The resources of a country include, all those properties of her lands, waters, and climate, which may be made ser viceable in ministering to the wants of man. Left to themselves, they have no value. Value is alone the result of human labor, acting upon resources.— Labor is the only power by which re ,ources can be converted to wealth. The wealth of a nation, then, is the result of a combination of labor with resources. Either without the other,! does not constitute wealth. This is true both of nations and individuals.— As is the case in many countries of Eu rope, if there be a superabundance of labor, with no resources sufficient to engage it, all, .then will be national poverty. On the other hand, if a coun try finds itself abounding in those ob jects which call for development by the hand of man, still if the supply of la bor be inadequate to their full expan sion, the nation will be poor, compared; with what she might be, and poor in j comparison with other nations, who with fewer gifts of nature have more j working power. A nation, therefore, is rich in propor tion as she combines more labor with more resources. The true way to com pare the wealth of nations is to compare their products. The amount of produc tive labor is the exact measure of a na tion's wealth. Apply this reasoning to the South. It j were useless to paint minutely her' undeveloped resources. All know that she has millions of acres uncultivated, boundless treasures hidden in the mines, forests whose timber would make Eu rope rich for centuries to come, and a climate to produce what no other cli mate in the world can produce. She is not then as rich as she might be, be cause her products are not as great as they would be by a full development.— In other words the amount of her pro ductive labor is not as great as it could be. The maximum of her possible wealth is not reached, nor will it be reached, until her productive labor ! equals the productive capacity of her resources. The more rapidly then, she augments her force of labor, the more rapidly she will increase in wealth. Ad mit, then, for the argument, that the .South is now equal in wealth, with the balance of the world; the foregoing con siderations show us that she has the ca pacity to exceed the rest of the world, provided she can obtain the requisite in crease of labor. Where shall this labor come from ? There are two sourers from whence she can obtain an increased supply of labor. Either from Europe and the North ; thence she will get only free white labor ;—or from Africa, she can get black slave labor. We have several reasons for preferring that the supply should come from Africa, one of which we will here set forth. Every one admits that the augmenta tion of national wealth is, to the South, a desirable end, but the admission might be accompanied with the proviso that it should tend to the increase of her own wealth. It is natural for man to hope for his own advantage, in the gain of his nation. It is precisely for this end—the end of individual benefit, that we are striving. Perceiving that the success of our policy must result in increase of South ern wealth, each man asks what would be the effect on himself ? In what man ner would the additional wealth of the South be divided ? W T e answer, precise ly on the principle on which the exist ing wealth is divided. We contemplate no change in the laws that now regu late the division and tenure of proper ty. We wish no modifications of an important nature. The citizens of the South, compared with each other, would be no richer, nor any of them any poor er than they now are. There would still be rich and poor. The rich would still become poor by bad management, while the poor might become rich. But note this result! Each individu al would have a greater amount of the products of labor than he now has; he would be absolutely richer, betause he would have more to supply his wants— more of everything. A and B, in Au gusta, would not, it is true, grow richer or poorer in a comparison with*each other ; but, when composed with C and and I), in Boston, or Paris, A and B would both be richer. This result grows out of the_ fact, that while the wealth of the country would be enlarged, it would still be~di vided among no more individuals, than at present—no more whites—and, con* iequently, the share of each white would be greater. To use a simile : the rule of division would remain unchang ed ; but the dividend (wealth) being enlarged, while the divisor (whites! would be unaltered, the quotient would be proportionately larger. Suppose we conclude to draw our supply of labor from Europe, taking free white men. See the result! Just in the very proportion in which our pro ductive labor, and consequently wealth, j would be enlarged, in that very propor ! tion, the number of participants would ; be increased, and individual whites now : ! in the South, would reap no share of i benefit from the increase of nation |al wealth. To continue our simile: | the divisor (whites) having been in creased in the same ratio as the divi dend (wealth), the quotient would re main unchanged. Hence, we prefer ’ slave importation. Where now is the fallacy in this ar gument ? Let those who cavil and hes itate,point to the error. Is it not as plain as noonday, that increased labor would be increased wealth to the South? Is it not plain that individual wealth could only he produced by bringing that labor from Africa ? Is not the increase of in dividual wealth a desirable end to every man ? Then, in this view of the sub- j ject, is not a Revival of the African Slave Trade a desirable end? We will close this article with calling attention to an error often fallen into by those who reason and think of this matter. The error is, that they