The President may have Mt, perhaps, that as U first KDNMUtiv ia POWVT i a fTJ bt aW- ly organized and of comparatively rwaat origin, U vat Incumbent upon him state end dfeavi, to a certain ox tent, tha principles of kit party . Taking th view of th subject, ka eaiJ a luUe ia tkat eoaaoctioa at snigkt have boa expected ; tar less thaa President Polk Mid ia hi last aaaeal nfMirt, or 'stump speecn," M it kas been cnlW, and sot snore than was foacd la tbe inaugural of tbe him gsftUomaa, wkereiB bo reiterated, ta - nubfUaoa kia party dogma, of mW 40 ot tgkW which indiscreet utterance, from ibo eat front of thecpitol, bed well night involved as in a for eign war. Wo found fault with tko Soatkora President thea : we condemn the Nor there Pres ident aow; and as tko former receded from what kad beaa a party shibboleth, to nn bis coon try fraea being plonged ia all tbo borrora of war ; so we may kopo tkat tko. latter will alee repudiate party and party dogmas, to avert from kia country tko atill mora dreadful consequences of civil war. - 'Sack is oar belief. Tbere has been a groat varie- ty of eon ti meet respecting U addresa now ander coaaideraUoa. Those witk whom 44tbe wuh is - fata or to tko thought," affect to mo la it noikiog ' bat war a deter sninatioa to force the South to tko mall and crack out every element of opposi tioa to the Black Kepublicaa party. Others again " think It breathes a spirit of kindness,' nd - is " a peace rather thaa a war message to the people. Proaalaeet amongst tuck ia J udge Douglas, w bom w beard esoJyse i ia tke8nata In the con flict of opiaioa upon the subject, we wUl not ob " trade our owa views, but accept II r. Lincoln's in terpreUtioa of kia loaugaral. lie aays it means ' - peace, atd that ke will do all In bia power to avoid " a eolliaioau To several Soutbera members-of OoBgreat, wko waited oa bins at kia house, on Tharaday oveaing last, to leara his opinions defi aheiy, ka aaid that ka did aot intrad coercion. and that, though .tko Government was greatly ' i preared ia its flnaoavke would rather suspend any osTort for the present t. collect the revenue, than provoke a coilisioa. lie cited the gentlemen la qaeatioa to tko following paragraph of the inau I gnraarpecially : r . Tba coune here indicated will be followed, un lets current events and experience shall show a modiflaatioa or change to be proper, and ia every -. rese and exigency my beat discretion will be exer ctsed according to ei awtaaoeo actually existing ' and with a view and a hope of a peaceful solution of Ike National troubles, and the restoralioo of fraternal aympatki'a and affection.' ' One, at least, of the gentleman in question', baa been somewhat mora exacting tn his demands thaa a majority of the Southern Union men in Congress, aad he expressed himself quite Mtified witk tko asaaraacea of the President i We are not authorized to obtrodo the names of these gentle mea upon the public, though we would giro their Barnes privately, and would endorse thera every where. . V , n Nothing is said !a Ike iaaofaral about retak ing the forts, aad aobodr that we have heard speak of tko subject ia VVashinvton, imagines tkat the Administration contemplate such a course. The only apprehension of a collision so far as we could leara, originated in the idea that tko President would attempt to collect the reve noe ia the seceded States, which would be resist ed, aad a conflict of arms ensue. The assurances gives by the President la the con venation cited above, may serve to correct misapprehensions in . thia regard. But there ia an additional reason ' why we may not apprehend aa outbreak from this source, owing to the intrineie difSculties in the way of collecting revenue in the receded , Slates; of which the President would have a more perfect comprehensiov when ha shoo Id at tempt to "enforce the laws."1' Tha New York Jlernld thus strongly putath eaee t ' i oppose tkat the ship Alliance arrives at Charleston from Havre, with a cargo of silks, laces, fancy goods, manufactured articles, etc., in all, say Ave hundred packages, consigned to fifty ortnore persons. In entering the harbor the Al liance is overhauled by -a skip-ofWwar, with a collector oa board. ' The master baa