China far more likefy than Africa tv make op the

says:
Tba capabilities of British India arc great, and
th< elements ol stMcsas are there; but the oaf s
bmtiee of China are vastly greater, and I W
live tlmt as it) two or thre- years China was
able to anndraw silk'fo the vatwe of into

tony her after look for a boundless supply of raw

her-pmifde from hor own cotton lioJd*. Tbe pri
ces 1 China are mi nearly on a level wiib those
of IncUa that, tbougii they allow an iv>|>ortatioTi
to tbe yearly value of i2.kOU.tMM) or i3,1MM),000
sterling in Ujs soul hern province of China, im

Tb* ‘leality, modes of cultivation, of cleaning, of
packing, arc till susceptible of great improve
merits. Their interests will make the Chinese
teachable, and the Yaog-tee-Kiarig may he the
channel for the solution of the cotton difficulty.
Treach toUoa Manufacturrni
The French .lournol *, the week before the Eu
rope Hailed, were very generally ocoupfod with
tlm proposed reform in the Tbe Journal
<fs Ifoboit in particular ett&cks the probibitivo
svitoio, lo reference to two articles of French
maim la dure, which are stated to he seriously
aifectad by its enactments-printed cotton and
tulles. For thu former to prosper, it merely re*
|tdres to have tbe unstamped calico, at a price
not exceeding t hat obtained Sn other countries,
otherwise it cannot compete in foreign markets
with the English, Swiss,j Prussian or Belgian
productions. Tbe writer adds:
Unfortunately for tbe French manufacturers of
printed rollons, the spinner* possess a <f fmto
monopoly of fabrieatiou caused by tbe tariff which
practically excludes twist lit for the manufaeiure
of calico. Ho that, prov ded (hero ,1m an active
dMuiaud in France lor twist, the cotton spinners
ere absolute master* of the price, and sell at what
rate they pHnse. In that way they mako bril
liant profits, but they effectually prevent the
production of printed stuffs for exiM>rlatb>n, At
present this irnporiunt branch of tnunufacture
cannot be worked as it ought, as It has not
enough of oattoo, its llrst ri|iiircmetit. But the
so'Cu lied protectors of national labor are enchant
ed} the soli of tbeir country is not polluted by
contact with the calicoes of perfidious Albion.
Just the mine take place with respect to French
tulles, which at present cannot be manufactured
fur exportation. Some of thu Calais housee,
seeing tbut tho longer they delay tbe worse they
would find their position, have emigrated to Bel
gium, and there established their penates. Here,
then is an important branch of industry, the pro
penty of which would be beyond any doubt not
only satisfactory, but brilliant.

The Savannah Republican, differing with tho

Our neighbor will thus perceive that his hide

But thore is one fad In respect to wbicb, wo
think, both have erred. The Republican declares,
and the Enquirer would create the impression,
that, if ft chance fur ths election of a democrat
bad beeu presented, the American vote would
have concentiated upon him. This statement is
contradicted by the fact that a proposition for a

proposition were, that the dt tuocreoy would first
unite upou the Araeriaau nominee, and failing
to elect, the Americans were to vote for tbe De

He parses this slur upon tba legislative action
of a Southern r* tale when confronted by the fact
that tbe declared purpose of the esdl it to adopt

Mr. Pennington is -‘a fine old Jersey gwntle
ma*l,” who wo# Governor of that Stale from 1837
to 1843, during which time C'oagre.M refused to
receive Representatives eonfeethig seats, to whom
h© had given certificate# bearing the “broad seal”

other “ootiooi,” are ui.tiuifactured in large quan
tities for a bmtthum market, uud is far from be

