That society*, ht/' least throughout Christen dom,'is progressing more rapidly than at any past historical period, seems sufficiently evident from the single fact, that population is increas ing faster thau at any forrhor tiuic. I>y Hu to Iiis'early wants nnd poverty for tiisTmo'cbcst Pie has Bdccec'dcd because bo waB'born or came to active' Hfo hs a debtor. ?

The taxing or exploiting of labor by capital, can never become a general or serious evil in a country like ours, where an almost illimitable extent of fertile unsettled hind invite:-, iinmi gration, aud enables laborers at all times to es cape from any unreasonable terms that capital ist's would - impose. But before we proceed further, if will he best to illustrate and expound more fully the doctriuo that capital commands, but does not pay laborany thing ; except in the ?few instances where in employing laborers, capitalists trench upon their capital and are not 'repaid by'" the results df the Work of the laborers. Capitalists build houses or ships or railroads, and pay their laborers pay two dollars a dfty. If these improvement* after erection are worth .what they cost.-.the ri they h;rvo p;tid their hi-. . borer?: nothing,- for they rot aim their e.ipital in stead. "They Und their laborers; have only cx .changed equal values ;?. for ' capit.il is but ac cumulated labor, human labor ahme possessing :vtduc; ? . .-wit v*V '? I f tho improvements be worth.athird more than they cost, then will the laborers have paiUj for the privilege of being employed, on,; third of the results of their labor to their employers. All the profit made by o^upjdying labor, i* L'p much tax levied or exploited frpni the laborer.' Tjjfow it is .n'reciaely tlr.s profit wlych capital 'commands and exacts from labor, without pay ing any value therefor, that creates all wealth ; that build up cities, and towns', aud canals, and railroads, and steamships,"and palatial private residences, and theatre.} aud churches, and, in fine, all visible tangible wealth?and thus speeds the carol' human 'progress. The heavfeV the tax th:?t capital levies or ex ploits from labor, the larger will be the fund arvumulnlod- to be experme? in wnYkiWu*' and utility, and in the many luxuries df lilc ilui beget refinement and high civilization. Hence- the most progressive and prosperous oountricsrare those where paupers most abound thho ] tujterj being tho laborers whom cttpitril has taxed so heavily as to deprive them of tho 'moans if subsistence; It laborers were per mitted to consttmo all that they produce, ther would bo inching to tic cumulate, nothing to <_?>: pond iu the luxuries and refinements ; famines would he frequent, human progress would cease, und human retrogression would begin. Indeed; very soon all men would relapse into tho savage state ; live in caves'or cabins, und wear 'skins for clothing.

Is to live by theft ; becati e property docd not breed, and in living on it income, we are us!tig it as a mere insfrttiuent t" exploit, tax, fir rub with, just as burglars use !'.ibo hoys. I'ut property does' make ample compensa tion to the masses by compelling ihent to work, and (ho doctrino is as old as Ilie tiinri (if Meri iWtiius Agripp.t; whilst the practice liegitn With tfie dawn of divllizatinii'.

No doubt in those portions of Europe where popblrition ' h dense, and cbWcqucntty rents voryhigh, capital docs oxeroise a most cruel l?iKpcxaeting dominion over labor, ten time.: .nmr$ oruol and exacting tbau tbat of any po litical govorninont. For nil governments do .much to protect the poor, whilst capitalists on ly tr.x them. 'Yet, oven in Europe, well or ganised and cheap node of emigration are doing much to relieve the laboring classes from cxccf.dvo exploitation by ihe property-holding classes. Throughout Christendom cheap modes of transportation are everywhere liberalising institutions, by andrding means of relief to lite laborer against the undue extortions of the employer.

In Louisiana the decrease is 33 per cent. Iu Arkansas the decrease is 30 per cent.. The causes of this decrease are stated to be various, among which arc enumerated general indebtedness, scarcity of money, pauperism, loss of copital in skives, tho unsettled condition of tho country, the fear of confiscation aud tho dread of upgro domination. These causes are numerous cuough aud powerful cuough to cause any country to wither away, 'flic wonder is not that the whole South is blighted, but that there is auy vitality hit iu it at all.
