{£vi-tUccM« Cljcomut & Bmliml 15 Y WILLIAM S. JONES tfffjronule cut ft Smttnel. A U G US T a7g A : FRIDAY,". OCT. 17. Negro Blaclianles. A correct view of the questions involved in determining (he expediency of any legisla tion against Negro mechanicj, wou Id require the inquirer to go below the surface, and ha7e some insight into political economy. Political economy, which is but the application of en larged common sense, rectified by experience, to the mode of dealing with National wealth, and promoting National prosperity, leaches that the effects of a given change often reach vastly farther than would be anticipated. The effect, for example, of labor-saving machinery is not to diminish, but frequently vastly to en:arge, the amount of labor of the particular sort it expedites. This results in part from the diminution of price and consequent enlarge* ment of consumption. A familiar example has been often quoted illustrating the princi ple. Before the invention of printing, seve ral hundreds, say some thousands of manu script writers made their living by their pens. The printing press was invented. Their occupat on was gone. But now many thou sands, nay, tens and hundreds of thousands of men are engaged in the work of printing— making type—making paper—making presses *—b riding bocks and various other collateral woiks. The number of men engaged in me-ely directing newspapers from the offices of publication to subscribers, is probably great er than the entire number of copyists, prior to the change. An impulse was given to a half dozen other occupations—or rather, as many new ones became necessary. Now the supply is vastly enhanced. Every one has books and papers. The alteration has been not more favorable to the wor d at large, than to the classes who labor to gratify the tastes of the world. A like difference may obtain in many oilier matters between anticipated and actual results, i One efleet of the prohibition of Negro me chanics would probably bo tin introduction of vastly more foreign labor. The iff<ot of this might be to keep down prices to the present level, by the competition of a class cf per- ; sons accustomed to an inferior inode of liv ing. If, indeed, the effect would be to elevate the price of articles manufactured, the legis lation would operate injustice upon the par- ! ties who purchase and consume such articles. Or if the legislation extended to the protec ion , of all classes, there would exist a more tension 1 —a legislative restriction—burdening all cla.s- j es and benefiting none. If Mngrn l«b«» 1 employed in manufactures enlarges the product, or the quality of the work, or dimin ishes its price, then is it u> just to the rest of the community to deprive them of the bene- ' fits thence accruing, unless some compensat ing advantage is given. If this be given, it is not at the expense of themselves, but of the protected class. Then, the protection is counterbalanced by an equivalent disadvan tage, and government has interfered without benefit to any one. We are much in favor of non-intervention in most matters on the part of government. Its sphere is, and ought to be, as limited as possible. The exclusion of Negro labor certainly abstracts the mechanic’s chief chance to rise in wealth, which is by the purchase of Negroes and teaching them a trade. This is the means by which the vast majority of such as attain wealth have arrived at it. False ideas are entertained by many as to what ia ca'led a degrading association with Negroes. There is no degradation whatever, in doing the like labor with a slave, no more than there is degradation in eating because slaves eat, or in wearing clothes beoanse slaves wear (hem. True degradation would consist in selecting them as companions. No one considers his wife degraded by sitting at her sewing in the eame room with her Negro seamstresses. Many a farmer—and a wealthy one too —has his son spend a part of his vacations in the field, at work with his hands. Honest labor is incapable of degradation. We have reason to believe that higher orders of intelligences than our race do not spend their time in idleness and vacuity. Any legislative restriction cannot be bene ficial to white mechanics, without being nnjust as well to slave owners as to the consumers of manufactured articles. Indeed, it might be injurious neither to white mechanics nor to the consumer, and yet prejudicial to the slave owner. If the mechanical trades were not profitable, slaves would not be employed at them. There are checks against the excessive employment of slave labor to be found in the apprenticeship necessary to be served (daring a time of life, at which, the slave would be profitable) and in the inferior intelligence and aptness of the slave. These checks have been furnished by nature. If legislation interferes, and the prinoipie of interference is once established, we see no necessary limit in the princ ; p’e, short of banishing slave labor alto gether. If there be degradation in wielding a hammer, because slaves wield hammers, we cannot see why there should be such a diffe. rence between a hammer and an axe, or a hoe, as to do away with the degradation. The truth is, that if the laboring in a like way be a degradation, then the fact that the white man labors at all as well as the Negro, is degrading to the former. There is no limit except the entire abolition of the one or the other. Ne gro labor would, therefore, have to be abolish ed entirely, byway of dignifying white labor, or the latter be done away with, to avoid the contamination of slave labor. The principle is wrong, and the degrada tion exists only in the ease (we have already stated, of the choice of negroes as companions. As to the danger of insurrections, one of the arguments against allowing negroes to learn trades, tha is a danger Bhared by all classes, and whieh will, when it becomes at all consid erable, attract general attention, and give rise to the application of some preventive. There is no peculiar cause for alarm on this subject at the present time, so far as we are informed. On tha whole, we should regard any legis lation restrictive of the rights of slaveholders, unnecessary to others, and injurious to them. It could not benefit Mechanics unless by in juring others; and we do not believe that it would benefit (Asm. We believe it would bs an unwise and untimely movement of govern ment. We say this, not with the smallest feel ing against mechanics. We believe we are advocating their true interest. No movement on their part is necessary to make ns believe labor as respectable, and honorable as it ia useful. The plan of associating themselves in clubs or societies might prove a useful aux iliary in the facilities it will afford for the ex change of information. We have simply de signed a discussion cf the effects of legislation, not upon the interests of mechanics only, but upon those cf all classes intere:ted The question of policy has been briefly discussed, without any imputation upon (he motive of those who advocate a change and restriction of our present policy. p Congressional Election.

