trades unions ut the North. 1t is begetting, too q
universal spirit Of agrariauism at the North, whcI
street constables and the night watch may not always
be able to suppress. In Europe, the same spirit
bursts out in frequent and bloody revolutions, de-
spite of powerful police and great standing armies
The North has, even now, quite enough to do in
keeping the peace at home, without troubling itself
about our affairs.
Speaking Of free labor, the North American says :
at ha, sn inviolate hearth il has home !" Why,
now, this is delightful So you lave :otten up the
millennium at last. Every man lss down under his
own vine and ig-tree, with none 10 modest him" Do
send the news to England, where thirty thousand
persons own all the lands to Scotland, where thrs
thousand own them and to Ireland where fewer still
possess them. Let them know in New York, too, Of
your discovery and improvement In social science
Let Gerrit Smith, ard Greeley, and Goodell, and An
drews and Seward aud the antren.ers all know it,
They are all there outrageous against land monopoly
and have just started newspaper-the Gland Re-
tormer"-to induce the laborers to "vote themselves
farm" Send the news quickly 10 New York, tor
mobocracy threatens her. Last sgang, meeting q
working in the Park "resors ID that fifty thou.
sand working men and women We're daily seeking
employment during the last inclement winter, i'll that
city" Add the children, and here are hundred
thousand without "ther vine and fs.tree"
Well, "Othelo's occupation s gone" To "show
up" hireling labor society, has been our business and
amusement for sometime past Where shall We go!
What shall We do now for living! This "yne and fig.
tree" business in Pennsylvania will knock US into
cooked hat But is the North american sure that il
is truc-all true Now, our slaves have all good
homes, pure ai~ pure water plenty of fuel and abun-
dance of food bu; this Pennsylvania "hearth and
home," ""vine and tis-ree' business, contuses, be.
wi!iers, confounds us!
We believe the South far wealthier than the North.
The soil of the South contains undeveoped wealth
reater than all the North possesses; and We develop
it as fast as we need it. Fast enough to keep our
people out of ails and poor houses to feed and cohe
ourselves, and greatly help 10 feed and cothe the
North.
The cosmopolitan wealth Of the North would re-
move TO the South at once, in event Of dsunon, to
get something to eat and to employ its capital in ma
nufactures, shipping and trade. The North would
have nothing to manufacture no people to cheat and
trade with and no freghts for ships The wealth OF
the South would quadrupla, but we would not have
the wealth, "cum onere" The vulgar bosses, the
bunted parveneus, the nouveaux riches, the Insuo'
ordinate and rotous operatives, Yankee manners and
customs superstition, nfdelity agraranism and an.
archy would rush in along with the population and
capital of the North. We must preserve the Unior
to keep out Northern wealth and Northern people,
If none but Democrats, Old-Line Wings and old Fe
derasts would come, we should hail their arrival, bu
the sms would make the South unfit for decent maj

without food or clothing, without freehts, or Gus
toms, or trade or the material for manufactures
! How rich will she be then'
