Col John A. W-ge^er, Sii^is Gcra
?usSioner of Immigration, has issued
. circular, io which he states that
arrangements have been made in
Bremen and Liverpool to send pas?
sengers to Charleston on the credit
of accepted orders, to be paid on
their arrivai, if sufficient numbers
offer. . These orders,' he says,'should
?tate the amourit of wagee the planter
is willing to pay. He indicates that
$150 per year for males and 9100 for
females, with board and lodging, is
considered reasonable. For uniform?
ity and convenience, Gol. Wagoner
publishes the following form for a
eon tract and order:
SOOTH CAROLINA, tho 186
The Commissioner of Immigration
is hereby requested and authorized
to engage and contract for me and in
my behalf, for years'-service,
male, laborers, or . .and
female laborers, or . And I
do hereby bind myself, and my heirs
and assigns, to furnish them, during
their said term of eorvico, sufficient
good and wholesomo board and
comfortable lodgings, and to pay
them in wages, for the males,
dollars per year, and. for the females
dollars per year respectively;
also to advance their passage money,
at tho rate of twenty-eight dollars in
gold per head, to be paid on their
arrival, and the same to bo deducted
from their first year's wages respect?
ively.
Signed and soaled as above.
WlTOESS- J SBA*. I
To in Charleston.
On the arrival in the port of Charles?
ton of male laborers end
female laborers, contracted for my
service, please pay to the order of
the Commissioner of Immigration
dollars in gold, and oharge,
without further advice, to
Yours respectfully,
(Date as above.)
.Tho price of passage for each im?
migrant, in gold, will be about $28,
to be deducted from tbe first year's
earnings. The Commissioner makes
some statements and suggestions
worthy of the consideration of those
interested. In regard to the lots or
portions of lands to offer for salo, to
immigrants, Col. Wagoner says:
"In regard to the Bale of lands, I
may embrace this opportunity to say
that several places have already been
sold, but that the general complaint
and objection, is, that tho pinces
offered are too extensive and beyond
the reach of the small farmer. Our
people had better make up their
mind to lay off their lands in small
tracts, say from CO to 200 acres, and
by retailing alternate sections if they
wish, they could, perhaps, afford to
sell more reasonably, in view of the
increasing value of what they retain,
consequent upon the settlement of
what they. sell. And in offering
places for registry, a full descrip?
tion, together with an explicit state?
ment of price and conditions, should
always be sent; this recommendation
applies also to places for rent oi
lease. "
The Commissioner states a fact thal
we are sorry to hear of, viz : that ir
numerous instances the planters ar?
disheartened with their freed labor
and are nfforing their plantations foi
sale on that account. He advice:
them to go on with the cultivation o
their lands, to the extent of thei:
means; and that it will not be wisi
to discontinue their industrial opera
tiona in view of a speedy transfer o
their property.
Of the prospects of the success o
the schemes which have been inau
gurated to procure foreign labor, h
says:
"It affords me satisfaction to b
able to say, that our prospects o
success in this measure of immigra
tion may bo deemed very good; w
have met with irritating inoonveni
enees, and we have to oontem
against very great difficulties, c
which onr political misfortunes an
the supineness of our own people ar
the most important. But the happ
geographical position of our State
otu* great natural resources, and th
fair and generous welcome that ou
laws have promised the stranger, ai
beginning to exercise a favorable ii
fluonce, and will ere long have effet
tivo results. Onr people must, hov
S7ST, dc th?ix pu*!, ; nu one shoui
wait for his neighbor, all should a]
prec?ate the duty of contributing t
what is really a publio necessity, an
then there can bo no fail."
Wo commend these views to ot
planters. They must stir up then
selves, if they dosiro to r?cup?rai
their wasted means and energies, ac
not give way to despondency ar
despair on account of the disappoic
ment of tho present.
Rio r IN PIC&ENS DteTBtor. - On
Saturday night last, A fatal difficulty
occurred at Perry ville, in Pickens
District, , near the Blue ?vi?ge Rail?
road. It appears that a Loyal League
Association was holding a meeting in
the neighborltood?> when a young
white man, named Smith, a resident
of Walhalla, attempted' to effect an
entrance to the building, but wes
prevented by the armed guard, or
sentinel. The disturbance caused
the leaguers (to the number of fully
-SOO-all colored-) to, rush out.
Smith immediately rant away, and
sought ref ugo in a house4 short dis?
tance off, where there was a white
debating society. The negroes, all
o? whom were srmsu wivu uiuuacw
and pistols, surrounded tho house,
and commenced an attack with their
fire-ar ms on the inmates-all of
whom were unarmed. One t of the
shots took effect on a man named
Hunnioutt, which proved fatal. The
others escaped from the building
with sundry bruises. Tho negroes
continued the riot during the night,
and on Sunday morning were pil?
laging indiscriminately. A message
was sent to Colonel Smith, at Ander?
son, who immediately proceeded to
the scene with a sufficient force. By
the time he arrived-Monday, at 1 a.
m.-the excitement had subsided.
