To Joseph Johnson, Provisional Governor of

"Your several telegrams have been
received. The President of the Uni
ted States cannot recognize the people
of any State as having resumed their
relations of loyalty to the Union that
admit as legal obligations, contracted
<leh£s, created .in their name to pro

(Sigo .ed) W. H. Seward,
Secretary of State,
IMPORTED LABOR.
The employment of Coolies as
field hands in the South, is one of
the mooted questions of the day, and
the securing of means for accom
plishing that end is being diligently
set forth in the light of a necessity
by agricultural and political econo
mists. Labor being the true source
of wealth to a nation, and the ineffic
iency of the system, as it exists at
present in the South, tending to
strengthen every day the convictions
of the people as to the expediency
and wisdom of testing the experi
ment of foreign labor, it is not un.
likely that before the next planting
Beason, we shall see introduced upon
upon our soil, a large supply of la
borers from abroad, of the European
as well as Asiatic stripe.
In some of the West India islands,
where Coolie labor has existed for a
long while, under the apprenticeship
system, hedged in by legislative
provisions, it has been found to re
quire a much smaller outlay of capi
tal than is necessary for the acquisi
tion of slaves. The Coolies are sub
jected to a severe régime of work and
discipline, though they are said not
to stand the climate as well and are
not as good laborers as the African
slaves. They are represented as
naturally mild and docile, and saga
cious withal, and make good house
servants.
Mr. J. Little Smith , of Mobile,
whose letter On Coolie labor we find
in a late number of the N. O. Crcs
cent, after furnishing some very im
portant statistics bearing upon the
subject, closes with the following re
marks :
Whether it be wise to endeavor to
introduce the Chinese, should we be
able to obtain such legislation as will
force all meu to specifically perform
the labor they may contract to do,
depends upon the questions whether
these Chinese have a superior adap
tability to the particular kind of
work to be done in this climate, and
whether this superiority is so great
as to make up for the inferiority of
this race for energy and enterprise,
compared with that of ordinary emi
grants to this country.
My own opinion is, that they
would be able to work the river and
swamp lands, which the Caucasian»
races are not likely to work, but they
will do so only when they are intro
duced iu such numbers as to make
this necessary by the force of com
petition in labor. And the fact that
those whose apprenticeship in Cuba
has expired, do not willingly con
tinue to labor in the fields, tends to
show this, but it does not do so con
clusively ; for all the evidence I have
on the subject leads to the conclusion
that they are very harshly treated on
the plantations of that island."
While we endeavor wisely to in
crease the number of laborers, let us
also strive to increase the produce of
such labor as we now have, and to
induce the people of the United
States in general to allow us to do so,
aud to convince them that it is most
easy to do so, that they have only
not to act at all ; that they have only
to refrain from doing harm both to
themselves and to us ; that they have
only to let us provide lor the most
unrestrained competition of labor
and the employment of capital, and
that capital and labor will so operate,
naturally, and by their own move
ment, in the directions most suitable
to the individual interests of the
capitalists and of the laborers, and
most favorable to the increase of the
national wealth.
Mr. Du Galon , a native of Louisi
ana, who was long engaged in the
cultivation of sugar in this State
with slave labor, and afterwards in
the French Island of Guadaloupe,
with freed labor, under the system
inaugurated by the French Revolu
tion of 1848, favors the N. 0. Pica
yune with some very interesting and
valuable intelligence and views re
lative to the two systems which he
has tried. He testifies that freed la
labor as at present controlled by
French legislation and administra
tion has proved a decided success in
Gaudaloupe and the Isle of Bourbon,
to which colonies his special obser
vation has been limited. In Guada
loupe, the production has been large
ly increased, with a reduced popula
tion ; the sugar exported amounting
to 68,000 hogsheads of 2,000 lbs.
each, against 62,000, the largest crop
raised under the slave system. Other
products, such as coffee and cocoa
which under the old system were en
tirely consumed in the island, are
now exported in considerable quan
tities. In the island of Bourbon, the
production has been more than
doubled under the present system.
In the British West Indies, where
the effects of emancipation have been
most disastrous, and the prospects
for agricultural development continue
to be very gloomy, they have no such
system of free labor; nor has the
element of foreign labor yet been
systematically incorporated among
them. The superior condition of the
French West Indies to that of the
neighboring British colonies, is ac
counted for by Mr. Du Galon in
the twp main facts, first of the large
introduction of Asiatic laborers which
has brought competition to bear upon
( tbe naturally indolent freed negro
and stimulated his industry and emu
lation ; and second, the adoptiop of
a rigid police and vagrant system,
which places the negro between the
alternatives of laboring on the plan
tations or on the public works.
For the first description of labor he
is well paid and liberally provided for,
and allowed a large liberty and many
privileges ; for the second his pay is
a mere trifle, the labor is very severe
and he is subjected to many restraints.
This system is practically enforced in
a very simple manner. The laoorers
are hired by the planter for the season,
a regular roll is kept of them, the
terms of the contract are distinctly set
forth and understood. On every Sun
day, an official visits each plantation
and inspects the weekly report on the
spot of the operations on tbe plantation
If either party, the planter or the la
borer, is found delinquent, this officia]
determines tbe questions at issue
If the laborers have failed in any of
their duties, the official takes them in
custody and sends tbem to work on
the public works. If the planter or
manager has violated any of the
rules, he is subjected to severe penal
ties. Thus a good understanding,
prompt justice and a quick settlement
of all controversies is insured. As
soon as the system was got well in op
eration, planting became an easy and
profitable business, and the condition
of the negroes vastly improved. They
are now becoming a happy, quiet, so
ber and industrious people ; so much
so, that the discipline as originally
introduced has been greatly relaxed,
and their condition is as easy, as free
and contented, as that of any laborers
in the world-far superior to that of the
laborers in the great factories and
workshops in Europe and our North
