not seem to have occurred to the brilliant intel

the taking should not be piratica the Transports

tolerable photographer, Walker signifies "auy
robbery" and that Cicero who knew something of
tie meaning Of the original word "pirata,' uses
il in speaking of "land thicf"-so that

which is implied in this whole gable about the
Revival OF Rascality-that Slavery does not furnish
sufficient labor to meet the necessities Of those
States in which il now exists by statute-a fact
which many clever Inc Il have vainly endeayored to
hammer into the hard heads of Southern abstrac-

the cotton and tobacco interests until he prstes

And while gagging him, it would be as
well to stop the eloquent but imprudcnt
tongue Of Col. William b. Gaulden, who,
on the 27th ult., harangued his felIow-cres-
lures Of Burke County, Georgia, in favor Of
Piracy. 1.-THE Colonel argued" says the report
of the meeting, that if the slaye.trade between
"the Slave States was considered expedient, it
" was equally just and legal to reopen the African
slayc-trafic." Now appears to US that Gaulden
must, although merely Colonel, have pluck enough
10 furnish couple of MajOrGenerals for a long
and bloody campaign. Unless he really wants men
&c heart and Of conscience seriously TO consider
the wretched wrong and the infinite iDhumanty Of
the Domestic Slaye-Trade, and solemnly and
sharply To bestOw themselves to lis most righteous
overthrow, he must be shy of such provoking COM

splendor Of the advance may by no means atone for
the squslor of the retreat. Nor is The Southern
Atlanta, Gs) COgfederdey in less need Of advice
than the garIulous Gaulden. That h,s,y sheet
also declares that the African Slave-Trade is the
hope and bu.wark Of Southern interests. 1t is
the basis underlying the future greatness and
permsnency Of the Slave States Without its
establishment, the Institution Slavery will soon
become worthless" And here follows fUmi-
