TuE Baltimore Caiaohc Mirror puts forth the
following sound aud we'll djgested views on the
nigger question in an article on " Union saw
ing"
1t is madness. or worse than modness, for out
siders to attempt to put down the institution OF
slavery in the Southern States. As well said by
a distinguished son of Massachusetts, at n great
Union meeting in Boston, none of the agitators
in any quarter have suggested any rational
disposition of the slave question. They have not
looked bcynd the immediate act Of relieving the
slaves, per tas alH atlH, from bondage. What
would become of this four millions of freedmen
suddenly emaneipatcd? How would they be dis
tributed. and what kind of relations would they
bear with the white race? Would they become
industrious, mcritorious citizens, or would they
go to swell the ranks of paupcrs and thriItess
and vicious classes getting already too numerous
over the land? What would become OF the cot
ton and sugar interests? Are the free negroes
as a body, ia this country and in the West Indies,
in a better condition than the slaves as Il body
These are questions that should be well con
sidered not only by every lover Of his country,
but by those who assume to bc eminently the
friends Of the negroes. If these persona are de-
terminod To effect the abolition OF slavery, or the
dissolution OF the Union, they, with all their in
difference to the means, should look TO the end.
If the Union is dissolved, slavery will not thereby
be abolished, but the finest country in the world
may Ibid long farewell to all its greatness
