Leaving the Old House.
There's sunshine on thc meadows,
And sunshine on tho road,
And through the brightness toils my horse
Beneath a weary load ;
And as I stand beside my gate, with hand before
my eyes,
I hear the children laugh to see the household
gods I prize.
There was a time when this old home
Was full of mirth and glee,
But one by one the household went,
And left it all to me ;
A quiet house of vacant rooms, each made a sa
cred placo
By echo of a missing voice, or dream of vanished
faeo.
Ah, how I use? to pause before
Tbe mirror on the stair
And shake my long bright ringlets out,
And fancy I was fair 1
I took that quaint old mirror down, and packed
it up last night,
And never stopped to trick my hair-for what is
left is white !
In later j -irs I used to sit
And watch the long green lane,
For one whv came in those old times,
But cannot come again.
And somehow, still at eventide my chair is turned
that way ;
I sit and work --here once I watched-I sat so
yeoicrday.
My new house is a pleasant piuco ;
But yet it grieves me how
Its small completeness seems to say
My world is narrow now.
'Tis far too small for any one with festivals to
keep,
But for my funeral, large enough, for few will
come to weep.
Good-by, old house, and long good-by ;
My hand is on your gate ;
Though tears are gathering in my eyes,
I may not longer wait.
Good-by, old house, and after all, tho love which
m ikes you dear,
Awaits me in the heavenly home which I am
drawing near.

EL PASO DEL IXFIERXO.
BY DR. 8. COMPTON" SM?TH.
Ou tic toad from Monterey to Pesqueira
Grande, and about four leagues from thc for
mer place, is the noted Paso dd Infierno, or
Pass of the Evil One. it is the northern ter
mination of a valley, enclosed by ridges of
the Sierra Madre, which ut thia point, appear
to Lave been split asunder by some natural
convulsion, expressly for the passage of thia
road.
From th.* cobaltic veins of the mountain,
cropping out into the valley, Hows a little
transparent, poisonous stream, which, after
leaping, play fully from rock to .ro.ck, rea'?hes
the path, which it cresses, and recrossed,
mocking the thirst o? the traveler, and tempt
ing Lim to drink of its deadly waters.
To deter him, however, and as a caution
not lo permit his road heated animal* to im
bibe from this poisonous fountain, there is
rudely pictured upon either side of tho cliffs,
u gigantic representation of a death's head
ind cross-bones; such as the careful apothe
cary pastes upon the bottles aod packages
contaiuing his deadliest drugs.
At the time I pawed the spot, the loose
rocks were thickly planted with wooden
crosses, those Sranish emblems of murder,
telling the traveler that the pass wa? the fre
quent scene of assassination and robbery ;
that crime and violence here lay in wait for
their victims.
Near the poisonous streamlet, and almost
in the path, was one of these orossex, already
embrowntd by exposure, upon oue of the
arm3 of which, was nuiled by the wrist, a
man's right hand. This toatlnomc object,
the skin and tendons of which stiil cluug to
the bones, was so contrived as to grasp a
naked dagger, with its blade rusted with the
blood of some hapless victim of assassination.
Concerning this fearful spectacle, Jose Maria,
the faithful and intelligent guide, who usually
accompanied me in my wanderings, told the
following tale:
"Don Vecinto Ziminez, who lives in the
hacienda we passed just before wo entered
the Talley, is a rich man, or rather was ; but
the greatest treasure he possessed, wa? his
beautiful .daughter, la Senorita Aua. She
was the pride of his heart, and many were
?be youths-30u6 of the better class of haci
endades* who had knelt to her loveliness, and
aspired to 1er baud. Among these was Ped
ro Canales, a nephew of ?eperal Canales ;
he who six"months ago was tho leader pf the
gu?rilleros of New Leon. Aud Don Veciute;
you remember was formerly governor of Mon
terey. But the favored suitor of the fair Ana,
was Jacinto Sanchez, whose father was the
nearest neighbor of Don Vecin'e, and whose
hacienda commences haifa league from where
we now ure, and occupies thc valley we are
about to eider, Jacinto and Ana had grown
up from childhood fonpiher, being in almost
daily intercourse, and instructed by the same
tutors ; HO that they had come io regard each
other with the affection of brother and sister.
But when, alteran absence of four year* in
Madrid, whither he bud been to comp etc his
studies-the young man returned to his na
tive valley, and discovered thc developed
beauties of his former playmate, his boyish
attachment suddenly assumed the character
ot a stronger and more passionate love. Ana,
also, was struck with the favoruble change,
which a residence among the polished Madri
anos had wrought in the handsome youth.
" Don Veciute welcomed the return of the
young maD warmly ; ami it jrns sting rumored
that he was the accepted lover Q?tjj.e (air Aue
Ziminez.
" All the Senorita's former admirers con
gratulated them upon their approaching mar
j riage, save Pedro C?nale?, who regarding the
i happy Jacinto a's a rival in the att'ectiotis ol
? o/ae, he was vaiu enough to suppose and
looked upai; /jim with preference-declared
that the wedding fclio.'jld never be consum
mated ; and with u dogged manner,- shunned
a meeting with hisJormer friend.
"At length the lime arrived, when Fathei
Eusebio, the former instructor of A".a, and
th/) venerable chaplain of the hac:cnd i, wat
notiiied tu be in readiness to celebrate tb?
nuptials of tin: young people.
.. Great preparations wece made to sigual
ize tho event with hilarity, A fiusta yr tu de
cided upon, to which all the friends of thi
parties were invited, as well us all those will
whom they were acquainted, together witl
the peons and dependents of tbe two estate!
of Zimiiuzand Sanchez.
" Among the friends, the discarded Peda
Canales was not forgotten, and, as if regret
ting his long continued discourtesy, the gucr
rilla captain intimated his acceptance of th<
invitation; and all promised a happy celebra
tion of tho wedding festivities.
"Even before the sun bad sunk behind tin
Sierra, the rancho Ziminez began to fill will
j the assembling guests, and .by the time th<
. moon flooded the eadley with her early boam?
the little plaza had become crowded- witl
dancers; springing gaily to the Itvcly'oot?j o
{guitars and castanets.

