The Richmond Whig, that sterling newspa'
per, touches up the Lords oil the Loom in the
Northern States, thus:
"The whole non-slavehol ling States make
a regular business Of traducing their South
ern brethren, for the sin of holding slaves
Yet to one Of the articles produced by the lac
bor of these very slaves, do they owe the
unrivaled prosperity which they now enjoy
But for the cultuTe of cotton, where would be
the millions of souls with which these states
are now teeminga They have, in one year,
nearly taken half a million of bales, Their
prosperity is as dependentuPon the cotton crop
as that Of Louisiana. The manufacturer Of
! Lowell is as much interested in the high or
low price Of slaves, as any planter in Mlsss-
sippi or Alabama. His interest is as much
bouud up in slave labor, as that of the man
who owns them. lie does not, it is true, pay
his money for the slave, Superintend his work.
or sell its proceeds. But he offers induces
ments to his actual owner to do all this. by
holding out inducements, he prevails upon
him to add to h 8 stock of slaves. By maxim g
them the more valuable he renders tholr eman-
cipa,ion the more difficult, By raising the
price of the commodities which he produces,
he tempts the owner to exact more work from
the slave.
While so much eioquence is wasted by the
Northern press in abuse of these who grow
the cotton, something, we venture 10 suggest
should be said with regard to those who man"
ufacture it. As long as the non-sl sldveholding
States grow rich upon the product OF slave
labor we think it a little hard that the owners
of the slaves should bear the burden OF theil
abuse. If the traffic in human flesh be SO
detestabIe--if slavery be what Northern men
represent tiff the Shareholder be the wors
! Of 6ends and of culsthroats-as we hear daily
from the North, then it cannot be righteous to
grow rich out of the product OF his SINS
The wages Of iniquity surely cannot thrive
The Jews we're warned neither to touch, taste
nor handle the accused thing.' The ac
cured thing,' so far as the non-slaveholdlng
States are concerned, is Southern cotton =
Let them, then, not middle with Southern
cotton, for. according to their own showing
a curse clings to it, Let them stop their steam
mills, and their power looms; let them abo
ish Springfield and shut up Lowell; and 10
the slords Of the loom no longer minister Il
the lords Of the South.

NIP PnLK,S OPINION

The Editor Of the Nashville Union has oo'
tanned from Mrs. Polk, Veto Mes'ag, which
Mr.. Polk had provided in the anticipated event
of the passage, by Congress, Of Territorial
Bill for New Mexico and California, embody"
lug the Wimot Proviso. The Message OK
plains the grounds of Mr. POlk's assent to the
Oregon Bill with the Wlmot ProVlso' upon
reasons of acquiescence in the Missouri Com
promise. He advocated the doctrines OF nom
interference by Congress with the question OIL
slavery. He says: The people who inhae'''
or may inhabt the acquired territories, have
the right to decide what their domestic lnsll-
mtons shall be, without the interference ol
Congress-" In the Oregon matter he tel1 con-
strained to weld his original convictions, and
to conform to the policy established by the
Compromise because the Missouri Compromlsst
had neen recognised and acqulesced IN by thf
save-holding and non~slaveaoldng States to-
period of nearly 80 years, and had not only

SECRETARY OF STATE.

