SOUTHERN DOCTRINES.

We extract below two articles from the Riot-
unnecessary. The first shows the reasonable
and disunion purposes of the South, and the
latter, the end toward which we are tending.
Both taken together illustrate the intention Of
the South to make Slavery National nsttu-
ton, claiming for it superiority as form of So
ciety over freedom. This doctrine once acqus-
ced in by the North, and we shall next be re.
quired to acknowledge that slavery is equally
the natural and rightful . state of society in
Pennsylvania. 1t is to cary out the abomnai-
ble doctrines we quote below that the Enquirer
labours so zea.ously to advance the election of
Mr. BUCHANAN. We commend the articles to
the attention of the freemen of this county
Fremont AND DIsrSIoN.-In voting for Fremont. a
portion of the North tenders the South the issue of this
Union unconditional submission. If Fremont is cec-
ted, he comes in the proieScd enemy of the south
No Sontherner without treachery his section of the
Union, can become member of his cabinet. His admin
stration if it keep the promises of the Yust de-
prve the South of all interest in the territories and har
ass and njurc slavery in the States. We do not believe
that any portion of the South will submit to his admins
trtiOn. We sure that large portions will not. Dis
union tntn, In event Oh his election, inevitable.
Such event II remote contingency, but let the
North and South prepare to meet it, Let if possible
part peacefully Let the North determine whether il will
have several contederacies Let Pcnnsy vana,
New Jersey Indiana and Illinois, whether their in-
terets will not be best promoted by uniting with the
Southern cOnederacy. Let California too study well the
question, whether she will have Pacific Republic become
tributary to New England unite with the South Let
Us all look these contingencies fully in the face II is not
too late for treason and Fremont TO retreat for the
friends of Union TO lash them from the field if We will
but combine.
But let no one indulge the fatal dcluson that Fremont
he elected and yet the Union preserved. There not
single possibility of such result. II hard Ia keep it
together Then, would fall to pieces without
even struggle to preserve it.
WHAT OUR SCHOOLS SHOULD TEACH AS To SLAVERY
Every school and college in the South should teach that
Slave society s the natural rightfu and normal
state of society Any doctrine short of this contains alb
clifton in the germ: for if it he not the rghtfu and nat
nral form of society cannot last and should prepare
for its gradual but ultimate abolition. They should also
teach that no other form of society Is i'll the general right
eXpedent There exceptional such desert
mountainous countries, where the small patches offer
tile land are adequate to support family than hus
band, wife and cllrcn-such a. Iapland Sweden, Nor
way, Switzerland and parts Of Arabasuch also New

MIA, which, though admirably adapted for
uactures and fishing little fitted for farming
ing. Freemen required in the former purSus>layeS
in the latter Hence, negro slavery found to be the be-
form of slavery.
But schools should also teach that the slaves should
be of different nation from the masters: and the
wider the distinction the better in such the slave
is less apt to feel degraded wish to assert his freedom
and equality
To teach such doctrines must have Southern teachers
and Southern school books. 1t is from the school that
public opinion proceeds and the schools should he set
right.
No teacher should be employed in private family or
public school at the South who not ready to teach these
doctrines Parents, trustees and visitors should look to
this thing.