and prolonged slumber, she opened her

" The woman, overjoyed to hear once 1
the voice of her mistress, informed her
ber father had not for an hour left her
till that morning, when, bis presence bad
required at the rancho of h's neigl
whither he had gone.
" 1 Au, yes ! I remember it all !' oxclui
I the iuvalid, with a bitter sigh. ' But, Ju
tell mc where is that fatal weapon that di

4"Il was, se?ora,' answered the wor
{ and is in the p. esessiou of padre Eusebi(

" The woman hesit?.*ed.
"* Nay, nay, Juana,--rust me. I shal

" The girl spoke with a determined t
which satisfied the woman of her sound m
and leaving the room, soon returned with

dimmed by the blood of the murdered yo
still adhering to it.
" The girl received it with a shudder;
after examining its silver handle 1er a
ment, casi it to tho floor, exclaiming:
'.'Yes, I knew it !-'tis //is."
"From tliut lime Ana Z minez rapidlj'
covered her physical hcaitb. But tue me
ry of that awful uigul of the Wedding fie
preyed continually upon her "mind. ]
withal, she seemed stayed by some inw
strength, some steady purpose, which, 0
resolved upon, imparted to her character
almost masculine qualify.
" Scarcely had three months passed a
the murder of her lover, than, laying at
the garb of mourning she bad assumed,
onc< more received the attentions of her ;
mer admirers. But to none did she e.\ti
so much apparent cordiality as to ber
suitor, Pedro Canales. He was her aim
constant attendant ; and scarcely did a i
pass, that the enntnore'd guerilla was
either riding or walking by her side.
" One evening Ana proposed a ride to
gloomy Pass. She had been during that <
unusually cheerful and her sallies of mi
and wit bad emboldened thc young officer

he pressed his suit, promised to give him

" ' But that is a strange, wild spot tom:

spread over his face.
'','Ikuow il!' replied the girl, laughi
loudly. 'It has heretofore witnessed-0
scenes of blood and crime. But I have

