themas, through the press and pulpit, against the
Shareholders OF the South. Why, the proposition
of Governor Wise 10 extend slavery into the
Territories, for the purpose of increasing the
price of negroes, is not so bad after all, when
compared with traffic that is attended yearly
with a sacrifice OF eight thousand lives.
Is it not time that this crusade against South
ern men and Southern institutions were stopped,
and that something were done to put a stop to
this most fendish, this most inhuman trade, car
ried on as it is by Northern men, and with
Northern capital. Think Of the amount of
misery and suffering that is caused by this
traffic, and that 10 swell the profits of our mer-
chants, eight thousand human beings are sacri-
feed every year. And this is the fearful cost at
which they realize an annual profit of seventeen
millions of dollars.
Should not Congress appoint an investigating
committee to inquire into these facts and do
what it can to remedy the evil
The New York herald. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1840-1920, 1857-01-24

have got into difficulty several times by doing
this sort of thing. The grea. Fry libel case grew
out of our response to the appeal OF some ag-
prieved artists who asked for our mpathy and
the use of our columns. Nevertheless believing
we are right, we shah continue to pursue the
same course, and give every one a chance for fair
play in the HERALD, even at the risk Of trouble
with the cmlprtsariO. In Mrs. McMahon's case we
presume that we are comparatively safe, as she is
her own enpr@ario. 1t is little singular, how
ever that the husband Of Mrs Mcmahon, who is
a lawyer has, in conjunction with Mr.. James
Brady, been pursuing us with an action for al
legged libel during the last ten years Now we are
called upon to sympathise with Mr.. McMahOn's
wife who has been outrageously libelled, and we
are expected to open our columns to her rejoinder
Well, We are tender hearted aud we let it pass
Despite the animadversions Of the press, Mrs.
Mcmahon bravely continues her performances
every night and shows a good deal of spirit.
We must again direct the attention of her legal
adviser to the fact that he has capital case for
libel against six or seven of the daily papers,
and he should proceed against them as soon as
the weather moderates and the judges become
tbawed out Decidedly we must have these cases
tried.
But Mrs. Mcmahon is not the only candidate
for public favor to whom our attention is direct
ed just now. Some time during next week we
shall have another excitement. A fair young
lady, moving in the best society, carefully edu
Gated, refined and accomplished in the highest
and ,otr
peared some time since in the concert room, and
at once took q first place in the musical world.
We allude to Madame Cora de Wilhorst, who is
to make her debut at the Academy as Lucia di
LammermoOr This is perhaps more interest
ing event to the fashionable world than the first
appearance of Mrs. Mcmahon. Madame de Viii.
horst is known to be a good singer, and there
will be intense curiosity to witness her first essay
in the lyric drama. Both Madame de Wilhorst
and our fair correspondent Of to-day hail from the
magic circle which radiates from the Fifth ave
nue.. Both are queens in the salon. We slal
see whether they can maintain their supremacy
before the footlights.
Madame de Wihorst has been singing with
Thalberg in the rural districts and we have heard
that she has been told by some One-probably
by Monsieur Ullman, who is fond of little diplo-
matte feats-that We are opposed to her. This
is an absurd impression. We have always treated
Madame de Wlhorst with especial consideration
as she must be aware. We are happy to have
been able to record her successes thus far, and
she has our best wishes in the important step she
is abOut to take next week. Let us have a
bumper house for the new Lucia.
