The profits and the comforts of agriculture depend mainly on climate, soil, labor, and the facilities for disposing of surpluses of production. The first two, climate and soil, ( - should be congenial to product requisite for I 'I'C sustenance of the husbandman himself, lof themselves. I u both points North Car olina is higlily blessed, in her positiou on the globe, -she occupies that temperate and happy mean, which is conducive to health and the vigorous exertion of the faculties aud energies of body and mind, in employ ments tending more ihan all others to the hospitalities ami charities of life aud the oth er virtues of the heart, and which consti tutes a climate, that, in unison with her fer tile soil, yields abundantly tn the diligent tiller nearly all the necessaries and many of the luxuries requited by man. We do not work barely to maintain life ; but, beyond (hat, to realize gains that may be employed iu the addition of other things productive of the elevation and refinement ol civilized man. , Our winters, by their duration anil rigor, tlo not confine us long within doors, nor cause us to consume the productions of our labor during the other parts of the year; but we are able to prosecute our field opera tions and comfortably pursue our productive employments tluouxhout the four seasons. Tlmuirli not of such extent of latitude as thereby to create much variety of climate, ! nd consequently of production ; yet, the di ! mensions of North Carolina east and west supply that deficiency in a remarkable de gree.

I use the expression, "the time came" instead of "has come," because it is a joyful fact, that some persons in va rious parts of the State, many in some parts, have improved, and continue to improve their lauds and increase their crops profit ing much therefrom in their fortunes, and setting the rest of us examples by which we ought also to profit.

It is a most important element in the cot, amount, and value of produc- tion. I very frankly ayow the opinion that our mixed labor of dee while men of Eu ropean origin nd of slaves of the African race, is us well adapted to the public and private ends of our agriculture as any oth er could be making our cultivation not less thorough, cheap, and productive than it would be, it carried on by the whites alone, and fur more so than the blacks by themselves would make it; and, therefore, r that it has a beneficial influence on the pros- ' perity oi tne country, anu the physical ami moral state of both races, rendering both better and happier than either would be here without the other. Of course, I am not -about entering into that controversy which has connected itself with the contentions of sectional factions, struirlinz for political power, It is unnecessary that I should ; for every one is aware, 1 believe, ol the nature f the controversy and the motives of the parties to it. 5 It is one of the conservative j cnCcts of slavery to impress on us deep j conviction of the inestimable value of the 1 Union, and a profound reverence for the' j Constitution which created it; and hence v,c habituallv cherish a good feeling, as of 1 brethren, towards our fellow-citizens of j every S'ate, and any deed or word tending j to impair the perpetuity of the Union and the eftkitMiry of the Constitution and the laws pissed iu accordance with it, or to alienate the affections of the people of the different States from each other, is seen with impa tience and frowned on with indignation.
