Since our residence amongst you we have en-
deavored, through, the medium of foreign
press, to disabuse :he public mind on the subject
of Southern slavery. We have identified our
self with you by marriage, have connected our
self with YOU as STAKEHOLDER, and when your
Southern Rights Association was formed we
were not the last to join you, and pledge our a !
in defence of your StsAe and her Institutions
After doing all this, gentlemen, is it right for
your correspondence impugn our motives or
TO accuse us either of treason or falsehood I?
Were we to leave our wife and children, (native
Carolnans) and 60 back to our native land and
refuse to defend our domestic hearth, as your
correspondent advises, we should indeed be a
traitor and a coward of the deepest die. And
while we look back with sad feelings, to the
scenery and associations of our childhood, yet,
at the risk of being called traitor, we do not
hesitate to assert that we hate the institutions of
the land that gave us birth. We feel ourself
under ten thousand obligations to defend our
own dear fire-side and the land OF our adoption.
We have absolved ourself from all allegiance to
all other powers Why, sir, accord ng to the
reasonings of your correspondent, there were
many of our revolutionary heroes (born in Eng
land) who fought, and died in the cause Of your
country's liberty, but who, to use "swEET
HoME's' own language, were "traiters, who
ought to have died,
sUnwept, unhonored, and unsung.'"
As we have already trespasscd too much on
your columns and your patience, we will con-
clude, with wish that your correspondent will
let us live in peace in the land of our adoption.

rIcrIce prevalent III some OF the Northern


practlce pfevaIehG III some of the Northern
cities:
Whenever fugitive slave is caught in
New York and restored to his master, some
of the merchants and others Of that city
make \ great stir, and, by the most piteous
appeals, raise money enough to purchase the
negro and set him at liberty. Sometimes
they do not succeed, but they generally
make the attempt
snow, it strikes us that the moral effect
Of this sort Of business is decidedly bad
and we are certain that it springs from Il
motive which, down here, is not considered
sound or cs,irnahe In the first place, it
induces unobscrving men to believe That
there is great friendship for Southern nsti-
tutions III New York and thus they fall
asleep in the notion that We have only got to
let our Northern brethren manage this affair,
and all will be well.
Secondly: the custom prevails nowhere
else in the Free States; and it is suspected
that it obtains in New York simply for q
mercantile purpose. If trade can be kept in
old channels by few men occasionally
getting together and contributing each ter
dollars or so, why it is an investment which
is decidedly profitable.
"But we contend that it is calculated to
increase in the North the odiousness of the
Fugitive Slave Law, and thus: Their pur-
chasing Of fugitivcs (some three or four per
annum) proceeds upon the presumption that
both slavery and the law are evils but the
latter, being 4 law, may not be evadcd, en-
ccpt indirectly, j. e. by paying TO the master
Of the fugitive the price of its invasion and
qualification. If the property Of poor man
be seized in New York for debt, no sub.
scriplions Of this sort are set on foot: and
because around him every one recognize the
justice of the law by which he is subjected
to the penalty. If the popular opinion in
New York were in 4 condition to do in this
case what is done in the case of fugitive
slaves, that opinion would soon be sufficient
ly strong to work a change in the laws, and
the poor mans property would then be cx-
cmpt from attachments. The precise effect
will occur in the other case.
These monied intcrierences with the law
indicate that it is unpopular, and only waits
u convenient time to be set aside. The
whole business proceeds in derpseatcd OBJ
jections to slavery and the law, which, in the
case of the latter, are made subservient to
policy A law whose stability rests on this
slender foundation can have no durability.
If slavery cannot be defended on the
grounds of its abstract justice, it can have
no defence at all worthy of note; and no
good man can give it defence. We, there
fore, detest these expedients, which can only
last until power enough shall have been ac-
quired to get along without them.''

LoSGEv1TY.-The New Bedford Mercury
says that there is Il strip of land bordering
OH The sea in South Darlsmouth, known as
"Smilh's Neck" which is about one mile in
width by one and half miles in length.
The inhabitants on this strip of land are
mostly Quakcrs, who uumber l45, the ages
of twenty OF whom average Sc wears, and
make an aggregate Of 1929 years. Twelve
Of this number have attained to from 80 to
95 years. making an aggregate Of ll35 years,
and eight others (the comparatively middle
aged) are now from 10 to IS years of age.
This is an amount OF longevity not often

borhood, in many places, it is in tassel, and
some of our farmers have enjoyed the luxury
Of roasting ears. 1t is everywhere SO far
advanced that even drought would not now
affect its maturity. Of cotton we are not
yet prepared to speak, as it generally is the
last of tho summer before an opinion can be
formed. One thing we know, that is, corn
has been much more extensively planted than
cotton, as indeed it should be, it being no.
cessary for the life of both man and beast.

THURSDAY. MAY 90. 1852.
OUR APOLOGY,

We desired to make q few editorial remarks in
to-days paper, but the unusual length of the
communications prevents us from carrying our
wishes into efert. We are heartily glad to re.
ceire, and would freely publish, communications
Of the proper length and breathing the proper
spirit, and we sincerely trust that our corre>pon
dents will reform in both of the above failings.
1t would be arrogance on our part, to say that
perspicacity and brevity are indispensable re.
quisites to perfection in style-that one line OF
poetry bore the palm from hundreds, and that
Sallust and Tacitus, (boih remarkable for their
brevity) are still allowed to he models for imta.
ta,ion. GO Brevity in addition to its other excel.
lencies" says learned writer, =" has this virtue--
short piece will always be read.'
~ THE 4" NORTH AMERICAN MISCELLANY
AND DOLLAR MAGAZINE" for May, reaches us
this morning. 1t is published by Messrs. ANGEL,
EHFEL e. HEWITT, New York. We have not
had (since its arrival) leisure time for reading,
and therefore furbear any comments upon It's
contents. One thing, however, we can say in
its favor, viz that the subscription price is very
cheap, being only one dollar per annum, by no
means an unmportant circumstance.

SINGULAR PHYsIoLuG1cAL FAcT-A letter
from Sharp's store, Downdes Co., Ga, to the
Milledgeville Recorder tells the following
singular circumstance:
" In the year 1916, little boy, the son OF
Mr.. Ashley Lawson, got strangled in trying
10 swallow chinquepin, and from that time
he has been troubled with cough similar to
Group every winter. This spring his parents
thought he would die, (bcing worse off than
usuaD but he coughcd up the chinquepin.
On examination it had bony covering about
one sixteenth Of an inch thicks on it. On
removing The osscous substance, the chin
quepin was found to be perfectly sound, the
marks were or it where he had scraped it
with his knife before trying to swallow it.
He is now in good health and is free from
the cough, with which he has been troubled
so long. In conclusion | would say, that
there are many respectable persons who will
vouch for the truth of the above statement.
