wo huvo to draw almost exclusively up
on our agricultural products for the sup
port nnd development of ovury other iu-
tcrost. If tho prodiico of the field is
diminished from want of labor, It will
require no great nugneity to predict the
fate of every branch of industry, trade
and profession. In any country, espe
cially in an agricultural ono liko mini,
wltcro the consumers aro in cxe.- ss of
the producers, tho bare nocessuries oven,
will bo scarce, nnd, consequently, rule
high in price, nnd entail hardships nnd
suffering. If wo would avoid such a
state of things, wo must, therefore, turn
u larger working force into the field.
Hut how can it bo expeetod thnt the
plnntcr will project himself upon any
extensive plunjing operations, incurring
Inrgo expense in tho way of outlay,
wlmn the thing of freodmen'n labor is
so uncertain, by reason of his having no
powor of control over it? Wo know
that this idea has boon erected into u
standing operative difficulty. It Iiuh ob
tained among us, we are inclined to
tbtak, moH'ly, if not altogether, from the
change of relation between tho whites
und blacks introduced by the recent war.
Ws venture tho assertion, that tlio pres
ent and first year’s experience in tho la
bor of our freedmen, has pructicully de
monstrated tho falsity of the position;
for it is undeniable that tho mass of tho
the freedmen, on our plautntious, huvo
worked well, nnd been under good eon
trol. Why, then, in the faueol our own ex
perience to the contrary, should wo give
in to tho idea that our power of control
over field labor is gone ? Tho form ol
Unit |siwur na i* formerly wus, it is true,
has changed; but the power itself eiill
remains. I.ct it not be once imagined
tluit anything liko arbitrary or illegal ex-
erclso of the power of control is here
thought of. Tho force of which wo
eponk, and by virtuo of w hich the lubor
of the present year has been accom
plished, comes necessarily from tho very
nature of tho case. The power of
trol over lubor is inherently lodged in
onpitul. Our lands, with the necessary

He confessed, after many entroaties, ilmt
he had recently sustained a heavy loss
of forty thousand dollars ; but for sov

rcluutuuce, nud disclosed tho whole truth
He hud met a young lady from Nash

The mUfortnno of our bachelor friend
nnd Ins grief, to some ex'ent, illustrate
our ideu of the losses wo have si’rtnined
by tho recent Northern elections, nnd the
dcs|K>ndency that las, in consequence
thereof, seized tho public mind of ^ the
South. Wo made love to tho people of
thu North, and to the States ii. tho Fed
eral Union, nt Philadelphia in Conven
tion, through tlio press, und hv all tho
avenues of approach known to tho laws
and usages of the degenerate limes in
which we live. Wo dressed ourselves
in the best nnd most tolerable costume

most fusciuuting manners, nnd have
bowed most obsequiously st tlio footstool
of tho adored Union. Wo saw nothing
but her bonuty, nnd lured by its trims-
condanl lustre, we exhausted tho mother'
English iu terms of praise und nduiution;
and resorted to a downright flattery. Hut
still, for til these exertions, she gave us
“tho mitten," nnd, now, all our grand no
tions of |ai]ilioul foitunes uro gone
glimmering through thu dreams of
things that wore." Now aro wo cast
down by tho mollification of heavy Ion

wo huvo thus sustained; und liko lovo-

Alas, for our wretchedness! Will tho

breexoft still refresh us, now that the Un

showers still full nnd tlio guntlu dews bo
distilled, now that tho Yankee nntion re
fuses to wed us? Will corn nnd cotton,
ryo nnd wheat, rioo nnd tobuc«j, peas
and potutoeH, sugar cane and orange
still grow in tlio soil branded by Yuiikoo

flowers stili bloom nnd send forth their
fragrance, uud will beauty still smile and
greet us now, that tho people of the
groat nnd conquering North see noiliing

unconstitutional taxes. This wo have

chapter* in the undeveloped fulftre, shall

which shall jHiico it in the power of our
