DAILY NEWS. CHARLESTON:. MONDAY MORNING, SEPTEMBER 11, 1805. Tiik Qi'K-sTioN" as to the ultimata effects of eman cipation on tho negro rue.? continually arises, und thcro nro various oploloa?aatott?i?ltttloti. Tuca? ? aro (greatly influenced by individual fooling? Mon inlluoncod by a sentiment of roiMigiuuKso to tho negro?which feeling, however, strangely enough, exists to tho greatest extent among those who havo had the least to ?1?> with them?have a com mon liolicf that they must ultimately perish; that they cannot staml tin; trials of freedom?cannot practice tho Hclf-govcrnmcnt necessary to subsist ence und well-being?cauuot resist the pressure of a constantly advancing competition from tin- la borers of the North and Europe, and ?net yield, therefore, as lighter bodies yield to denser,: and, accepting thin solution, they arc ready to concur in measures, yield to tendencies, that lead to that result. For ourselves, however, we must h.*i.v we arc not willing to accept of that solution. There aro many reason;-, we confusa, that indicate it, but they arc not necessarily conclusive. Rotations may bo con ceived of, entirely consistent with the well-being of both the raced here, which might be sufficient to sustain the weaker; and the conviction to the con trary is so repugnant that wo would yh'ld to a conviction ?if its necessity with great leluctitnc?;. ] flnr ,.<i'?..?-?t?i ostt/iia, su rai, have liccii much ad- , dressed to tho object of allowing the importance | of the e.olorcil population. This we have chielly done by efforts to show that he is ho indissohibly asHOeiativ? with us, we cannot he torn apart with out irreparable damage to society. Hut perhaps more ei'.icient reasons may be deduced from con siilorntions Of individual interest. Tliis is a potent principle. It muy be unworthy. It were certain ly to be wished that men and states could net from higher motives; but experience would seem to show they cannot. It comes down on human actions like a law of nature; impresses them like a great physical fact, which there can be no moral motive strong enough to overe?une; and as we feel tolerably assured of the course of a people whom wo have come to be assured of the course to which thoy conceive their personal interests points, we ?would avail ourselves of this moat potent pr.nciplc, and show that we all have distinct personal and pecuniary interests in tho support and preserve? ti'jn of our colored race. That interest consists in iti tendency to sustain j tho value of our vested interests. Most people ' Iiavo a general notion that population is in some j Way necessary to tho wealth of states; but few, j we presume, arc aware how simply it is of wealth, ' tho o:ic aiilhViont and necessary condition. The importance of Una element is moro apparent in rudimentary forms of society, and few fail to per- i ceive that a vast domain, utterly valueless to its ono inhabitant, becomes of value when there arc ] two, increases with a third, and rises in value with the rising lido of population, without the ulight?!;it change in its condition. But tho con tinuance of this relation between population and valuo in established conditions of sodoty is not ao goneroUy perceived ; and yet, it certainly does continue. There is a necessary and constant rela tion between the estimate?! value of property and the number of people connected with it, and a change occurring in the one as necessarily occa sions a corresponding change iu the other, as ef fects do follow causes. Tho fact ia more clearly perceived in the value of laud. A very slight examination of the census reports, of this and other countries, will show that the value of overy tract of country, per acre, is in strict proportion to tho peojte on it ; and what, perhaps, will seem more singular, the number of people, in tho present state of money in the world, will indicate with tolerable certainty the money valuo of the land on which they live. In those States of tin's Union, for instance, where there arc ten to tho srpiaro mile, the average value of land ia not far from live dollars per aero ; iu those where there arc twenty, the value is not far from ten ; ia those where thcro are fifty, the va?uo ?a not far from twenty-five ; in those where there are one hundred, as in Massachusetts, the average is not far from fifty ; in England, where thero are throe hundred and thirty-three to tho square mile, the average, per acre, is not far from one hundred and sixty; iu towns, where there aro ono thousand on a square mile, tho average, per acre, is not far from flvo hundred dollars ; and in cities, whore there are fifty thousand to the mile, the value, per acre, is about twoiity-rive thousand dol lars. This would indicate that every individual who comes to reside upon any o.