nothing to bow but bis manifest, which does not particu larize the quality of the articles shipped.' It is . lor the eonaignena to produce their invoices or bills of lading, pay the duties and receive the goods. When the consignees fail to appear, the packages ar to basest to the public store, and ia case they remaia during a stipulated period, they are sold ataoctioa on-aeccant of the government. Ae- ' cording to maritime law, all. duties must be col lected within one maritime league of the port, and bulk cannot be broken until the vessel has been regularly catered within the harbor. ' Should the Executive override all these provi sions, aad declare that In case the duties are not paid according to the new regulations, cargoes will be forfeited, a fresh obstacle arises. The machinery for the collection of the revenue is not . alone executive. The Judiciary has something to ' do with it. The Secretary of the Treasury can not forfeit a pair of gloves, without legal process to be bad before a district judge aod jury of citi zens to be empannelled from the district where : the consignees reside. Where would the govern ment find a judee or jury in Charleston, Sevan sak. Mobile or New Orleans r It hi obvious that ander such circumstances, the revenue laws could aot be enforced, and that they would have to be essentially altered and remodeled. This caa only be done by CX. ogress, and there is bo ContrreM now, and cannot be until one is elect ed. S ilbout local oflcers therefore to act under the laws aad to apply them, and with a positive assurance from Mr. . Lincoln that "obnoxious strangers shall not be toroed upon the people of those States which, be further adds, "would be . re irritating aa to be nearly impracticable," we - wonder tkat the reason of oar people bM been so apset, and that they have conjured ap visions of . war and carnage immediately impending. What shadows to frighten men from .their propiiet! Whatever may be the wishes or motives of the President and we cannot undertake to define thera, further than he has done in public and in private we must see that, with inadequate mean 4, and but limited authority Congress having fail ad to pass the Force Bill be would be a madman not to ex ha art every possible expedient of a con ciliatory 'character, rather than plunge kia country . iato a war, aad perhaps subject himself to a like ' fate with that which has over taken Ihtae who have become justly obnoxious to a large number of their countrymen. . C's?nr aad bis Brutus, and Charles the first bis Crora well," said Patrick Hen ry, aad, evea Abraham .XJocola "may profit by . their example." It in aot incumbent npon us bow, to-reiterate what has beea often said ia these columns, that we eaaaot sympathize witk tbe objects, the main object especially, usually attributed to the Black - .Republican party. It k sectional and aa suck can ' sever have our support, for we regard all section. al parties m being obnoxious and dangerous to the peace of the country. . ... .. Abraham Lincoln, as the bead of such an or t ganlxatioa, fa nothing to na, and can not even claim our respect; but, having, through our din " seasioes attained the Presidency, it becomes us to consider whether it is not better to adhere to the old ship of State, evea tkough for a time aba may be improperly asaaoed, thaa to scuttle and sink aer with all her precious stores, in order thus to .' rid ourselves of anj rtdoxioos commander. ) -2Leijer President nor bis Cabinet suit oa. They were aot our choice, and there are men ia the Executive branch of the government that a proper regard for the feelings of Soutbera people should have excluded therefrom. They are justly odious. But, thia Constitutes no good season why we should Immediately, if at all, secede from the Uaioa and leave to them and their party every nabrtential benefit ia the government. We are - not la favor of Virginia's going out now, and a ' there is aothiog to sua fey remaining until the AdmiaMtralioo shall have opportunity to develop its policy, we meanwhile, consulting witk our sister Slave states of the border we prefer to do may not be amies ia this connection, to ad i vert sgaia to programmes at d platforms; for af , let ell.

