The South must not, cannot expect

Of the North, but an undymg hatred t0,
her domestic institutions, aud q never

imfsame the elements Of her soricty.
By our trade, "a now carried on
through northern ports, the SonihI
pays q tribute to Il section Of country
Of at least 90 per cent. upon all her
natural resources, which will enable
the abolItlonlsts TO carry on their no
Garious schemes. Should the South
ever begin to do her own business in
dependent of the North, the strongest
weapon will be wrestcd from their
hands by which they would crush the
whole South. The day OF rctrlbutlon
is fast rolling round, when the contest
must be decided by dmt Of physical
force. Let the South then be awake
to her interest-let her drop the cur
tain that will shield her from base
and ignom'nlous dependence upon .
people who have no common sympa-
thy, aud who are her most deadly en-
emics, although bound by the ties +
national brotherhood.
Texas, the land of the single star, is
cf the SouIh-her every tic OF consan-
gulnity and of interest is OF the South
every law of nature points her out
as sister from whom we cannot be
separated. II she can be united to
our republic, the South can MAINTAIN
herself against all internal aggrcSSions
If she cannot be annexed 10 us, we
shall ultimately have to beg TO be uni
ted to her. A union is the order Of
nature, and every innovation upon
Southern interests, will tend to bring
us nearer together. The line that Sc
riarates the slave-holding from the non
slave-hclding States, Is every day be-
coming more and more distinct; where
as that between the South and Texas
is well nigh eflaccd.

We nonot desire to be considered
alarmists, but coming events cast their
shadows BEFORE and the result is
stamped upon the history Of the pre-
sent and past. It's time the South
1 should begin to cast about and learn
her duty to herself. LEI every man