I Air election took place throughout South Carolina on Monday and Tuesday, for dele gates to a “ Southern Congress”—itshould be called a Sooth Carolina Congress, as no other State has thought of sending a representation, or at least made any move toward it. In Charleston the largest vote ever given in the city was polled, and it is conceded on ail hands that the Secessionists are beaten horse, foot and draggoons The S.andard claims a thousand majority for the Co operation party. The Mercury thus chronicles the result: “Thb Election. — Wc publish below each of the returns of the election as have reached us. It will be perceived by the table of the city election that the vote is the largest ever polled. The result, although not officially known, is sufficiently well ascertained The Co-operationiste havegiven to their ticketalaree majority, and though it will be diminished by the j Parishes, it cannot ba overcome. This result causes us no surprise, and it will causo none in the Plate at ] large. The indications were too dietinc*, that the controlling interests cf trade had thrown Peir de cisive power against the separate action of the State, to allow any experienced politician much room to hope that, for the present, Charleston could be brought to sustain that measure. We profoundly regret this result, because we are convinced that with the State, united the act of secession would be as simple and peaceful a measure in execution ns any ordinary measure of legirlaticn 5 and wo arc equally convinced that South Carolin.i, ns an Inde pendent Stare would have a prosperity far Ic-yond any thitig sha has heretofnre enjoyed, and a respec tability that no Elaveholding State can ever again enjoy in the Union.” We have little doubt that the co operation party have carried the State by a decided ma jority; if so, it puts a quietus to Secession till the malcontents of that State shall trump up some other imaginary cause for the exercise of this sovereign panacea. A few days will give cs the complete re turn a. Telfair gives Cobb a majority of 70. Two counties remain to be heard from, Irwin and Clinch As far as beard from 97 Union men and 21 Secessionists have been elected to the House ; leaving 11 members to hear from, of which 7 will undoubtedly bo Union.

S. Navy. He died at his residence in this city, yesterday morning, between 5 and 6 o’clock, in the G9tli year of his age, after an illness of severe suffering. Com. Warrington was a native of Virginia. He was born in November, 1782, and, after passing bis academic course at William and Mary College, entered the Navy in January, 1800 ; so that he bad served nearly fifty-two years. His professional services and brilliant achievements are interwoven with the history of his country, and are conspicuous in some of its brightest pages. He war almost the only one left of that noble roll of brave naval commanders who, in the war of 1812, achiev ed so much glory for their country by their brilliant victories against an enemy till then deemed invincible. To high professional merit Com. VV. added an amiable disposition and a modesty which won great personal esteem, and will make his loss sincerely regretted by the society in which he moved —Nat.

Railroad Dust. —The Hartford Times says that a car has been invented, aGd is now running on the Vermont Central Railroad, that is impervious to dust. We hope the invention will be generally adopted. The dust and cin ders are the great inconvenience in railroad travelling. By covering the track with gravel or with oyster shells the dust is prevented. New York, Oct. 12.—The steamship Wash ington, Capt. Floyd, which sailed from New York on the 4 h inst. for Southampton and j Bremen, wuh 32 passengers, broke her cross tail link on the 7th and was fort ed to retnrn, j arriving here to day. At the time of the acci- she was going at her usual speed and < steam, with fine weather. The accident can not bo accounted for. A Steam Fleet. —On Saturday a fleet of seven first-class steamships sailed from New York, viz : the United States mail steamer ‘Baltic,” for Liverpool; the British Iron steam er ‘ Glasgow,’for Glasgow ; the United States mail steamer ‘ Empire City,’ for Havana ; tho ‘Florida,’ for Savannah ; and the * Roanoke’ and the * City of Richmond ’ for Richmond. Since Tuesday last the following steamor3 have sailod from New York, in addition to those which ieft on Saturday, making twelve in all:— ‘ Africa for Liverpool; ‘Merlin,’ for Bermuda: ‘Prometheus,’ for San Juan de Nicaragua ; “ Cherokee, ” for Chagres ; ' Winfield Scott,’ for New Orleans; and ‘ Southerner,’for Charleston. The departure of sa large a number of ccGaa steamers in so short a space of time, goes to show conclu* sively the rapidity with which this mode of conveyance is superse ing the sailing craft, t’he time seems to be not far distant when steam will be the only iro e ofpropn'siouused, except in very long voyages. Worth Knowing —A youung lady of this city , whilo in the country some years ago, stepped on a rusty nail, which ran through her shoe and foot The inflammation and pain were of course very great, and lockjaw was appre hended. A friend of the family, however, recommended the application of a beet taken frtsh from the garden, and pounded fine, to ti e wound. It was done and the effect was very beneficial- Soon the ir flAnimation began to subside, and by keeping on the crushed beet, changing it fora fresh one as is virtue seamed to become impaired, asps dv cure was effected.

