THE NOK" -SLAVEHOLDERS OP THE
SOUTH.
In his address entitled " The Doom of Slavery
in the Union," lion. John Townsend, of South
Carolina, n?es this language:
Accompanied as that measure is to be by redu
cing the two races to an equality ox in other
words, in elevating the slave to an equality with
the white man it will be to the non-slaveholder,
equally with the largest slaveholder, the oblitera
tion of caste and the deprivation of important
privileges. The color of the white man is now, in
the South, a title of nobility in hid relations as to
the negro; and although Cuffy or Sauibo may be
immensely his superior in wealth, may have his
thousands deposited in bank, as some of them
lave, and may be the owner of many slaves, as
some of them are, yet the poorest non-slaveholder,
being a white man, is his superior in the eye of
the law; may serve and command in the militia;
may sit upon juries, to decide upon the rights of
the wealthiest in the land; may give his testimony
in court, and may cast his vote equally with the
largest slaveholder, in the choice of his rulers. In
no country in the world does the poor white man,
whether slaveholder or non-slaveholler, occupy so
enviable a position as in the slavcholding States
of the South. Ills color here admits him to social
and civil privileges which the white man enjoys
nowhere else. In countries where nepro slavery
toes not exist (as in the Northern States and in
Europe,) the most menial and degrading employ
ments in society are filled by the white poor, who
arc hourly seen drudging in them. Porrrty, then,
in those countries, becomes the badge of iiileriorty,
and wealth of distinction. Hence the arrogant
airs which wealth there puts on, in its intercourse
with the poor uian. But in the Southern slave
holding States, where these menial and degrading
offices are turned over to be performed exclusively
by the negro slave, the status and color of the
black race become the badge of inferiority, and
the poorest nonelavcholder may rejoice with the
richest of his brethren of the white race, in the
distinction of his color. The poorest non-slave-liolder,
too, except as I have before said, be he de
based by his vices or his crimes, thinks and feels,
-and acts as if he was and always intended to be,
-superior to the negro. He may be poor, it is true;
but there is no point upon which he is so justly
proud and sensitive as his privilege of caste; and
there is nothing he would resent with nmre fierce
indignation than the attempt of the abolitionists to
emancipate the slaves and elevate the negroes to
an equality with himself and his family. The
-abolitionists have sent their emissaries among that
class of our citizens, trying to debauch their minds
by persuading them that they have no interest in
preventing the abolition of slavery. But they can
not deceive any, except the most ignorant and
worthless. The intelligent among them are too
well aware of the degrading consequences of abo
lition upon themselves and their families (such as
I have described them,) to be entrapped by their
arts. They know that at the North and in Eu
rope, where no slavery exists, where poverty is the
mark of inferiority, where the negroes have been
put on an equality with the whites, and ' money
makes the man," although theman maybe a
negro they know, I say, that there the white man
is seen waiting upon the negro; there he is seen
vbeying the negro as his ostler, his coachman, his
servant, and his boot-black. Knowing, then,
these things, and that the abolition of slavery, and
the reign of negro equality here, may degrade the
white man in the same way as it has done in those
countries, there is no non-slaveholder in the South,
with the spirit of the white race in his bosom, who
would not spurn with contempt the scheme of"
Yankee cunning and malice.
Not Thkre. -It is said that Wm. B. Astor,
'when called on to make good his liberal promise
of millions to Lincoln's Government to carry on
the war, incontinently backed down.
a
A Lasso Duel. A couple of Arizonians, one
a native-born Mexican, and the other a boatman
from the Mississippi, who had lived in Arizona
about a year, fought a duel on horseback some
time ago, each armed with a lasso. The Ameri
can, who it was thought, would stand no chance in
euch a novel encounter, except the chance of be
ing strangled, lassoed his foe at the first throw of
Ms noose, and dragged him over the plain at the
full speed of his horse, until he was mangled and
bruised almost to a jelly.
