SLAVERY AT THE SouIH.-A cores
pondent of Cincinnati paper, who is
evidently deeply imbued with aboIitionism,
has lately visited New Orleans. He
describes quite pleasantly the features OF
Southern scenery, and is incontlnently led
into the following admission in regard to
Southern slavery: "After getting below
Vicksburg our passengers began 10 leave
US, aud on the last day there were many
Interesting scenes. as the planters, with
their families and servants, landed at
their several homes on the river bank.
The steamboat bell rings. and by the time
the boat has swung around and fastened
to the shore, twenty or thirty negroes
men, women and childrcn-come running
down the bank to meet srnassa' and mis-
tress.' Bidding farewell to their friends
of two weeks acquaintance on the boat,
they follow their trunks and boxes to the
landing, where every slave takes them by
the hand and welcomes. them home.

u o. Success ia any business requires a
thorough knowledge Of the means and

Of locomotive in the hands of one who
had never before seen this powerful ma
chine, and instead of being able to drive
it with the speed Of the wind and the pre-
cision Of mathematics, he would be sadly
puzzled to know what first to do with his
important charge, What could a plough
man do if required to superintendent
cotton factory! or a blacksmith the machi-
nery of wholesale merchant What
could shop.keeper accomplish if placed
in charge Of threshing machine, horse
reaper, or a sub-soil plough! !! We should
all doubt the sanity the man who would
send for a lawyer to set fractured limb,
although he might point out to the nicely

ties of John Doe and Richard Roe. The
idea that men succeed by sort Of lucky
