the enterprise,) we find all the prominent Be-

these men that they had not seen the Compeni

"'uch are the agricultural achievements OF
slave labor; such are the results Of the sum Of
all villianies.' The diabolical institution sub
sists on its own flesh. At one time children
are sold to procure food for the parents; at an
other, parents are sold to procure food for the
children. Within its pestilential atmosphere
nothing succeeds; progress and prosperity are
unknown; inanItioh and siothfulness ehsue; ey-
erything becomes dull, dismal and unprofitable;
wretchedncs5 aud desolation stanl or lie in bold
relief throughout the land. an aspect OF most
melancholy inactivity and dilapidaton btoods'

dice sit enthroned over the minds Of the people

everywhere and in everything, between Delall
ware and the Gulf of Mexico, are the multitu-i
dinous evils Of slavery apparent. s7
"On the other hand, we cohtehd that tfiany
years of continual blushing and severe penance
will not suffice to cancel or annul the shame
and disgrace which justly attaches to the South
in consequence Of slateryA-the drest evil that
ever beiel the land that the South bears
nothing like even a respectable approximation
to the North in navigation, commerce, or man
uractures; and that contrary to the opinion en-!
tertained by ninety. nine hundredths OF her peo-
pie, she is far behind the free States in the only
thing of which she has ever dared to boast-ag-

at seems that the total number OF actual
slave owners. including their entire crew Of
cringing Hck-Spiiles against whcfh we have to
contend is but 347 ,525. Against this army for
the defence and propagation Of slavery, we think
f twill be an easy matter-independen Of tho
negroes who in nine cases out of ten would be
delighted with an opportunity Of cutting their
masters Mroats, and without accepting a single
recruit from the free States, England, France or
Germauy-to muster one three times as large
for its extinction. We hope the matter in dis
pute may be adjusted without arraying these ar
mics against each other in hostile attitude.
