The Richmond IVA Dispatch takes the fol-
lowing view Of the slavery discussion of tho
day. This short paragraph contains more COM
mon sense than whole tones Of the current dis
QUESTIONS and defamation on the subject:
Whist pleasant reefit would be if both Northern and
Southern presses would rest while from the eternal
dpsdops Of the abolition subject There certainly
white people in the United States whose interests deserve
occasionally attention Why should three millions
of blacks absorb the public and public attention to
should the twenty millions of white men cut each others
throsts md tear down the nobest OF
under the account Of three millions OF negroes
Answer us that, ye ortherp agitators!
Good, sound sense But it will not win, just
new The g niger question is too important
to the politicians to be let alone; and as a mat
ter of course, thousand million dollars worth
of prope ty will be trihed with, made less valu
able, less secure, to advance the purposes of q
few constituencies demagogues, nine-tenths of
whom have no more pecuniary interest in slaves
than the 60 man in the NOON This, however,
is owing to the suicidal policy Of many Of our
slave owners, who, by some idiosyncracy or
other, usually manage to get on the impolitic
side. As9
The ssnigger" is great, in fact, stupen-
dous institution! He answers threefold pur-
pose, and that is more than many white men
| are capable Of In the first place he sows, hoes
| and gathers product which clothes world
| which has made Massachusetts, rich and sauey
better than her neighbors; which enables
England to carry on the war against Russia
which supplies France with the sinews of con.
each others threats by furnishing the raw ma
terial indispensable to the prosecution of mul
| hilarious branches of industry.
In the second place, the s'nigger'' assists tht
Abolitionists and anti Americans of the North
wonderfully. Without sambo they would 500,
lauguish and die. His odor alone supplies then
with vitality.
In the third place, niger is just as useful il
the South as in the North. In the North h,
manufactures bogus Democrats, Abolitionist
and anti-Americans In the South he manu-
features anti Americans, Secessionists and Jogu
Democrats. He is equally valuable in boti
sections of the Union in the furtherance of 90
jects Numerically opposed to each other
Wonderful product Is Sambo. Hurrah for AT
RIGA!
/ But this subject is altogether too serious II
De Lredteu i9ntly. Inc remedy lies exclusively
in the hands of the slave owners. For year
they have been used5by political charlstans-
their dearest rights jeoparded. Are they will
u ling that this game should be continued longer
Shall one thousand millions Of property be an
nualy made the sport of aspirants for office
Shall the interests of millions and the welfar
OF the world be trifed with to advantage dena
gogues' Or shall the honest and true men 0
the nation be called upon to act in the premises
men who have stake In the Community mel
who will lose in the loss Of their neighbors
men who have character to sustain men VIII
possess intellect and prudence sufficient to ena
a BILE them to WELD controlling infuence'
i These are the questions to be answered, an,
4 if they are answered rightly and acted upol
4 judiciously and promptly, Sambo will sool
4 cease the manufacture Of anti-Americans AM
II Abolitionists in the North and anti American
i and Secessionists in the South. His occupation
in political sense, will be gone! Then, OIL
era Of good feeling would speedily dawn upol
the country, and the welfare Of three million
4 of beings, bearing the stamp Of degradation
from the hand Of the Almighty, would not b
allowed to interrupt the regular progress Q
events in the march Of amelioration and ad
i vancement. .5#., =
