(fuming Jlisjiatd). AUGUSTA. GA: Tuesday Evening, May 35, 1858. Revival of the African Slave Trade— •Vo. 5. Southward March of Free labor. The resources of the world have a limit in quantity. Those of Europe, at well as of the North-eastern States ol the Union, are now scanty in proper dor to the labor which they have to sustain Struggles for the possession of those re sources compel the exodus of the stir plus population in search of new sup i plies; or, to state the same fact in a different form, the resources of tht world are immoveable ; while the la- , bor which is intended to develope them, has the power of locomotion, ami is . gifted with intellect to direct the search and to find out those spots upon the face of the globe where the smallest t outlay of labor will yield the larges income of wealth. Those spots labot naturally seeks ; and, unless accidents causes intervene to lead that labor in a circuitous path, it will and does go di rectly to the richest spots. It was in accordance with the above principles that the tide of both free an< slave labor first set to this continent and that the stream still flows on, ex , eept when interrupted by the artificial destructions of men. To attempt to ■ dam up and entirely to stop this stream , would be to endeavor to nullify a law of God ; by which law He has said, that man shall live by the sweat of ; his brow, in converting the treasures ot c the earth into the means of his own sus- t tenance. , Numerous, but obvious causes, have r lead the stream of European labor to I land first on the Northern shores of this Union, for many past years; but i such was not the case wholly in the t early colonial times. At first the tide . of immigration poured more strongly I upon the shores of Virginia and of the t Carolines and into the more South ern regions than into the parts which lie North of the Chesapeake, 'ibis ■ thing, however, was shortly changed, i and completely changed, when the re striction upon the Slave Trade was in- i troduced. I Thereupon, the fact that capital can , more easily control slave than free la bor, which had previously acted to en courage the importation of slave rather than free labor, began to act in draw ing the slaves of the Northern States Southward. For obvious reasons, un necessary to enumerate, free labor chose not to come in contact with slave labor. The superior richness of the Southern resources made all labor more profitable in the South than in the North. Capi tal, as before stated, chose slave labor, which was thuß drawn from the North, as the foreign supply was cut off, and the vacuum, thus created at the North, necessarily attracted free labor from Europe, and then commenced far back in the past the scene which we now be hold, not commencing,but only passing under our eyes ; thq influx of free la bor to the North and the impulsion of slave labor towards the extreme South. Now, we know it is common to assert that free labor came to the North be cause the white man could not work in the South. This dogma is false in fact and pernicious in its tendency. lint not less false nor less pernicious, is its twin sister, that Slave labor tends Southward because it is not profitable in the North. We repeat, that both these notions are stamped with false hood by facts which stare us every day in the face, and they are hurtful in the extreme, because they have been made the basis of erroneous theories in regard to Slavery and the duties of its friends. White men can work and do work in the South, while negroes could work and would work, if they had masters, even in the forests of Maine, and in either case the result of labor is, or would be, wealth. Touching the emancipation laws of those now free States, which were orig inally Slave Stntes, there exists great error of opinion. Any notion that those laws grew out of a desire to give freedom to the slave,isprecluded bv the fact that none of them even contained any provisions to prevent his deporta tion to other non emancipating States. 'Two causes and two interests combined to produce those laws, namely : the in terest of the capitalist and the interest of the free-lalKirer. The capitalist pre ferred to sell his negro to a Southern planter and invest the proceeds in free labor, provided he could get for his ne gro more than would purchase the same amount of labor from the white hirling. He, therefore, first procured the restric tion of the foreign Slave Trade, which gave him a monopoly of the slave mar ket, and enabled him to get two prices from the Southern planter. Then, and not until then, was he willing toemanci pate, (what a misnomer!) Again, the white laborer desired, not to free the slave, for that would have left the ne gro on the soil, a competitor with him self for service to capital, while it would have also lessened the capital that was to employ himself : but he desi red to drive the negro from the soil, which would leave him a clear field for employment, while, if the negro were sold, instead of being liberated, the amount of capital which should bid for his own labor would not be diminished. The free laborer, therefore, concurred with the capitalist in procuring the res triction upon the foreign Slave Trade, because it would lead to the removal of the negro, while it would increase the amount of capital, intending to employ himself by enabling the slave-owner to sell his negro for an enhanced price.