A PEKCU IN THE MISSOURI LEQISLA SiJSS 1 - TUBE. .1, , - r Zifuf , laiativs to Slavery m tne ternwrtea, originaiau m ,, . ..,,: , r.,u ;r .u . ... ihn tn thn Dnutiea the effort mnde to onraaiae torritorial rorerft menu fvr those acquisitions brought us by our ne- riaUoee after the Aisxicaa war. me umot lVovbo, being aa rnterdkt of slavery, was sought U be applied to all the newly acquired territory ; and aocordtacly, ta the measure originsung witk a N ertkera Dseaecrat, enacted by a Demoera- tie Congress and acqukeced tn by a ooutnern smeeraUo Prasideat, known as the Wilmot Pro vasA, aa grafted apoo the bill creating a terri torial rovarnraeat for Oregoa. This was what we aderatand now to be the Black Republican poll cr. tkourk we ds r4 pretend to allege that it euestltated any part or the principles "of the IMSKrrlio party ; whilst they are certainly re- sponaiaje, so tar as aumaa legtaiuon u ooocern ed, rr the status of affairs In Oregon, and for the met that she came tnto the union at a me state. But, ta all probability, Oregon would have been a free Stat under any trircumslancea, for nature bad settled this question irrespective of any or all human legitlaUoa. And so tt win he la future; sad there aever wns a more barren abstraction about whk-k ta Wtrcy a great Government than this quest voa of slaver v in the territories. Our chief purpose, however, ia referring to this matter at thai time, is to show what was done un der a Democratic Adminl Ira lion and Congress- assuming thatthat party, as it claims, hM always . . . . . Deen sounu on we slavery quesuon, in conimss with ar hat was done by a Black Republican Con great; that we may illustrate the worth of pro grammes aad platforms. Tbe last Congress, after the shameful defection and flight or the Southern members, leaving the South in a hopeless minor!- tr. not ohlv passed bv the necessary two thirds vote a constitutional provision declaring that the federal Congress should never interfere with slave' ry in tbe Slates, but it organised three territorial governments, without so much as mentioning the word slavery therein I Under the Dred Scott de cision, therefore, any Southern man ran take his slaves into those territories, and tnore hold them Tbere is no Congressional interdict: so that, tn this respect the Black Republican Congress failed to put that "brand of inferiority" npon tbe ooutn by prohibiting its citizens from going into the new territories, which a Democratic uongreea ana President did put upon . We state the fact merely and leave others to attach what impor tance thev mar to platforms. We believe, and deem the opinion well found ed, that the disruption or tbe Black Republican party is imminent; that this is simply a question of time, and that it is destined to a speedy over throw. All tbe signs indicate it, ana the war now going on ia Washington between the re spective factions is absolutely terrific It must go to pieces, but God grant that the country may be saved. Holding the foregoing views, we oppose, as we have ever done, the hasty secession of Vtrgicia: and though the pressure upon us be never so great, e shall endeavor to be true to our own convic tions of doty to our State aad country. Though deported by all, we shall stand up for the Union m it was, and as we hope to see it again, when tbe reign of fanaticism and terror shall have pass ed awsy. But, a as true and loyal son of Virgin la, our destiny shall be bound up in hers. Wher ever she roes we follow. Let her ask a confer once of her sister States of the border, so that all those having a common interest mar act togeth er ; and our people will accept their decision whatever it may be. Bat, we warn them against hasty and passionate action. ' These are the times for calm counsel, fur patient hope, for high our. age and firm resolve neither yielding to the reign of terror" that la soognt to be set up among t us, nor to the unconstitutional aggres sions of our Northern fellow citlxens. We trust ia God that all will yet be well. i- LxaLix Combs oir thk Carats. General Les lie Combs writes to bis son in Missouri : "Mr. Clay, the 'immortal Harry of the West,' as be vu sometimes called, gave me notice of tbe coming danger more than a quarter of a century ago. South Carolina the leading tory state in our revolutionary war was ripe for dissolution in 1833-3, but General Jackson's energy and Mr. Clay's humane wisdom postponed the storm now bursting over our heads. So, after tbe adoption of tbe compromise measures of 1850, sustained by Clay and Webster of the whig party, and Cass and Douglas xf tbe democratic party, South Carol line tried to fire the Southern neart,' and, ia Mr. Yancey's significant language, 'precipitate' the Gulf states Tnto revolution. Toa will remark tkat be does not ssy hMlen, which means to ex pedite or move them more rapidly into a revolu tion, for then they might pause and turn back, when reason took . tbe place of pacslon ; bat to 'preeipilatf- them, make them at once leap over the perpendicular cliff of rebellion into the burn ing gulf of revolution, from which be hoped they could never leap up again to the broad level plain of liberty aad equality in the Union. With this view, and for this purpose, they are now pressing matters in tbe South to the shedding of blood, supposing that in this way they can even draw off old Kentucky ike birthplace of soldiers and pa triot from her firm