Gen. Samuel F. Cary. This corrupt, lying
hypocrite, who travelled through the South a few
years since as a temperance lecturer, and was en
tertained everywhere with the most unbounded hos
pitality and kindness, and no where more so than
by the people of Asheville, lately figured in a
Black Republican coercion meeting in Cincinnati,
where the vile old ingratc breathed out -'threaten-ings
and slaughter" against the people whose
hospitality he had enjoyed, and whose money he
-had fobbed. Asheville AVic.
JRsyWashington is a doomed city, no matter
-which party succeed in the impending conflict.
It will never again be a national capital. It will
mever again be the capital of eithei a Northern or
:a Southern Confederacy. For the first it would
'be too far south. For the second it would be too
far north. It would be too much exposed in either
case to be permanently occupied as a scat of Leg
islation, or as a place of deposit for public records.
Without trade, without even a good climate
not situated in a fertile country, when it ceases to
be the scat of the Fedenl Government, it must
cease to be at all. The capitol which never has
been finished, never will be. Its gilded and
frescoed halls are already occupied by Goths and
Vandals, if indeed it be not a libel upon those
noble Scandinavian races to compare them with
the hordes that rally at the call of Abraham Lin
coln and Wm. H. Seward.
Gen. Twiggs, late of the U. S. Army, has ad
dressed a letter to ex-President Buchanan, in
which he says :
"Your usurped right to dismiss me from the
army might be acquiesced in ; but you had no right
to brand me as a traitor. This was personal, and
I shall treat it as such, not through the papers,
but in person. I shall, most assuredly, pay a visit
to Lancaster for the sole purpose of a personal in
terview with you. So, sir, prepare yourself. I
am well assured that public opinion will sanction
-an j course L may take with you.
Imprisonment of Southern Citizens. The
Richmond Dispatch remarks very properly, that if
Southern men of Baltimore are to be arrested by
Federal troops, it is time that the South should
begin to. retaliate. Already Rodgers and Wrijt
the Navy Yard incendiaries, and Gen. Harney, "the
bloody tyrant of Missouri, have been in our hands
-and have been treated with a humanity which they
did not deserve. Hereafter prisoners like these
must be held as hostages for the conduct of our
heartless enemy.
Suicide. Wm. A. Lenoir of Caldwell County,
-committed suicide by shooting himself in the head
oo the 15th inst He was subject to fits of mel-sncholy..
THE BLOCKADE ON WHISKY.
We sec by the Cincinnati papers, that whisky
is selling in that market at 1U cents per gallon,
and the sales arc very slow even at this ruinous
figure. When it is recollected that Cincinnati
whisky is the meanest to be found on any portion
of God's fobtstool, and that a half-pint per day
will destroy the life of any man, no matter how
robust he is, in the brief space of three months,
we have cause to congratulate the Southern Con
federacy, that old Abe has enforced the blockade
on the Western waters. The war in which we are
now engaged may be protracted through three,
four, five, six or seven years. Let us place it at
the lowest figure, and the Southern Confederacy
saves by this blockade to fight its battles, thousands
of valuable lives, which would otherwise fall
victims to the deadly article distilled in and around
Cincinnati. On the other hand, the Porkopoli
tans will not allow the article to "pile." Added
to a life-long fondness for whisky, will be the cheap
rates and great abundance, facilities which must
greatly hasten its consumption, and thus destroy
the Buckeyes and the Hoosiers by the tens of
thousands. The sword and gunpowder will not
prove half so fatal as this fire-water; and thus we
shall see our enemies disappear like frost before
the sun. Trying this view of the case, have we
not abundant cause to thank old Abe for his
blockade; and can we not, out of seeming evil,
educe much good ?
Domesticities. If the tender leaves of the
whortleberry bush be gathered and dried, a tea of
moat delightful flavor can .be made from them,
equal in every respect to the beverage produced
by the veritable Chinese green tea.
Sassafras can be obtained at all times and in any
quantity around our city, and the tea made from
this is relished by many persons.
Coffee made from rye is not over bad to take. If
it has any fault, it is too stimulating.
Owing to the great demand for flags the price of
bunting in New York, has gone up from seventy
five cents to eight dollars, and book muslin usually
worth not more than ten cents now brings a dollar
per yard.
