trading to its friends. “That there is a meliora
ting influence pervading the whole system of sla
very,” we agree; but the eflfcct of it is and will be
very different from that which the author appears
to anticipate; for this, as we have long ago stated,
will do more thitn all else to perpetuate slavery,
by conciliating the feelings and opinions of the
world, removing the cloubts and scruples of its
Opponents, and satisfying all parties, that it is the
best of all possible conditioris for lire negro him
self, as well as most salutary ami beneficial to the
general happiness, order, morality, and prosperity
of the country. In reply to the latter sentence,we
cannot better convey our own opinions of its er
roneous and objectionable position, than in the
following language of our able and intelligent cor
respondent at the North, as contained in his
published in our last: j
“ I feel some apprehension, that doctrines, ori
ginating at the North, and received without exa
mination at the South, may at length prove inju
rious to the latter. It is admitted here, as a boon
to the South, that the Legislatures of the Slave
States, alone, have the authority to emancipate. I
deny their right to do any such thing—or any
right on earth to do it, but with the consent
of the owner—else, of what kind of use or pro
tection, is that clause of the Constitution, which
declares that private property shall not be taken
for public use, without compensation I—and, how
could the Legislature compensate the people, for
their slaves, but by taxing the same people, for
the amount necessary to do so I which could bo
nothing more or less, than taking them without
compensation. Let the people be ware of this
insiduous doctrine. There is a day coming, when
their present assent to it, may be used to their
rUin. 1 '
Now, can any one suppose that the Southern
people will ever be willing, to a man, to give up
their slave property without compensation, or that
a majority of the people, on a question like this,
would have any just and equitable right, to plun
der the minority, however small, or whatever the
motive I If, then, emancipation were effected,
rightfully, by the Legislatures of the slave Slates,
“under special instructions from the citizens of
those States,” let it be distinctly understood, that
such instructions must bo unanimous, and not of
an ordinary nature. This is no ordinary ques
tion, and is not to be decided by ordinary rules. It
might happen, that one section of some particu
lar Southern State, containing a majority of its
voters, might be very little interested, directly, in
slave property, and, under some temporary excite
ment, as in Virginia, labor to overthrow the
whole system ; but, surely no one can believe
that it Would bo justified in so doing.—We
fully concur with our correspondent, on the dan
ger of this specious and delusive doctrine, anil
earnestly join with him in cautioning the South
ern people to beware how they thoughtlessly ap
prove or tolerate it, lest it grow in public accep
tation, and, at some future time, crush them and
their country, with the weight of an unconsidcrcd,
inconsiderate, prejudiced, intolerant, and over
whelming public opinion.
Having thus noticed what wo consider objec
tionable fcatorcs in this excellent work, we again
earnestly recommend it to the public, as one of
gtcat merit, and abounding in valuable instruc
tion ; and trust that the foregoing strictures will
not prejudice any one against reading it, since
those who do, will find these few objectionable
points infinitely overbalanced by excellent argu
ments, and highly important and instructive
truths, which should be read and considered by
all. As a whole, it is calculated to do much good;
atid our object in noticing the points objected to,
is, not to discredit the work itself, but to guard
other writers who may follow, against similar ad
missions, and call the attention of reflecting
minds to the natural objections to them, injurious
as we believe them to the general argument, and
at the same time wholly gratuitous, useless, and
uhnecessary. Moreover, the subject is peculiarly
a new one; and it is altogether too common for
the advocates of the South, to use loose and in
discreet admissions, which are caught up and re
membered by their prejudiced opponents with
far more avidity and tenacity than ought else,
and viewed by them as faint glimmerings of the
real truth, accidentally or forcibly breaking
through studied attempts to hide it.—We have
studied this subject closely and deeply for many
years, and have noticed with deep mortification
and regret, the weak and injurious admissions of
Southern tnen, and the force with which they
are turned against them, whenever occasion suits.
We believe that this peculiar error, more than
might else, has justified and sustained the move
ments of the Abolitionists, particularly in Eng
land, (where the first important ones commen
ced,) as all must be conscious of who have read
the discussions between the English Abolitionists,
. and the West India Slaveholders, and marked
the weak and futile efforts of the latter, to excuse
what they admit to be an evil, and conciliate
their opponents by liberal admissions and con
cessions, in the foolish hope that they would be
satified with these, which, on the contrary, were
all turned against them, and used to their ruin ;
rather than to boldly and fearlessly defend it on
its true grounds, and vindicate it fully and entirely
against the world. Had they done this, at first,
we have no doubt they would have stayed the
opposition in its infancy ; but their own admis
sions, more than ought else, served to fan the
flame, and condemn them in the estimation of
those who looked into the argument on both sides ;
and their final voluntary surrender of the ecclesi
astical government of their negroes to the clergy,
in the foolish hope of thereby conciliating their
friendship, ond satisfying their scruples, soon
sealed their total ruin.—“History, is philosophy
teaching by example.” Let the Southern people
mark the history of the West India discussion,
and the examples afforded by it, and, as they
value their peace and safety, and the welfare and
prosperity of themselves and their country, be
ware that they run not into similar fatal errors at
the South, and. by conceding the main points of
the controversy, throw the whole power of the
argument into the hands of their opponents.

