TRUTH FITLy SpoKEN.-The Black Repub
lcan leaders and press are libeling the nom
shareholders of the South, and alledgng that
their support Of slavery degrades white la
Dor; that poor laboring men are not respect
ed and cannot rise to distinction. Here is
word just spoken by r. NJ. r. Hunter, of
Virginia, in the u S. Senate:
Nor is it true that the institution of slav.
cry makes manual labor on the part of the
whites despicab|e in the slaveholding States
There is no country on earth in which hon
est labor, as believe, is more respected; and
of this am certain, that every white labor
er in the slavehoding States is moro nearly
on an equality with evrey other man in the
community than every white aborer in the
North is on terms of equality with every
other man in the North"
The Black Republican lbellers of the
white laborers of the South may put that in
their pipes and smoke it. Every word of it
is true--knowh to be SO by every man who
has ever worked in the South. No man in
the South is excluded from the best society
on account of his calling or poverty, ty,-but
the brightest and richest are if they are
guilty of conduct unbecoming gentlemen.
