It did not qocur to us nt tho time, that •the presentntion of tliin view of the question would lie so count rued us to confine us exclusively to the duss of la- borers specified. We wrote under tho the -npprelionsion thnt popular sentiment wus rapidly tending to the abandonment of freedmen labor, nnd fastening upon tho idea of Imported lubor. We aimed ut nothing more than giving this whole- bii’c idea ft wholesome cheek, and to di ve'. attention to lulroram rnoro available now among us. Wo used the word lu- lxir In u somewhat restricted sense, that of a plantation or farm laborer, and in tliis restricted kind of labor, wo think the freedrm-n altould not be suppiuntud. When wo look at tho broud nnd glaring fact, that otfr ooilnhy, unsurpassed in its natural resources of materia! wealth and prosperity, is lagging far behind otfitr countries, greatly inferior in all the natural elements of wealth—n fact re sulting from tho singlo cause, of Wunt of laborers—*wo certainly coald not have put ourselves in opposition to the intro- dilution' of laborers from abroad. Wt* uro, however, mftnifcstly in no condition now to b(i*.urd our very subsistence it self, in the enterprise of imputing labor ers of any kind.

And the following: The Radii ids in Congress refused to j*nss an net declaring that when tho Southern States ratified the Const it u tionul AoiwoIumhU I heir rpprrseotiitires should be udmitted. And yet the Radi nils try to make Ilia people believe that those amendments will lie rrgarded ns a finality ! The truth is, they do not in- t«nd to maku the Constitutional Amend ment us n basis of settlement. 'They wore simply nut f rl h to create a fa Ire issue until the election*. They know thnt their |tf>wcr would be lost ns soon ns the Southern States were restored, and the l i-t tiling they iotund to do is> to liitiro from j tower. cd in Jlrld labor. Tt is well known that 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 Springs, ho Was sad mid directed, nnd the iutuee of his grief ut such u time elic ited much enquiry among bis numerous symputhiring friends and acquaintances. He confessed, after many entroaties, ilmt he had recently sustained a heavy loss of forty thousand dollars ; but for sov end days persistently refused to arquant his interrogators, how, or by what means, tho Goddess of fortune had turned this ill to his account, torrent with the world, finally, however, he yielded with great rcluutuuce, nud disclosed tho whole truth He hud met a young lady from Nash villo nt the Springs-formed o pleasant aequnintnneo with her, and, niter mrcr- taming, beyond all doubt, that sbo wus worth forty thousand dollars in hard cash, he uourted liur, nnd, to his utter us- tonishfiicnt and discomfiture, she refused to marry him, and consequently the forty thousand della s resulted iu a total lo. s, 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 had in tho wardrobe. Put on our 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 ia prospective political fortune which wo huvo thus sustained; und liko lovo- stricken and disappointed swains, wu weep our briny tears, und pour forth our disconsolate grief in secret. Oh, for some undiscovered balm, to euro a heart stricken pcoplo of tlio pnngs of inordin. ate niitl disappointed |*olitical love I— Alas, for our wretchedness! Will tho sun still shine upon us, nnd tho cooling breexoft still refresh us, now that the Un ion refuses to lut us in? Will the ruin 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 hatred? Will tho birds still sing, tho 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 and respond to its ungodly exactions lor unconstitutional taxes. This wo have done and can ponliquerto do, until some chapter* in the undeveloped fulftre, shall unfolded which nIihII make it the io- Unust of our oppressor* to reiiuvo us, or which shall jHiico it in the power of our penpleo to relievo themselves. Empire may be unlimited as to extent and boun daries, but never bus been and never enn ho as to duration. The potent evils of universal suffrog**, now the evident ten dency of our consolidated government may soon outcrop iu u total change in our constitutional iheories of government sn event ns little to bo doubted ns dread ed, or tho party in power may soon run riot to their own overthrow, mid tho in- luctlou into power of those w'e vuinly suppose nro our friends—or it may lie tit, in the overruling provideno of Gml to bring order and prosperity .out of confu uion und ruin, iu a way now concealed from our short vision. Or it may be thnt weak and insignificant as wo appear, wo nre to ho made available, as tho bal ance of power, to restore order to thy discordant n*.d contending factions, in t'-o very crisis of the fato of constitution ul liberty, thnt we inny yet live to soy tlio nneient worship of tho Temple re stored- It scorns to us that it ia n« competent for the States in tho Union to declare the amendment adopted without our concur rence, as proposed without us. The cinuso of the Fodurul constitution which directs how amendment* are to bo ad j»- tod, is of no higher authority or more binding force than thnt which declares bow they shall be proposed. There are many opeuings for an issuo; thut of the counting votes in the Electoral College, is however tho most promising. In that event wo do not noud n Tullomnd, but s Nnpoloon.
