may not Be made subsidiary,
instead ofbeing antagonistic. Ito
each other" There IS not
one word here said about free
labo. in the slave States."
"Sir, in the free-labor system
of social organization, the fami>
ly is the unit-the family is COM
posed of the parents and chill
dren. In the slave holding sys>
tenn of organization, the house,
hold is the unit-the household
being composed of family and
slaves, who. are united to the
head ofthe family by the obi
CATION ofthe ownership, and the
yet genller ties ofconstant inter-
course and familiar association.
In the free States, families are
divided into tuo classes, the
capitalists and the laboring class.
The Mboring class sells its SER
vice for its service for a limit
ed period to the capitalist class
for the means ofsubsistence; the
bargain is hard or easy, &c."
=, = ''and in periods
of scarcity and' commercial
pressure, the bargain, on the
part of the laborer is often hal d
indeed, giving ..him not enough
for a comfortable subsistence,
and sometimes starring him out
altogether. In the southern
system of society no such diff
cultv can occur. There the
Iaborer is sure OF shelter-of
raiment, and Of food; for if the
profits of the master do not en-
able him to give him these, the
master must use his capital
capital, and if neither his pros
fills or capital will enable him
to do it, then he must transfer
him to some one else who is able
to provide him with these CONS
forts and necessaries of life"
Here is Mr.. Hunters picture
Of the free and SLAVE States.
Look at it. In the free States
there are two classes-the capt.
taist class and the laboring class.
The mboring class sells its SER
vices to the capitalist class,--the
bargain sometimes so hard that
it starues him out altogether.-
:" In the southern no such diff
Guilty can occur" Why, "The
h5orer there is sure Ornament,
and food" II neither his profits
nor his capital allow him (the
mastery to furnish these he
must sell lin! Sell who?-
Sell the laborer, to those who
can furnish him. Is there such
a class as the Jree-labor class
limited at or alluded to in the
southern States in this analysis"
of the social system of the two
sections? Is there not large
free iaborine class in Virginia,
who sell their services to the
capitalist in the same way pre-
cisely that the laboring class do
in the free States? Has Mr. Hun
ter made any exception Of thema
but is not the assumption that If
thew are not furnished with shell
ter, raiment, and food, they are
sold to those who can furnish it?
'They belong to the household
| might rest the argument
here, but Mr.. II. does not; he is
determined not to be misunder-
stood. He next draws his
picture of the governmentofth the
free and slave States.
RI am fearful of tresspasslng
on your space TOO much by quo,
ting whole paragraphs, and shall
only quote such parts in Mr.. H's
language as will convey his idea
or fill his picture. If you have
room / wish you would insert

me undernmany obligations, by
kindly conserving to let me re-
ply through your paper, TO your
structures on nv letter in regard
so r. NJ. 7. Hunters speech,
and other matters therein. You
say of me, 'that the charge is
SO utterly destitute of founda-
tion,". sc. Again: "yet Mr..
P. has the arnnt of caadOr to try
to wrest," &c. Mr.. P. knew
he was disappearing, &c. l
should have been disposed to
complain of this language had |
not known that some person
bad 10 do the tough work of
your party, and perhaps this
had been assigned to you. |
need notresort 10 the use fap-
probrious epithets to sustain my
position; truth requires no such
aids. My only regret is, that |
shall have to convict you OF a
species Of duplicity that will,
hereafter, cause even your
friends to suspect your aSser>
tons. My promise is 10 use
no more discourteous language
towards you, than you did To-
wards me.
In your last paper, you say,
':He (Hunter,) is accused Of
saying that the Shareholder own
ed the laboring white man,
| did'say that your Democratic
Senator Hunter, in order to
make a logical argument, Gsso>
med that the slaveowner owned
them call that labor are en-
braced in the household" |
also said, GAS for Hunter he
was born and raised among
slaves" &c., ''in his youth
INDUCED in the manly luxury
Of whipping one occasionally
TO develop his physical powers
and elevate his chivalry,-hat
been twenty years in Congress
that he was now about to
mount the President horse, it
would not be surprising if he
imagined that he and his neigh-
bors owned all the working
classes OF Virginia, UNITED IN
THE HOUSEHOLD" That Stea-
ley says, Stree labor is only a
polite name given TO slave" p
You admit the charge against
Stealey is true.
Mr.. Hunter, in his speech,
spoke Of the commerce of the
United States-the manner in
which each section contributed
to it-referred to the history
of slaveTy-declared it to be
the normal condition Of society,"
and referred to the agitation Of
the subject. Then he drew
two pictures, first, one the so
coil system Of organisation OF
society in the free labor States;
then of. the social system of Or
ednizdtion in the slave States.
Secondly, he drew a picture OF
the government in the free hbor
STATES, then of. the g0ucrnment
of SIGrc States.
These pictures are in word
painting, and so clearly drawn,
the impartial reader cannot mis-
take them or the idea they con-
vey. And these are the only
two pictures he draws in his
speech, Of the society and gov
erment Of the two sections
Where he alludes TO the free
labor and the universal suffrage
ofthc slave States as enjoyed by
,rhi,a mon. he REFERS 70 the FREE
! labor class not alluded 20 in his
pictures Of the two sections
ard there is no forced construc>
ton by which you can pat them
in, without destroying the sym:
metry Of the argument, Now:

, The leading object Of our pa
per is, and will be, to fight for
the rights of western Virginia,
for the rights of down trodden
humanity for the rights OF the NJ
E. Church on the slavery ques-
tion,for the up-building OF sound
conservative principles, and for
the destruction and humiliation
OF a false democracy everyo
where. We intend to "pick
our flint" and keep on firing
each week until every bogus
democrat in the laid boilers
"'nuf.!p We will lash bogus
democrats till their backs are
sore. Democracy has wcll-nigh
ruined the country, and it is high
time that the different parties
who oppose the mis-rule of this
corrupt, party unite their forces
as one man. GA long pull, a
strong pull, and pull altogeth-
err" should be our motto. Let
our enemies call US black re-
publicans, abolitionists, or even
traitors, if they choose. Let
a few timesserving politicians
stop our paper,-but let the
people sustain US, and we will
fight on in the good cause.