attachment to the Union, which wm formed by Washington and his asso ciates, and drag ber at the tail of insolent South Carolina. May God in his infinite mercy avert these dire calamities. : My son, do your duty, and never disgrace your native State, come wbat may. -Yours, truly, LESLIE COMBS." A Voicx tor Tax Umov rxNzw Orlixics. The New Orleans True Delta still stands firmly by the Union, and daily thunders forth its denun ciations of . the Secessionists. : It concludes aa article denouncing Mr. Buchanan as a traitor to bis country, and Senator Slidell as havinz clung to him "While there was aa office to dis pense, a job to be consummated, or a country fa be irayed," with tbe following prediction : "Our opinien is that, sooner or later; the abor tions of Washington and' Montgomery will be brushed away, and the true Democracy of the nation, enlightened by the past, will resume the administration of their country, purify its counsels, do justice to all sections, and with a united front again place this nation in that com manding position before the world from which villainous conspirators for the moment have degraded It" "A gentleman of Pittsylvania county, Virginia, a strong secessionist, ia February last, being dis satisfied with the course things were taking in Virginia, went to Mississippi, for the purpose of buying land aad to J remove his negroes to that State. He has just returned, and called on the Delegate from his county to say, tkat tkough be kad thought Virginia was slow, "I hope she will be slower still that he saw but few of tbe sub stantial, wealthy proprietors ia Mississippi who were not dissatisfied with the coarse of events South, at the prospect of heavy taxation, and of ao benefits ander the new order of things that they could dU expect under the old Uaioa : and told him "that if Virginia and the Border States got such guarantees as would be satbfactory to them, they had no doubt that Mississippi and the Gulf States would return." He has concluded to remaia ia Virginia. Alex. Qasetie Pottos is SrixjTuocs Liqvoaa. In a com municatioa to the Boston Medical and Surgical Journal, Dr. Hayes, State Assay er of Massachu setts, states that he has made a somewhat extend ed series of analytical experiments on spirits, and ia no case had be found that any deleterioua body had been added by manufacturers to distilled liquors. T Cases of sudden poisoning by low priced common spirits frequently occur, but these are caused by the fusel oil 'which Is produced by the fermentation of mixed grains. ' - American distilled spirits, when allowed to be come old, are lees deleterious tbaa most of the for eign brandies. I a newly distilled spirits, howev er, there is a source of great danger which should be generally known, asls is of special interest to the medical profession. Of t'lese. Dr. Hayes says that the newly distilled spirits of she most com mon kind often contain salts of copper, of lead or tin, derived from the condensers in which the va pors are reduced to a fluid form. The quantity of copper salt contained In the bulk. usually taken at a draught is sufficient to produce the minor ef fects of metallic poisoning, and the cumulative character of these poisons may even lead to fatal consequences. Ia the "old spirits" examined by Dr, Hayes be found that those metalic salts had all deposited to the bottom of tha task. v.. spirituous liquors and the drew at the bottom of ue cask mar, I Hero for, be considered highly poisonous.

MORS .GRUMBLING. .The course of affairs at Montgomery continues to displease the correspondent of the Charleston Mercury, and he states his disapprobation with a frankness that is in marked contrast with the com plaisant praise which the secret and half under stood proceedings of tbe Congress secures in other quarters. Ia a late letter he comments on the appointment of ex-Senator Mallory as Secretary of the Wavy; The confirmation of the appointment of the Hoo. S. R. Mallory, of Florida, as Secretary of the Navy, is the chief subject of comment relative to the actions of Congress on yesterday. The con firmation took place in secret session, and I am not prepared to speak positively, but a strong, un contradicted rumor prevails to the effect that vig orous opposition was made to his appointment. The objections are understood to have arisen out of the 'reconstruction", views entertained by the honorable gentleman, and that be was not reject ed is perhaps due more to the vague and oncer tain character of the charges, coupled with the de ference felt by Congress for the nomination of the President, than to any other cause. He is said to kave carried these views so far as to look forward to and contemplate future persona, advances bas ed on his attitude as a pacificator and conciliator at the time of the secession of his Bute. In a matter of some negotiations at Washington he it charged with bad faith towards Florida, besides surrounding all his acts, In connection with the two separato powers, with equivocation and un- from VtnrMa nrobable resignation is moot ed, and certainly such a course, on his part, would tend rroatly to allay feeling, and at once place him in a position to vindicate himself tr, indeed hMrfMim win,niMin at the samo lime dispel' ling the mist and gloom of uncertainty and doubt which at present envelopes the' rectitude of bis conduct. - ' I ... , - - MISSOURI CONVENTION. St. Lottts. Maiih 