slavery, by the glut following the influx of
myrisds Of naked negroes, working like the
OK under the goad, aud fed only TO support
the yoke, reducing the price of labor to bare
subsistence. "A full supply Of negro strength
will render the masters Of the domain inde-
pendent Of the poor whites holding neither
lands nor slaves. They must become slaves
themselves TO escape starving.
He intmsted that league has been formed,
covering all the slave States, 10 leave Virginia,

Difficulties in obtaining Cuba, and the con-

Hence, as long as the Southern combination
can dictate q Northern President with their
Southern principles, the Federal power will be
used to promote tho scheme Of foreign con-
quest in their behalf. It will be content to get
Mexico by piece meal, and to wait on intrigue
and the chances Of fllibustering for Cuba.
And now, to bring in a new President 10 be
under the control of the combination, we hear
It announced that the election of Republican
Chief Magistrate by the voice of majority
of the people, in defiance of the diotation thus
proclaimed, dissolvsu the Union; but yield the
President to tho combination, and for the
present the Union may stand.
In my opinion, acquiescence in demands
thus made, tends to produce the state Of things
which can alone tempt any portion of the South
into secession. If fNorthern wealth and poweican
be driven 10 hand over Cuba, Central America
and Mexico, in manacles, to the slave States,
they would then have capital to set up for
themselves, on the principles Of fConstantinople
The arrogance which dares to avow such de-
signs, and to defeat the law Of this and all
other nations to frustrate them--which would
deny to the free States of the Republic the
rights which the Constitution calls on them to
ratioal attempts, would suggest suspicion that
the League assuming to establish a long line
Of Bsrbary powers upon our Southern shores,
felt prepared to make formidable head against
the country by sea and land. They should be
sternly rebuked at once, and not suffered to
arrest for moment the onward progress of
the civilization of the continent. The power
of the Union should assure another destiny
for the luxuriant regions to which they are
looking for their slave empire.
Shield on the Southern Faak.-Voluntary
emigration of free blacks to homesteads pro-
vided by the government of the nation charged
with their destinieS, in some rich region in
Central or Southern America, is suggested as
dependency of the highest Importance to tho
Union.
This plan in his opinion would promote the
safety Of free Institutions there and here, and
close the door forever OIL the danger of dis
solution of the union of the States, or our COM
mercial relations with the free States on this
continent or those of Europe; and crown in the
lapse of years movement now directed to the
extension of slavery and the destruction of
free government, with the glory of furnishing
happy homes to the blacks Of the free States
and those who shall be manumitted from
slavery, the former ending their inferior social
condition and the latter their servitude, in
building up new domain, pregnant with
political and commercial advantage to their
