II any one will anylize the articles embraced
in the amount of S9G, G,826,2o9, belonging alike
to the labor OF the free aud slave States he will
find that at least one third is justly the products
of slave labor.-We have, therefore, the fact
that out of S3l6, 30, 6lo Of exports of domestic
industry, nearly $25o,0O000O, is furnished by
those States known as slave States.
These are the figures which exhibit facts
that every Northern man should consider who
prefers his own country and his own Union to
any other. We can readily understand with
Mr.. Stewards hostile feelings to fifteen States Of
this Union, how is It that he should prefer the
prosperity of Europe. But he has permitted
his malice and hatred, to overreach the in crest
orhis own people. If we have no sugar and
cotton to export, what becomes of the deserved
ly proud city of his own State? Take away
from our exports the sum Of $191, SOC, ,555, the
single article Of cotton, aud tell US what ruin it
would spread Are Mr.. Seward and his fol
lowers SO short sighted as to suppose that only
the producers Of the article will be affected by
its destruction?-Eve interest in the United
States would feel the shcck, and the CONNER
cial world itself would tremble under the ca
tastrpho. T'hese figures require no argument
to satisfy rejecting men that our discords are
driving lis to ruih They appeal with force
that every sec ion can understand. ,r,.Ie
But suppose we raise the curtain and look
beyond this present state Of united happiness,
united interest, and united prosperity, ard see
what lies behind. Suppose Mr.. Seward and
his followers succeed in diSuniting this people,
who are the greatest sufferers? At present the
foreign commerce Of this country is at the
North; the capital to carry it on is furnished by
the S'u h When we become Separate and, it
may be, hos lie nations, the scene will be chain
ged The Southern young man will be educa
ted to do in this business what now almost ex-
clusively belongs to the Northern. Tue very
institution Of slavery may have some influence
in taking away from young men fthe South
the necessity to follow commercial employment
and hence, there is not that stimulant there
which exists in the North,
Let two separate governments follow the pol
icy Of Mr.. Seward; which will as certainly take
place as the night succeeds the day, and where
now the South appears to be langdd all will be
life, energy, and activity. The great law of
necessity will urge them to policy which, if
they had followed their interest, they would
have adopted long ago. The interest of the
Southern people will be exclusively free trade;
they will have no necessity to build up this or
that domestic industry by bountes Or protec-
tive tariffs, and hence the North will lose what
is now the greatest source Of their weath-the
home market. a..
In looking over the classification we have
presented OF the industrial interest Of each Sec
ton, it will be found that New England, and in
fact, most of the Northern free States; furnish
but little Of our wealth as exhibited by the ex-
ports. The question is suggestive, in what,
then, does the annual wealth of the North con-
sist? They are an industrious people, and Ger.
tainly must make something. 1t is answered
in fact that they supply the home market with
those articles that are not imported from for
eign countries, and their amount is millions
To the Union they are indebted Tor this wealth,
without It, their industry would come in COM
petition with other countries, and under which
they would be able to stand. Take an illustra-
ton in an article of cotton manufactures sup-
pose there was no tariff at all, what would be-
come Of that interest in the free States2 Capt.
tai and labor would both feel the blow. In
the South the reverse would take place; capital
and labor would both be benefited. And so it
is with every article that could be mentioned.
We only point out these things to show the
folly ofcontinuing this controversy of'frrepres-
sble conflict" Those who are engaged in it
will certainly bring ruin upon their section,
while they may open new avenues to wealth
in the section they are seeking to destroy.
We present the figures and fact, for the
rejecting men Of the North. They can not
deceive you. IL as we think, they mus
assuredly show it is to your interest to continue
this Union with your Southern BRETHREN 1t be-
comes you, then to let them have peace on this
slavery question. They can live without you,
then, so far as interest is concerned. You will
feel materially the separation. The question is
simple. one. To the North itarpeals to their
common sense aud common interest. To the
South it appeals only to their safety and the
protection of their firesides If the question
was submitted to jury Of twelve honest men,
they would not hesitate upon their verdict;
nor do we believe that the North is prepared
to take course which is guided by fanaticism
and controlled by madness.