true Block Republican, he has something us

Mr. Fitoh. T understood the Senator fVou
Massachusetts to pat sn interrogatory to the
Representative* of the Northern Democracy on
this floor. Without ascumiog to say what tho
north western portion of the party will do. I
think 1 euu tell the Heoator what they will not
do. In the evoat of rh© policy now advocated by
th© Beuator becoming the dominant policy of the
GoVerutnenl, and thereby driving oft the South
ern portion of the Confederacy, the North west
will not remain attached to New England.
North-western Democrats arc not now di#union
ists, and they hope tbe day is far distant when
disunion will he the remedy for any domestic
difficulty; but they can readily ho made disuu
ioniat# hy tb© policy and a'i# of the Republican
party: for if that policy prevail#, and the act*
arising from It etmiinoe until the present Confed
eracy is therebv dissolved, we es th# North-west
shall become disusionlsts, so far as our political
connection with New England i* concerned.
There would soon, from being a Northern Con
federacy, be an Eastern aad a Western one of th©
North. We have no sympaiky or affiliation, with
the political Republicanism nf New England—the
source aud origin, as w© believe, of all <>ur pre
scut domestic troubles. When Uiat Republican
ism Audi in what must be the only result o| it*
emcee**- disunion--we. af the North -writ, will
#o*n relieve ©ur fOeiai circle# from tb© ]Millutioa,
and our political communities fr.nu tb© poison of
it# mad funaiici#m, it* tree-love. Mainclawista,
and negro (quality.
Mr. Wilson. Tho Senator ha# undertaken t©
answer a question, aud he has not don© it. i put
tho question now to th# Senator: if Mr. Aeward.
Mr. Chose. Mr. Bat©*, Mr. Banks, or any other
man iu th© cnt>try who i spoken of, or that may
lie selected by th© Republican party, is elected
President of tbe United Htates l ask that Sena
tor if he will sustain the men who are now threat
ening to dissolve the In km 5 if he wMI join in
resisting tb© inauguration of such u President?
Mr. Pitch. Doe# the Senator expect an an
swer tn*w ?
Mr, Wilson. Y©s, sit.
Mr. Fitch. The question, Mr. President, baa
beeu Already answered. In that event, we nf ttie
section from which tbe candidate would be nclcr
ted. although we should oppose to the utmost of
our ability his election, would not deem the fact
of his election a cause for a dissolution of the
Union, but tbe pernicious doctrines of his party
might well he taken except ion to by the South;
and if that section should deem his election and
the principles of bts parly, which be would be
bound to carry out, snfflrient cause for dissolu
tion. the North-west would not long be found, af
ter dissolution, acting with those whom we should
know to have been its eaOee--th New England
States under Republican rule.
Mr. Wilson. Then it amounts to this: that if
these gentlemen who are threatening to dwsv.lv*
the Union go ont of the Union, the Senator it
not ready to go with them. [ ‘Yes, he #."] He
does not deem that sufficient eaure : bat if they
do go out, then he is ready tv dissolve tbe Union
himself.
Mr. Fitch. The Senator need not misrepre
sent me.
Mr. Wilson. Ido not intend to do so, eir.
Mr. Fitch. I say when his party by tbelr
policy and thair acts have forced upon the South
a dissolution es tbs Couftdsrsey, we, es the
Wait, will uol iemaiu parti of ths Northern Con
federacy, associated with New England; but In
rbc North there will soon ho an Easter* and a
Western l/ffion. Oar social und commercial re
lations in tha great valley of the Mississippi sud
us trihufar os, are more naturally with the South,
aside from its peculiar institution, than they are
with you of New England: and our political
aflHaimn is much sLr'.nger with the of
the iioiifh, who striva to maintntn the Comitifu
doa, than wiih you who disregard and are seek
ing to violate it.
Mr. Wilson. —The South has changed its opin
ions, and the Dean*•.rntic parly ban changed; and
beoausc we have not •-hanged, and will a>t fol -
low those new lights, but stand by tbe doctrine*
of the father*, wo ar* denounced as enemies to
the country : nod if we follow out oar won Tic
Goal, ii in threatened that a disohition of the
Union will follow ; and (he Kfewster geu up here
;uid throws nut tbe Idea thnt if these gentlemen
do go oat tbe I uiou, he will go out too. iloand
the people oftho W est will not remain with New
England.
Mr. Fitch*—f desiro the Senator to put my po
sition precisely as I stated it. lie Dret r-jur
sen ted me aj saying that if the South, because of
encroachments on thorn, chose to dissolve the
Union, we would directly or iudlrectly aid it hi
so doing. The tSeuator well knows, aa every
f-enstor within the sound of my voice does, that I
did not eay anything which cmildjustify each an
ioftfoace; but on the contrary, what I said was,
that when, by the acta of his party, the .South
wore forced oat of the C*ufedcracy, leaving us of
the North in the Northern Confederacy—a r< m
aant of the existing one—we would make that
remnant still less by severing our political con
coction with New England.

Th Black Republican Aid Soeioiie* for the

of Now York have been declared illegal by the
Supreme Court. A *uit was brought by an agent
of one of those societies in our own State to re
cover damages for s libel attend agai&st him as
such agotir, when, after argument. His Honor,
Judge Morgan, has decided that iuastnnch as the
Constitution of the United States requires the re
turn of fugitive* from service in other States, any
society which propose# to aid fugitives in escap
ing. <*r to prvrcnt their return, is illegal, and that
eonaeqttefuly u sintoan he maintained for lifae!~
ing a person engaged in such illegal act. This
decision will satisfy oitr Southern friends; and
especially if fortified by a correct decision in tbe
Lemmon Stave case, that the judiciary of New

them— y. F. Dally .V,ir*.
