' ' bae loot belieVed that a portion of the prees of tbe North baa cultivated aod min'utered to a . depraved pnblioUjve for notorietj by ipraad t - ing before its reader the "ajings and doings . . of men whose acnuuien a and Uoguage arc the cry last which shoal d be f laced before the pablie. Some of thee mu and women, crave - notoriety for Taaity'a sake, and others iek it from mixed saotiTes of vanity and laere. Were the pes stodioosly to refraioT rom Uk iag the least to tie of them they would sink to their proper level and cease to occupy the thoughts and conversation of the public. Of late the New York Times,' although itself guilty of the same offence, ha charged re peatedly, that the New York lie raid is in the par of the Abolitionist that nudcr the raise of firing news-matter; it' publishes al the incendiary transactions at the North, aod ' thus while seeming to. be the friend of the South, and for that reason having obtained a circulation in the South larger than that of any ten Northern papers eombtoed, is enabled to spread fax and wide among the non-i-lavehold ers of tha Sooth, and negroes wba can. re id, the moat incendiary and dacgeroua'matter. The Times, therefore, thinks Yhat the Herald . is a soueh more efficient missionary for the Abolitionists than any agents which they can end to the booth, and we are very much of the same opinion. If the Herald is the true friend of the South, which it elaioas to be, lei it eeaie loading down it columns with the speeches, .resolutions, io., of the Abolition ists. If it is sincere in its vindiea'ioo of the right's of the South, let it content it-elf with combatting abolition sentiments in a manner less injur than that of sending the poiaoa into the South, while whit it clums to be the antidote gos along with it. If there is no poison sent, there is no an-idote nee led. The potaoa circulated by the Herald may be mora powerful than the antidote sent with it." The doctrines of the Abolitionists are now as well known at the South by all interested in guard ing against them, as at the North, and if the Herald will expose their destructive tenden ey to the whvle Union, and give a warning note from time to time, of their movements, - it will do good to the Sooth, and the- whole country. It will by failing to give notoriety - aod moitey to xfiillips,.Beeber & Co., sink them into a local or sectional reputation, while it will be educating a Northern sestiment in a , manner more calculate J to maiatam the constitutional rights of the South than its pre ' sent mode of circulating a hogshead of fire along with a gill of water, and thusconviooeas that its professionaof sympathy and icgard axe siooere. Northern papers are as much to be ' looked after now by the South as Northern pedlars, or co-workers wuh Hintoo Helper. A canning, uwdious newspaper, with a large Southern circulation, may deal a bl'o to the South much, more effectual tnan any which eaa be given by open and avowed Abolition ists Pamphle'eers and B ok writers. The emanations of tho U'ttr can,, by tolerable . vigilance, be kept out of circulation, as tbey eome among us in aa un.iustskable shape, while tbo-e of the former mar circu ate, as wehavesaitl before, under 'he g iUef friend ship, 1 vast deal ot poUoo wi'h a very inade quate quantity of antidote. It is so difficult for the .Pusi-foce to wa'eh over the circula tion of the new-paper press, that the poople of the South, not trustiog to "any safeguard which tbey can affor i. should rort at once to a CaxUineaie Jy. Let all wLoare opposed he circulation of incendiary matter in the soth refuse to subscribe to any Northern pa ler which- publishes in deuil the faobac ons, arguuients, 4tc, of AbolitionU'i:, no natter bow seemingly indignant may be the tditorial comments upon them. By pursuing 'us course ws shall narrow down th field to b, waubed bj the Posioffiies, and tbey would -tljref6re be the better able to detect any at tmpt to circulate incendiary matter. ;' Io very Soutbem community, if this oourse was pursued, it could be easily knon who were the fubaeribers to, and circulators of, mitter Whkh should not have currency. By pur suing this Jurse the people of the South would lose no-hiog, and gain a good deal. The fashion, the scandal, the inquisitionsinto tthe affairs f domestio life, the details o rapes, seductions, robberies, arsons and mur dersin a word, all tht constitutes the "apt eineas"- of some of these papers, might be dis pensed with to the great beneat or the morals of the South, while the demand in the South for good conservative pspers, reliable for in formation In all matters, commercial, politi cal and otherwise, would surely be supplied As we consider our remarks as entirely ger mane to thooe of the Dispatch, we shall make no apology for the' length of our preface to the subjoined article : A Rxmidt. There is only one mode of reach ing the blatant abolitionists of the Wendell Phil lips school, and that is, not to publish their peecnea. The newspaper press presents a rostrum from which averv vilW orator and evarr moon struck fanatic in New JCnz'and and elsewhere, of every color and both kiss, can insult tno wbpie country with tbair ravings.