The Last War Council of President
'Davis.
In the Southern Home Journal, Mr. E. A.
.Pollard describes the last council of war held
by Hon. Jefferson Davis. This conference
was held in South Carolina, while Mr. Davis
was in retreat, and only a few days after tho
issue of his proclamation of April 5, in which
he urged thc South to an unending conflict.
This proclamation was issued before the sur
render of Lee's army, ""an event," says Mr.
Pollard, " which appeared to determine the
last hopes of the Southern people, to-convincc
them that further prosecution of the war was
useless, and even criminal in a fruitless con
sumption of human life."
Mr. Pollard adds :
Not so wrh Mr. Davis. He was remarka
ble for a sanguine temperament ; he had that
disposition at once imperious and weak, whieb,
de sanding that all things must be as it wishes,
believes them so ; and wbal the world thought
the swollen boas'- of a desperate and falling
leader were really the sincere illusions of a
proud maa who never, indeed, fully realized
the extremity of his cause until " the iron en
tered his soul'' in the c^ernatcs of Fortress
Monroe. In his slrangely deliberate and
leisurely retreat through.tho Carolina?, he had
not appeared lor a moment to realize that he
was a fugitive, and ho looked with compla
cency upon the disordered fragmenta of the
army that had gathered on the line of his
flight, and that pursued it with a vague and
uncertain design. .
An officer who was > instantly in his com
puiy, in what might oe though* days of an
guish and despair to thc fallen chief, if stifles:
"Mr. Davis was apparently untouched by
any of the demoralization which prevailed
he was affable, dignifi-.d and looked the very
personification of high and undaunted cour
age.*' Ile vet persisted that the cause was
not lost, although Loe had surrendered, al
though Johnson ead furled bis banners wit''*
out a battle, and although all that w;.s visible
of the great annies that had stood from llich
ui?tid lo Augusta, on the dominant lir.es of
war, were less than one tLousasd soldiers,
fragments of brigades that assembled around
bim at Abbeville, South Caroliua, when ho
paused there lor a final council with his
Generals.
In the little town tf Abbeville Mr. Davis
summoned his officers to council ; he was de
termined to try their resolution, and anxious
to ascertain the spirit of their men. The outy
full Generala who yet attended him were
Bragg, his " military adviser," and Breokio
ridge, lately Secretary of War. There were
five brigade commanders present at the con
ference. To this small but important audi
ence Mr. Davis addressed himself with all
the powers of his wonderful aud subtle intelj
lout. Thc old. imperious look Was yet in his'
worn face; the eye, transfixed with neuralgic
pain, with its deep recess of li^'ht, sLouo
steady and dt fiant ; the thin visage was illu
minated bj' the active mind and shone with
animated discourse. Ile spoke in the even,
silvery tones of his accustomed eloquence.
Ile declared that the country waa only suf
fering '.rom violent surprises and an exagge
rated alarm ; its .resolution would soon be
erect agaiu ; the present condition Wa? that
of panic, and patriotism would poon be
aroused when it heard the commanding and
re-.sauring tones of authority. II'insisted
thal the war was not Impele*4 I he armies
Could be reassembled, and mere would bo
new calls for enlistments and new incentives
tu thc country's service. He said that even
the few hundred men he yet counted around
him were enough to prolong the war until the
panic had passtrd away, and they would then
be a nucleus for thousands more. He urged
his (.ifiicers to accept his views, and animate
their ?nen to stand to the good cause, whose
honor they had so long maintained, and wh^so
last hopes they now carried on their bayonets.
His auditors were silent. At length, they
spoke, one by one, each brigade commander
statin;; the condition am' temper of bis men,
and declaring his view of the situation, lt
was a plain unanimous judgment; the war
could not succeed and.should not bo prolonged;
they could not ask their men to struggle
against a fate which was inevitable, and for
feit, all hopes of restoration to their homes
and friends, but they would insist that ihe-ir
honor was involved in securing ltic escape ol'
Mr. Davis, and for the accomplish mei. t ol
th's object they would risk battle, and put off
subm'ssiott to thc Hst moment.
" No, no !" exclaimed the unhappy chief, in
passionate accents. u I will heir of no plan
which has for its object only ray safety."
j Then speaking slowly and bitterly, with a
j deep and fearful chango settling on bis coon
I ?e ance, he said ! M AH hope is gone | Alas,
I that I should see'the d?y when aji thp friends
j of the South are prepared tu consent lo her
i degradation." He fullered and sat down in
silence ; every one in the room rcspecied him
too much to reply.
Presently, without even a gesture of cour
teous retirement, without any acknowledg
ment of the company whatever, he rose to
ie ive the room ; and it was observed that he
bad lost his erect ourringo and defiant port
A weight of years appeared to bare sudden
ly fallen on the stricken sufferer. Thc eyes
were uneasy in ?he pale, pinched ?ice; and
BO uncertain and tottering was bis step that
General Breckenridge moved to his side, and
I giving him his arm, supported him from the
I room. Not a single word was spoken.

