CO? AIM BIA, S. C. Morning, May 3,1670. Soulliurn Immigration. The London Standard publishes the following circular from Zimmer, General Agent of the Union Laud Company, who is now in London: To tte Editor afr Ok Standard-SIB: Having been appointed general foreign agent bj tho Union Land Company of Pinlade'iphia, organized nuder a charter granted by the Legislature of the State of North Caroline, for the purpose of bringing the vast amounts of vaoant agricultural and mineral lands before the notice of capitalists, emigration sociotics and emigrants in Europe; and having be? come fully identified with the Southern people during many years' residence amongst them, their resources, soil, cli? mate and products, I beg to bring the following tba notice of your readers, Bof oro tho late large plan? wero cultivated by slaves, and this di vision int smaller tracts was never thought of; but- now that the negroes aro baa become out of tho power of the land-owners to ona large neale, uud they aro very desirons, there? their lands into lots of from iifty to IUD acron, to bo sold to emi? grants ab.

rates. We have also large tracts of lands, ranging from 50, 000 io 100,000 acres, in quantity, and from. $3. in These large tracts would become 'sources of great profit to companies who had the coloni? zation of; emigrants in view. Tbe ne Virginia and North Caroiiqa by thousands, and going to tbe estreme- Sou thorn States, where they mbre congenial, to them1 cotton and sugar plan tatio ne than ia tho.

bprdor States; and.thia exo? dus of negroes must be replaced by white emigration: froth notf as lab or of a directly, but as email farmers, will boco cue, iu a few years, fplly identified with tua people and their in? A great many people, mostlj farmers, are now coming daily from thc Northern States, an'disome from Canada, into Virginia and North Carolina, pur chasing lands where they not only find land under cultivation a great dea cheaper than where they came from, bul also a more congenial dim ate, and i longer season for cultivation. The border States offer great induce ments at present to the capitalist, tin miner, mechanio, farmer, and grape cul tivator. From the sea-board to mountains, the whole country is more less rich in minerals, especially coal iron, oopper, zinc, lend, and many othe varieties, including marl and phosphates which are found in great abundauce ii the tide-water regions. A great man; mines are being worked successfully but taken in consideration to tho vas resources of all kinds of minerals, it cai hardly be said that much progress ha yet beeb made. The.

extensive long leafed pine forests in Eastern North Cu rolina are becoming of great commoroin importance, as the chief centre for tut pen ti no and rosin, yet thousands of acre of heavy pine forests can be purchased ranging from $1 to $3 per acre. Cottoi can also.be raised to great advantage Eastern North Carolina, whilst toward the mountains, both in Virginia North and South Carolina, all kinds cereals, too, are raised, the climate an soil being also especially well suited fe the cultivation of the grape and all var eties of choice frdit. In 1868, th? Nort Carolina Railroad Company, alone, shit ped from eleven depots tons dried fruits to Northern markets. Tb cultivation of bops has also attracted a tontion since the war, and it is certai that, ia' a climate where they grow wile" by au improved cultivation, importai results could be achieved. The rivet and sounds along the coast are full of a varieties of fish and game, and natui only needs a little assistance from ma to make it one of the finest countries tho globe.

People, generally, througl out the border States, make sufficient i( during the winter for family uso dum the summer. By a proper investment i small amounts of capital, England an Europe could supply themselves with great deal of the raw material from tl Southern States; for instance, hickoi timber for varieties of tool-handles ar spokes, black oak bark for dyeing ai tanning purposes, all varieties of ore which would becomo profitable if work? up with superior machinery and mech meal skill. Companies formed for tl cultivation of the grape, would find very profitable business. The very lari and numerous water powers of the States also offer great inducements capitalists to develop them for an ii fa turing purposes, especially for cotto Tho cotton-fields being so close at han it will, in the first place, save freight trausport the raw material; at the sar time, having a market for the mah af a tared article in the Southern States. Railroad facilities are good throughoi and uew lines are being daily constru? ed; and tho greatost advantage to settlers should bo the proximity to markets which regulato tho prices et rent for tho country.

