Among the many virtues or distinctive char
acteristics of a people IN whom there Is much
that is good. with some exceptions, which are
common to frlil humanity, 1t IS rather sur
prising what desire The new-fedged import
ed rulers OF South Carolina have OF showing up
the superior civilization of the North. and Inc
unprogres+iveneSs OF the unfortunate SouIheIn
people. Senator Sawyer. in recent ietter 70
the New York Ledger, dwels upon naLl9iial
resources of the South and OF S6Ith Caroliha
in particular: but takes care to make us out d
very ignorant people in the science vi aSrlcul-
tire, stating that the oversecrs VINO lcFmeriy
sconrrcd tSe slaves, knew less OF agriculture
than the slaves, &c. Since the war we nave
heard of many Northern capitalists COM
inr South, each desiring. to use their own Ian
pnagc, of running cotton plantation. They
have used the labor Senator Sawyer euloSizes
as so intelligent. Many of them were hard
task masters, and retired after losing thou
sands of dollars, their superior agricultural
knowledge being of no avail, and their high
estimate of the Intelligent labor of the South
being decidedly changed by sad experience.
Why will Northern writers, who are really
strangers to the manners and customs of Our
people, continue to misrepresent US? It is
Just such language, made In the spirit Of will