Strange Development of Incendiarism A correspondent of the B< ston Traveller writes from South Berwick (Me.) on the S:h that Benjamin Shillings, a trader of that place of wealth and standing, had been arraigned and bound over in $4,000 bonds for hiring J. S. Wilkinson and J. C. Pray to turn the Metho dirt church in that place, and also for aiding in burning a barn,dwelling hansa, powder house, academy, and blowing up the Baptist meeting bouse, all in South Bewrick, a few months since. Wilkinson, mentioned above, is the informer upon whose evidence ho s charged. The in ducements for committing these ac t are said to have connexion with the sale of Pray has aim boen held in bonds of SI,OOO, and Andrew Joy, who confessed to settiug fire to the house of Judge Hayes at the instigation of Shillings, was also held at S7OO. All the ac complices happened to be drunk at the time of committing tno crimes. Tha development caused great excitement in the neighoorbood, and it is said further, that two of the incendia ries have been arrested in Dover, (N. II.) Th« Trad* of the Pacific.— The pro gress of even s is rapidly bringing on the pe riod when from our position on the shores of the Pacific we shall confront the nations of the East, with their innumerable populations, and hold towards them similar relations to those with which we are now connected with Eu rope. The Indies, China, Japan, must soon become as familiar to our commerce as England, France and Germany are now. The American people are not regarded usu ally as being too diffident: the burden of j charges against ns rests the other way. Yet it is not to be denied that up to this moment we have not risen to the full measure of that ap preciation of ourselves, of our position and of its responsibilities, that i 3 justly applicable and which we cannot disparage or depreciate with out an abandonment of duty. Such a naton as this Republic is, cannot live in the family of nations without taking her part in the affairs of the world—a part, too, commensurate with her dignity, her power, her destiny. We must rule whether we will or no—or else ab negate our rights and confess ourselves craven. As the national representative, the only rep resentative we may say, of free institutions, and of the capacity of man to be great without the need of the decorations of orders and titles bestowed by one man upon men, or de creed by acts of Parliament or hereditary transmission, we camot shrink from the obli gations which our attitnde involves. Wo stand as a living rebuke to monarchical and aristo cratical systems, as those systems exist else where, and we cannot help it, if we aro to stand at all. . It is not that we are to be aggressive. Com merce and the Arts are oar hand-niaidens; and over them we are to hold the invincible shield, and, if need be, the fiery sword of re publican valor. It ia simply for us to hold our own; to vindicate the reality of our position, and to make the force of our existence felt wheresoever the influence of its sphere shall extend. Knowing no masters, the recognition of our supremacy will cotue as a matur of coarse ; it will pass into the world's conscious ness like a law of nature and be as little dis puted. We began to tpeak of the commerce ol the Paeifio, and il waa our purpose to allude, in I that oonneetion, to the projected line of rail* I way intended to unite the Valley of the Mis. . sissippi with the ports of the Western Ocean, i Now whether this great work is to be accom [ plished note, by the aid of the Government di t rectly applied to it, or whether it is to be left to move along as population advances westward by, and to make progress by sections, from . time to time, the conclusion is certain and must > be apparent to every mind, that the road is to be made. To what better purpose the public lands could be appropriated than to the con i struction of this work, according to Mr. Ban ton’s plan, which we must thiuk the most ra t tional and statesmanlike of any yet proposed —to what better purpose than this the public domain could bo appropriated we are at a loss to conjecture.

But nothing can obviate tbe necessity of an overland line across tha body ol this continent, in accordance with the cur rents of trade running between the commer cial capitals of ihe world. We must have this connection if we would hold control over the trade of Asia and of Europe, keep it within our limits aud de*iva the profits of it.