Colonel Smith remained until lato in
the day, but finding everything quiet,
returned to Anderson. It is high
time that steps Bbonld be taken by
the military to put a stop to these
armed meetings. Tbero is a general
opinion, that these meotiugs, al?
though professing to be political, are
more of c. military character.
CHARLESTON JURIES.-At tho open?
ing of the District Court in Charles?
ton, speaking of the venire of jurors
which were drawn last term of the
Court, Judgo Logan said:
"It is not, of course, such a venire
as is prescribed by the laws of the
State. But the conviction of my
mind at the time that I directed the
draft was, that no such jury panel as
the laws of the State prescribes would
be permitted by tho military power
then, as it now is, the dominant
power. The late order concerning
juries, by the successor of General
Sickles, only confirms me in that
opinion.
"The venire, os it now stands, has
been assented to by the Ceneral
Commanding, with tho understand?
ing, however, that the right of chal?
lenge for non-registration shall be
reserved to all parties."
The Charleston Courier calls atten?
tion to the second clause of the juror
order, which reads: ,
"2. It shall be sufficient ground of
challenge to the competency of any
person drawn as a juror, that ho bas
not been duly registered as a voter.
Such right of challenge may bo
exercised in behalf of the people, or
of the accused in all criminul pro?
ceedings, and by either party in all
civil actions and proceedings. "
From which tho Courier argues
that tho section does not disqualify,
but merely subjects the juror to
challenge.
In the United States District
Court, in Charleston, in the case of
the United States vs. Wm. Keenan, a
white boy, for passing counterfeit
fractional currency, J. Barrett Co?
hen, Esq., counsel for the prisoner,
challenged the array-?. e., tho whole
jury-on the ground that the said
jury was not drawn in conformity
with the laws of the United States.
No decision was announced. The
point was ably argued by counsel on
both sides.
SQUINTING AT TROTH.-The Nation
newspaper boldly calls for a 4 'frank
avowal" that the Congressional ma?
jority have been acting unconstitu?
tionally, and mean to keep on so
aeting. The New York Times timidly
hints that such on avowal "comes
very near the truth," which is about
os much "frankness" as we can ex?
pect from anybody but Thud. Stevens.
POSTAL IRREGULARITIES.-We are
gratified to announce that we have
received the assurance of our worthy
?iostmaster, who hos just returned
rom a Northern trip, that the irre
gularities in the mail delivery in this
tate, of trii?oVi rr.** hcivO Tvit?i reason
complained so often recently, will be
made the subject of his personal at?
tention. For this purpose, ho will
leave the city in a few days for a
general tour through his department,
and we have no doubt that by the
agenoy of his experience and energy
a thorough and immediato reform
will be instituted.

IN MEMORIAM.
Mrs. ELLEN V. McLAUCHLIX, wife of
Donald McLauchlin, and eldoet daughter
of Mr. and Mrs. John H. Heise, departed
this lifo in Cc il mn bi a, S. C., on Sunday,
October (>, 18(17, aged twenty-eight years,
eloven months and six days, after an ill?
ness of but a fow days, in bright prospect
of a glorious immortality:
"Early, bright, transient, chasto as morn?
ing dew,
She lied, was exhaled, and went to Hea?
ven." j
When tho agod die, and aro borne to-the
tomb by sorrowing and atllictod friends,
thc event, although sufliciontly depress?
ing, and as sundering ties and associations
of long cont1 nuance, yet the survivors
have consolation in the reflection that, ac?
cording to all observance, man has at best
but three-score years and ton; but when
tho young aro removed to an car]}- grave,
and tho clods of the valley hide away from
loving eyes and hearts those on whom wo
have bestowed our doop affections and
most ai llent hopes, then is it that, with an
overwhelming, sad, doop and pungent
affliction, wu would Fain question tho pro?
vidence of God which smites us, and mur?
mur in and at our loss:
"Hut, shall not tho Judge of earth do
right?"
Ellen was tho particular bright luminary
in tho family household of which shu was
so dear a member. As a wife, affectionate,
exemplary and prudent beyond ber years;
as a (laughter, dutiful in all her associa?
tions with her parents; as a sister, tho
cheerful associate and companion; as a
friend, sincere, true and conliding, and as
a christian, strong in faith and hope. Sho
has passed away, however, to an early
grave, finished her course, for God lias
taken her.
"Be still, and know that I am God."
"Leaves have their time to fall,
And flowers to fade;
And buds to wither at the North-wind's
blnat,
And stars to set; but thou!
Thou hast all seasons for thine own, oh
death!''
Thus has been severed tho dear associa?
tions and sweet remembrances of wife,
daughter, sister, friend and christian as?
sociate:
"Oh, fondor ties.
Close twisted with the fibres of the heart!
Which broken, break them, and druin off
tho soul
Of human joy. When such frionds part
'Tis the Saviour dies."