reason upon specific interests without having! before themselves any fixed points of | departure. Now the reasoning which! we have above given is general in its nature. If it be sound, then its conclu- j ! sions must harmonize with the conclu- j | sions to which one comes, when reason-1 ! ing upon a single interest, else these' last conclusions will be erroneous. If! it he not sound we shall feel obliged to I him who will point us to the error. ° | Edward Everett. To the brief, but very significant com mentary of the Charleston Courier on our allusion to its defence of Edward i Everett, we would simply observe that Mr. Everett came South with a repu- I tation as a statesman, and scholar, and orator, as wide as the country, and wider : he was invited South by gentle men of well-known position and loyal ity to Southern institutions. This, with the cordial reception everywhere extended him by our people of all par ties, and conditions, we regarded as uffi cient rebuke to the carping of a few sec tional fanatics, ever unable to see any good in the Eastern portion of the Re public. It was far from our purpose to question the gallant purpose of the , Courier in extending Mr. Everett the explanation; and we have no doubt it will be properly appreciated by him— but we insist, that it is according undue importance and respect to the co terie of agitators who have assailed him We cannot help regarding the ill-timed j and ill-tempered abuse of Mr. Everett ’ as most deplorable—and the people of the whole country are too familiar with his national sentiments, and the abuse ' he lias suffered from the Abolitionists, to pay any attention whatever to the abor tive effort to identify him with the . enemies of the South. Affray In Callioun. We learn through our faithful and ' esteemed correspondent, “ Buck Horn, : that a Mr. Stephen McGinnis was shot through the thigh, with r pistol, by a Mr. Young, of Calhoun, on Sunday. We have not room for the particulars, but it seems that Young refused to pay toll at McDill's bridge, and McGinnis, the present owner, shut the gate, when Young dismounted, shovedit open, and ' fired. McGinnis is doing well. The Wisconsin Board of Education 1 recently resolved “to erect a building > largo enough to accommodate five hun dred students, three stories high. Pretty tall students—there ought to be room enough to stow away consider ble “attic salt” in their upper story.

( Southern Commercial Convention. Montgomery, Ala., May 10. —The con vention was called to order by the Hon Wm. L. Yaney. ( Col. Allen F. Owen, of Georgia, was i selected as temporary Chairman, andJ. ‘ Edmund Burke, as Secretary. j The delegations were called by States, and delegates are in attendance froin.t Virginia, North and South Carolina, Mississippi, Alabama, Florida, Georgia Tennessee, and Louisiana. __ 1 The usual committees have been ap pointed, and the convention appears to , be desirous of going to work to promote j the objects of their convocation. SECOND DISPATCH. 1 The committee of on permanent or- [ ganization reported Col. A. P. Calhoun, 1 South Carolina, for President ; Hon. * Mark A. Cooper, of Georgia, for Vice C President ; and Mr. P. D. Page, of Ala bama, as Secretary, and the report was I adopted. ! A committee of three was appointed from the delegations of the several i States represented, for the purpose of 1 reporting business for the Conven ‘ tion. At the afternoon session, some discus sion took place in reference to the rules of business—and Mr. L. W. Spratt’s able , report on the policy of re opening the African slave trade was presented. The city appears crowded with dele gates and strangers, and yet every train of cars and steamboat arrival adds 1 largely to the number. W ashington Ntivs. Washington, May 10— .The five mil-1 lion dollars loan bids were opened to day. There were no bids from parties South of Washington, and the total amount offered was fifteen millions dol- 1 lars, and the premiums ranged from 1 three and a half to six per cent. In the Senate, the bill to repeal the fishing bounty was discussed— the other business transacted was not of general interest. In the House, several unimportant bills were passed. The State Department has asked from Congress an appropriation of ten thous and dollars to carry the Kansas hill into effect. The Senate bill directing the govern ment to pay certain sums of money to . owners, for slaves carried away by Brit t ish vessels during the war of 1812, was 1 .referred to the Committee of the whole. Later from tli ■ L tuh Army. St. Louis, May 10.—The Independence > mail has arrived from Camp Scott, ' which left on the 3rd of March. It was detained seventeen days by a snow storm. The health of the army was good, but tbeir were getting scarce. <> Col. Johnston was anxiously awaiting the arrival of Capt. Marcy. The express met Maj. Hoffman’s command one hundred and forty miles beyond Fort Kearney, with twelve hun dred troops—he arrived here in three days, and proceeded immediately to Fort Leavenworth. All the water courses on the route are veiy high, and the streams are overflow ing the plains. Colonel Smith leaves to day for Fort Leavenworth. Charleston Market. Charleston, May 11,1 P.M.—Cotton. Sales to-day 200 bales, in four paroles, at 11 3-4 to 13 cents. Market quiet and unchanged. Market Reports. Savannah, May, 10,—Sales of cotton to-day 204 bales. The market is dull and unsettled. Charleston, .May 10. —Sales of cot ton to day were 1,100 bales.at unchang ed prices. Mobile, May 10. —Sales of Cotton to day 1,000 bales. The market is un changed, but quiet. The receipts to day are 2,000 bales. New Orleans, May 10.—Sales of cot-j ton to day -3,500 bales, with a firm| market. Freights are better; and Ster ling Exchange 108 a 108 3-4.

