked or selected hands
but happened accidently to be at work in
the same field. A set of picked hands
would make better average showing. As
the corn-husking season is not yet over,
will number of farmers in different parts
of the county get 10 shocks husked by one
man, time him, count the ears and report
to the Herald within two weeks.

- On looking over the subscription list
to the Hearld, at the close of the 18th year
of its existence, we find that there are
Io8 original subscribers to the paper, who
have taken it from the beginning to the end
of the 18th volume. Cur list at the com
mencement was small; some who com
menced with US took the paper for a while
and then discontinued, but after doing with
cut a while, came in and subscribed again
and are still patrons of the Herald but
there are still of the original subscribers
1O8, who NAV be denominated veterans.
- We notice that Messrs. Lydy & Hatch
are selling splendid brand OF stew oyster
for 80 cents per can. They receive and
sell more oysters than all the dealers in the
place. They have regular oyster house
and keep all brands in the mrrket, and are
the only persons in this city who receives
the celebrated BIue-Pont Keg oyster--the
only New FORK oyster that comes here.
- The ID number of the Sabina "Te.e-
gram,'' neatly printed, six column paper
has been received. 1t is edited and pub
lished by S. R. Nickerson, at $3.50 year
in advance. It starts off with fair show
ing Of business advertisements and promis
es to be useful and an interesting institu-
ton for the people of that rich neighbor
hood. Success to the Telegram.
We notice that the majority of the hogs
that are driven to market this season, are
nice brisk travellers, and will fall short a
great way of the weight ola majority of the
hogs marketed during six or seven years
past. The comparatively light crop of corn
and the low price Of pork account for the
light weight Of porkers this year.
- Thos. F. Parrett will sell 2OCO shocks
of corn and other personal property at auc-
tion on the Geo Parrett farm, miles from
Washington, on the Jeffersonville pike, on
Saturday next. Also lot of cattle, hogs
