The persons elected to Coa statute the state Board of immigration interest of the state inuit he 1< tidy to private Effort and speculation. But such a line of conduct by our pc ile i sincerely believe would be and Hope to give some reasons therefor hereafter productive of very injurious consequences to the state and that it would instead of Ever establishing immigration Lead to the very opposite forever checking it. Let us not be blinded by the a successes which Are brought about by paying an emigrants passage and which Many believe to be the Ajudia and Omega of immigration while it is but a Small part of a regular system. That immigration which this society Lias always advocated and which it must advocate now if it wishes really and truly to establish a permanent immigration into Geotgia is based upon the introduction of capital and men of Means of actual and Independent settlers holders of real estate Independent banners and planters such As you Are yourselves. It can never be based upon a a Stem which Aims at bringing Here men under contract who will leave you whenever ill will or interest those two potent factors in Many a nature arc called into play by Vliem against you. Gun Yemen history teaches it in Many modern examples. Look at Brazil at Chili at Russia where the states themselves stepped Forward to bring hired emigrants. Up to this Day though immense sums have been squanders nor ulary established immigration has been founded there. It is feeble languishing and although these states were Well thought of when they first came into the Market for emigrants quite popular As future Homes to Day emigrants from the old countries As anxiously avoid them of they formerly sought them. And then look at the development of a spontaneous free Independent immigration to this country bared upon actual settlements a our Needam Inay by dived a a into four a Stirek each of which ruining a particular line of action to induce it to proceed to a new untried and unknown Stretc and which according to the difficulty in inducing it May be enumerated As follows 1. Independent men Irith Means who emigrate to be More Independent in their new Home than they were in their old one. They Are the most difficult to induce to go to a new untried state and without the state government offers to them sufficient guaranties for their Security personal and material they will never go there. They of course pay All of their among them the most valuable and desirable to a state Are the Farmers of smaller or larger Means who work their lands themselves and with the Aid of their families. They will readily be followed by their Oquain Tanacs and will attract As Many labourers As Raav be required in the neighbourhood where they settled by simply writing for them these Lamers forming a ready Market for labor to our planters and banners on whose lands the actual settler went. Good cheap lands easy Access to Market number and Money value of products and Sal Brity of climate will determine them. They May to drawn in order As to greatest numbers wealth and Thrift As follows 1. From the German Empire including Alsace and lord no. 2. From Denmark. 3. From England. 4. From Switzerland. 5.

He Laid Bare this immense Aud teeming continent hidden for centuries to Christian div ligation just at a time in the worlds history when rid pious and civil strikes Tore All Europe when the Power of rulers caused Liberty to languish More and More and finally entirely to disappear. And to 1 when a everything looked the darkest there arose a new Light a new interpretation of Liberty in the Fiir West Ana the per scouted of All lands went their Way thither to pare of it. The fathers of the revolution Well understood the Mission which god had Given them and it is the duty of their sons to follow in their path. We cannot better show that we understand the grand Mission Given us than by Tow diary inviting and aiding every worthy White immigrant that seeks our shores we thus Honor ourselves and our country.

Do country is done away with. When troubles and disagreements come they do not leave the county but go from one farm to another As our native labourers do and we have secured without risk or expense a Labouring population. 1 learn wit i pleasure that experiments in Jones county with imported labourers whose was advanced have thus far . The instance is too solitary too recent to build any theory upon it let us enquire in Jones county five years hence whether their system unaided by actual settlers has Milt up a free spontaneous immigration Worth the while to talk about secondly m its material aspects it a few facts will make the wifi Terence in value Between actual settlers and Mere labourers Anna rat at once. As state agent of Vitginia i sent a Oon tid Erable number of actual settlers from Europe to that state during 1869 and 1870. I can it be by my official documents and the set cements actually made that each settler brought on an average to Viiginia two thousand on Hundred doll a prussian Money in each besides the >er8onal elects seeds and agricultural implements which 1 calculated to be Worth five Hundred in each Case.

Far be it from me to raise my voice against a remedy so obvious of any Many a necessities which Bidu Oes him to of Evanoo Money so that he May obtain Laborera to till nis Fields. It is perfectly right and proper that a Man Tous help himself if he can but i protest against the Perdido is idea which appears to to spreading More rapidly than people think that that is worthy the name of encouragement of immigration and that there is nothing else to be done. And As Eoli Tous As i am trait Geo Refai should cordially adopt our Biu of 186 As determined should i be an opponent of any move which is to.

Here were All the obstacles in the Way properly understood i might bring my remarks to an end but further expositions Are necessary Ere the importance and soundness of our Bill Are generally Afore cited.

You will hardly believe to what extent these ideas prevail men who otherwise think slowly and car Fally Over a , grow wild when they talk about immigration they have done immense my chief and the first thing we have to do is to Knock such and like id Coli out of our Heads.
