Slavery and CottoHpp.,, :,

Greedy d Co., only betray their
gross ignorance ofsfacts when they i'm.
agine that slavery would be abolished
it the cotton culture ofthe u. States
were abandoned. Even if this were
SO, the notable schemes they rely upon
to dispense with cotton are about as
wise end practioabls as might be ex-
Pected from such great philosophers
lhe East India plan so far is great
failure. and fo' the flax substitute, the
soil of the slave States is peculiarly
we'll adapted: Nearly two thirds of
the Whole flax crop of the country is
produced by Kentucky, Tennessee,
Missouri, North Carolina and Virginia.
Unfortunate phiIan,hropists! Nature
has conspired with man to tlfwart the
benevolent spirit Of this age!
Wien these philosophers suppose
that there is no department. OF indus.
try but the cotton culture in which
slave labor is profitable, they commit
an egEegious error. Statistics now be.
fore us's show that I5'milllons of dollars
are invested in the Southern States in
the manufacture of cotton, iron and
wool, and $4,000 operatives employed;
that the South produces nearly one
fourth of the wool grown in the United
States, that its corn crop amounts to
274, 600 bushels, about one half of the
whole corn product ;.that it's live stock
is worth more than ,s259, 900, 900, or
nearly half the whole prod;;ot of the
country. There ere four or FIVE South
ern States, either of which produces
ten times the provisions and live stock
of New England. Not more than one
third of the slaves OF the South are en- /.
gagged in making cotton for market
So it is very clear that the abandon
ment OF the cotton crop would not in.
voIve. the abolition of slavery.
WY don't Greeley, Beecher, Stow

with the uss of cotton, Let them di.