This eau bo fained by settling in tho border Stab where tho farmer can always obtaiu York prices for his produce, less freight, which being very low, and distance comparatively small, will not duco tho prico much. Passengers reach New York city from the centro North Carolina and Virginia iu tili) hours, aud oven less; whilst, for a rc donee in a civilized country, and rounded by its advantages, it is better pay a fow dollars more per aero in tin States, than to pay $1.25 per acre HOVO thousand miles from New York, in 1 wild Western Statos, outsido of civili tion, and whore it will cost tho settlers least from five dollars to ten dollars aero, cither to clear tho lund of the ti ber, or to preparo tho prairie sod cultivation; and even after tho prodi is raised and shipped to the Basti market, the large amouut of freight will consumo the grouter portion of its value. Thorufbre: the will eeo the importance bf being near to the largest tdarkote. Tho Southern States have moro or leso assisted, rail road com pnuies.to construct thoir roads, egad arrangements are now being made to sell ont these interests to enable the States to reduce their debts, and should the present be a true indication of the future prosperity of these States, their securi? ties and bonds will soon beut a premium in the monoy markets of tho world.

Fri olean No. 39 Lombard street, E. London, where I also can be addressed, to give any fur? ther information that may bo required. Dr. E.

S. Qalllard. Mn. EDITOR: I would beg, through the medium of your columns, to call tbe at? tention of the medical profession to tho earnest and persistent efforts now being made by Professor E. S.

Gaillard, of the Louisville, Kentucky, Medical College, to furnish them a medical monthly not surpassed by any in tho United States. Prof. Gaillard is the editor and proprie? tor of the Bichmond and Louisville Medical Journal, the largest medical monthly in America; and deserves, at the hands of his medical brethren, great credit for success in the midst of so many disadvantages, in getting up his journal. He solicits subscriptions, as well ns articles on any of the different branches of the profession; Why should wo build up Northern literature and science at the expense of worthy, talent? distinguished and maimed offspring of noble Hon them sires? Dr. Gaillard is a South Carolinian, and graduated with, tho first honors of his class; and while surgeon in the Confederate army, discharging his duty upon tho batte-fiela, lost au arm.

He gave his right arm for our noble.cause. We cannot restore his lost arm; but we ann assist him'in a work whiohis ennobling to tho profession, and to tho whole South. Tell us not that you would rather read Northern journals! Did not the colonists prefer to road English literature? And was not North? ern literature built up by patronage? Il you will help him ho will give you all worth reading in Northern journals; yes, and perhaps, in trans-Atlantic journals, M. D. THE PRELATES PROTEST AGAINST IS following is the docu mont opposing tho present promulgation of the doctrino of Papal fal li lu ty.

which has been mentioned by cable despatches as being presented to the Pope. Tho paper is headed by the name of the most reverend Archbishop Pur cell, of Cincinnati, and signed byBishoj Lynch, of this State, and twonty-sevei other prelates. MOST HOLY FATHER: Humbly prostrate at tho foot of your Holiness, wo mosl earnestly supplicate that the question 01 the definition of tho infallibility of the Sovereign Pontiff as a dogma of faith may not be proposed to the Vaticai Council. Among other reasons of this supplies tion wo beg to adduce only three, whicl appear to be sufficient: 1. Because tho discussion of this qnes tion evidently shows a want of union and especially unanimity among th bishops.

2. Because on account of the ciroum stances in whioh we aro placed in cpun trieB whero heresies not only exist witl impunity, but are dominant, this tion, instead of attracting, would alien ute those whom we seek by ull Christin: means to lead to tho true fold of Christ 3. Because we anticipate endless quot tions will arise which may interfere witl und prevent the work of our ministry and cause the fruits of this Council be lost to those who are not mombers the Holy Catholic Church. Having lui bare our hearts and sincere wo imploro Almighty God to avert a evil from tho Church, and that Ho ma illumine and direct you with His Hoi Spirit.

