When we called the attention of our readers
few days since to the Indian slave trade, as it is
described to exist by the Governor of the terrific
ry of Utah, the principal point of our condemna-
ton was the feature of slave traffic which we dis
covered to exist IN the transaction. The slave
trade, whether in Indian or African captives, is
denounced by our federal laws under heavy pen
alties. The proposition of Governor Young was
this He recommends to the territorial Legisla-
ture OF Utah to open regular commerce in
Indian slaves The traders were to sell and the
government of Utah was to purchase the nisera-
BILE captives. This purchase is not to be ransom,
such as relieved Capt Riley from his unhappy
bondage in the desert of Zahara-for a ransom is
free and unconditional gift of liberation and is
not coupled with servitude. But, tho system
which has been broadly proposed by Governor
Dung falls fully and completely within the inter-
diction of the law of Congress, which prohibits
the slave trade. He proposes to rescue these In-
dian boys and maidens from one captivity to sub
Ject them to another. This fixes upon the trans
action the brand of felony, brand which the laws
OF the land desire to fix upon it. The ruling OBJ
Ject OF Congress- in its enactments was to dscou-
L
contravenes that intention by proposing direct
encouragement to it. What is the difference in
Its effect upon slave selling and slave-catching
whether We purchase from the King of Dahomy
or whether the territory Of Utah establishes
market for the purchase of young Indians, torn
from their rowing tribes! The trade condemned
by the law would, in either case receive an equal
ly powerful impulse.
Indian slavery once existed ia this State but it
was abrogated by the same series of acts that rem
dered African slavery perpetual 1t was found
that the Indians here, as in the Spanish West
Indies, were rapidly dwindling away. A system of
domestic servitude discovered to be destrnc-
tive to a race, whose nomatic inclinations were
entirely opposed to the fixed residence of civiIiz
ed life. The Legislature arrested the hand ofex
termination and set period to the continuance of
Indian seryitude. The whites might have right
to take and to keep, but the Almighty, in of
his earliest cannons, has denied the right hill. TO

Whilst the uegts. multiplied In his servile con-
| dition, the Indian found to perish. 1t was as
manifestly opposed to the laws of nature to hold
the latter IN state OF domestic servitude as il
agreeable to those laws to detain the former
There are many political benefits resulting from
the institution of slavery, as we have it in the
Southern States, which in ouro opinion far more
than outweigh the objections started against it.
And ii the people of tain desire to introduce it in
their midst there is q constitutional method of
proceeding to attain that end. But after having
adopt ed the necessary steps to its legality if they
will consult the statute law of the United States
they will discover, that they will be compelled to
draw their supplies from those States of the I'm
ion where slavery exists. They cannot either
resort to the coast of Africa 70 their leves OF to
those Indian slave catchers with whom Governor
Dung proposes to open commerce.
We believe this Governor has established
among other unchristian usages the institution of
pogamy, and that he has part of his own es-
Enlistment large number of wives. This crow
ded seragio we suppose is supplied from the same
Indian market us the grand Turk replenishes
his hareem with the maidens of Georgia and Cir
eassia. Instead Of allowing a territorial govern
ment and the protection of our laws, to a commune
ty of Mormons, whose pride tits to tread upon the
customs of christian life, it would in our opinion
be better to send out detachment of troops and
dispense that loathsome and detestable fraternity.
Congress can mould the territorial governments to
any form. Instead of shaking the government by
agitating the Wilmot Proviso, it would have
been better in them to turn their attention to the
redress of real evils and abolish and interdct the
immoral system of poigamy, said now to exist
in the Mormon settlements. Whether under our
republican system poligamy could be tolerated,
if one of our States should establish it, is
question which we do not mean to raise. We
would be daunted at the prospect of the Rich
mond Enquirer bearing down upon us in close
columns on the subject of state rights We here
plainly and formally declare that it does not now
enternto our intention to question the right of
the Legislature of Virginia to allot to every Ben
edct two Beatrices.
But we mean merely to suggest that the terri
tory of Utah, to whose political condition the res
outions of '95 and '99 do not apply, might be
purged of this horrible institution by an act of
Congress-

The Ubjg P1ripof he South

y
1t has become fashionable with certain Wbig
papers of the North to speak in disparaging terms
OF the strength of the Southern Wing party. The
inevitable inference, from the train of remark in
which they hab itualIy indulge, is that the Wings
OF the South constitute small and feeble minority
OF the Southern people, and a very inconsdera-
BILE fraction of the great Wing party of the Union;
that they can contribute but little towards the cleo
ton OF "A Wing candidate for the Presidency, and
therefore have no tito require that their wish
es shall be seriously consulted in the choice of a
nominee. These appear to be the sentiments.
not, we would remark, of the Northern Whig
press generally, but of a few journals and letter
writers in that region. Now it is of the utmost
importance that the Northern Wings should not
permit themselves to be misled by such repre-
sensations. We can tell them that if they think
they can elect Wing President without the aid
OF the Southern Wing party, or without paying all
properdeierence to their views in regard to the
selection OF "a candidate, they cherish perous
deluson. The election of the Wing candidate
by Northern votes alone is flat impossible
ty and the inevitable result of an uncompromising
and unconciatory course on the part of the Wings
OF the free States towards the Wings of the
South will be the disastrous defeat of the Wing
cause in the approaching Presidential canvass
The success of that cause i.as completely DEEPEN
dent upon Southern as upon Northern support,
and it is to be hoped that the Wing party of the
free States will bear this fac distinctly in mind.
In this connexon we would invite their atten-
ton to the following classification of the electoral
vote in the Presidential election of 1S4S:

1t will thus be seen that in the last election the
Southern States gave majority of IL electoral
votes for Taylor and Fillmore. They also gave
a decided popular majority for the same ticket
And yet certain designing and INSCRIPTIONS poll
tcians of the Northern Wing party affect to re-
gard the Wing party of the South as powerless
minority, ofwhom nothing is to be expected in
the next Presidential campaign. This cry has
been artfuly re-echoed by the locofoco presses of
the South They, too, untiring in their efforts
to make it appear that the Southern Wing party
is an Insignificant fragment, mere appendage of
the Wing party of the Union They tell us eve
ny day that the Wing candidate will be exclusive
~ dependent upon the free States for support;
that he can expect no aid and comfort in the
South, the Viii sbeing in paltry minority in
this section. This however, is precisely what
these organs declared in the canvass of 184S, and
as in spite of their boastful predictions, locofoco-
ism was soundly drubbed in the South on that oc-
casion, we do not despairofa similar result in the
coming election.
The Wing party of the slave States has, to say
the least, lost none of it strength since the Pres-
dental election of 1885, on the contrary. we
firmly believe that it is stronger now than it was
then, and that with an acceptable candidate for
the Presidency, the Wing cause will triumph
South ofthe Potomac in 1852, even more signal
ly than it did in 1913. The States of MARYLAND,
North Carolina, Georgia, Kentucky. Tennessee,
Louisiana and Florida voted the Wing ticket at
the last election, casting in the aggregate sixty
six elector al votes Now we would enquire of
Northern Wings whether they can afford to spare
these sixty six votes! Can they permit them to
be cast for the Democratic candidate, and still
elect Wing President! We presume there is
not a man to be found in the free States stupid
enough to believe in such an absurdity, and we
trust therefore, that the Wings of that section,
when-they go into the National Convention, will
see and appreciate the necessity of so shaping
their action as to concliate the good feeling and
satisfy, the just requirements of their Southern
brethren. By no other means can the nationality
of the Wing party be preserved, Or its success in
the next Presidential election rendered even pro-
bable.
