ta@ea elsce ia karyland under this law, and it has
azessed all the tender ssmpa.Aies Of those who
~cald degrade and impoverssh she white pecpfe Of
the South. This sympathy Fer the sesre has re-
salted in the iatrcasctioa in the Hease &c Repre-

"Now for q contrast. In Connecticut, if a naa
or woman happens to be too poor to take care Of
himself or herself the State generally provides fer
taking care of this unfortunate individual by SELL
ing him or her to the lowest bidder, the successful
bidder being entitled to the service of the person
sold The sale is uaade only for one year, so that
the poor unfortunate IS act allowed to exc out life
under one master The man or vca.aa who be-
comes pauper under the poor laws Of Connecticut,
virtually becomes slave the balance of his or her
days This is the fate of white people in Cennec-
ticut, aad perhaps ether New England and North
ern States yet the compassion of taose who have
50 much sympathy to expend in behalf Of negroes
guilty of ofenses against the law, has never been
awakened to the fate of white men and women, ~ho
are virtually sold into perpetual slavery" -.
A Remedy for Dull Times. ''''.' ''''i'''5'
The Montgomery Aduertiser pertinently says:
The business u,sn who are just now lamenting the
prostration of trade, and whising for affair breeze
Of active business seem to think their trade will be
bettered by auseless innctivity and general wait
ing for something to turn up" Instead Of seek
ing for customers by giving publicity through the
newspapers to the fact that they have, goods for
sale, they seem content to plod along, unwisely,
prefsrring slow. sales, to The quickened trade
which might be commanded by judiciously making
known their places of business, where the people
could be assured of being supplied with goods at
the market rates. The remedy, therefore, for dull
times, is to advertise" what you have for sale.

is here ON business connected with South Carolina,
among other things Immigration to that STATE and
the relief of postmssters who had eithermade re-
turns to the Federal Government authorities which
mscerried or to the Confederate authorities which
afe ignored, and who are now harassed by Gov
ernment claims. Governor Orr is not in favor Of
the adoption of the constitutional amendment by
South Carolina, or by any other State, but favors
graceful submission to anything tho conquerors
