ry are fast ebbing out; and more: they
are past redemption. An inferior stock is
taking their place-a thinner blood is fill
ing their veins. All this is but the natu-
raj result of long-standing and well-de-
fined policy of the State which presents
mainly three phases-viz: ease, luxury,
idleness, and insolence, and the largest
means by which to Cypress, for the higher
white class; the grinding d0sA to the dust
and the crowding out of the poor white
class; and the hard pressure-a pressure
harder than is placed upon the brutes
among them-of the poor, enslaved black
class. This is the policy of South Carroll
ma, and while it has resulted in this terri
| BILE decrease of the whites generally, the
blacks, on the other hand, are growing,
physically, mentally, and numerically,
stronger yearly; and this, too, by reason
of their superior stamina and natural in
crease.
We are truly curious to know what will
be the condition of affairs down in the Pal
metto State a few years hence, now that
the decrease of the whites and the natural
increase of the blacks are fixed facts, and
the slave-trade is also in full blast there.
Africanization, which must be the result
not only in South Carolina but throughout
the entire South, would be popular with
us whites, even here in the North, were il
not for fear of consequences-ult ultimate
consequences. There is the rub. In most
that emanates from the press and states
men North, very little is put in for the poor
| enslaved black man, and that little has no
shadow of Justice, and but small grain Of
mawkish pity that he was ever such both
er to the national fraternity and good
neighborhood. No one word have they
about the injustice done to him. The
main burthen of the North on the subject
is the preponderance of negro popula-
ton and the horrors, ultimately, of ne
gro instruction. Attenuation of the
South is now the darling black baby of the
South and the great horror of the argus
eyed North. Perhaps we of the North
Al. T.
Distance lends enchantment to the view"
The South intends to have the service
of the blacks regardless of consequences.
The North would have no objections
none whatever-to this, if the negro could
be used to advantage-used up, entirely
up, and then put out of harms way.
The vigilant North is more alarmed than
even the South at this new discovery, this
wonderful and increasing numerical diSpar-
ity between the whites and the blacks
South; and when poor Irish John Mitchell
SO strenuously advocated the propriety, the
necessity, of every white man South to
own his black man, the press North rated
him sOundly-not so much for his doctrines
as for fear of consequences should they
prevail. Mitchell, poor dog, was driven
from his post, but there is every reason to
believe that the fulfllment of his desires
will be more than realized. But notwith-
standing this, poor South Carolina, in her
rags, faded lace, and past chivalry, already
feeble and diminutive, is growing less and
beautifully less. Her destiny is sealed.
Africanization, no matter whether by nat
ural increase or foreign importation, or both
combined, is her certain fate. Let the ma
ton put on sackcloth and ashes as it weeps
over her grave, and when her tears are suf-
fcently dried, let her look round for the
next one of Cardinals sister States who
shall follow, in her turn, to the same bourne
from whence not one of them shall ever
| return.
