a vessel from Bremen having on
board 500 aliens recently arrived at
Charleston, S. c., where the pas
sengers we're landed. This is the first
immigrant movement through a south
Atlantic port in fifty years. There are
numerous opportunities in the south
for thrifty whites, and if part of the
immigration tide can be directed that
way it will prove of much benefit, for
the negro of the southern states is
naturally lazy and can only be pre-
vailed upon to work when the spirit,
or hunger, moves him. Then again,
the greater the white population in the
south the lesser will be the probabili-
ties of race war.
