The SlaveOWner's Declaration.
A PREPARED Ry SOIJTH CAROLINA, AND

=
AS PREPARED BY SOUTH CAROLINA, AND
PROPOSED BY HER AS FITTING TO BE
ADOPTED BY THE SLAVE STATES.
CBy repaired Atlantic Telegraph.
We, the states whose representatives
have subscribed to the following declara-
tion, do hereby assert and affirm:
That all mankind have a perfect apd
equal right to freedom, if they can keepit.
That their being unable to keep it is a
proof that they have no right to it.
That the presence of any coloring mat
ter in skin, as in winter, is proof, offered
by nature of the inferiority of the article.
That we have heard, with unutterable
disgust and contempt, that Professor Owen
considers Adam and Eve to have had col
ored skins, and that we should like to leave
the said professor without any skin at all.
That the lawfulness of slavery is clear
ly and indisputably proved from the Bible,
inasmuch as St. Paul, writing to Onesimus,
a slave, never told him to run away.
That if there were no other reason for
uphelding slavery, the dastardly and syc-
ophantic meanness which would be shown
in Initiating the corrupt and exploded old
mother country in abolishing the institu-
tion is enough to make every real Ameri-
can spit upon the proposal and lynch the
proposer.
That slavery is the most humane insti-
tuition in the world; for, inasmueh as half
the sorrows of white persous arise from
the sorrows of the husbands, wives or
children, in forbididiDg race to have any
husbands, wives or children to call their
own, we deprive that the race Of one half
the suffering we undergo.
That England has no right to say q
word in the matter, while in Ireland there
is Protestant church, and all persons are
hanged who do not attend it; while Welsh
is strictly forbidden to be used in the de-
bates of the English parliament; while
Scotchmen are forbidden to keep unicorns;
and while, close to London itself, she keeps
the natives of wretched island in such
state decentralization and misery that it is
called the Isle of Dogs.
That having thus proved from Scripture,
from philosophy, from philanthropy and
from ethology, that slavery is the noblest
institution in existence and that partri-
otism and self-respect alike forbid Us to
bring it into jeopardo.
We hereby declare:
That We shall have great pleasure in
banding fifty thousand dollars to any one
who will bring US The head of one Abra-
ham Lincoln, and with still greater pleas
ure will we hand one hundred thousand
dollars to any one who will deliver US the
said Abraham Lincoln alive.

In the hunt for office at this Convention
notice many old hangers-op at Washing
ton. Truly, the "rats flee sinking ship"
The Union is virtually gone-pluuder must
somewhere be found. 1t is the curse of
our form of Government; it has killed the
grandest Republic the world has ever pro-
duced, and the warning should be needed

WASHING FLU1D.-The following is rec
commended as an excellent recipe for
a washing fluid Take one pound OF sal
soda, and half pound of unslacked lime,
put them in gallon Of water and boil
twenty minutes let it stand till cool,
then drain off and put it away in stone
jug or jar. Soak your dirty clothes over
night or until they are well wet through,
then wiring them out and rub on plenty OF
soap. 70 one boiler of clothes well COW
cred over with water, add one teacup full
of fluid boil briskly half an hour, then
wash them thoroughly in one suds and
rinse well through two waters, and your
clothes will look better than by the old
way of washing twice before boiling
This Huid 1cM not rot clothes. Thus,
for six cents any one may obtain prep
aration such as hucksters ask a dollar per
gallon Maine Farmer.
