tile to slavery. Cotton will grow, whether under culture of the white or black; and what is far is far better; the cotton grown by the white culturist will b? manufactured bv the white operator at his Southern factories. What a spectacle to hope for! What a beautiful destiry for the opening of the twentieth century! me -sixteen Hundred millions dollars worth" of slaves would not, with this prospect before them, be worth sixteen hundred million pennies. The alternative with the South is to reopen the agitation of the past year. A second feature in tnis calculation, presents itself in the dangerous increase of the slave over the white, as shown by tbo cenetis of 1790 and and 1840. This increase, throughout j me oouin, average 37 per cent, to 28 of the white; and at this rate the slave doubles more than five times while the former is doubling four. The increase is not uniform, for in somo States, uh in Maryland and Virginia, progression is greater, but the white population also multiplies at a greater ratio. The slaves of Virginia already exceed the white population: out of a population of ouu,uuu lor aouui Carolina, ;JSU,UUU are slaves; and in Alabama and Geor gia the same state of things prevails. Now, let it be Oi/3ci'V?i!, tlifti iiCi'ic i but the ultra Southern States are thus threatened with ultimate negro insurrection, and none but large slave owners and interested merchants cry out for Federal dissolution. They dread the future; and in the liberal sentiments continually finding their I? t|._ fc> lU .1 1- TO way iu me uuunit uirmi^n -L^Ol'lllCm prints, &,c., they think they see rebellion among ihcir servants. Ii" n confederacy could be iormed out of the Southern States, such laws would he passed as utterly to exclude the doctrines of abolitionism, frccsoilism, and perhaps of human liberty itself. Again, the ultra-South, having worn out their 68,000,000 of acres of possessory domain, and antirinatinir thn # ? 1? o natural increase of the slave, yearn for the 140,000,(XX) acres which are in jeopardy of alienation to the nonslaveholding and free soil indoctrinated settlers whom such a bill would benefit, There has been a systematc struggle for years to obtain repeated grants for 'internal improvements,1 but of late this scheme like all others, wearing a plausible aspect, has been seen through. But 1 Will not nursiiA llm further for the pres. ?.t- The reader, by consulting and comparing these facts, will readily arrive at a legitimate and correct conclusion. It is useless, perhaps, to contest the point with some at the South, but it is fair that the impartial world should understand the matter and sum up their verdict accordingly. Vindicator.