Arrived in this city yesterday, and took lodg

may he live to enjoy it, and that heartfelt gratitude
of all true Southern men, which he has so justly
and nobly earned, and which ever warms and ex
pands at the mention of his name.

assertion, he can very readily do so by calling on

' would observe, that Mr. Eve never skulks in the
performance of his duty as a citizen, or a politi

Rev. Mr. Kennedy, can say this much for him.
after his recent displays at the Barbacue on Sat

The papers arc unusually destitute of any local
intelligence of interest, arid there had been no la

A very spirited meeting, (says the N. V. Star,)
has been held at Hartford, Coilnecticut, against
the abolitionists. Legislation, however, is not re
commended. Why not call upon the constituted
authorities to pass laws making it a criminal of
fence to print and ciiculate Incendiary tracts’
The time for action has arrived.
We learn, says the Boston Post, from a tolera
bly authentic source, that our Government arc
fitting out a vessel of war for the protection of
American property at Para.
The cold weather, (says the New-York Star of
the 26th ult.) has now fairly set in—thermome
ter down to 60 and 50 deg. in the day, and the
temperature frosty and chilly at night.

Steam Packets for Europe, —Application will
be made to the next Legislature of this State,
(says the N. Y. offer. Advertiser,) for the incor
poration of a company to be styled “The Atlan
tic Steam Packet Company,” the object of which
is to establish a regular line of steam packets be
tween this port and Liverpool. It is in contem
plation to build vessels of about twelve hundred
tons burthen, and two engines each ; when it is
expected the passage out can be performed in
twelve days, and the returning one in fourteen.
Captain Cobh, one of the most cxpcrinccd of the
packet captains, has charge of the enterprise.

Frost. —A light frost on Wednesday morning
showed its effects very distinctly on pumpkin,
pea, and potatoo vines. In the country, welearn,
they had a slight frost a week ago. It has been
too light in this neighborhood, we think, to affect
the cotton seriously.— Courier of yesterday.

Florida Silk. —We have received for inspec
tion, a skein of sewing silk, made by the fair
hands of a young lady at her father’s on the
Watelacoochoy River, Hamilton county, Florida.
The silk is beautiful and strong. It is said to be
her first attempt, and owing to the small number
of worms, she has only made a pound of sewing
silk byway of experiment. —Tallahassee Flori

, REMARKS.
1 COTTON continues to decline daily. The
' highest price paid yesterday, that came to our
I knowledge, was 15) cents, and the sales wore
. mostly made at 15 cents. We quote 14 a 15)
cents. The receipts arc heavy, and becoming
more and more so every day, while the river is
. very low, and the market very dull; and if the
I Planters continue to press their Cotton upon the
- market in its present state, Wc fear that prices
1 must continue to decline; We earnestly advise
. them to wait the Arrival of farther news from
> Liverpool, and a rise in the river, when wo trust
f that confidence will revive. Wo can see ito ra
j. tional or visible cause for the decline in Liver
. pool; and as it was probably brought about by the
. speculators, in combination, perhaps, with the
spinners, wo trust that a little time will have cx
’ posed their movement and revived the market,
, and load to a revival here,
f FREIGHTS.—The river is very loss ;no
means of shipping yesterday at any price; and
we arc informed (hat the Rail Road cannot take
any more cotton for some time.

THE VOICE OF EXPERIENCE
HAS SPOKEN ! and the afflicted are orti e
more called upon to listen to facts which
I Cannot he controverted ; for a few ye’trs past th«
INDIAN VEGETABLE ELIXIR lias effected
more euros in the ctlses it is recorifmendcj for,
than any other medicine that has Over been a,-
coiiimcndml to the public. It is confidently re
sorted that in 90 cases out of 100, it has had the
desired effect in removing Rheumatism, Gout,
Pains in the Bones, Joints and Muscles. A few
ol a great many proofs are herewith submitted.
So important is it always to have it at hand, that
every family would do well to keep it by them in ■
ease of need. So effectual has the Vegetable In
dian Elixir proved in all those cases in which it is
recommended, that the proprietor fuels authorised
to slate, it will died a cure in ninety eases out of
I a hundred, when taken according to tile printed
1 directions accompanying each Bottle.—The Elixir
is composed entirely of Vegetable in gradients,
and may be taken without the least risk or injury
to the constitution. It is unnecessary to say mo e
in favor ol' this invaluable Remedy ,- too many in
this community have already been cured by it, for
its virtues long to remain unknown, and it must,
and will become the universal resort of the afflic
ted here, ns it has done in other places. For the
further satisfaction of those who may feel dispos
ed to doubt the efficacy of this medicine, tl.o fol
owing Certificates are submitted : Its reputation,
j however, is now es'abti..hcd in every neighbor
hood in South Carolina, and hundreds of our most
respectable citizens can testify to its truly admira
ble qualities.
I Vito can doubt Hu efficacy of die Indian
Vegetable Elixir,
This is to certify, that I, the subscriber, have
for several years past, at stated periods, been
grievously afflicted will, rheumatism, and have at
intervals been confined to my house tillable to at
tend my ordinary avocations. 1 had resorted to
the common remedies, without obtaining relief
Hearing of the value of Dr. Fitch’s medicine, I
applied to him for the same, and have, os I t.ust,
by the efficacy of his Indian Vegetable Elixir, beta,
perfectly cured. On one occasion 1 was for morn
than a month in such a situation, that I could not
move my limbs without assistance, and by making
use of one bottle, was restored. At another tinio
I was fir !i/e space ol throe weeks unable to leave
my house, and by the u-c ol one bottle, was again
relieved. 1 therefore recommend cordially, and
with groat confidence, tl.is invaluable specific to
those who are afflicted with Rheumatic com
plaints. WM. BARCLAY.
