A recent number Of the Richmond SoathsrR-
sr contains the following article. After depre-
eating the late cebates in Congress, on the sub
ject Of slavery. the editor proceeds
"The country proposed to be ceded to us by
the late treaty with Mexico, II should be re-
memberea, the Almighty has WiimOt- PrOvisoed.
Should the free States consent land that they
never will that slavery should be allowed there,
still the climate and the country would forbid
IL. Why, therefore, should we contend for tina,
which proiieth US not--which we can never
possessl Is IL not wisdom on our part to say
TO the North, we be brethren;' and If we can
not possess his property on such terms will
be mutually agreeable, let us not have IL ALL
Let us not take that which muat become an sap-
pie OF discom' and a bone Of contention to us
and our successors, and which must end in the
separation Of people whose fathers have given
us so 'gooay heritage
sand now as to this slavery question, fellow
citizens Of tae South, let us in good feeling
reason one with another 1t should be remem-
bered that Great Britain has abolished slavery
in all her colonies; France, Denmark, Sweden,
and other countries Of Europe, except Spain,
have done so likewise. II is natural to suppose
that the other powers of Europe will not long
suffer imbecile and enfeebled Spain to hold on
to IL. When she gives way, the entire civilized
world, with the exception Of Brazil, will be
arrayed against us on this question. Now,
what is our policy Is IL not wisdom on our
part to avoid having the question Of slavery
agitated IN our political institutions The
North has pledged itself to maintain intact and
inviolate the compromises of the Constitution.
Let us, therefore, abandon the acquisition OF
territory. and free ourselves from this untoward
difficulty.
alt is not generally known, yet it is never
theless true, that two-thirds Of the people Of
Virginia are open and uRdisguised advocates Of
Riding the STATE Of slarsry; and after the year
1850, when the CENSUS is taken, their views will
be embodied in such form as 10 startle the South.
We speak Understandings. We have, within
the last two years, conyersed with more than
FIVE hundred Shareholders in the State; and four
hundred and fifty out Of the FIVE hundred ex-
pressed themselves ready to unite on any gener-
al plan TO abolish slavery upon almost any
terms. Abolition fanaticism at tho North has
not produced thin, but the annexation of Texas
and the acquisition Of territory has done it,
Virginia may b. put down as no longer reia-
Bile on this question. When she goes, the Dis
trict of Columbia is fee territory; then Della
ware and Maryland will also go, and North
Carolina and Kentucky will follow suit This
will surround the extreme South with free
States; and when that day comes, and II will
not be very long, we would just as lief own a
parcel Of wild turkeys Is so many slaves"

MEssRs. EDIroR have before me the 47th

French Of Kentucky on ''Slavery in the Terrific

considered IL a matter Of no ordinary impor-
lance that he should express his sentiments on
this subject; for he commences by saying,
"that if he were actuatsd by regard to his

oppressive state Of the atmosphere, he should
certainly have been the last to rise on this Oc-
casion. But yielded TO a sense Of public duty.