The weather here is indeed delightful. The warjfa rains of late han forced vege? tation ahead beyond all conception; and in this latitude after the middle of April, thero is li ttl danger of frosts to effect the most delicate plants. There is more activity among farmers this spring than any time since the war. The land for miles around "Washington is sandy loam, of easy cultivation, and well adapted to gardening and fruit-growing. I learn from real estate agents and othors that they are receiving many letters from people iu the di floren Northern States, I inquiring after lands, and tho prospects are favorable for a large emigration South during the oomiug seneon.

Business before Congress is progress? ing slowly; the diversity of opinions of I the members on various questions com? ing before thom, is the cause of the de I ley. Formerly tho most of the discus? sion on bills was couQued to the mem? bers of their respective committees in committee But lately it would seem that committees wore only made a con? venience to delay business. The financial question is still being discussed in eommittee, in newspapers and on the streets. The whole country, it seems, is making itself interested ou this question. The President and Se? cretary are quizzed as to their views on eaob of the numerous suggestions made by the different members of Congress.

Thero are no two who exactly agree upon a plan to solve conclusively the great financial problem. Every member is interested, muny of them selfishly so. They arc daily in receipt of letters from some of. their constituents, complaining of the delay. One, who is, by tho way, a largo manufacturer, in writing to his member, says: "Settle the financial question at once.

The passage of the worst kind of bill, is far preferable to this continual talk without definite re? sults." The finding bill was debated at length yesterday iu committee, without definite results; butsomoof the membors of the committee think that perhaps they may agree upon something before tho weok closes. Tho tariff question is assuming gigantic proportions. As straws indi? cate which way tho wind blows, just sc does tho votes of members on the tarifi bill, generally, decide whether they arc for or against tho free trade principles, or whether they aro opposed to thc theory of a high protective tariff. While members from the West and South ol both parties, feol that unless they in thc main oppose any tariff above a revenue ono thoir bread is dough, mauy of thc Republicans aro afraid to vote with theil common enemy, the Democrats, for feai that it might indicato affiliation wit! them. Late letters aud telegrams from Geor gia receiveel here indicato that the poo pie are anxious for immediate recon struction in some form or other; ovor I preferring tho Senate military bill, whicl put tho State under military rule nnti next December, to an indefinite continu ance of tho Bullock administration.

I is reported, from very good authority that iu oaso the Senate bill passes tin House, the President will veto it. Tb President has expressed himself to mom bers, calling on him, that ho was exceed ingly anxious to soe the reconstruction Georgia closed up by bor representation in Congress. Colonel Casey, of the War Depart ment, it seems, from reports in th newspapers, has testified before th Committee on Appropriations that th present style of forts are superior to au iron-clad system. Is Colonel Casey vcr familiar with modern artillery oxperi men ts? Is he not aware than an Englis war ship, earryiug a tou-iuch Armstron rifle gun, could send shot and she through aud through tho flimsy walli constituting the ramparts of Fortres Monroe, our most important fort? should bo remembered that its walls ar but a series of casemates, some of whic constitute tho powder magazine, single ten-inch incendiary shell, aime at the powder magazine, would explocl and make a practical breach, and fill tho canal or moat with bodies so c-ffocti ally ns to enable nu invading forco walk iu dry shod within five minuit after tho explosion. Aud as for tl water battery, which is supposed to gil great protootion to the fort from the sc side, it could lie entirely demolished witl iu au hour nt a distance of 2,000 feot.

