upon you for the grounds of such an opinion,
albeit your subscribers might fairly demand
them from you. 1t is quite another thing, to
assert that certain members of Congress are
grossly corrupt and that you have the evidence
to prove it. Congress has in this case a right
to demand from you the names of the criminals,
and the evidence, and you are morally and hon.
orably bound, although perhaps not legally, to re-
spond. We believe in the rights of the Press, but
also in its duties. No editor has the right to prefer
positive charges against any man, dishonorable
to him, or against a legislative body, dishonor-
able to its members, unless prepared and ready
to prove his charges, and stand by them. An
opposite course, in our opinion, fairly attaches
to him the discredit of being libeller. If this
course be sanctioned by Public Opinion, then
let Congress hereafter disregard whatsoever &C.
cusations may be brought by the Press-for it
will be miserable waste of time to institute
an investigation and summon witnesses, who,
while declaring that they know the accusations
to be true, throw themselves upon their rights
as public journalists, and refuse to produce the
evidence on which rests their alleged knowledge!

years no such law to take effect until submit

to restrain extravaganza in the Legislature,
and to keep the State from being plunged into

The fact is notorious that the cane is deteri.
Grating in Louisiana, and the production is
falling off. We are told that the cause is to
be sought for in unfavorable seasons, severe
weather, &c. But such seasons are often re-
curing, and why should the supply of great
necessary of life to the millions be left to the
mercy of the weather, which cannot be regula-
ted? 1t does not cheaper my sugar to tell me
that the crop last year was short, owing to a
premature frost!
The truth is manifest. There is not in Louis
lana, Texas, and Florida, enough sugar growing
soil, in the right latitude, for the full supply of
of the present and prospective wants of the
People of the United States and the soil that
has been under cultivation in Louisiana has
been exhausted, just like any other soil must
be exhausted, by the exclusive production OF
one species Of plant. The sugar planter is
constantly taking from his plantation what he
never returns to it; and it must give out. Cot
ton, Rice, and Sugar, are the staples of Louisi-
ana-live stock, orchard products, the growth
of the various grains, are not thought Of
rotation of crops is scarcely ever attended to.
What else could be expected of slave culture
What else could be expected from planting
monopoly, which, protected by heavy duty,
reaps immense profits from the culture of the
cane? 1t is the vast per cent. realized on in
vestment in this culture, secured by raising
the price of sugar by the protective duty, that
stimulates the greed of the planters, who cannot
bear to think of alternating the extravagantly
profitable crop of sugar with the growth Of
other products, that would yield but moderate
profits. The 80 per cent. adj ralorem tax on
the foreign sugar helps them to exhaust the
very soil, now relied upon to produce all the
sugar the country needs.

whether minority Of the Committee had pre-
scented a scheme on which they would stand,
and whether Mr. Letcher intended to sustain
Mr.. Boyce's bill for horizontal tariff for
revenue alone.
Ar Leteher replied, that when a majority of
the Committee of Ways and Means present a
proposition on which they will stand or fall, the
minority will present their substitute for it.
but the latter cannot now present their substi-
tnte Tor a bill which the majority say they will
abandon.
Mr.: Campbell denied that the majority intend
abandoning the principles on which the bill
was founded, and which are set forth in their
report On the tariff.
The Committee here arose, when various
farm amendments were offered, and ordered TO
be printed.
The House then adjourned.

TO tie Editor the National Era:

of the National Era, would say TO them, stand
by IT at all hazards. What though other Jour
nails have yielded to tie current Of the times,
and EAxe rai-e9 their voices against the farteer
extension of Slavery, now that it is fashionable,
the Era has never been anything else but the
able champion OF Liberty.
Remember that the National Era is estab-
ished on slave soil, and it was established there
not without peril. To desert it now, while it is
managed IN the same cool and emil shtened
spirit as 1t has ever been, would be shame to
those who fling it aside for a cheaper paper.
Instead OF abandoning the Era, / would to God
there Gould be more such reliable papers plant
ed, no: only in the slave States, but also in the
free.
Bat, readers Of the Era, lei it never be said
of the wealthy and intelligent sons of New
England, that they, for paltry fifty cents,
abandoned flag OF Liberty planted in the
midst Of the eneIny's country. l highly respect
the Tribune and the New York Ecening Post but

ger OF materially injuring the prosperity Of me-

Now let us see how this immense and rapid
ly-growing want is to be met The cultivation
of the cane was introduced into Louisiana ia
1851. The planters have had the benefit Of
century's experience, and of high protective
duties. enabling them to amass great fortunes.
Besides, one of the great advantages in annex
ing Texas was said to be the extension of the
homesupply of raw sugar. Turn now to the
census of 1850, and note the following facts:
Number of sugar planters in Louisiana 1853,
Florida 958, Texas l65; total 2,678l
Total number of acres employed in the cul-
tivation of cane sugar 100000.

Or, 1912 lbs. to the head-only one-third of

century's cultivation, and an indefinite amount
of protection.
Look at the table-see how the demand
must increase-in 1860, three years more,

For the first twenty-five years of the Govern
ment, new States, free and slave, came in, with
two exceptions, at long intervals, not pari
passu. For the next four years, free and slave
came in, alternating, not under any artificial
merely political pressure, but because their
population entitled them to admission. In
1886 and 1887, Michigan and Arkansas were
admitted within six months of each other
Then two slave States followed in succession
not single free State-then, two free States,
but no slave State-nor has there been one
SINCE because none is ready, Or likely to be.
The Enquirer, therefore, can find no sane
ton for its monstrous theory of equilibrium,
in the original policy of the Government, or in
a fair view of the admission of new States from
the organization Of the Government to this
hour.
That paper has undertaken a mighty labor.
Kansas will not be admitted this session, no
matter what its condition or constitution. But,
Minnesota is more than ready, with popula-
ton emitting it to at least two Representatives,
and we learn that the Committee on Territories
is to report bill for its State organization.
