In Mime measure the mind of the South is Mi l fettered hy the fuilacie.iof tin unenli<iiiteued n*:e, until it Kiiliivlv escapes from the homing.-, there should he no pause in the work of dUeitjMoti mid agitation. In the Sont'.i, iit least, nobody will now venture to contend that slavery wants the support of right and reason; but very fre<|Uenily ?? In-nr intelligent people deny that it can Mibstt in a certain climate or hold its own ai;aiust the rivalry of hirelillit labor. Although tin's.- fullneii-s do not stiike ai the. mot of the n.stiin'.ion. they arc yet of sufficient iiupoitnucc to justify a furiiml refutation. The idea that tin* slave labor of the South cannot compete with lb.' hiieling labor of tinNorth, is the reference of a narrow and sii|ieiticial observation. People see hireling labor in exclusive posves.-iou of the Northern Slates, anil without more inquiry they conclude that slave labor lias been <! iveil from tli?? hv a Ic^ritimate rivalry. Is such the ease? Is ii tiue tliat the two interests contend in lair competioii J ? \\'n? slavery allowed equal advantages in tin; North? All emphatic negative will l>c the re* uponse of every man who knows anything of the history oflhe country. From the lotilidaliou of the Government. its policy has been directed to the end of restricting the expansion and impairing the interests of slave labor. l'rc.m the foundation of the Government, its policy has been directed to the end uf stimulating the develop, mcnt and aggrandizing the lot tunes of huelini; labor. The oiriiminuc of IT*?"/ imposed an arbitrary interdict upon the extension of slavery into tt region peculiarly propitious to its esl ahli:-liiuout. The Constitution itself, in otic of those con.j rnraises which it is the fashion to applaud, di-.-rimiu'Ued iu favor of hireling-labor. In the division of political power belween the North and the fcouth, every hireling laborer is rcekonej a unit iu the constituent body, while no representation id allowed for two fifths of our slaves. Then, again, a positive and peremptory of piohibition is imposed upon the importation of n.-gio slaves into the country; while on the cutrarv the immigration of white laborers is invited by every inducement of interest. And such has been the consistent policy of the Government fi-?*i 11 1 "S'J to ISS.1). i'rotcclive Tariffs, Fis-hery lSciiuties. Internal Improvements, and National Hunks, Were BOllle of the expedients p!< >yed for UKpurpose of ujrgrumliz-nir the hireling labor interest.

The policy of the separate States lius been of a piece with the policy of iliu Federal Government. While the South freely admits the impoitation of hireling libor, the North excludes slaveiV from its soil l?y po-itive enaetiVimih --NVlulu^lie.feP'1'I' prolecis I lie white lutierer ill the enjoyment*?T tB7r?fcrojjts ? ! Ins industry, the North annihilates the value of tli-- sI.rw?-IJni momemt h>* co.ies within the reach of its power. The South is in no way inimical to the interests of hireling labor; the North impairs ih>- security At' slave property by every mode ot attack and annoyance. Since, then, slave labor is not allowed a fair competition with hireling loboi?-ainee the one iuterest is embarrassed by every Mntof huk1. ii ituil impadililent, and the other is free from all hindrance and assisted hy every advantage? since the Noithern States will noi permit slavery to try its chances on their soil, while th?*y claim mid enjoy an equal livalry foi their system in the tsoulii; since tliese tilings arc so, how can an} lnuly venture to athrm thai slave labor is incapable of sustaining itself in the oonio.it with hireling labor? Arc wo not rather driven to I lie conclusion that the productive energies of hireling labor are inferior to the productive energies of slave labor, when wo discover, that despite to great a disparity of advantages, the social system of the rtouth not only holds its own. but is stronger, more sccnro and more Aggressive than at. any former period of its history? Notwithstanding the invidious support of tin* Federal Government mid constantly accumulating reinforcements from abroad, so far from gaining tip >n its adversary, the hireling labor of the North acknowledges itaelf beaten and driven from its strongest positions. Notwithstanding the exactions and oppressions of the Federal ( oveminent?not with standing the exclusion of succor from abroad anil the restrictions impos-d upon its development, the slave-labor cf the South in admitted, even by its enemies, to exhibit an incomparable prosperity anil an irresistible power. In view of these facts, is it not wonderful that sensible people should talk about the inferior energies of South eru institutions?

