A VOICE FROM THE COUNTRY.
PARISH OF LAFoURCHE. La, Oct 27, IS

PARISH OF LAFoURCHE, la Oct. 27, 1877.
Editor Democrat-You may not appreciate to
its fullest extent in the city the enthusiasm we
of the country feel over the movement look ing
to the redemption Of our State by means of i'm
migration There are thousands of acres Of
and adjoining parishes which now lie vacant,
unfenced and unteDanted, yielding the pro-
prie;ors nothing. and a burden to the commu-
nity yhe movement now on foot, as we under
stand its aim, Is to bring into our State good,
honest and industrious people, with or without
a source Of wealth to the old and new citizens,
and at the same time a source of wealth to the
State and nation. We do not propose to include
or exclude any nationality, but to open our
gates to the civilized world and invite the
stranger to enter. partake of our hospitality
and meet the success which his industry on
fertile soil will secure to him. Ii this be the
programme, then we say, 50 be it, and in wish
ing The undertaking unlimited success, we as
sure you that, as far as our parish Is concerned,
there will be % full representation OF our best
and most deeply interested citizens in the con-
ventiOn.
Let me add in conclusion, that we are glad to
see that we have in our State men who have
sufficient enterprise to take this most important
subject OF immigration in hand. 1t was pre-
sum BILE to the ordinary mind that when New
Orleans voted down and repudiated the Pacific
Railroad, that the people would be too dfscour-
aged to undertake any enterprise whatever.
But now that New Orleans seems to be anxious
to tnrn over new leaf and do something In
business way for the common good, may we not
hop5 that all will unite their effors and push
our vital enterprises to a completion alto
gether? Oar motto is, immigration, raj lroad,
levee and postal service With these conducted
the first States of the Union. -