-.o square mile of this earth's surface will add proportionately to ?Is worth, aud that this addition, in tho present rela tions of money, will not bo far from three hundred dollars. With equal certainty can it bo shown that he adds t'.i the value of other property. ' The census returns of 1850, the only one to which we have ac cess, v.ili show the principie to be applicable to th?H country at least. Massachusetts, with a population of about one million, had an aggregate of about 5500,000,000 worth of property. MiefaV gan, with a population of about four hundred thousand, had an aggregate of about $200,000,000. Connecticut, with a population of about three hun dred and seventy thousand, had an aggregate of about :?1H5,000. Nor was this ratio coidined to tho free States. South Carolina, with a popula tion of about seven hundred thousand, had an ag gregate of $350,000,000; and Oeorgia.with a popula tion of about nine hundred thousand, had ah ag gregate of about $450,000,000. These statements do not correspond with any of the tables act forth in that census, but they result in principle from a r.omnatisoil of Mm ?litTerer.' ? M?"? *?- ?- ?/??.avut cd, and arc sufficient to establish tho permanent fact lb.it population is wealth,?that every man, whether bond or free, is worth five hundred dol lars to the state; and they afford us ground for tho bolief that wo cannot part with ft portion of " onr present population without the loss of a cor . responding .port ion of our present property; and that all aro interested to tho precise extent of ?iis interests hero, if from no better reason, to cher ish and sustain tho colored race. We know that to this it will Lu oxceptad, that what may be truo with respect to an active white population will not bo true with respect to a population not active and not white; and wo know also it will bo urged in proof of this that here, at least, the principle is not sustained, and that with atill a population of flevon hundred thousand, or near it, we havo not $350,000,000 worth of property. Upon these points wo will spoak at another time, and will show that thoro are misconceptions as to tho property of this State, and that vdiother equal to tho white man or not, we yet can spare tho nogro only with ir reparable detriment to our vested interests. Wo clip tho following from a Macon paper of a recent date.: . ,.. -l ' The Ocmc-uiee.?Thin stream is at present low ? - or than it lias been for sonic time. Wo have heard of several boa's at dlftoront poiiits awaiting a siif ficioncy of wator to "carry thoin down the river, for tho Ha vannait market. ,. Tho anxious seat at the Custom Houao is nol yaoaut. What Europe Is Doing. 1 In a roeont number of Northern exchange ap pears nn article on tin? present political condition ^ jf Europe, which, as giving sonic Insight into the situation there, and being in itself botll iiiHtruc- t the and interesting, wo subjoin : < The European Journals nn? filled with rumors of < the revival of the Emperor Napou-on's project ?>f a j continental congress to readjust the political re- , luttons of tho OKI World, and definitely rooon- j ?truct tho "Map of Europe." Ho far, no confirmation of those rumors comes to US from Taris; an? it i? in ami of Itself most im probable that the Emperor of the French will renew a proposition which he sees it to bo likely ( will soon he pressed upon UiinsoU by the very pow er? which formerly declined it. It would ho the most brilliant, if not the ino.it solid, diplomatic ' triumph of hi* reign to compel Europe into ! acknowledging the hopelessness of any other issus ? out of her existing complication? than that which he originally suggested, and France, in any con ?press which" the Emperor might now consent to inn. would find herself more than ever the mis tress and arbitr?os of the European position. Hut if Napoleon gives no sign at present, the situation of affairs on the continent abundantly nceounts for the sii/ns which are made in hin nanio by all manner of publicists, from London to Vienna. In the expressive phrase of French tiiphnnacy, that situation is intensely "stretched. Thing? cannot possibly go on long without an ex plosion in one or another quarter, which must hake the whole political fabric, unless the great powers act themselves seriously to work to solve existing problems, and to provide against near and impending perils. The invasion made by Germany upon the rightt? of Donniurk and the public law ?f the world, has resulted in driving the two great German powers into an antagonism more open and threatening than ut nnv i?i-<-vi?nis mutilent since 1848. Prus sia, miner the control of her obstinately visionary long and his reactionary ministry, insists upon ap propriating the territory wrenched (rum the Scan dinavian monarchy. To this Austria refuses to assent, declining to ace Prussia elevated to the rank of a great naval power by the possession of Kiel, and put in the way of "rounding'' her dominions, eventually, by tho incorporation of all North Germany from th? Russian frontiers to the Rhine. It is true that the peace seems to he com manded between these angry Stales?nn the aide of Prussia by the profound unpopularity of her exist ing government, and on thy side of Austria by her tlnuncinl insolvency mid the Italian ulcer on her | 1lnnk. But each power baa a large army in the. | Held, and the possible unreasonableness of royal and imperial pursouages Is a force for mischief which can never be mathematically estimated. A recent senii-uflichil Austrian journal hints that Austria might be induced to accede to the annex ation of the Danish Duchies by Prussia, if Aus tria, in