They do not pre tend thai the nejjro is less capable than the while man of enduring the severity of a Northern winter. Tlioy do lint deny that, us a mere j.hysic d ouergy, lahor operates with the satno eirect in every climate. They da not contend that hireling labor is absolutely more productive Ihuu td&vo luhur. Tlirv will not maintain thai, while hireling labor is profitable in tiie factories of New V*llfflnnrl n ii/l f- - r ,l1-- 1 b .... .hi. limn ui Illinois, siave ia* bor would be worthless in these same employment*. They cannot utlinn, in short, tliut llic elTcct of a mechanical forcc depends upon derives of lutitude, or that nn article which is valuable if produced by u hireling white man is of vio account from the hands of a negro slave. The chnmpiotis of the isothermal theory maintain none of these propositions, and yet you heur them couptantly clamoring aliont. an imaginary incompatibility between tiie existence of slavery and the rigors of a Northern whiter. If these people would think a moment they would discover that other influences than tlioscof climate determined the relative geographical resiliences of slave iii.d' hireling labor. They might recollect that Idve labor is excluded from the North by the arbitrary restrictions of legislative enactment, of which there would be no necessity if nature hail interdicted its existence alroven particular parallel of lulitudo. But, we acknowledge that the natural tendency of slave labor ;s towards tin* extreme Southern States; and why? Not surely because alave labor, like a delicate flower, is unable to endure the rude breath of a Northern blast. The explanation is obvious and conclusive. Hireling labor cannot subsist in the South, because the constitution of tho while mail withers under the fury of a burning sun. But the world CALiiot do without the cotton, ?ugMr, tobacco and rice of the South; and, inasmuch as hireiihg labor is unfit for the production of these reticles; inasmuch, too, as there is barely a sufficient supply of slave labor (tr the purpose, it to lllln thai alufA ?I.** ? -I 1 - J - V IU- VI oiiuillU l>? con cctitratcd in tlie South?e*|>eoially ciuco prohibitory enactments and a superabundant cupply of hireling labor ctcUroe it from the Nonbern States.

Scott with misconduct 1 in granting an armistice, and bribing Santa Anna | at the siege of the city of Mexico. His letter '; has elicited replies from some of the officers ol that canipaigne. Among them Gen. Hitchcock says that Pillow's loiter is " filled with nrtfullyet.itod half-truths, which arc often a species of most Hutet.table falsehoods." Again he says that "Udiierul 1'illtnv finds fault with the armistice granted by General Scott lu the Mexicans while their government was yel intact within tlie city, and hud the highest motives for making u peace to prevent having the street* of the capital dishonored by the trend of a foreign army. Generul Scott knew that the city was virtually in hi* possession on the evening of the battle of Churuhusco, and I heard him tell tlio Mexican Commiksioners so Qt the moment tlicj* presented the application of Sunla Anna for an unnistice. " General Scott ki)0w that he could enter the city, but he knew, also, that his doing so would disperse the government, and that it might re? quire whole months afterwards to find a government in condition to make a peace, as proved to be the cuse, when, finally, he did enter the city. There was a reasonable liope of avoiding that ilalav hv acceding tf? th? _ . ? ? ,..?|.xoi;u UllllUfUCe.?

Out of six hundred passengers, only about one hundrid ami seventy-live were saved. What a terrible scene it must have been at the moment of the going down of this ill fated ves-ol. She went down about y o'clock at night, during a heavy 1 storm nf wind, rain and lightning. Hv reference ; to o.ir first page a more extended account may ! be seen. We clip the following from the stutej nieiit of oiio of the rescued passengers: I ' I had provided myself wish life preservers 1 and a piece of spar, and determined to go down with the vessel, with tho great mass of the passengers", all of whom stood about hraeiug themselves up and scouring what was most available to buoy them up. .She finally went*Vrni' fi>r?niost. I was standing iieai; the smoke stack at tile nine, aim we T>*ere all 11 ragged under water with the sinking ship. The general supposition anionic those that were saved is that they were drawn at least twenty feet under waier, ami when we finally ruse to the. sin face we were stifled with salt water. The rapidity with which 1 was drawn down tore the spar from my hands and the life preserver from my body, and when I reached the surface tny clothing was almost stripped oil'of mo. 1. however, met u friend who had two lif--preservers, who gave me one, and we also seized on pieces ut' tf.e wreck, which helped to sustain us. "On reaching the smface of the wafer I her*, was at b-ast four hundcrd passengers struggling about in the water, some sinking, tillable it swim, having lost their life-preservers, and others seizing oil to the pieces of the wreck which came up with us. The captain had cut awa\ the upper works of llic vessel so when tin liull sunk th'-y would tliuii oir. but they were ?lr?|xiro?l down, and cmne up in fragment..*, mul doubtless ninny were stunned and drowned by being struck with the pieces of llio wreck, whilst to others, they were the ultimate meant of Filfety. Ail occasional Hash of li*;1itnin^; showed to each othei a sou of strugnling forms and all cheered and encouraged each oilier. Al tir.it we were all in a muss together, appearing i at a glance like a crowd of cattle swimming, | but soon the Waves Separ ted lis; and at. c.'leli | succeeding Hash of lightning we discovered thai we we re being separated anil scattered over n j wider area, until we soon each found ourselves apparently alone on the ocean. !

After heiug an hour >:i the water, I saw j one of 1113' fellow sufli.-rers.
