1t thus aPpears thst, with all his zeal to recon-
mend himself to his slave breeding and slsvetrsd ng

the toes Of ,omebody at home, has lsmentably
failed and has shamefully betrayed his case. This
idea Of limiting slavery to negroes Will never an
swer the exigencies of the South Among the
slaves are large numbers with as fair complexion'
as Mr. OCOnor himself, and the whitening process
is going on rapidly every day. Unless Mr.. o Conor
can make up his mind to 60 few points further
which, considering the lengths he has gone would
not seem 20 very dicult-and to hold to Slavery as
blessine-not merely to negroes, but to poor white
men-he can hardly be expected to be retained to
argue any more Lennon cases. Unless be is will
