Let us suppose this capital. owing to
the amount of new lands brought under
cultivation, and the growth of the slave
population, to have been augmented in
1910 to 100000. In that year, ac-
cording TO the census, the entire cotton
product was worth S85, 100000; near IL
per cent. on the capital. If we disengage
the slaves from the capital, and set this
down at 100000, 700. The proceeds Of il
will be, % 3-4 per cent. The number OF
hands employed, we may calculate al
E750,000.
In 1887, the capital employment in
manufactures 10 the single State OF Massa-
chusetis. was S51.351,761. The num-
Der of hands employed was 1870. The
value of the annual product was $50 00O,-
I52. Deduct from this two fills for the
raw material, and the balance is S29, 200,-
900.
How then does the case stand2 $780,
600 Iaborers in the South. on capital Of
$500, 100000. produce annually $95,00O,.
600; while $4,000 laborers in Massa-
chusetts, on capital of S5l 100000 pro-
duce annually $49,2OO.e00. That is to
say, nearly seven times as many laborers
in the slave States, produce, on capital
nearly eight times as large as that Of
Massachusetts invested in manufactures
not quite twice as much in value J
Take this startling disclosure in con,
neclion with the fact, that the tonnage oil
Massachusetts is greater than that of all
the slave States put together, and in con-
nexion with this fact, that the cotton cul-
ture is the principal source Of wealth in
the South, and we may form some idea Of
the wisdom, energy and skill OF free labor
institutions and how it is. that the slave
States must grow poor, and must always
constitute an unsafe market for free labor
products.

COMPRISING PROPERTIES OF STONE

CONDENsING PROPERTIES OF STONE.
Persons generally, are Indifferent as to
what species of stone is used 10 the walls
Of their buildings and cellars and are dis
posed to look upon stone as only useful as
solid substance of great durability and
cheapness.
Experienced builders we'll know that il
they use brick which have been taken
from the inside of an old chimney, in the
wall of brick house, the color of the
smoke which has penetrated the old brick.
will strike through the plastering in the
inside Of the wall, and make . stain upon
it.
Cellar walls built of hard stones of
many kinds are damp and moist in wet
weather, and sweat 10 the same manner
that pitcher containing cold water is
seen 10 sweat in lot day. This, in both
cases, is owing to the condensing Of the
atmosphere by the water and stone, upon
the surfaces Of the stone and pitcher.
Limestone walls do not produce such a
result; and buildings constructed Of lime
stone, and cellar walls built Of the same
materials. give dry apartments.
There has been constructed at the On
ondaga Salines, large building, the walls
of which are very thick: is of lime
stone,-its apartments are as dry as heat
ed oven.
Grauite hills and mountains do not suf-
fer from drought, and fields, The surface OF
which are covered with stones, suffer less
|! from drought than fields of the same de-
scription which are entirely free from
stone.
Farmers would he gamers by carting
upon their dry fields, hard stone, to pro-
mote moisture in dry weather.
The Granite Exchange in Wall street
has refrigerating influence on the sur
rounding atmosphere in hot weather. Its
apartments have an atmosphere of lowe,
temperature than Phoenix building in the
same street. The stove pipes corrode
with rust in the summer months in the
apartments Of the Exchange from this
cause.
| Many kinds OF stone absorb moisture.
Such stone are not durable, unless placed
in a situation where the frost will moi
reach the fluid, which penetrates the rock
TO degree sufficient to crystalize it, and
by that means produce expansion, which
breaks the stone 10 pieces.

TREE AND SLAVE LABOR.


TREE AND SLAVE LABOR.
Southern Statesmen constantly insist
that the South is the great source of the
wealth of this country; and the federal
government, by directing its chief atten-
lion to the protecting and fostering OF its
staples, has strengthened this delusion.
Gen. Hayne, in his celebrated speech on
State rights, in the Senate of the United
States, remarked-that "the power OLA
country is compounded of its population
and wealth and in modern times, when,
from the very form and structure OF socie-
", far the greater portion of the people
must, even during the cnntiEuance OF the
most desolating wars, be employed in the
cultivation of the soil and other peaceful
pursuits, il may be well doubted, whether
slaveholdine States, by reason of The su-
perior value of their productions, are not
able to maintain number of troops in the
| field, fully equal to what can be supported
by States with large white population
but mol possessed OF so great resources. .
And again." the difficulty is not to pro.
cure men, but TO provide the means o.
maintaining them; and in this view o
the subject, it may be asked, whether the
Southern States are not source Of strength
and power, and not of weakness 10 lht
country" That is, on account OF their
great wealth.
Men are awakins from this delusion re
specting the opulence Of the South. Tn,
developments ofthe last census, the CONNER
eial experience of the last few years, ant
truer philosophy, have shown, that III,
slave States are an actual drain on the re
sources OF the ULion.
