from the Cecil (Md) Win: 80

from the Cecil (Md) Wing: -,
-" II tha statistics Of negro population in
the New England States prove anything. they
prove that emancipation banishes from the
State ~ weli the colored fres ~ slave pop.
ulation. This stStistics Of population Of Penn.
sylvanix mors conclustvely prove this to be
the case. With An area Of more than four
ing on each other. the latter has = nee vs negro
population Of upwards Of 1900 more than the
former. Facts are stubborn things, and one ia
worth world of theory. And what do the hg.
ures provef Why, that the free States are not
free negroes also; while, on the other hand, tho
slave States arc not only stocked with slaves,
but are abundantiy supplied with free negroes
also. The reason Is obvious. The slave Siatss
are nndev monopoly Of the masters, Who con.
stantly discriminate against white lsberers,
showing them out Of their employ, and BY thus
excluding white men the owner Of slaves ore
ates, purposey, negro social system that at.
fsShss odi3T to manual labor which rspsls the
to H. Hence you dpd free negroes but sparssly
scattered through the Northern, while they
abound in ths slave Ststes."
Three months ago, when the Star was resist
ing the law for tbs abolition Of slavery in this
Dstric', II insisted, day after day, with angry
and stupid itsrstion, that IL would "aoed US
with free negroes" We pointed out, at the
time, that slavery had had no tendency to keep
free negroes out Of this District, that they had
been steadily increasing here twithstsndine
the eIistence Of slavery, and that the census
statistics proved that there were more free
negroes In the slave States than in th, free
States The Star refused to see anything, o,
hear anything, but continued its howl about
free negroes" iu which It was sustaiued BY
the National intsllg1scer, and by the City Coun
ellis (siuce disposed Of by the people at the
municipal elcction)
The Star now finds the views, which, when
announced by the National Republican in March
wore aitogether intolersbls, exactly the thing
when announced In June BY the Cecil Whig.
