SLAVERY AM CoMMERcE.-The whole com
merce of the world turns upon the product OF
slave labor. What would commerce be with
out cotton, sugar, tobacco, coffee, rice and naval
stores? All these are the product of slave la
Dor. It is a settled fact that free labor cannot
produce them in sufficient quantity to supply
the demands of mankind. II has been said
that one free laborer is equal to FIVE slaves. II
this be so, why has not free labor been en-
ployed in the production Of the above staples?
1t has been attempted and in every case in
which it has been introduced has failed. The
world follows its interests, and if free labor was
more valuable than slave it would be employed
at this moment, in the United States, Cuba. and
Brazil, which are all open to- free labor. And
herein note the greater liberality and self reli-
ant strength Of the slave over the free states.
The former freely permits the northern capi-
talist to come in with his free labor and com
pete with slave labor. The latter pass laws
prohibiting the southern capitalist from coming
IN with his slaves, to compete with northern Ia
Dor. Their prohibitory laws are passed be-
cause they are afraid of slave competition.
whereas, the south, in the face Of the. pretence
which has been handed down from Wilberforce.
to these times, that one white laborer is equal
in value to five slaves, throws her doors omen
and invites the free laborto walk in and try its
hand, and dare not come. What would he
come of England-the arch agitation of aboIi-
tlonlsm, but for cotton, by the manufacture Of
which she has waxed fat and strong, while she
curses the system BY which it is produced2

yeas 40, nays 125.
The motion of Mr.. Taylor, of Ohio, to re-
committee bill to a select committee of thirteen,
was then negatiyed-yeas II, nays 1T. Mr..
Hunt voted IN the minority, and Messrs. Dun
bar, Jones and Perkins in the majority.
The vote was then had upon the pending
amendment Of Mr.. Davis, Of Indiana, proyi.
ding for a grand trunk central railroad and tele-
graph line from some point on the western
boundary of Arkansas, Missouri, or Iowa, be-
tween the Seth and AID degree ofnorth latitude,
with two branches. one running to Memphis,
and the other to the most eligible point on the
shore Of lake Superior. This was
agreed to by a vote Of 1o4 to 81. Messrs.
Hunt, Dunbar, Jones and Perkins voted against
the amendment.
The bill, thus amended, was ordered to be
for athird reading by a vote of 1o4