The Mississlpplan attempts to conceal the
gross injustice it is'doing TO the worthy demo-
crats who are candidate for this Office, (except
one, and we believe canddly it is dong him
great injustice and injuryO by low and sour
rious abuse of the papers which have too
much independence 10 obey its dictum, and
which will not join in this injustice. Its
scurilty is as harmless as 1t is pointless and
unmeanng. In the special blessings given
TO us, the editor SAYS that he has but little
confidence in our democracy,' or the dem~
ocracy oI our paper. We are certainly very
unfortunate in oosing the confidence of this
luminary and monopois of what little dem
ocracy' there is in these parts. We have
never made so much of our democracy as the
Msslssippian has, and by the standard of est-
mating the value Of a thing by what it brings,
that concern is entitled to the preponderance
A lew words will sum up the whole mattel
in dispute. vacancy has arisen in the office
of Secretary of State. Some six or seven
gentlemen, all good and worthy democrats, all
well qualified to discharge the duties of the
Office, have announced themselves, as cand-
dates, The candidates filling to made any a.
rangements among themselves, as we repeat
edy urged they should do, it was proposed
that the democratic press should express
their preference for some one among the nuns
ber, and whosoever should receive majority
should be supported by all, Under this pro-
posting we see it stated eight democratic pa
pers express preference for Mr.. Haynes, five
for Mr.. Bell, the Mississippan's candidate
four own wronalully counted in that number
we beeye,) and two or three FOR Col Wilcox.
In the face Of this proposition, tho Mississlp'
piam came out with dictatorial manifesto in
favor of Bell, and now attempts to dlscredlt
the democracy Of all who will not obey its
behets! The very act Of coming ont undei
the circumstances in the manner it did, was
calculated to exusperute the other candidates
and at once put out Of the question, all hopes
of an election Of democrat. For this, WI
say il is responsible for the election OF whg
and we say further, that concern whlcl
makes such bundering moves does not deserv
to be called tn central organ of an intel
gent party.

A SHORT Story BY DIcKENs,-Dickens tells

tain:
son his last voyage home the captain had
on board young lady ofremarkable persona
ntIrpc'ions--a phrase use as one being en-.
tirely new, and one you never meet with ii
the newspapers. This young lady was below
ed intensely by 5young gentlemen, passengers,
and in turn was IN love with them all very
ardently, but without any particular Erefer-
ence for either, Not knowing how to make
up her determination in this dilemma, she con.
suited nv friend, the captain. The captain.
being man of an original turn Of mind, says
to the young lady slump overheard and marry
the man who jumps after you.n The Young
lady struck with the idea, and being naturally
E'ond OF bathing, especially in warm weather.
os il then was, took tho advice Of the captain
who had q boat ready manned in case Of acci-
dent. Accordingly next morning, the hve
being ondeck, and looking very devotedly ii
the young lady. she plunged into the sea head
foremost. Four Of the young lovers immedi.
ately jumped in after her. When the young
lady and her four lovers were got out again,
she says to the captain, What am to do now,
they are SO .wetl' Says the captain, take the
dry oneH And the young lady did, and married
him"

By the restriction proposed in the Territori-

that the Compromise was disregarded, and
il this abandonment Of its principles, he con

original convictions Of the duty of absolute
non-interference, by Congress, with slavery in

or this straightforward President of the UNI

does all things sensibly. Ho thinks sensiblv,
he speaks ibly, acts sensibly, fights sensiN

tle is precisely one of those men Of whom it
can be said, the more you know Of him, the
more you Hike him and the more you confide in
him. Without by>ends in view or by-wuys Of
reaching them, he presents perfectcontrnst to
the trading politician or the political partisan
Unschoolcd in party tactics, he takes position
for the county-unawed by demagogues and
lactionists, he "respectiulIy declines" to sur
render principles he deems essential to the
peace, safety and general welfare of the
| country.
He was early tried in the field and never
found wanting, closing his military career in Q
blaze Of glory. He was tried ms soon as seated
in the Presidential char, by difficult and deli
cate questions with foreign powers, tried by ar
opposing party press, opening upon him will
its artillery of slander and vituperation, sucl
as was never directed against any honest mar
in this country, excepting Henry Clay wh'
stands forth unhurt and unscathed, "h ad ant
shoulders" above most men, the living monu
ment of the impotency such assaults. Gen
Taylor has been further tired in a recent strug
gle between the South and the North. upol
questions of solemn import, now in a fair Iva,
of satisfactory adjustment, but presenting a
one time a crisis fearful in the extreme. N
