The Slave Systems OF England and the
United states.

The East India Company, to which the British
Government is tributary, have succeeded admira-
bly, in their programme. Their commercial supre-
macy, growing by what it feeds upon, coyets the
monopoly of the chief staples Of commerce. 1t is
not denied that their Vaccinations ruined the
West Indies
Their next move was the destruction of the
Southern States. They would be willing that
the horrid tragedies Of the West Indies should be
enacted in the south, provided they can destroy
the rice, the sugar and cotton cultivation OF our
Southern States. III is well known that such is
the irreparable nature of these Southern staples,
that they cannot be produced by free labor.
These crops are, as you may say, one idea The
whole year is spent in their development. They
have their unyielding necessities, and must at all
hazards be needed. For instance, in the cotton
picking season the crop must be gathered at
particular time or it is all lost, and with it the
labor and expense Of the whole year Could
planter be dependent upon free labor, liable at
these critical periods TO leave him in hopes of
forcing exorbitant wages' could planter who
was forced to have sixty men within twenty -four
hours, submit to the contingency of black mail /?
The English and French know that in tropical
climates labor must be ompulsory but they
purchase their slaves for a term of years and thus
escape by mere subterfuge the precise condition
ofservice of our Southern States.

white men succeeding the African in tropical

the that it made of him. They are admitted
facts which point to the explanation of the
institution of slavery, and refer it to wiser coun-
sells than finite fanatics can comprehend.
But the decree has gone forth. The institution
must be destroyed, even though the Union is dis
solved: The American people feel and act. The
English feel without acting. Hence, if the Anne
rican mind is poisoned, result will surely follow
The English may have the same prejudice against
slavery, but are powerless to compel the East
India Company to act in obedience to an aroused
moral sentiment. | venture to affirm that all the
alleged evils of slavery exist by law of England,
in and through the East India Company, without
the cognizance of the English people, and, if they
know of it, they are powerless to contend with
the arrogant monopoly. Nay, worse, slavery
exists under the East India Company with its
worst features, without its compensatory advan-
tage to the slave. -.Ne,c York Herald.
