their school Of politics but in a division Of the
Union. To unite the South and the North OF
/ national measures, involves a degree Of mod
GRAFTON and common sense, to which these in
famatory madmen could not possibly bring
themselves. There must be no moderation
| Bitterness must be intensified. How sllal
this be done, is the grand desideratum Of the
agitation party.
| All that can possibly be said about the alb.
duction of slaves from travellers, has been said
| Every little incident of the kind has been swell
led to its largest proportions, and reeited be-
fore the people, with variations till it has lost
the truth that was in it, frem wear, tear. and
addition. Every inflamatory speech made by
a crazy Abolitionist, tmade for precisely the
same reason that they make their inHamatory
Southern speeches-to get the votes of fanat-
ics,) has been quoted and requoted, till it has
been circulated through every little dirty, six
by nine locofoco sheet in the entire South
Every foul insinnation against conservative
Southern man, has taken the same course. All
that could be made was made of the Kansas
broiFs, SO long as they lasted, to inflame AN
over-credulous Southern mind. Finally, the
Harper's Ferry god-send came, and was seized
upon as the'very thing for strife makers. But
even the Harper's Ferry wonder would have
dwindled into insgnifcance if the Helper
book had not come to its relief. And now,
after all the hard labor used t. initiate both
Brown and Helper (disunionists inserting
straws and blowing with all the wind in their
lungs,) there is still danger that the great bub-
BILE of fanaticism will burst, and that the peo-
pie, North and South will kick locolocoism to
the duee, and return to practical politics.
There must be something done to perpetu-
ate strife and hatred and they impudentIy
call on the trading and industrial classes-the
very men whose voice their continual cry of
''nigger'' has stiAed for so many years. to cut
off their own noses, to oblige the locofoco face.
They call upon Southern men to form organi-
cations of commercial industrial, and even ed
ucational non-intereourse. Some one may say
that others than locofocos favor this idea. We
say, whoever favors it ought to be a locOfoco.
He may not suit that party in some other re-
spects but, Immediately as sectional politics
in the South, belong to them by patent, all
such should go to it or hold their peace. These
everlasting agitators would have the mer-
chants, and manufacturers, and professional
men, and even the schools of the South, break
off all intercourse with the North. .- 7l.r.-...
For a short time, few silly people may be
led away by the preposterous movement; and
some shrewd ones may pretend to enter with
enthusiasm into it. Many treasury fed poll
ticians viii enter into it heart and soul, except
when they wish to buy goods cheap and then,
if they happen to be in a Northern city, and
to fnd the very thing they want, cheaper than
they can get it at home, they will show the re-
verse Of good faith by their works. The bu-
Siness world on an average, has too much sense
to be fooled with such nonsense, and sensible
men Of trade will continue their bushes as if
there were neither, North nor South, buying
their goods and wares just where they can get
them cheapest and employing their teachers just
where they can get those best qualified. BY the
way, we heard some very clever Southern gen
tlemen threatening to go or send North and
get complete supply Of white servants. They
said negro hire had risen so much within the
past two or three years, the owners wish the
hirer to pay them almost as much for one
years service as Il negro would have sold for
twenty years ago, to submi5siyely beg the
Stare to ike with him, to require only so
much work of his ebony exceency, and to
run all risks and pay all damages. They say
they are willing to pay moderate tribute to
the MASTER but beg to be excused from an
oath of allegiance to the negro himself. e
