YANCEy ON COTToN-GR0wENG.

BY way of justifying the existence and perpet-
uatOn of Slavery in the Southern States, aud its
extension into all the Territories now belonging to
the Union, or hereafter to be acquired, Mr..
Yapcey, in his Cooper Institute speech gave an
elaborate account of the products, climate and in
dustry of the Cotton States This account is Lotless
remarkable for what it contains than for what ii
omits. According to Mr.. Yancey, the cotton
growing States are cursed or blessed with climate
utterly unsuited to the constitution of white men,
The temperature of the Summer ranges according
TO his account, from one hundred and ten to one
hundred and thirty degrees of Fahrenheit, render
ing 1t utterly impossible for white men to labor in
the fields. Even bare residence without labor,
is full of danger. Dir. Yancey describes the pOpu-
latiOn as consisting of slave owners Oyerseers, aud
negroes. The save-Owners, to escape the deadly
effects Of the Summer climate; to get rid of the
miasm, the fever, and the desperate hazard of
life which a Summer residence on their estates
would involve, all fly to the North, and
in our watering places and city hotelsi
or in travelling up and down our rivers and rail
roads, seek to ospire some yigOr into their debil
tated constitutions. The Overseers, who are
obliged to remain behind, ara able to keep them
selves alive only by the greatest precautions. They
pass through the fields umbrella in hand, or watch
the labOrmg negroes from under the shade of soma
friendly tree. How they muster strength to do
the necessary hosgug, it is difficult to conceive.
This, by the way, is our observation, not Mr..
laneeys.l
AT the same time, this climate, so fatal to the
white man, is exactly adapted to the negro. lie

TODAY,

The popular judgment on the great issue made
| up between the Republicans and the Slavery Ex-
tensiOnsts has already been distinctly pronounced
it remains only to be formally recorded. There
no remaining rational hope of defeating the cleo
ton Of Lincoln and Hamlin by the People on the
9th of next month. For it is idle to dream of an
intoxcation Of success that may preclude vigilance
and paralyze eXerton-One has but to open his
| eyes in order to assure himself that the victors
| work. and will work, all the more earnestly and
generally that their triumph is already secure The
October results in Pennsylvania and Indiana four
years since did not stay the hands ofOur adverares
nor will those Of16G0impelthe Wide-Awake hosts to
arrest their march on the very steps of the Capitol
Effort is not only always easy but always abundant
when success is seen to be assured and at hand
We shall poll more votes for the Lincoln Electors
in every State Of the Union-alke in Vermont and
Virginia-because Of our annihiIating victories in
the great Middle States last Tuesday.
Tire contest being thus virtually ended-for there
are not ten men of decent intelligence to-day in
this City who st cherish a serious hope of defeat
ing Mr.. LincCln's electicn-we submit that there
are certain eectiOneering appliances of the last
few months which ought, for the Country's sake,
to be now laid aside and forgotten; since, while
they can no longer effect their original purpose.
hey are yet pregnant with the seeds Of the ver5
grayest c0lanities
Among these is the device Of representing the
Republicans as band OF crazy fanatics, intent on
be immediate and compulsory Abolition of Slavery
in the South by the force Of Nodhern coercion #
not through the direct exerlion Of Federal power.
The "Helptr" cry by which the Organization Of

AGREED.

Mr.. Leverett Sal'onstall, Chairman of the Bel
Everett Massachusetts, State Committee, wrote
officially on the 9TH inst, to his brethren in Pha-
delphia as follows:
1--WE venture you that the defes Of Foster would
be very prsudc chances OF carrying Msssach
November and would from point Of view, be extremely
detrimental to prospects in New York and New Jersey"
We go seldom have the pleasure Of agreeing
with l.. S. that we cannot resist the impulse to
say that he could hardly have expressed our con-
vctoDs more exactly than in the above. We con-
slider "the defeat of Foster" "cery prejudicial to
:" to- the Bell-Everett "chsnces of carrying Mas
"sscbusetts in November"-as much so as 3
bullet TIM ough the heart of dead dog would DO
to the "cbances" of his running swiftly and bark
ing viyaciously the next day. And that said defeat
is extremely detrimental to" the Bell-Eyerett
prospects ia New-York and New. Jersey" is
another patent fact. The prospects" q week
ago were that Fusion would lot be beaten mora
than Fifty Thousand in this State; nov, tho
chances" are that the Liucoln msjonty may run
up to the pelghborhood of Ole Hundred thousand
