Practical Immigration.


From w. T. Hatch, of Minneapolis,
Minn--a gentleman whose efforts in
advertising through his section the at
fractions OF the South, we have had fire.
quent occasion to notice hCTetoluTe-we
are In receipt of a circular stating that
lac has now on his books names of over
5000 persons, scattered over twenty
States, Canada and many in Europe,
who apply for documents relative to the
Southern States, and this list is increas-
ing from fifty To a hundred day. At the
rate that names are coming in, he eX-
poets soon to have listOf 1904 900 persons
anxious to change their location to a
milder climate. Mr.. Hatch writes:
This may seem incredible, but it Is,
nevertheless, true. The results up to
this time have astonished all who have
become conversant with them. The
truth is, the times were ripe for such "A

\ friend OF ours, who has recently
visited our sister city Pulaski, gives US
a glowing description OF the progress
and prospects OF that flOuIishiUg place
The courthouse and square, and the
buildings Oh the square, and on the
streets leading from the square are
large, cOmmOdi0us, and built in the lat
tsJ and most improved style. The
courtyard is surrounded by tasty
substantial iron fence, and ornamental
trees and grass which add great beauty,
as well as comfort, 10 the place. Bust
ness, in all departments, seemed to be
brisk. The wheat crop OF Giles was
very large, aud the farmers saved it
before the rainy season set in. One OF
the most attractive and beautiful spots
around Pulaski, are the heights, about
two miles from the city. There are over
twenty-five acres in the choicest varie-
ties OF grape vines, Ives Seedlings,
Concord, Hartford, Prolific, and others.
The grapes are just beginning 10 ripcn,
and the crop, though not iull one,
promises a very handsome yield. The
view OF the surrounding hills and val
legs, from the vineyard, is not only
beautiful, but approaches the sublime.
The property is now owned by Gov.
John G. Brown, Col. Scion +. Rose,
and DR.. SumpUer. Our friend gave us
such Il description of the winc-cellar,
that our mouths watered for a TASTE
Columbia journal.
Col. Upshaw, the writer OF the above
paragraph, was in Pulaski the same
day his paper reached us. We did not
learn whether he got a taste from that
Wine-ceilaI' or net. II not the proprie-
tors are hereby authorized and required
To send him a sample forthwith, with
their compliments and ours.

We meet irrespective Of party or of for.

/ preston Of our sentiments touching the re.
cent death of Senator johnson. IL is moi
the purpose OF meetings like this to give ouI
individual sanction or collective appreciation
to the political or personal views Of the re-
markable citizen whose death has been an
nounced.
Under our system of government it is tn,
peculiar right aud greatest boast Of oul
couutrymen, that We enjoy il the fullest
manner perfect freedom in our political aud
religious opinions. We have long eulovet
these inestImable rights and we trust they
may be handed down to remote pCsterity.
This idea has recently been carried farther
even than this. Men have been tolerated
/ in taking up arms aud waging "a mighty
war in defence of what they conceived "a
be sound and correct principles. The two
c0ptending parties IN the late war are fast
yielding TO tho general desire for "a return
OF good feeling, and but few days ago q
memorable and most pleasing illustration
I OF this was manifested.
General Robert +. Lee, who was the great
champion and loader Of the Southern forces

own country man of the South. but his ad-
versares of the north had forgiven him, and
all alike united IN doing honor TO his manly
and VirtuoUs conduct. \ few days ago that
people who live under the shadows of old
FAunieul Hall, the cradle of American Lib

ny looking upon the monumental glory OF
cid Bunker Hin, paid just and becoming
respect and honor 10 the distinguished rel
auve OF NirgiutE'S great son, as lac marched
through the streets of Boston.
Many Of those present can remember the
great political battles between General
jackson and Henry Clay, the one beloved
son Of Tennessee, the other the glory OF
Kentucky; and how, when that angel OF
death took them from our midst, ner Of
all political parties. Joined together in pay

What is Wheat Going to DO?

We confess. we do not know. On
Thursday last it ran to $l.i5 in Nash
Vile, and on Monday fell to $l.3J,
though northern markets are firm. The
ruling figure here on Tuesday was $l.25,
though we saw one lot sold at $l.30.
Yesterday the ruling price was $l.20.
Whether it will rise or tall we are not
going to venture a prediction. We
shall only add, THAI farmers can very
well afford to sell at present figures.
