we except California. The number of
representatives from California is two,
which, added to two Senators, are four
electoral votes. The number of Repre-
sentatives from the five slave States is
sixteen, which, together with two Sena-
tors, make twenty-sfx electoral votes, be-
ing in the ratio of six and third to ono,
and a majority of twenty-five.
The whole number of shareholders in
the United States, in 1850, WAS 346,O4s :
tho number Of voters is, therefore, much
smaller But counting them all as yoters,
they are less than the number of freemen
who voted ut the last Presidential election
in New England, without including Yer.
mont. They were less than the number
who voted either in Ohio or Pennsylvania,
and less than two-thirds of the number
who voted in New York. The aggregate
vote of the eleven slave States, Maryland,
Virginia, North Carolina, Georgia, alabama,
Mississippi, Louisiana, Floridu, Arkansns,
Delaware and Texas, was less than that of
the State of New York and yet those
States are entitled to seveuty-nine eleCtor-g
al votes, and New York but tbirty-five.-
The three States Of Massachusetts, Penn
sylvania and Ohio, or even the two States
of Pennsylvania and New York, cast a
larger popular vote than all the slavehold-
ing States. by thousands. The three first
named States have sixty-three electoral
votes, aud the two last, sixty-two; while
the fifteen slave States have one hundred
and twenty.
Hear what Henry A. Wise says about
Virginia during his canvass for Governor,
in 1855:
"You all own plenty of land; but as
poverty added to poverty poor land added
to poar land, and nothing added to moth
ing makes nothing, while the owner is
talking politics at Richmond or in
Mt White Sulphur Springs, the land
grows poorer, and soon brings me-
grues and land all under the hammer,
you have the owners skinning the negroes,
and the negroes sktnning the land, and
they all grow poor together" "You have
relied alone on the single power of Agri-
EculturO, and such agriculture; your ridge
patches outshine the sun; your inattention
to your only source of wealth has scared
the bosom of mother earth; instead Of
having to feed cattle on n thousand hills
you have to chase the stump-tailed deer
through the sehge patkhes to procure 4
tough beef steak"
Such being so true statement of facts,
do ne not plainly see the cause of all this
turmoil and confusion. The scepter has
departed from the slaveholding States, and
they seem determined, like Milton's Angel,
"better to rule in hell than serve in
heaven i
The slaveholding States have more ter
ritory, more electoral votes, according to
the white population, and have had most
of the offices and emol0mepts Of power
since the foundation of the government,
and have the enacting of most of the laws
for their own benefit, and yet, forsOoth,
because they cannot rule the country they
