Be-. let US take up the Couricr's reasons IN due
5rier;
!! Thentroduclion Of Slaves INTO Texas, lror
INV ether Country than ours, Is nor forbidden
aud panished by the laws OF that Country, So
lere is nothing gained.
,. We say to this that Slave culture, being
most cxhausting aud wasteinl, is ever requiring
a.w and broad lands. Ia an old, well settled
country, Slavery is not now profitable on The
whole and never can be.
3. The assertion here is liie very reverse OF The
tact. Slaves have always been icors' treated
wIlero mast profitable, and always will be- In
Delaware, Mar;land Virginia, thcir condition IS
Tar better and Iheic labor Tar lighter than IN Mis-
s.ssipp, Louisiana or Cuba, where II Is more pro
itab!e. l; is only where men and women are
.!n2loycd n gangs to cultivate bouotcous, virgin
soil, thet Slavery exhibits It's most sepGls!ve ca-
lures.
4. THIS is iii glazing defiance Of facts. Sla-
gcry Is kept alive at this day III Virginia, diary
and Sc. by the large and lucrative market for
amman cattle farther Sautl, and West. But for
dis. It could not Row be profitable TO hold
ayes above Tic Roanoke. If Slavery had ne
r,r been cx.caded beyond tic Old Thirteen
states. and the interest at5 traffic been PTohib-
ted it must ere this have died ont down 10
south Carolina. To annex Texas viii extend
nd quicken the internal Slave Trade, and thus
,.olong the existence Of Slavery III the elder
Slave States at least half a century.
6. We do not see how the Commerce Or
Wealth of the Country is 10 be extended by this
measure. Arc the Cotton lands below the Sa
,ne any better than those above Clearly not
generally The reverse Have we not millions on
millions Of acres yet uaimpfovcd Certainly.
Gacn how ets we 10 increase our wealth by re-
.aoying our laborcrs farther South? Mas: not
very much labor be absorbed in merely preparing
to grow Cotton there
-!is to England excluding our Cotton, and
Texas growing all she wants these will come 10
,tss some time after the SKY has fallen. We
marvel il had moi been added that Texas w.!ltakc
al tic goods England can Manufacture, 30 tI4t
the latter wall not lei us have any!
As 10 &c Not! always refusing the admis-
son Of a slave without 3: Free State, within our
lnqucstioncd limits, NC know Of no such rule
nd no principle that would Justify any. If a
Save Territory is c,;i.lcd 10 admission as a

IL The R,cdmond Enquirer boiis oyst with
Annexation. |, represents the country all alive
on that subject, and It's Letters from Washington
rcpresent that delegates have teen despatched 20
Texas to persuade the Texans not to make any
bargain with England, ou, to await the issue Of
lux Elections. 4 letter 10 the same effect from
Members of Congress to the Texan Congress
lad Pcop.e is contemplated. Annexation is every
thing wi,l the Enquirer, which even strikes hard
blows at Col. Benton for voting against The
rrea'y.