Corn quiet, with sales of 8,000 bushels. Turpentine firm [at 49 a 50. Rosin heavy. Rice steady. t Later from Havana. The steamship Black Warrior, Capt. J, W. Smith, which left New York on the 27th ult., from this port, via Ha vana, reached the latter place on the 3d inst., left again the same day, ar rived in the river early yesterday morn ing, as we announced in our evening edition, and was at her dock early in the afternoon. Mr. Purser Hoffman furnishes us with notes of some of the principel items of intelligence from Havana. Rumors were current in Havana that Gen. Concha would soon be removed from the Captain Generalship of the Is land, unless the personal influence of of the Queen should prevail with the Ministry. Great excitement existed among mer chants and masters of vessels in conse quence of insults and detentions to which American vessels had been sub jected by cruisers, under the pretext of suspecting them ot being slavers. Some masters had expressed a determination to resist the attempt to stop and search j them ; and it is probable that there will be a collision under such circumstances, unless our government take measures to prevent tins British interference with our commerce.— N. O. Picayune. ..«*•- From Hansas. Topeka, Kansas, April 30. The Convention for the Nomination of State officers to serve under the Lea venworth Constitution met here on the 28th, and was in session two days. The attendance was large, and the-j Radical men in tne ascendency. The following is the ticket nomina ted : For Governor—Henry J. Adams, of j \ Leavenworth, (now Mayor.) Lieutenant Governor—Col. C. K. Hoi- j liday, of Topeka. For Congress—Judge Conway. Judges of the Supreme Court—Win.! A. Phillips, Lorenzo Bow, William McKay. Phillips was selected because a cor respondent of the Tribune ; he is ac quainted with everybody in the Terri tory, and Dow is expected to run well because many voters imagine him to be the veritable Lorenzo Dow, the husband of “Peggy.” The Chinese proverb says a lie has no legs and cannot stand, but it has wings, and can fly far and wide. —— Canton is such a maze of dirty, nar row streets, that the inhabitants are obliged to carry maps about with them, and the Chinese guides of the eastern part of the city know nothing of the western part. —— The Kansas land sales, by order of the President, have been postponed from July to October. The postponement j w'as asked by the people of Kansas. The Turkish Pasha ai.d suite left 1 Washington on Wednesday for New York. They took leave to the Presi-i dent and Secretary of the Navy.

MORSE’S INVIGORATING COR t DIAL. —The dyspeptic patient, whose stomach has lost the power of duly converting food into a life-sustaining clement, is relieved by a single course of this extraordinary tonic. The gastric l fluid re acquires its solvent power, and the crude 1 nutriment, which was a load and a burthen to t the sufferer, while his digestive organization was ! paralyzed and unstrung, becomes, under the ‘ wholesome revolution created in the system, the ’ basis of activity, strength and health. The nervous sufferer, while tormented by the ! acute, physical agony of Neuralgia, Tic-doloreux > i or ordinary headache, afflicted with vague tcr ■' rors, wakened by periodical fits, threatened with j paralysis, [borne down and dispirited by that terrible lassitude which proceeds from a lack of 1 nervous energy, or experiencing any other pain •j or disability arising from the unnatural condition i j of the wonderful machinery which connects ev ery member with the source of sensation, mo tion and thought—derives immediate benefit from the use of ibis Cordial, which atoncccalms, \ invigorates and regulates the shattered nervous I organization. Females who have tried it are unanimo s in , declaring the Elixir to be the greatest boon that . woman has ever received from the hards of medical men. ! Morse’s Invigorating Elixir has a direct, im ; mediate and astonishing effect upon the appetite. While it renews the .strength of the digestive powers it creates a desire for the solid material j | which is to be subjected to their action. As an j j appetiser it has no equal in the Phnrmacopia. I If long life and the vigor necessary to its en • joyment are desirable, this medicine is indeed of \ precious worth Its beneficial effects are not confined to cither j sex or to any age. The feeble girl, the ailing wife, the listless, enervated youth, the overworn man of business, the victim of nervous depres sion, the individual suffering from general de bility or from the weakness of a single organ will all find immediate and permanent reli«f from the use of this incomparable ren >valor. To those who have a predisposition to paralysis it will prove a complete and unfailing safe guard against that terrible m ilady. There are many perhaps who have so trifled with their constitu tion that they think themselves beyond the reach of medicine. Lot not even those despair. The Elixir deals with disease as it exists, without re ierence to the causes, and will not only remove j the di-order itself, but rebuild the broken con- j stitution LOSS OF MEMORY, confusion, giddiness, rush | of blood to the head, melancholy, mental debil- j ity. hysteria, wretchedness, thoughts ofself-de- j | s ruction, fear of insanity, hypochondriasis*, dys-1 pepsia, general prostration, irritability, nervous ness, inability to sleep, distaste incident to fe males, decay of the propagating functions, hys teria, monomania, vague terrors, palpitation of the heart, irnpotency, constipation, etc., from whatever can e arising, it is, if there is any reli ance to be placed on human testimony, absolute ly mraliibic.
