The Mission to England.


Speculation has been rife as TO the cause OF Mr..
Elmore of South Carolina declining the Mission
to England By whatever other motives he may
have been prompted, 1t is gratifying 10 have reason
to think that one, which augurs well for the South,
was, in ITSELF forcible enough okeep him at home.
If we are not misinformed, Mr. Gilmore has come
to the conclusion, that, instead of perpetually
camoring against all Protection to American Indus
try, and in favor of foreign labor, is much wiser
TO fall in with The policy which much tribuation
and costly experience have al last forced upon the
country. In word, instead OF crying out TO the
death for Free Trade, he is about TO embark large
ly in Manuf ufdctwes IN has ocH State. As the noun
tain would not come 10 Mahomet, Mahome, has
wisely gone to the mounain-and happily, II is not
left 10 Mr. Elmorc, forecasting and Judlclous man
Us he is, to be solitary and alone in putting this
balrin notion All things considered, the want OF
capital among others, manufactures are rising upin
the South, as fast hs in the North. The facilities
for travelling have led Southern men TO visit New
England and there, witnessing the harmonious
union and growth of Agriculture and Manu'ac-
lures, they have naturally concluded that, with
due degree of skill aud economy in the use of the
material and the power employed in the abrica-
tion Of domestic goods. they may be AS proiitably
manufactured where water power can be found in
the very borders OF the cotton fields, and in the
midst of sheep pastures Hence it is that the buzz
OF the spinning jenny begins to be heard through
the Carolinas aud Georgia, and hence M FL
more declines going to Easiand.
In the experiments about 10 be made for the es-
tabllshment Of manufactures in the South, not the
least interesting feature is the design 10 0poid in
them the use Of Stare labor The difficulty hereto.
FORE one difficulty al least, has consisted in getting
suitable labor. Free Labor, which might have
been had on the spot, as 1t is procured in Ma
ryland, could not be had 10 minsle with
Slave labor; but the design we understand now
is, in Carolina, to rely on Free Labor entirely,
such as may be had there, with Northern supern-
tendenrs; and the expectation is ha, to work in
these factories will be regarded as honorable EN-
ployment, and thus comfortable livelihood vii,
be procured, and the hope and pride of independ-
ence be imbibed by thousands who have no land OF
class of their OWN, and whc, poor and proud" 5"
will submit TO any thing sooner than work in the
field by the side OF the Slave, and when they do,
soon sink 10 his moral level Such is the expert
ment going on, and such the prospect Of change
in the South, pregnant, as any one may see, with
important results
