WHAT IS TO BECOME OF TIN
WHITES 2

Such is the question which the Cincinpa-
ii Daily Enquirer urges very appropriately
on tie attention of the besotted and de-.
bauched idolators Of the abolition dagon,
who are lashinS themselves into convulsions.
From this article we extract passage, of
some interest and value from such source:
Nothing IS more easily demonstrated
than that the North has greater interest
in the continuance of Slavery in the South,
than the South itself. AIlthe burden, blight
and evil of Slavery fall upon the South
The North quietly divides the products of
the labor, washes its hands of all the sim
fulness Of it, and is protected from all its
evils and inconvoniences. Every pound Of
cotton raised in the South adds to the
North. Boston makes more out of each
bale shipped from New Orleans, than the
latter city; she makes it in the freight of
cotton taken abroad on her ships. in the
supply of raw material for her manufacto-
ries and in the articles required to produceit,
which are fabricated by Northern artizans.
mo wonder the North prospers so much
more than the South. She has all the ben
efts of slavery and none Of its evils. She
takes the South for her support and enrich
ment. Let Slavery be abolished in the
South, and you may reverse the relations of
the two sections. The North will then have
to support those whose consumption has so
long burdened and weakened The South
We believe that the abolition of slavery
would be a great evil to the country, but in
the division of the evil, the North would
come in for the largest share.

we are indebted for the immense ea,r,,;.
trade which employs our navigation. Ia.
in the same States that our manufact,,,o.~
find a large market for their goods, and on

Suppose, what, under such condifon
would inevitably be the case, this Sontho-
republic, with little navigation of its own -
foster, and with no manufacturers to epcor
rage, in reciprocal commercial interiors;.
with all the manufacturing countries Off,

sentiments of animosity engendered bv tbo
disruption, would be no less likely to occn.
discrimination against our ships and rood.
of the North, and where would be that pros.
perity which now gladdens our manufactnr
ing towns and fills our seaports with lis.
and activity! A dissolution of the Union
would depreciate the value of tho pronert,
of New England fifty cents on the dollar
The wheels of our manufactures would bo
stopped, the implements of the mechanic
would be put by, our ships decay at our
Gecaying wharves, and the grass spring IN
in the streets of our towns and cities
These would be the material consequences
The moral consequences may be summed
up in single line. The destruction of tho
worlds last hope"

UNITED STATES TROOPS WHIPPED.
From an extra of the Leavenworth Her

nation of our worst fears. We have not
time to comment but give the extra entire:

der and Butchery.
An express has just arrived here, bring
ing intelligence that Lecompton has been
taken by Lanes myrmidons, and that our
friends are at the mercy of the armed ruff
fans. The attack was made this morning
about TIE dawn of day. Our friends resist
ed as long as they could, but were finally
overpowered by Lanes men, who number
ed social armed to the teeth.
They attacked the guard Of the United
States troops, who had in charge Robin
son and the other prisoners, who surrender
ed, not firing a gun, and are now i'll the
hands of Lanes men. 1t is impossible to
state in letter all the outrages committed
by these maraudCrs.
The following dispatch addressed to Col.
Payne, of the 9Th Regiment, tells a sad and
dreadful tale. Is there heart in the breast

A MERCHANTS VIEW OF THE EFFECTS
OF A Dissolution OF THE UNION.-Mr.
Croker, friend to Daniel Webster, an
active Wing, and one of the most intelli-
gent merchants of Massachusetts, in a re-
cent letter presents an admirable protest
against sectionalism. The following is a
pregnant passage:
Il invoke the manufacturer, the nerch-
ant, the ship-owner, the mechanic-eyery
man who has the smallest stake in the pros
perity, the wealth, the happiness of the
country-to consider how his interest and
the welfare of those with whom his interests
are bound up, would be affected by vio-
lent disruption, or even peaceable disso-
luton of the Union of these States. It is
common to hear the remark that the North
can take care of itself. Doubtless she can.
The enterprise of her people is boundless,
and her energy indomitable. But it must
be remembered that a dissolution of the
Union with the formation of a Northern re-
public would cause new combinations
Commerce is essential to national wealth,
no less than national greatness. The North

There is now no longer any doubt of a
general war, waged upon us by the aboli-
tionists. We must repel them-we must
protect our men in Kansas! Come, then,
We farmers of Lafayette-old and young
and defend your fresides, or you will soon
be driven from your homes. Come up on
Wednesday, ready to go on to Kansas,
with horses, wagons, provisions and arms;
bring extra horses if you have them.

The following is the Proviso which the
Black Republicans of Congress insist upon
attaching to the Army appropriation bill,
and TO which the Senate very properly re-
fuses to agree:
Preceded. Nevertheless, That no part of
the military force of the United States here
i'll provided for shall be employed in aid of
the enforcement of the enactmeHts of the
alleged Legislative Assembly, of the Terri

enacted either that it was or was not a va

nifty with the organic law by the people of
said Territory. 1ud proridcd, That, until
Congress shall have passed on the validity
of the said Legislative Assembly of Kan

use the military force in said Territory to
preserve the peace. suppress instruction,
repel invasion, and protect persons and
property therein, and upon the national
highways in the State of Missouri, from I'M
lawful seizures and searches. Ind be II

A BAND OF SHRIEKERS.-The editor of
the Maquoketa Qowa) Sentinel, thus des-
cribes Lanes company of emigrants for
Kansas, whom he saw encamped at Iowa
City:
On either side of the road on which they
were encamped, could be seen strewed over
the ground, the very scum and offscourings
of creaton-men who knew no law-men
who have not the common decency of the
5rute-the counterpart Of desparadoes, rob-
bers and villains, of whom we read in his
tory, and who infested the Upper Missis-
sippi valley and were known as the bandit
ii Of the prairie. Here on all sides could be
seen the ''Pious" teachings of Henry Ward
Beecher-men with countenances bl0ated,
eyes bleered; cards, those passports to
hell" were seen in the hands of groups, ac-
compapied with the vilest blasphemy; and
as they turned their trump with "a horrible
oath, mingled with the dismal yells of their
debauchcd companions, poisonous exhala-
tons rising from their fetid breaths but too
plainly told that these lovers of kansas
freedom were but the icentious pot house
ioaters raised in the purlieus and dark sinks
of infamy. They talked of freeing Kan
sas! y mere degraded, ''rufian' looking
band of beings who would claim themselves
to be human, our eyes never before gazed
upon--all armed to the teeth with a Sharp's
rifle, Bowie knife, six shooter, flask, &c.
