For the True Demo Aggressions from the North.

 The Union must be preserved, was noble sentiment of patriot but how is this to be done if Massachusetts continues through her emigrant aid association her aggressive assaults on the south? They don't seem to be satisfied with Fairly arguing the slave question, but they appear to wish to array against the south the worst passions of the human heart, to excite hatred and ill feelings, their novel writers, their lecturers, their theologians and their politicians all make the slave question hobby for their advancement. They forget in their mad zeal for liberty that the negro is an inferior, and better adapted to lis condition as a slave than any other he can be placed in His rapid increase Is the lrrcfutabe evidence of this Is there any State in this Union that could abolish slavery. It other States would not receive their slaves? l will venture to say, that not even Massachu setts would be willing that every third inhabi- tant should be free negro, if she would, let her employ her 5000 0O0O emgrant aid fund for the benefit of free negroes when expelled from Mary land, Arkansas aad other States, that may md It necessary to expel them If she will do thls will believe her sincere in her professed philanthropy, but if she continues her land spe- cuations in Missouri, Kansas, and other places With view of abolitionizing, she is assaultine our government and should be considered in hostile array against country, by whom in the shape of fSh1ng 601ties and tariffs, she has been peculiarly favored. 1 should like to know the amount that she has received, one directly from the treasury of the United States, and conse- quently from the pockets of the people of the south, the other indirectly. These bounties and tariffs are virtually taking portion of the wages of the blacksmith and giving it to the carpen- ter. There is no State receives more benefit from union or would feel its loss more than Massachusetts; stop her trade with the south, and those so clamarous for the liberation of the negro would soon be bowling for bread those who imagine themselves so free, would soon find that without an inch of soil to stand on, without dollar in their pockets without en- ployment, necessity goading them at every step. that though they don't belong to Mir. Jones or MT. Smith, they are nevertheless the slaves of capital; whoever has the dollars to pay them owns them, and that they are just as much con- troled by the will of the capitalist as the neoro IS by his master; nor is there any more hard ship In making the negro work for his livinr than there IS in necessity's compelling the white man to work for his; in fact, civilized society cannot exist without one mans being subject to the will ot another; it is Gods law. it is right. Then Ii so, how is the storm that is threateninr 10 be averted, how is the Union to be preserved oy Keeping up political equilibrium by a unity ot the south. There are really but two political parties, the American party has no weight or influence particularly in the south, ] nor IS there such difference ia the views of the slave democracy as Greedy calls them, and the Americans as could not be reconciled by convention where all could participate and make platform broad enough for all to stand on, and instead of excusng negro slavery take the ground that it is Gods providence for ,be special good of the negro, which it most assnr- edly Is, or the hundreds of millions exneuded by France, England United States, in the s,,n- | pression of the slave trade would not bava bad the tendency to have increased it in numbers and n horror, so much as to induce a philan- throplc society in England to request the gov- ernment to desist from any further efforts to suppress it.
 The condition of Africa must be known to understand the designs of providence. For much statistical and reliable information as to the condition of Africa, refer to a book written by David Chrsty, Secretary of the Colonization Society, and published in Cincinnati by Hickey, Mallory & Webb 1857.
