How different the condition Of things u INC
South Here, the face of the country wears Inc
aspect Of premature old age and decay. No nm
proyement is seen going on, nothing IL done Tor
posteritv, no man thinks of any thing beyond the
present moment. Our lands are yearly tasked to
their utmost capacity of production, and, when ex-
hansted, are abandoned for the youthful West.
Because Nature has been so prodigalio us, we seem
TO think it nnnece safv TO do any thing for our
selves. The industry and skill that have CONVEX
into a garden, in the genial climate and fertile
soil of the South. would create almost a paradise.
Our natural advantages are among the greatest
with which Prov dence has blessed mank ind but
we lack the spirit To enjoy and improve them.
The rich ore is beneath feet, yet we dig not
foi IT, The Golden fruit hangs from the bongh,
and we lili not our hands to gather it.. The cask
81 dclicions liquor is before our eyes bn, we are
too law even to breach IT, In thinking, in writing,
and in talking. we are equal 10 any people on the
face Of ,I, earth; but do nothing but think,
write and talk.
