Internal Scheme to Poison the State
 Volunteers at Jefferson City

The Examiner gives the following de- tails of this diaboIical attempt at wholesale murder, which has been briefly referred to in our colums
 A negro woman who resides in the vi. cinily of the bakery at which the bread for the volunteers al Jefferson City Is baked, informed some of our citizens that a cer- tain white man living here, had made pro- posas to her to poison the troops by pla- cing arsenic in the flour of which the bread is baked, stating to her as an ln- ducement that Frank Blair would then come here and set all the negroes free.
 A plan was at once set to catch the gentleman, with such evidence as would convict him. The woman was told to make an appointment to meet him again that night, which she did, and when the hour arrived, number of our most respec- table citizens were so placed around the house, as 10 overhear what was said with in. The man conversed freely with the woman, stating his.whole plan and object. He said he had been disappointed that day in getting the poison from St. Louis, but that man would certainly be up the next day with 1t.
 When she demurred to the plct as too dangerous, he argued with her 10 show how easy it could be done without detec- ton, her vicinity and access to the bakery giving her ample opportunity of putting poison into the flour without being known. Having heard sufficient evidence to insure the scoundrel secured. He proved to be man named Amos Cope, who-has been in this city for some months. He came here with his family, last winter, from Kansas, in destitute circumstances, and has been employed since then as a labor CT, his wife taking in washing to aid in their support. He was member of the Home Guard, recently formed, and is said to have been useful and efficient. He has been supposed to be a quiet inofensive man, and is generally regarded in this matter as the hired tool of more designing mlsCreantS.
 Of course, when the discovery of the diaboical plot was made known, the troops here were greatly exasperated, and were with difficulty restrained from summary execution of the miserable wretch. But fortunately better counsels prevailed, and the law will be allowed to take its course. The man is now in jail and strongly guar ded. There can be no doubt of his con- viclion, as the evidence against him is pos tive and overwhelming.

s@| Senator Hunter, of Virginia, in a speech in Congress about a year ago, es- timated the annual exports of the slave States at two hundred millions of dollars !; freights paid to Northern vessels on these exports, fourteen millions; freight paid to Northern vessels on return cargoes, seven millions; freights paid same Tn the coast ing trade, twenty millions; manufactures by the North consumed by the South an. nually, four hundred and eighty millions of dollars! He then shows that
 At moderate estimate, between three and four millions of the people of the North States owe their subsst- ence entirely to the commerce of the South, but for which they would be compelled to starve or emigrate. He shows almost that seven millions of the inhabitants of the Northwestern States are also supported by the market for their products afforded by the South, and that the money paid by the Northeastern States for the products of the Northwestern States is obtained mainly from the South; and he thus shows that a large portion of the population of the Northeastern and Northwestern States IS sustained by slave labor. MT. Hunter then proceeds to show that the operation of protective tariffs, and even tariffs for revenue, have thrown the burden of the Government, unequaly upon the agricul- tural States of the South, who, being the chief consumers of the protected articles, have paid the increased price into the pockets of the Northern producers.
 It is to compel us to continue this trib- ute to the end of time that the North pours down it's hordes.
