rer, Burgbley, and Sir Walter Mildmay, Chan |
cellor of her Exchequer, for inquiring into the
condition of her bond men and bond women in
Cornwall, Devon, Somerset, and Gloucester,
such as were "by birth Of slavish condition."
and to compound with such "slavish' individu-
ais for their manumission. She raised quite a
snug sum by thus conlerring liberty upon her
white subjects; but she thought less Of this
white blood than did the government OF Eng.
land 26O years after of the niggers, for while
the pure white blood ofEngand had to pay for
being restored to rights which were their own
by the gift Of God, the niggers were given
freedom they were not born for, and hired
gain at wages they were too lazy to earn A
bout the time Elizabeth sold freedom to her
white slaves, England discovered the value OF
blacks, and prosecuting the discovery Tor nearly
800 years, 500 600 of negroes were caught
and put to laber. The results of that labor in
her colonies and islands up, to $780, gave her
increased wealth to the amount of $3,6OO00O
600. No less than 100000 blacks were at work
in the American colonies, 200 ears. and at the
end Of that time, England having obtained all
the profits Of that labor The colonies were as
poor as ever, though the profits were enormous.
After the separation New England enjoyed
the slave trade" and in 1887 Massachusetts,,
in the convention for forming Constitution,
managed to quarrel with the South, because the
latter would not consent to the continuation
OF that State in the negro importing business;
most thriving speculation she was making Of
it, with her rum and fish in exchange for the
articles on the African coast she has since dis.
covered to be men and brothers., and forcing
them into Virginia, Georgia, and other localities
where, at that early day, they were not wan
ted. When the cotton gin Of Whitney was in
vented, together with the steam engine ofWatt
and the improvements Of Arkwright, Crompton
Hargraves, &C., the labor of one man was used
upon one pound OF cotton to card it, one to
clean it, another to woik one spindle. After
the introduction Of those Inventions single
hand could clean $50 pounds, another to card
it, and the third work 200 spindles. Then
commenced the grand commercial revlution in
this country, which has resulted in making her
perhaps all in ALL the greatest power on earth.
In the year 1900, the value OF exported cot.
ton was $5,726, 900; in 1860, the export is not
far from S200,0000o0, the crop about $24O,-
100000. Three quarters Of all the cotton used
in Europe is obtained from this country, and to
show the present and prospective value of this
staple, We find from the year 1885 to 1858,
there We're used in England more cotton in
pounds than ofall the ether textile material ad-
ded, viz, wool, silk, flax and hemp In 49,
SO the total pounds Of these four articles
put into fabrics figured 462, ,6O8, ,l57, while o.
cotton alone that year, we find used ,O79 ,5l9,-
800.
Statistics show yearly larger use of cotton
or rather an increasing per eentage Of that ma
terial in the manufacture of clothing, and for O.
ther purposes, the world over; and in India
where England now gets portion of her raw
Il OH R,,Iz 20 tlok
the amount she receives now is not near as
large proportion of its growth as it was ten
years ago, for the reason that the natives o.
that cline are yearly finding out its value, and
increasing its use among themselves.
England discontinued the slave trade in 1907
and in 1887 abolished it altogether, and New
England was then inoculated with the misera
BILE dogmas, the promulgaton of which had ru
ined the British Islands, and ofwhch to-day
the best minds of England are heartily asham
ed of evec having advocated. The London
Times now boldly blurts out the truth, whlci
it says. must be spoken loudly and energetical
ly, despite the mockings Of bowling can't the
English Abolition scheme is a falure.'
We cannot, step by step, trace the growing
Of this fanatical spark into great political vol
cano over the entire North, belching out fire
and pestilence. It's destructive tendency is nov
moniest by the results around us; and we has
ten to show that this terrible visitation may
commercially, cost the North as dear as it has
cost the planters of the West India Islands.
The fanatics of New England, and all the
proselytes they have made out Of that section
since 1880, are too ignorant to understand th,
charcter OF the negro, to realize his positive in
ferioIity, or to find the place for him that ma
ture designed he should occupy; and they arr
equally ignorant Of the agency OF his master il
producing the important trade relations which
hitherto bound the North and the South to
gether. ......
Taking view of the two sections, we fine
the South far more valuable to the North thar
the latter to the South, for the reason that th
South can live more independently, having
greater resources. We will divide the who'll
country into three sections-the Nor b, nclu
ding the New England States, New Jersey
Pennsylvania and New York; the West Ohio
Michigan, Illinois, Indiana, Wisconsin, Iowa
California, Minnesota and the Territories; AM
the South, the slave States.
Agriculture is the great staple Of this coun
try, and stands thus sectionally. Production
in 1850, according to the census reports Gan in
dication of general average,) were in tn
North, $3.50 to the hand employed; West, $33
t South, $481. The agricultural productions @
the South including the value of slaughtered
animals, in 1850, was S42 per head to popula
ton; those Of the West S5o,25; those of th
North $S4, 4,26. The value of the live stoc
South, in 1850, was $3.50, 795,320; West, SIP,
t 563, ,S51; North, S173, ,Sl2, $50; number fcat
tie in the North in 1850, 5,460,s2O; West, 5,
16l, 1896; South. 13,475.659. To keep thes
cattle in the North it takes per year 3,470bs
Of hay; West, 1850; South, only 10, so mill
{ and genial is the climate. The hay crop Of tn
- North Is a severe tax upon the labor Of tha
! section: while the Northern man is maxim
: hay enough to keep his single cow through tn
winter, the southern laborer has his COW equal
: ly we'll fed, and been abe to grow couple
0 cotton beside, both animals being OF the sam
value when the winter is over.
In 1853 the total exports of the South wer
= S262, $685. ,394, while the North exported onl
:, $40, 0,217, 600, of which $4o,oooO0o was i
s wheat, -four, and corn; but while the Sout
, exported in these products that year some 81;
$4,000, she bought In this line nothing; tn
North, on the contrary, purchased ofthe Sout
II and Canada an amount OF iood equal to all he
, exports in that department, SO chat the $40
Il 0OO000 of food exported went for nothlnj
when figuring up her export surplus.
New England purchases ocd yearly. raisin

in manufactures, yet in 1850 she figured up he
products in that line $I64, $4,000, and she hs
