To-day Governor Hampton will review
the militia at Anderson Court House.
We presume he and other distinguished
men will address the multitudes that will
gather there TO meet him and greet him.
While it would be premature in our peo-
pie and unjnst TO Hampton to look OIL him
rs candidate for reelection, 1t is emil
,uently wise and well-timed in them to
desire TO see him and bear him at the
close Of his term Of Office: and equally
right and fitting in him to come before his
people and address, them on matters of
Vital Importance to them The citizens
of AbbeFille'C County are therefore graft
fed at the prospect OF hearing the Cover
;nor's voice on Friday. They will meet
him in thousands Us they did in 10 when
he came hither on his magnificent march
from the mountains to the ses. White
and block will come before him as they
did then but with happily altered feel
ings. 'fhsE they met him with hearts
full Of enthusiastic hope which was all
the more ehger because they felt they
were on the brink of despair; now they
meet him with hearts full of gratitude for
the past and brighter hopes for tho flu
ture.' Then they met him as their chosen
leader; the'one man among all the sons
of the State whom their representatives
had singled out as the man that all our
people in all sections and of both RACES
would rally around and follow; now they
meet him with theassured confidence that
he has proved himself worthy of the trust
they rcposcd in him. Then they met

immigration.

We published last week All Interesting
paper from the prolific pen of u repre-
sentative, Hon. d. w. Aiken, on the sub
iect of Immigration. He recouiits how
an association has been formed in WASH
inrton for promoting Southern immigra-
ton and states that a prospecting COM
mittce of three will soon be sent hitheron
4 O u of inspection, such a project should
commend itself to every land owner IN
the South. In Abbeville county we have
among our planters many men OF many
acres if not of much money II to them
all such undertakings naturally look lor
support. If they cannot give to lmnil-
grafton associations much silver or gold,
such "a they have they might easily give
---a few of their superfluous acres. Thou
sand OF acres of good land are lying out
in the unproductive form of u~nfenced,
untitled, uncared-for,. unused "old field
In the hands of frugal, thrifty foreigners,
sucb lands would soon become like gar
dens. Atprcsent they are like a waste
bowling wilderness; in the hands OF
Woodworking, economical Germans,
Poles, French or Italians, not to speak OF
the British, they would blossom as the
rose. Those immigrants come from coun-
tries where q farmer frequently pays four
or five times as much for a years rent per
ocro NJ would here give him fec simple
for the same. "a little farm wcll TILED
is their ideal of husbandry. And if our
planters, owners of thousands Of broad
acres, would only offer as inducements to
them freeholds of twenty to fifty acres
the consequent improvement in the value
Of all real estate would prove the gene
rous gift to have boon a good invest