I brick arches tumble down by tho mei concussion of tho firing of tho ten-inc smooth boro gnu; and as for tho ramparts, no gun can bo fired at a angle of 32 degrees moro than a fe times, for tho walls will bulgo outward Tho twelve-inch riflo guu, weighii 50,005 pounds, exclusive of its earring I was fired but a few times at that angl when it was discovered that tho wal were bulging outwards, and the gun removed from that quarter for good, is truo that tho fiftoon-ioch guns ha1 been fired many times nt low olevatioi without doing damago; but tho com tions aro changed wheu long ranges a to be obtained, as high augles aro uccc sary. A twelvo-iucb rifle shot, Gi pounds in weight, fired with a charge 75 pounds, moving with velocity about 1,200 feet per second, will pen trate pounded clay or saud at distau of thirty-five feet eight inches, or itw destroy a solid granite wall, composed solid blocks of 3,000 pounds in weigh thirty feet iu hoight, nine foot thick 1 six foot wide, when lirod from a distan of 200 yards. Where is tho masonr composing any fortiu the United State which will withstand tho action of deru artillery? If Coluuel Casey dc not know tho defenceless stale o' tl country, it is time thnt Congicss did. Gou. Eaton, tho Commissioner of Ed catiou, has recontly had prepared in 1 office, a number of tablos of au excec ingly interesting character; showing I relation of education to the revenues the country, the receipt from postal eourcea, ana tho distribution of patenta to inventors.

Also, the distribution of persons engaged in the learned profes? sions, and the issue and: of newspapers and periodicals, and finally, comparing tho number of. voters unable to read and write'; With the political ma? jorities which determined the elections, in all the States and in sections in 18G0 and 1868. These tables are necessarily based upon the censnsof 18G0, and they show conclusively, that, as Secretary Boutwell said many years ngo iu Massa? chusetts-tho condition of the schools indicate ths condition of the country. The State which gives tho least rovenne, per capita, (either of internal revenue or postal receipts,) have the greatest por ceutage of illiteracy. Thirty-nine ont of every 100 grown persons in Tennes? see, aro illiterate.

In Ohio, only six out of every 100. The former contributed in 1860, only 14 conts, per capita, to sup? port the mail service, the latter 23 cents. Tho former, in 1869, paid $1.12 per head to the Internal Revenue Department, the latter, $6.87, or Obio pays more than six times ns much as Tennesseo, toward supporting the Government and paying the national debt. Yet Tennessee has tho largest area, tho best soil, olimato and minorai resources, and was admitted first into the Union. Tho contrasts are still greater between other States, where ignorance of citizens prevails to a greater extent on the one side and intelligence on the other.

The political table shows that in seventeen States in 1860, tho pluralities or majorities wero less than tho number of illiteinto votes. The re? ceipt of the number of illiterate votes to-day over the popular voto (191,275) which elected Mr. Lincoln, are 1,043, 589, not counting tho increase for tho last ten yours. President Grant's majo? rity was 309,722 less by 1.22G.142 than tho number of adult men who were iu I860 unable to read and write. Another feature of tho tables shows that the per? sons who are able to read and write in tho South, read much less of tho current literature of the day tban those in the North.

lu several of the States South, tho number of voters who cannot read their ballots aro greater than those who can. These tables will soon be published in somo form for general information, but it is not yet decided how. The General Land Office has just re? ceived returns of the survey of six town? ships in Nebraska, and is informed that these lands, for tho most part, uro first rate soil, with a gently rolling surface, well watered by small streams. As these lands are near tbo liue of the Pacific Railroad, a large influx of settlers may be relied upon at an early day. Portions of Nebraska offer splendid inducements to tbo agriculturalist and grazier, and mnuy availed themselves the past year of tho advantages niforded by the homestead and pre-emption laws to ob? tain home in this new State.

Also, submitted to tho Secretary of tho Inte? rior, for approval, list No. 1, embracing 30,928 acres, as lands selected in the Ore? gon City district, Oregon, and enuring to said State under the Act of Congress ol July 1, 18GG, to aid iu tho construc? tion of a military road from Corvallis to tho Acquima Bay, in said State.
