pages. He exhibits negro-sayery, abolition, and
me abolitonists in the proper points Of view; he
adverts Justly TO the extensive white slavery in
Europe If the new book--heretofore reported to
you--on Russia, by GoLovINE, should fall into his
hands, let him translate and publish the section be-
ginning page 254, on Russian serfdom negro
slavery in the United States will even gain by a
collation. of law and fact. Mr.. CAREY tells us-no
doubt ruly-that the fanatical movement of the
Abolitioniss checked the progress of things in Ma
ryland; he likewise records, what know to be
accurate, that the disposition manifested in Vr-
gna, in 1892, to hasten the extinction Of slavery,
was suddenly checked by the same cause: so also
in Kentucky. A paltry sheet has been transmitted
from Pittsburg to your correspondent, in which he
IS represented as having been once an aboitionst,
and being now ga paid purveyor to the Southern
shareholders" II he had ever been an abotionist
in the present sense he would rejoice to have repu-
dated the name and fraternity, since he has closely
followed and studied, in America and Europe, the
proceedings, dispositions, and purposes of sect
that has invented and spread more noxious false
hood and atrocious calumny than any other of
modern times, and whose schemes involve more
malgnity and evil than could be imputed to Jesuits,
Freemasons, illuminate, Carbonari, or the other
orders and associations denounced as conspirators
against human welfare Your correspondent has
never received pay, nor looked to reward, for the
ntterance Of any sentiments on any subject in
this way he might--as he could prove--have
succeeded egregiously with the Abolitionst. On
your side OF the Atlantic. you cannot be ig-
norant how well they understand the power and
application Of money, well as SANDER, in their
twofold crusade. We who learn their secret and
scan their public operations in Great Britain and
France, positively know that they gather and use
extraordinary sums, and that they have always at
command ample subsidies for every kind of service
We are not surprised that, while they deal chiefly
with NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. journalists, tourists,
spouters, intriguers, seducers, pampheteers, or
electoneerers-they should arraign as corrupt all
Independent judgment and action against their own
designs and Vaccinations. Your slavehoding States
have not exerted themselves in selfdefence in any
degree or manner which can bear comparison with
the activity, range and fierce perseverance of their
organized assailants. American characterin general
has seriously suffered by the unremiued, wide
spread INSCRIPTIONS arin Europe, for many years
past, on American slavery and shareholders. In
every quarter, the enemies of our Union and of Re-
publcanism calculate most on the slavery question
disturber and dssolvent and as an expedient of
defamation and dscredt If the European nations or
people-British, French, or other-shoud at any
time be disposed to second urge their Governments
in belligerent endeavors to cripple American power
and institutions, it will be from the diusive preju-
dices and antipathies, from the aversion or odum
created by the machinery of the ant-savery societies
and their abettors. Last winter, pamphlets written
and printed in New England, were placed in GA
LIGNANIs Reading ROOMS to attract English read
ers, which filled me with horror, by the enormity
of the charges and invectives, and the intensity of
the venom lavished on the American shareholders
universally, and indeed the whole American
people except the Abolition zealots enclosed for
you in one of my former epistles an article from
the London Spectator) headed Nationality rare for
its impartial vein and judicious temper 1t was
occasioned by resolution which had been offered
successfully by certain Rev. HENRY G. WRIGHT,
of Philadelphia, at meeting of the Glasgow Eman-
cpation Society-which resolution affirmed il to be
the duty of the people Of Great Britain to combine
and to seek the dissolution of the American Union,
as " the gigantic enemy of freedom and the rights
of man." The apostle has replied to the Spectator
IN an article of furious fanaticism, wherein he pro-
claims the doctrine of the resolution, and his
willingness to be thought traitor to the American
Union and Government, as he conscienfiously de-
mands British aid for its overthrow. The Spectator
of the 9th instant rejoins with second vigorous
argumentative rebuke. Admit, if you can spare
the room, the two following passages, which illus
trate the case between the disputants, and the
Abolition career:

The town Of Alton, Illinois, exhibits strange phenome-
its Statistics for is stated that the population Of the
town amounts to 4000 and that among the whole there
only twelve unmarried females eleven Of whom engaged
and the twelfth widow, who has already had three hus
bands. If the accurately compiled, agree per-