10. .Yesterday J udge Gam of the committee! on federal rela tions, presented the report of lhat committee. Th nmrt is lonir . and carefully! written, and mtitrM a faithful ernoaition of all the circumstan in.,Ai.fiinti rmoitWi and affectiner the interests of iMissourl. . It recounts the evils of, which the South mav riehtfullv complain,. and admonishes! the North that th hostile fanatical feelinirs towards Southern institutions manifested by large numbers of jtbe people of that section are productive C-niy OI evil, ana express w a better knowledge of the subject will remove their prejudices. The report , does not assume a threatening; attitude towards either section of the eountrT.but noints out the errors of - both,' and concludes with the following resolutions, which are a reproduction of the main features of tbe re- )ort:, . ' . "Resolved,, That at present there is no adequate cause to impel Missouri to dissolve ner connection with the federal Union, but, on the contrary, she will labor for such an adjustment of the existing troubles as will secure peace, and the rights and -Beeolvedi That the people of this State are de TOtedly attached to the institutions of our country, and earnestly desire that by a fair and amicable adjustment .he present causes of disagieement may be removed.the Union perpetuated, and peace aod harmony restored between the north ana South. - T ", ' ; ' "Resolved. That the- people of this State deem this amendment to the constitution of the United States, proposed by Mr. Crittenden, with tbe ex tension of the same to tbe territory hereafter to bvacauired. a basis of adjustment which will successfully femove tbe causes oE difiurence ior ever from the arenaof national politics. "Resolved, That the people of Missouri believe that the peace and quiet of the country, will be promoted by a convention, to propose amendments to the constitution of , the United States; and this convention drees the Lezislture of the State to take steps for! calling such a convention. -Resolved. That, in the opinion of this Conven tion, the employment of military force by the Federal Government coercive cf the seceding States, or the! employment of military force by thesecedine states to assail tbe government oi the United States, will inevitably plunge tbe mnittn in rilril war. and tbftrph axtinniifch all hope of an amicable settJementof the issues now oendinz. We therefore earnestly entreat- the federal government, as well as the seceding States, to stay tne arm or military power, ano on no pretense whatever to bring upon the nation the horrors of civil war. ! ' "Resolved, That when thisconvention adjourns, it adjourn tojneet at Jefferson City, on the third Monday of December. . : f -Resolved, That, a committee be elected, tne majority of ijrhich shall have the power to con vene the Convention at such time and place, prior to the third Monday of December, as the public exigency may require." I t . i The reportlwaa ordered to ae printed. The State senate passed resolutions yesteraay that our Senators be instructed and our Represen tatives requested to oppose the passage of all acts granting supplies of men and money to coerce the seceding States into submission or subjugation, and that should such acts be passed by Congress, our Senators tie instructed and our Representative requested to retire from tbe halls of Congress. STEENGTl ENING THE DEFENCES OF FORT PICKENS The importance of thj recent move of Lieut Slemmer ia erecting a sand battery to the east ward of Fort Pickens, is thus explained by the Mobile Advertiser of the 6th instant : The sand battery defonds the only ' land ap proach to x ort licken. which stands on tbe ex treme western point of Santa Rosa Island.; The island is some forty miles long, but very narrow, in many places being scarcely more; than a third of a mile in width. J be battery stands on a narrow part of tbe island, and is an effectual outpost to prevent surprise irom a Biorming iorce. : i If we are tq come to blows with iancoins'a Ad minstration we shall want to take Fort Pickens and will try ; and as we have no navy, and our batteries on tile "main-land can only play at long taw with that powerful island fortress, which, can more than hold its own at that came, and destroy any attacking Jorce approaching in boats, the most feasible metnoa or. attack is to throw a powertui force on to Santa Rosa Island, several miles to the eastward, crowing them over from 'the main-land across a sound about a half mile, more or less, wide. Once on the island, their programme would be to rush down on Fort Pickens and take it by overwhelming assault.

Tbe deceased was connected with somebf the best families in the State, was liberally educated, graduated as a physician from one of the first col leges in the country, and' married the daughter ot a wealthy citizen of: Boston. : Naturally of a free and generous disposition, and fond of. good living, be did not accumulate any property, and some eight years since went to California for the purpose of bettering his condition. ; While he was absent his wife's father died, leaving her a band some property, the income of which has enabled her to live with ease and' elegance in Beacon street, but upon"-her husband's return from his unsuccessful trip she refused to lire with him, ex pressing n other reason than his misfortunes in business. ;;-. .'-.'.-..-';-..,?'."' v.: .:'':;.'

