II win he seen that Mr.. Lawrence labors to ex-
cuse if not to justify, this interference with our
slaves: and this correspondence, if there were no
other reasons for it, suffees to show that we
should be, represented in London by Minister
who sympathizes with the South, and would OK
ert himself to defeat the policy Of England in
relation to our slaves.
| That government has again and again declared
it to be her fixed purpose to exert her influence
in aid Of the emancipation of the black race Her
| Consul at Charleston, but the other day, demand
ed the repeal of the laws of South Carolina in
relation to negro seamen, upon the ground that
those laws interfered with the trade between the
British West Indies and the State of South Caro-
lima, and especially with the trade carried on in
small vessels, and navigated by blacks, which it
was the wish Of her Majestys government to
encourage.
i Why does England wish to abolish slavery in
il Cuba, Brazil, and the United States. Why does
she wish to enforce, in her West India Islands,
contracts made with our States?
The time was, when England sold a large
amount of her manufactures on the continent OF
Europe. The people on that continent have, to
! q great extent ceased to consume her manufac-
lures They have become her rivals and compete
with her in the other markets of the world. The
people Of the continent, however, consume large
quantities of tropical products-of cotton, Coffee
rice, and sugar. England has large possessions
| in India, and many millions Of East India sub
jects. She can control the markets Of India. The
people in India produce cotton, coffee, rice, and
sugar; and she can compel them to receive her
manufactures in exchange for their cotton, rice,
sugar, and coffee; and she could obtain those
tropical products from India at less cost than they
can be obtained ut elsewhere. She could then mo-
nopolize the continental market in the supply Of
these products. She abolished slavery in the
West Indies because she had in the West Indies
but 800, 900 blacks, and she had in the East
Indies many millions of East India slaves, and
because she then believed that these East India
slaves could produce these tropical products
cheaper than they can be produced elsewhere
She has since ascertaincd her East India slaves
cannot successfully compete with Cuba, Brazil,
and the United States. 1t is not her love for the
ON the white, that stimulates her philanthropy
OF all the efforts she has made on this subject
there is none which more deserves the censure of
the United States. That its bearing and policy
may be understood, we quote from " Frazer's
Magazine" published about the time of Lord
Ashburton's visit to this country.
The article in Frazer is headed, :. Var rah
america blessing to mankind" The writer says:
"a commercial nation like England, covering
the sea with her merchantmen and having colo
MES in every part of the habitable globe, can
never dream Of permitting herself to be at war
| with a maritime and privateering people like the
Americans for several years in succession. She
must bring matters to point very quickly, or
the unseen loss will become far more serious than
the seen expense X x = The men who
talk of making war upon q nation of fourteen
millions of freemen, unencumbered with debt or
taxation, we'll accustomed to the use of arms, and
to be attacked ON their own ground and by their
own fresides-the men, we say, who think it an
easy thing for us, by sending out an expedition
and burning few seaport towns, to bring such
nation upon its knees, are just about the widest,
most irrational caculators of the chances of war
that ever helped nation into inextricable diff
culties. y x The United States are
Engand's only rival on the seas
France is burning for an opportunity of wiping
many most significant tokens of late Of her eager
ness to seize the first favorable opportunity of
striking a blow at her ancient enemy.
Russia is fermenting mischief in the East, and
| that very moment that sees England fully occu-
pied in other directions would see Russian force
| on its way to northern India. = On
all these points, and on others which might be
added we should look upon ENHANCEMENT with
America as the PROBABLE commencement Of or ma
Gondl humiliation, dismembcrment and rum Y
But America has three millions of
slaves and these slaves are Americas foemen
this is the sin and the weakness of America.
What possible doubt can exist as
to the propriety the expediency, nay, the abso.
lutte duty, of making subservent to the great
and permanent object of freeing these three mil
lions of cruelty oppressed human beings? Policy,
too, no less than philanthropy, prescribcs such
course of warfare. BY this mode, and this only, |
a war with America may be brought to u speedy
and inevitably triumphant close. AS we have
already observed, a struggle between the people
Of England and their descendants in America
must be fearful, protractcd, and lamentable
one. But if assaed in this quarter vital part
is instantly and surely reached. The Union is dis
solced, and Mc scdr is at an end \ In one
morning force Of ten thousand men could be
raised in Jamiaca for the Acknowledgement of their
brethren in America. Such force, supported
by two battalions of Englishmen and 10000
muskets, would establish themselves in Carolina,
never TO be removed. IN three peehS from Their
appearance Tie entire South acoutd be IN one confa-
grafton The chains Of million Of men would
be broken; and by what power could they ever
again be riveted? We say that this course is die
tated alike by seJ-presordtion and by philan-
thropy"