left the witness stand, and proceeded to the
vestibule of the Court Ehmse, where he heard
expressions of belief on all sides that he had
peijured himself, and other remarks not very
complimentary to Iiis character. Soon after
ward ho expressed a desire to make a full and
free retraction of al! he had said in regard to
? younjr lady upon the Witness stand. The
news of iiaight's confession was received with
perfect astonishment by the counsel for Hoyt,
who at once determined to withdraw from the
case and leave the prisoner to his fate. .
They visited him in jail and informed him
of the sudden turn affairs had taken, and of
. their inability to do anything m ire iii his
case. The young man was somewhat dumb
founded at first, but soon regained sufficient
composure to propose an offer ot marriage.
Tho counsel encouraged the suggestion as the
only means of escape left to bim from the
State prison, and when the Court reasscm
bl-?d in the afternoon-after Haight had pub
bely withdrawn his evidence-made the offer
bj die District Attorney and Mi. Beach. They
were nor entirely pleased with the proposi
lion, but submitted it tn thc young lady. She
consulted willi her friends-they opposed the
marriage; two -isiers, very estimable and
worthy ladies, who had uobly stood by the
unfortunate girl through ali the solemn hours
of tue Irin!, beseeched her with tears not to
mat ry tLe prisoner nuder circumstances such
aa had been developed on ike trial, but the
poor, wronged] and irjured girl-with a moth
er's tender love for her misery, and a heart
not yet dead to the unworthy csttbC of all her
misery-?ave such reason lor the step that
silenced counsel, friends, relatives, and all in
their opp 'sirion to the union, arid con-ented
io tho marriage.
. Meanwhile, while these whisperings and
negotiations, conducted wat h son? and tears
wcie going on, the vust audience in the Court
room remained silent and interested specta
tors o! tiic scene. Scarcely a person in the
crowd d assembly al first approved the union
mit when ;.t was ?it hst known that the young
mri liad consented to rescue the object of her
heart's youthful affections lr;un a prison, all
suddenly reversed their judgment-1< ve won
the victory ever reason-and hearty appin rn
greeted tOe appearance ut Rev. Dr. Baldwin

few words pissed bel ween them j the Rever

! Jii.i^e R .bv.rlsoti, and the young couple pre
isenujfc? themselves tit the altar. The ?udge
was th" first to break the stillness of the
solemn .-:et:iie. Ile remarked thal the conclu'
sion of the trial'could not but be regarded n
fol lunate for all parties concerned. It would
seem from the evidence in the oise, that th.
deieudant had been misled by the falsehood
of Certain parties, and had mistrusted the in
tt-grity ano lidelity of the young lady. A
witness had b?eu producid herc lending lo
Caifjrm Mich an impression, but ne has come
into court and made a full and free rel rael iou
of hi? evidence in recant to the virtue and
character of ihp complainant j and the defen

misled, and desire&'to makeall the reparation
in his power by a public performance of the
ceremony of marriage, lt is witbiu the prov
ince of the law to suspend thc proceedings ol
the ?rial by marriage of the parties, and they
are now so suspended. Kev. Dr. Baldwin
then married the parties. The scene was
most impressive. During the whole of the
solemn service thc utmost quiet re-gued ; all
hearts seemed deeply touched by the spec'a
eic, and tears Coursed down manya quivering
cheek. Tuen the prison gates were opened

The Late Wm. Gregg.
A correspondent of thc Evangelical Luthe
ran, says :
There was a deep hush all over thc hills,
and A greater than Sabbath silence reigned
over the village of Grahbeville, S. C., rm tho
morning nf Friday, the 13th September, 1867.
Every placo seemed to be pervaded by a
sense of a lo3S which never could be made
up again, and when at 9 o'clock, the village
bell was tolled, we knew that on that morn
ing so brilliantly beautiful, Wm. Gregg, the
Founder, and eminently the Father of the
community, was about to be conveyed to the
bouse appointed for all tho living.
When, tn the most private walks of life,
fie husband and ihe father is removed from a
sorrowing household, who can withhold their
sympathy from the widow and the fatherless ?
But,, when a Giant falls, one who, to all the
endearing charities of private life, has added
that of Public Benefactor, well may that
community which . had been favored by bi
presence, animated by bis counsel and ex
ample, and cheered by the smile, which al
ways awaited the deserving-well may the
whole neighborhood unite, as they did on that
day, to testify before the living, their high
appreciation of the dead.
Like the sweet perfume of some precious
flower, the odor of a good name breathes
around, while it scatters its aroma, others
mayhap arc led to try and shed such fra
granee too. And yet, above all else, when to
the other virtues which adorn, is added the
crowning one, that tho name of Bedeemer was
honored, and the dying testimony given that
the grave, that grave of death, can be irradiat
ed by the grace of Him who brought life and
immortality to light by the Gospel-I say
above all should we. even whilst mourning
over so great a loss, feel and say, He has not
lived in vain.
The village of Graniteville-his own crea
tion, so to speak-was bu his heart even to
the last, lie had been Father, Brother,
Friend, to all the deserving, and sent to
them from his dying bed, a message full
of good wishes for their present aud eternal
happiness.
And now-that busy life is ended ! Death
found him at his post and he rose up even
cheerfully to meet our common foe, and in
the strength of Him who died for us and rose
ajain, he laid down everything, and went to
meet his God. Much can and no doubt will
bc said of the career of such a mau, but it
will he written by abler pens than mine. I
only desire, in pausing al his grave, to lay one
little flower there, thu .simple offering of one
who respected him living, and who honors
him dead. But such men never die. Their
influence for good remains, and down the long
vista of the silent past men will point back
ward to his natue, as one who proved by his
whole life what ;irttious efforts can effect.
Let us not only admire, but emulate.