During all this long and painful illness his wife and. daughter, al though living in affluence and luxury, have nev er visited him or contributed a- shilling to keep him, from starving. The last day that he was able to go out was on, the occasion of the visit of the Prince of Wales to this city.; With the as sistance of two crutches he managed to reach the common, where he saw, for the, last time, his wife and daughter the latter a young lady of twen- j ty but they did not deign to cast a look of recog nition upon the cripple ana pauper, ana who had once borne the endearing title of husband and father to them. , . , . n -, AN ADVENTURE IN THE HOLY LAND. Those of our readers (and they are many) who remember the Rev. Dr. Jthn Leyburn, for many years the favorite pastor of the Tabb street Pres byterian Church, of this city, will be interested to leain that he has recently met with quite a ro mantic, but exceedingly unpleasant adventure, in the, Holy Land. For some months past Dr.; Ley burn has been engaged in making a tour of the old world, and arriving at length in J erusalem, started. on the 26th of December last, upon a visit to the Dead Sea and the river Jordan. He was accom panied on tbM trip by Mr. C. F. Low, of Minneso ta; and they were attended by in experienced dragoman, and, for a guard, a mounted Arab sheik, and another Arab on foot. On the morning of the 27th, when they were riding up the valley from the Dead Sea to the Jordan, they encountered two suspicious looking .Arabs, with one' cf-whom the sheik pretended to transact some "love-charming" business. ! , ' . About an hour and a half passed away: and both gentlemen had bathed- in the Jordan, and were ingering upon its .banks, when suddenly the at tendants Jumped to their feet and gave the alarm of the approach of robbers. Not twenty steps off row of lances glistened over the. tops of the bushes, and, in another instant, a party of savage Bedouins, armed to the teeth, confronted the little party. Aiming their lances point blank, they rushed directly towards them, and it seemed that their doom was sealed, to be massacred on the spot. 'Abe party, nowever, stood firm, In the very face, as it'were, of death, and tbe robbers perceiving that they would make no attempt to escape, turned aside their lances, and leaping from their horses, rnshed upon them, stripping them, without ceremony, but rather with demoniac ferocity; of money and clothing. i - i Mr. Low attempted to defend himself with a revolver, but it missed. fire, and most fortunately. for had it accomplished the purpose of his aim, the blood of the Bedouin would have been aveng ed with his death. He was stabbed in the cheek. in the reoontre, and overpowered.' Mia clothing, with the eception of drawers and socks, his mo ney and gold watch, were taken from him, and the dragoman and Dr. Leyburn were stripped of ui uut tueir unuercioioiog. . Ajucauy, XJT. Liit by the advice of friends, had left most of his val uables and money in Jerusalem for safe keeping. Ane iooi-guara bad taken to bis bceis tbe moment the alarm was given. . The poor muleteer had scarcely a rag left npon him. . - Tbe robbers gave back to the sheik his clothing and trappings, when he put out for Jericho, as he said, to bring soldiers, the robbers having disap peared. The muleteer followed, and says Dr. li, "Mr. Low, the dragoman and myself, with a don key,an umbrella and a hat, were all that remained." In that plight, they made their way in the best manner possible down into Jericho.: Their joint loss was between six and seven hundred dollars. The intelligence of the robbery spread like wild fire, and tbe Pasha being put in possession of the facts, promised a speedy and n compromising ven geance. The robbers were nine in number, and the two suspicious Arabs first spoken of were doubtless their tyior Petersburg ( Vo.) Express. Niobo MkCHAHica. An article in, a late num ber of DeBow's Review, jfrom the pen of Judge Hopkin's, of Mobile, directs attention to the in jury which the writer thinks is likely to be in flicted on the South by the system of instructing negroes in the mechanic arts, and employing them as mechanics. He nays: !' i -It it be desirable to preserve the patriarchan system of negro slavery now existing at the South , as tbe very best basis of social order and moral and domestic integrity, which none! niay doubt who has evoked wisdom and virtue in pursuing the question, slaveholders should allay the antag onism in their midst, by agreeing through legis lative action, to confine the negro to the sou, inns to elevate and open the mechanic trades to. the non-slaveholdiag people around them. . Dignify the trade to the level with the professions, ia com mon acceptation, and idling, loafing, lounging, fox-hunting, or in other woods, general dissipa tion of health, enenry and time, among the young men of the South, would almost cease, and in their place be substituted general busy industry. By confining the negro to the soil, the mechanic would be at once converted from an open or secret enemy of negro slavery, into its firm advocate and sup porter, because he would then feel himself lifted up in the scale of social respectability, and main tained in that position . by the subordinated neero. confined exclusively to menial service.
