We invite the serious attention of our readers to the article wo copy from the Richmond Enquirer??' Abolition Agencies." It presents ir^strong and truthful language, a subject worthy of the niosl anxious couai lerntivn, and expo.soably ami faithfully some of the many expedients hy which the North pains an easy access to the Southern mi ml. Is it not, truly, high time that this mental bondage?this slavery in its most aggravated form, woro removed? Is it not . high time that the literary vassalage wo herein acknowledge, to tho people of the North as io n superior race, were cast oil and forever repudiated? Are we not content to pay pecuniary tributo to out Northern masters? Is it not enough, that by the inhjuitons device of a system of taxation, artfully arranged and |di*gui?cd, and called impost duties?a tariff 10 raise revenue, &c., the Southern people are annually dofrnuded of thousands and lens of thousands of dollars, and all to pamper an overgrown monopoly, which has grown in olcnt and domineering by virtue <f the very tributo we have paid, nml which has enriched them? la il not enough that we pay our Northern task musters tributo in every conceivable form, and must we consummate our slavish bond igo hy the super added tributo wo pay for its literature! A literature that omits no opportunity, but is ever watchful of un occasion to assail?to tab us in tho most vital part 1 A literature, which, so far from 1 acknowledging any sympathy with our institutions, is tu stunnisiy devote ci 10 their overthrow ! It must bo difficult, indeed, yes, impossible, to find intbo whole 1.intory of the piw|, n parallel to the judicial blindness that 1irs soized the Sooth on this vital subject It is absolutely amazing, and w? can account for it only by the hypothesis, that the Soathern mind is not?cannot be fully awake to the extreme iianger with which wc are threatened, and which may soon environ as. Of ill the imaginable forma of sorvitude, that of mental servitude is the most debasing sud odious, of all forma, it is the most utterly and irredeemably ^ hopeless. Acquire the power or pivirjr ,?$ to a people their literature?of prescribing EI to them what books they shaH read, and to dUpcoae their Inws whl be an enay tran si lion.