A Million Lives and 83,000,000,000.
The Sentinc'-on the Border says : Six years
ago the Black Republican party steeped the
nation in a monstrous civil war, ostensibly io
save *' the Uciou," then imperilled by the se
cession of eleven States in the South. The
battle was fought-a bloody one-and tho
victory won ! And where is the Union for
which a million lives Wcro sacrificed and
Sll.OO?.?UO.U.OU, expended ? Who i's respon
sible for it that the Union of the States bas
not been secured, and thc work of re.-toration
compleled? Who but the party claiming
for a while to bj "the Union party!"' but
who, having accomplished its mWsrn of disu
nion, has dropped that title ! Who but thc
Black Republican-..Miscegenation leadersfrom
Thad. Slevous and Thief Butler down to Ja
cobin township supervisors/are responsible
for the continued disruption of the Union of
the States ? Had not the people of the South
ern Slat- s sign.lied their unanimous willing
ness 'o acquiesce iu the results cf the war,
and d'd they not apply tor aoiatasion to their
Constitutional rights?.. Who denied them
their Rights, but the GO called "U-n-i o-n
party," wflo havcoverlurned the governments
oi'Slates sovcri-igh'y in all rights not delegat
ed to Congress in the formation of t he Union ;
who have stripped the people of Statehood,
remanding ihem to a terriioral condition,
never heldbv them at any time: who haya
taxed their property, but re used I hem. rep'
j reSttiiiation, and who have handed oyer the
control of Caucasian destiny to the tender
mercy of freed African plantation hands in
the South ?
j No wonder that tte 'Union" party hq*
dropped, its ljir.^' title. It never was a ynion
; party, but always a Disunion one. Tho
watchwords of its trusted leaders have been
for thirty years: "Let the Union slider"
i ,l The Constitution-?a covenant with death
j and a leaguo with bell 1" Theae intemperate
I and dam ably traitorous expressions of. the
: leaders of the so called " Union party," have
! ever been applauded by a great body of the
! rank and file of the Miscegenation Black Re
' publican party. -Its professions of Unionism
. were vile d?cuplions to humbug - the -people

