under cultivation and all in prime order for
bearing fruit this season. Each acre will
average leeeo vines, giving graad fetal of

abont 1850 pounds per acre, which will make
this years crop, at the same rate, not less

the present crop now in the ground, within
the circuit of a few miles around Oakland,

Democratic Notion of Slavery.

The Sheboygan Lake Shore Adcocate
transfers an article to its columns as ed
itorial, contrasting the condition Of the
sewing women Of the North, with the
female slaves o. the South, in which it
is attempted to be shown that the ne.
crosses of the South enjoy a paradise
compared with our northern needlewo-
men. This is precisely the stuff south
crm journals are in the habit of putting
forth, that the condition OF the white la.
boring classics OF the North is worse than
the slave population of the South
Hence the idea has often been breach
sd by Southern men that it would prove
a blessing tc, the poor white population
were they reduced to chattelship. 1t
seems some of cur democratic North
ern donghfaced journals have caught
the same idea, and hence eXpatiate on
the happiness OF the female slaves of the
South, and draw doleful pictures of nor
thern women who are necessitated to
work for living.

American Tract Society.

The anniversary of the American
Tract Society, held last week in New
York, afforded another exhibition ofthe
pro-slayery subserviency of that man
9th religious corporation. The life
members of the society are the qualified
voting members; but these are scatter
ed over many different States of the Tn
ION, and therefore, cannot attend the
meetings without great Inconvenience
and expense; so the pro. slavery politi-
tons and cotton ministers, in and
about New York city, control this insti.
tuition their own way. AS a specimen
OF the moral degradation of the society,
u resolution was introduced affirming it
a duty to express disapproyal of the at
tempt now making to re. open the Afri-
can slave trade; the resolution was yo-
ted down by an Overwhelming majority.
From the reported proceedings ofthe
socletysin the New York city papers, it
seems the conduct of the majority
would have been disgrace in Tam
many Hail. The minority were hooted,
Kissed and insulted, in the style Of i'm
lShed rOwdyism. Such are the fruits Of
Christianity, that undertakes to carry
the sin of slavery on its shoulders. All
the other great national benevolent so
cieties, during the anniversary week
conduct themselves orderly; they have
no completely with slavery. But the
pro-slavery Tract Society disgraces the
Christianity ofthe country by its disor-
DERBY and dlscourteous proceedings
The American Tract Society sends out
publications on the wickedness of dan
eng, tobacco chewing, card playing,
dc, but refuses to utter word against
the Slave Trade, notwithstanding it has
been pronounced piracy by the laws of
civilized nations. Such base obseuuien
cy to slave drivers and cotton grow.
ers, justly merits the contempt of every
moral community.

Massachusetts Isieation.

TIE amendment requiring two year'
lrcsidcnce OF fUrei $hers as a qualification
for tile right ofvotng, having prevailed
ut tie late election, our democratic
ncigl oors are striving 10 make some
capital out of it. There are some facts
and figures, which it would be well to
cons. Ter, before arriving at conclu-
sion ia the matter. 1t is true the Re
publIcans of Massachusetts might have
defea ed the amendment had they chose
50 to 10; it is also true the democrats
could have defeated it, had they chose
to have done so.
There are in the State Of Massachu-
sets over 100000 voters; Of this num-
Der less than 10000 were polled on the
amendment question.
The democrats at the GubernatoIial
election last year polled over $4,000
votes. The number Of votes given
against the two years amendment IN the
late election, scarcely comes up to one
h1flT thcdemocratic vote in the State :
The democracy before the election were
xociicrous (protessedly) against its adj
option-why did they not vote it down ?
If one half of the democrats had really
desired its defeat, they could have done
ii. AS the figures now stand, it is i'm
possible to Judge which party voted
most largely for the COMMUNICATIONS
ocrats or Republicans. Nearly all the
republican papers of the state, az well
as most of the leading Republicans, OPP
posed the amendment TO alledge that
the amendment was carried by the Re
publicans, is an assumption without
proof, as will be seen by an examina
ton OF the vote, compared with the vote
of parties in the State. 1t must further
more be borne in mind that there still
remains i strong Know-nothing party
in Massachusetts,, which in every State
election, is distinctive from the other
parties. This party, most likely, threw
its entire strength for the pro scription

The Causes of the European Difficulties.

Comparatively but few persons in this
country fully understand the causes for
the attitude of hostility which some
of til" principal powers of Europe now
occupy. The difficulties are 80 compli-
cated-so mixed with national policy,
as render them not of easy simplifica-
ton and comprehension on this side of
the Atlantic. 1t is only those who have
been attentive readers of European
news, and who have acquainted them
selves with the governmental policy of
nations, who can understand distinctly
all the matters which go to make up the
war issue. When asked, therefore, to
give the cause for the array of armies,
ready for the deadly conflict, the ques-
ton may be answered in general
terms, but not SO easily to correct un-
derstanding of all the real issues. The
principal belligerantS as well as the less.
er ones, have each policy peculiar to
themselves-which may be the enlarge
ment Of dominion, or preservation o.
present territorial limits against en-
croachments; tie emancipation of The
people from the mis-rule of despoti(
power, or the more complete humbling
Of the pc ople to the rule of their mas
ters.
One of the objects which France
doubtless expects to achieve is addition
al territory on the Rhine; Russia has
for years been anxious to acquire terri
tory on the Bosphorus. The hostile
feeling between Austria and Sardinia
arises from the directly opposite policy
of the two governments the former be
ling adverse to popular government, the
latter in favor OF investing the people
with rights and privaleges of liberia
cast. The Itali;n States desire to throw
off the yoke of Austria and assert theii
independence.
