Slave Territory.

The Mississippi Democrat objects TO re-
claiming any Of the swamp lands in that
State, as suggested BY Gov. Melville, un>
til the African Slave trade is re-opensd, kT
the reason that this would be practicable
abo!itionism.' The Democrat argues that
the reclamation Of any lands in this State,
where slave labor could be proftably en-.
ployed, would have direct tendency 10
abolitionise the border States BY attracting
from their supply of slaves? It would
employ every slave at present in the whole
South to work the available land in Mis-.
sissippi, Louisiana and Arkansas to say
nothing Of Texas and other new Territory
in prospect
Again the same Journal remarks:
'The repeal of the unconstitutional lava
prohibiting tho African slave trade is be.
coming a necessity in the South. Every
