To he sure, the proposition would '' e a cunfoundedly impudent one, but I aiu * lad to see it inuUe, and was in hopes the " lOuiliern press would have tnet it as tho * rst step in the right direction on tho part f llio "peculiar friends of tho blacks." liy 11 lie right direction 1 mean in a practical 0 'irection.

This new proposition is one to 8 onsidcr tho case in its practical bearings. 1 I coiues from a large number of persons, * nany of whom aro of llie highest icspecta'il'ty for intelligence, wealth, and personal j onsideration in their private vocations, l' rliiclt certify the sincerity of their move 1 uent; and it sttike* me forcibly that it e vould have been sound policy to have met c hem with approval, and said, "Coon, gen ^ lemen; meet together, with your slates in 1 innd, and cypher out sundry problems J. vhicb wo of tho South (who have some in erest in this matter) will give you," and vhicb problems 1 will lurnish in the Ian 1 [tinge of a correspondent of mine in Mary- . and, as being much belter than my own, 1 is follows: 1 First.

What id ilie value of the cotton aid sugar estates which will be ruined by c he operation! For wo shall insist upon " elling you the plantations with the labor 1 hat makes them valuable. Third. What will you do with tho ne- 1 ;roes after you have bought them? Will 1 'ou leave them to (heir fate, ami, if they lie out as the Indian has done, or sink iuto * i besotted idleness as the negro has dune 8 n tho British West Indies, put them upon heir own responsibility? Or, will you assume 1 >ur office as their guide and protector, and ' hen maintain a modified slavery, calling it ?y a gentler name! ! Fourth. What is the value of the cotton nilU, and the labor, and the mercantile ( iperations dependent upon them, which * vould bo I'ltluiless for want of the raw niaerial to spin? 1 Fifth. What would be tho effect of the . liinini-died production of cotton upon our lecuniary and political relations with Fug- ' and, and Furope generally? Sixth. Wheio is all tho money to come 1 roni to pay for the oporution? And, if c iv rnpletcd, would it not beggar the North? c The fourth and fifth problems are e-peci- M illy interesting at this lime, when the Iritish and Ftench Governments are look- ' ng about for lubor (in some form, even if J I bo a partial revival of the slava trade unlor another name) to grow sugar, and 1 rhen one of the most interesting subjects in 1 Janchester and Loioelt i6 the mode of pro- 8 uring an incteascd supply of cotton.