1 Tfhat promise has it fulfilled ? Where, in

Cotton.
The recent rory great decline in cotton wa?
unexpected as it is moat clearly without jost
cau?e or reason. We had anticipated a slight
check-perhaps a slight falling off in price
when the glowing accounts of the crop pros
pects which were 60 industriously circulated
here in Aueust, reached Liverpool and Man
chester. Wo were well convinced at that
time that our planting friends were overes
timating the product of the crop, and giving
too much prominence to the, at best, but fair
prospects which the month of August seoraed
to indicate. These accounts, highly colored
aa they were, .have been very greatly exag
gyrated in the interest of spinners and spec
ulators, and, combined with other causes,
have produced such a decline in prices as to
leave the price to-day barely remunerative to
the planter. Indeed, we do not-believe that,
under the present system, tho ruling rates of
cotton to day are more than sufficient to pay
the cost of production. The expense in the
way of taxes, freights, commissions, insu
rance, storage, icc, will amount to at least
four or five cents per pound. This taken
from the present price, say 19 cents for Mid
dlings, would leave but 14 or 15 cents net
per lb. In gold be but about the old price
received before- the war-say ten cents per
pound.
The present crop has been raised at a rate
of expense-much highef than any ever here
tofore made. Provisions have been from six
ty to one hundred per cent, higher than for
merly. Large sums have been expended for
.Guanos and other fertilizers, while the cost
of labor has been very great, amounting in
some instances co one-half of the crop. Ten
cents in gold will not moro than pay the cost
of production unloss a very largo crop is re
alized. We have ceased to hope for even a
moderately fair crop. The continued rains
of August and September, have caused the
hte fruit to shed, and thousands of acres have
been destroyed by rust, boll-worm, rot, and
tho caterpillar. We doubt very seriously
whether the crop will be much larger if any
than that of 18G6.
Under the present circumstances, there
seems to us to be.but one course for the plan
ters to purine to force the price up to a re
munerating figure. They should- hold their
cotton, until at least the later and more cor
rect estimates of the growing crop can reach
the European markets and produce thu prop
er effect there. By holding the crop now
they will give additional force to the gloomy
accounts which have gone forward within the
last two or three weeks. The price cannot go
lower unless the planters choose to co-operate
with spinners and speculators by rushing their
crops rapidly into thc markets.
We earnestly implore oar planting friends
to ?end no mure cotton to market now than
will pny fur the advancements which their
fiKilot'H and mercbantshave mad?them. The-e
advancements should be paid promptly for
two reasons: First, because tho planter's
Honor and gi iud laith id involved and pledged
tn such early pa? raent. Second-, because if
they are not promptly paid it viii be difficult,
if not quite impossible, to obtain such nd
vtrrOt-s m future if they should be_rtquired^.
Honesty, honor and interest alike require that
it sufficient amount of the prt.-.ont crop should
be sent forward to pay off to thc utmost farth
ing all advances which have been made fur
its production.
Having acquitted themselves of these oil i - i
g?tions, duty and intereet require that the
balance of the crop should be withheld from
the market until a reaction takes place in thc.
price. This, if the planters will it, will take
place by or before the first of November-in
ample time for them to sell at least a quanti
tv sufficient to pay eff their laborers before
lit? end of the year.
We again urge our planting friends to de
mand in ever}' ins:ance gold for their crops. -
L?t each pla ter make it a rule to carry
home, after selling their cotton, nothing but
coin. This will not depreciate. There in nu
discouiit on gold.' Texas planters have never
yet ?old u bale of cotton fur M currency."
Gold is the only currency there. We should [
learn 'roui their example. No fluctuations
of the market-no European complications- j
no Wail-street panics-no robbery of the
Treasury vaults can lessen the value of gold.
lt is good HOW, will be good next month, and
will be belter still next ?wr.
In conclusion, then, wa repeat-pay, up by
sale of a sufficient quantity of your crop, the ?
advances which you have received-devote ?
your whole time and energies in picking out
and neatly cleaning and preparing for mar
ket the crop now in the fields-hold on lo .
your crops until an advance in price takes
place, and when you sell ptyt y?td in }'o'u:
pockets.-ChrQuiwle & Sentinel.
Astonishing Absurdity.
Ic is really wonderful how l\\o brazen and
persistent repetition of an absurdity will final
ly affect the to.uvjn and lead men even to
stultify their senses, as wei as their common
son-c. The lunatic Abolitionist has asserted
for yeari that emigrants would not go South
beeau.se they had slavery," but if this
"slavery" were abolished, ?hen the whole
South would be fairly overrun Ly northern
and European mechanics and laborers, Peek
ing new homes in that section. Aud utrauge,
indeed, many southern men, from the sheer
repetition of this gross and preposterous non
sense, actually express surprise that the
South does not fill'up with emigrants, now
that Abolition has prepared the way. We
actually find. \l difficult to conceive o?' a stu
pidity so gross, ar a mental imbecility so ab
ject, as a belief in thia Abolition assertion
but it exists. A white laboring mechanic,
&c, would Dot settle in tho South, because
the negro was below him ; but abolish this
condition of the negro, and degrade the emi
grant to an equality with him, why, then,
forsooth, he. would fly at once to oi joy "j-.a
partial freedom'' with Sambo. Why, thc
stupid au?3 immeasurable fools!-of all things
on the face of thc earth, tho northern me
chanic and laboring man abhors a " free' nig
ger. Tho very fact that for the time being
tao negro is "free" at thc South, settles the
matter beyond doubt that emigration for the
present is settled in that section.
If they could get rid of tho " free1' negro,
no doubt multitudes of northern mechanics,
farmers, &c, would prefer thc genial clime of
Virginia aiid the Carolinas ; but with this
" fr?.e" negro, this revolting and monstrous
SJcinl monstrosity cumbering (he ground, it