To aay notbioc l the po-itive Biisobief they effect, of Ibe bad bloud tbey engender, and the oonnagra tion and ruin to which firebrand, even in the bands of fouls and monkeys, may give rise, why should the press give consequence and position to men and women who are not entitled to it, intel lectual! v, tnorallv, socially or politically f The law ran never reach tbe$e garrulous incendiaries ; but they can he reached and strangled by the re fusal of tht Northern pres to notice them in any wayorshapo. It is not. of course, slavery that tbey are specially exercised about ; it is themselves, it is to see their names and their pcechcvin the papers; to exult in the idea that the whole coun try, and particularly the South, hears their impu dence and is excited and annoyed at it. Notorie ty is the breath of their nostrils it is their ddily bread ; their blood and bone, and without -it thev would go out as inevitably as a lamp without, oil, or a candle burnt out, leaving nothing lit a dirty and offensive wick that could annoy only thost ina its immediate neighborhood. Why, tbero jsn t another country under heaw-n where one ot of a thousand of such creatures as have a daily hearing in the New York Herald and other journals of wide circulation, eould gather a crowd of a hun dred at a corner, or, if be could, would not be committed to j-il as a nuisancer Once more we say to our Northern contemporaries, collaie these Pbillinses. Garrisons, and other abolition wind-i bags, by never publishing the slightest account of their miaerable speeches or intignjficant Nes. THE ABOLITIONISTS AND THE DE CLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE. It is one ef the stereotyped arguments of the Abolitionists that slateryis denounced by the Declaration of Independence which asserts "that ll men are created equal. As tbe Abolitionists have brought forward the Declaration of Independence as a witness for their rde, they are bound to take all that their witness says, and not to pick and cull the evidence ti suit their peculiar views. Now, we undertake to say, that the Declaration of In dependence recognizee most clearly tbe insti tution of rdavery, and founds upon the exis tence of it a substantial reason among others why the colonies were justified in absolviog themselves from all allegiance to tbe British crown, while it gives a wttnering recuse to the villainous conduct of the Abolitionists of this ay. Great Britain . prompted the negro slaves of the Colonists to rise up as insurgents against their masters, charged with being in rtbdlion against ber, and placed arms in their bands to mike tbe iniurrection effectual, just as Old Brown proposed to stir up and arm the slaves of Virginia and the Sooth against their ; masters. Ia the catalogue of reasons why f all allegiance to George the Third should I . be renounced, we find the following He has excited domestic insurrection amongst us." What, we ask, is this but a distinct recognition and endorsement by the Declara tion of Independence of tbe institution of sla very ? Had the framers of the Declaration designed when declaring all men to hare been created equal, to denounce dometio slavery as a violation of the rights thy were solemn ly asserting in jne of the most momentous papers ever , published for the consideration of tbe world, would they ' have assigned the act of the Briti.-b crown in arming these peo ple and . inciting tbem into an insurrection sgaiast the masters "O iniquitonsly holding, them in bondage, as one of the reaFona which justified them in declaring tbe'r indepen dence! The idea is monstrous and absurd, and oould only find a lodgment in the cracked brain of a fanatic, or emanate from the lying ps of those who preaoh abolition for vilely selSh and mercenary purposes. , So far from pur Declaration of Independence being a wit; oess for the Abolitionists, it is a witness fo be legality and morality of the institution o' slavery aa then aod now existing. -. .

SOUTH CAROLINA'S MISSION TO VIR GINIA. , While we hope that the ambassador' from South Carolina to Virginia will be ; treated with all tbe re peofc due to the State which he will represent, and to bis own high character, we do devoutly hope that the Old Dominion will not lend a favorable esr to a. proposition either to join in a movement of secession, or in "a call for a convention of all the 8tates of the South. ' Whatever some of the Doliticians may say, tue Southern people are not only unprepared for either of these movements at this Urns, but absolutely opposed to both. -The people of the Sooth have commenced a peaceable course of action towards the North, which, if persevered in, cannot fail to secure to the South all he protection which she needs for ber rights and property. The pol icy nf breaking off as far as possible, and as rapidly as possible, commercial intereonrse with the North, although just commenced, has already began to tell upon those who bave so Men 8, yhnsiian Association of this city, pro long fattened on the Southern market. videdihalf the proceeds were given to the Thinking men at the .North, the men whose capital furnishes the main springs of com- meroe and maattfactures, see the certain ten- dency of this aetion at tbe South, and aie, as well they may be, alarmed at it. Many mer- csntile snd ' manufacturing establishments will, this year, suffer severely by the with- drawal of Southern trade, and of course will continue to suffer more and more as tbe South becomes more and more independent of the North. In this paper will be fosnd a para graph among the news items informing us of the discharge of over one hundred hands from one oKthe largest manufactories in Philadel- phia, in consequence of the withdrawal of Sou' hern orders. ' The same eause may con- fidentjy be expected to produce similar move- ments by other Northern Factories. We shall hear, too, of the discharge of clerks in mercantile establishments, the fall of house rent and real estate, the hying up of vessels, and discharge of seamen engaged in tbe coast- ing trade, (a trade greater in value than the foreign trade and so on will the work of de- nn iY , tYia .im.. ;nm.MKU 6 branches of industry at the North. The ef- fect of all this will inevitably be to produce a cessation of the hostilities of the Abolition- ists. They will have no time to think of. the A ' horro's'of slavery, and no money to pay for its abolition.

Let us then, for 'the sake of every thing -we bold dear, discountenance row every thing that squints towards the dissolution of tho Union.

The water power is most abundant, and situated at a Pint peculiarly favorable for the profitable carrying on of a variety 0f .manufactures. The different railroads meeting there furnish every desirable facility for oarrvine off to the .

If I we mean to fight the North in the Union, our most. effectual mode of doing it is to manufac- ture for ourselves, and byyo doing we will j dmgo the North much more effectually th" coal4 b7 tbeuse of powder and ball. The people of the South will encourage all manufacturing enterprises which may be em- barked in at the South.