return, were permitted to "rectify her frontiers in Silesia" by taking back a port of the territory which sho l?st in that province to the great Frederick, and to extend herself comfort ably toward the Black Sea by incorporating the Daiiuhitiu Principalities with her dominions. What could l>0 more fair than an exchange of duchies on the Baltic for principalities ou the Dauuhol Un luckily for tins otherwise admirable project, tho people of the principalities and the other great powers of Europe arc not likely to consent Mint so important a transaction shall lie carried out with . an exclusive eye to the pacification of Germany, | and the mutual advantages of the two heads of the Teutonic eagle. Still something must be done to put this matter at rest. Stcauwhilu those very principalities are weary ing of their connection with the Turkish Empire: i and a Pan-Selavie hero has recently arisen, srouud whose name the discontented racen of Eastern I Europe are concentrating a formidable ?how of I ! enthusiasm. Driven from Montenegro by the Ot- | toman forces, this I'an-Sclavic hero is just now i ! Buffering himself to bo worshipped under the pro ! tcction of Russia, in Odessa, where lie awaits any I favorable opportunity uf making mischief on an! extensiv?.? scale. Tlie Italians, though nearer their national unity than the Bclavos or the Germans, are yet very far from being satisfied with the actual aspect either of llio ltoman or tho Venetian question. They are pressing forward eagerly and nobly in the career of industry and material development opened to them by tire events of 1SC0, and they are naturally impatient of the expenses and inconveniences to which they are subjected by the attitude of the Pope toward themselves and the French Emperor, and by the policy of Austria. Grave as an- the problema which the civil war lias imposed upon ourselves for solution, and se riously aa the necessity for solving them must confine ua for some time to como to a foreign poli cy rather of observation thiin of n.-scrtion, it is quite as plain thut tho European powers are in volved in difficulties and straits at least as absorb ing ua our own. The ill temper of a German min ister, or tho death of a moribund old man, may at any moment compel the Old World to choose pe remptorily between Napoleon's European con j gross anil a chaotic, convulsive, and convulsing l general war, whereof no rational man dare predict the issues. ... Mail Facilities in Geoiuiia.?The Macon Tele graph saya the Fostinaater-Generiil has informed Governor Jo-DffiOR "that with a view to furnishing mail facilities, at the earliest practicable moment, to pcr_on_*rc_iding at or near county seats in the .State of Georgia, ho haa the honor to inform him that tho Department, on the receipt of reasonable bids for th? transportation, will be prepared to issue orders authorizing temporary mail service (tilT?31st Deeefnber) on routes miming from auch BOlinty^uats^n the nearest point on railroads on which imftfy rtjre conveyed.*1 Letting of contracts on all thu .vo?tes in tho ?tate will bo advertised for fr*nr 1st January, 18C5. i ir.-? ? Tin: Georgia State IUtmioao_The Augusta Conslitulionhlist, of the Cth, has the following in teresting information concerning this road : Wo learn that the military authorities of the United Statea have proposed to turn over to the provisional government of the State the Stute railroad, with ita appendages. The conditions upon which the transtor i? to bo made aro liberal and satisfactory, and Governor Johnson is no-, en route to complet? tho arrangement aa speedily as possible. This is tho moat important public im provement in which tho State ha? an interest'di rect, and that it can bo operated to result more b'o?oficiairy t? tho State, and the inter?s.? of the ptibUc generally, under civil management than when controlled by military managers, thoro is not a doubt. Heretoforo this road has yiolded to tho Stato an ?m?nense revenue annually* and will do bo ogain; but for .some timo heneo this cannot ho expected. The rolling stock of the road ia in liad order; some of tho bridges aro temporary structures, and all the depots, car and wood sheds were destroyed by the contending armies.

' l?x-Onvnnvon Piokbns.^-Ai Charleston letter writer thus leparte tho views and policy of tlua gentleman: Hinco tho, expiration of his official term, Gov ernor Pickcns bus beon quietly residing on his fine plantation in Edgofleld District taking no part other than a deep interest, in tho great events of tho war. Being one of tho largest and most suc cessful cotton planters in tho State, of course the einanoipatioii of the slaves lias seriously affected his wealth.

Ile is, howevor.-not over sanguine as to tho result of tho experiment, adhormg to tho opinion that the plantation nogro caunot ho mado to work under any other than a compulsory svstcm. Many sup posed that Governor Pickons would have been amone? tho first arrested after the war; but, in bis regard, as well as towards his successor, Governor Boiiham, tho authorities seem to havo adopted a lenient policy. ; %l will he ?ratifying, '.??ye the Montgomery Ad vertiser, to the travelling publie to learn that the break in tho If. <fc W.