— In this view we find at once the origin il reason for the restriction upon the •Have Trade, ancT*for the fact that none >f the “emancipation laws" ever provi led against the deportation of the slaves whose position, not status, they were in tended to effect. Now we know, and will not deny, that many other motives and policies led various parties to the enactment of the >rovisionßagainst the Slave Trade. We cuow that the shipping interests of the North opposed the restriction, feebly. •Vc. know that the red-republican doc trines of Jefferson led Virginia to con ent to a course to which she never ;ould have yielded, but for blindness, tut still we say that the great moving >rineiple, showing itself in different phases, which led both to emancipation aws and to the suppression of the for :ign Slave Trade, was what we have sta nd it to have been. And we ki.ow an >ther thing ; that the same principle is toting to-day with increasing force to Irive the institution of negro slavery towards the South. The capital of Del tware, combined with the interest of ree labor,has already within a few years Iriven slavery from her borders. With rapid strides—frightful in their rapidi ty to him who will consent to look— the tide of free labor is rolling over Maryland, Virginia, Kentucky, Missou ri, Texas, and is already in possession of Kansas. This is but the effect of the natural law, to which we alluded in the outset, that labor will seek and reach those spots where the largest return will fol low the smallest outlay of labor ; when that law is combined with this artifice >f man which has kept out the negro, md held in reserve the southern re sources, for development at the hand of the white man. Without emancipation laws the effect would have been the same. They were but the expedients of the free laborer to hasten the removal of the negro.— The capitalist would never have con sented to them but for the fact that they were accompanied by the restrict tion upon slave importation. This is shown in the fact that such laws are never passed in any State until through the operation of the restrictive law. Slave labor has been considerably with drawn, and free labor has acquired or is about to acquire, sufficient power to enact them. Now what is the conclusion from these views? Plainly that the choice is not before people of the South, wheth er they will have an addition of labor or not. They will be compelled to see the resources of their country developed by the one species of labor, or the other. Mr. Sf.waud sees this, and never man spoke more truth, than when he said that free labor was on the march South ward to seise upon the country. Then, southern men, we say you cannot choose to refuse admittance to labor ! You can only choose whether you will have African labor or fiee labor. You can ouly choose whether you will submit your inheritance to the same Vandal ism that overrun Italy, or whether you will put your shoulders to the wheel, give capital in those States now trem bling before the assaults of free labor, an inducement to fight with you against emancipation,and preserve the resources of the South to your children ! You must re-open the African Slave Trade and back up the waves of that mighty stream which is now rolling in upon you, toengulph your property and your republicanism in a common vortex ! Or, you must quail before the march of Seward and his minions. You will not take the latter ? Then you must take the former, and the sooner you rise to the work, the more easily you will win tbc battle. Do you see in Kansas histo ry only the play of politicians ? Do you see in the colonization schemes of Era Thayer only the doings of a crazed fanatic? We see in both, the onward march of free labor to drive Slavery from the fields of Virginia, then from the Carolinas, then from Georgia. Are you willing that this should happen? Then how do you propose to prevent it? Is there not in our scheme the only hope of salvation ? ». gif' From the report of the General Superintendent of Police in New York city it appears that at present the Metropolitan Police force consists of 16 captains, 7 acting captains, 65 sergeants 48 roundsmen, 51 doormen, 1,062 pa trolmen, 124 men detailed for special duty, makinga total of 1,186 men. .*>• JIT” The Cashier of the Shelby ville, Tenn., Bank, says that the report that the Bank had failed, is a base slander.

The Atlanta Intdligencer says that a seedy looking female was seen promen ading Mitchell street, on Sunday after noon last, with a bountiful supply of rocks in each hand. When he saw her, j she was muttering vengeance against an unfortunate individual on the opposite aide of the street, who seemed to be the : husband. He, it seemed, had been ab-l sent from home a little too long—his! iffectionate wife had hunted him up, md was driving him before her, until he got ashamed of traveling in that or-i ler, and had crossed over the street, j Both appeared to be sober, and the man; livin't break custody while we saw the party. * JA?" The correspondent of the Tribune says that 680,000 copies of speeches' made in the Senate by senators from! the free states, have been circulated throughout the country during the pres ent session. Os these, 198,000 were co pies of Douglas’ speeches ; 100,750 of Bright's ; 68,750 of Seward's ; 10,000 of Wilson’s. 6*7” The session of Congres, it is said j will be prolonged ten days. The Connecticut Legislative Commit tee on Contested Elections have under consideration the case of G. W. Sayles, member of the Legislature from Wind sor Locks, whose seat is contested be cause he “treated’’ with intoxicating! liquors on election day. If “treating” on election day disqual ified men for seats in all Legislatures, some of the States would have rather thin delegations.” “Kansas While.'’ This notorious individual, who figured in Georgia two years ago as a Kansas missionary, seems to have turned up again, in a shape not very flattering to his character, or gratifying to those who gave him such cordial aid and comfort while in this state. The fol lowing letter was written from Wayne county, Mississippi, and we publish it as one of the last scenes in the Kansas humbug : Winchester, Wayne Co., Miss, i Dear Sir:— Some time in June 1857, | there came to this place, and put up at our hotel, a man by the name of John W. White. Sometimes he left {the W. out of his name ; he was a large man ; weigned 238, with long black whiskers, a little grey ; well made. He was a; talented man, and a man of extraordi nary memory. A great Kansas man,! said ho had been 18 months in Kansas, he showed documents where he had col lected some $5,000 00 in Georgia and Carolina, in aid towards settling Kansas up a9 a slave State. He was an ambi tious speaker, and made some good speeches in this county, persuading the citizens to go immediately to Kan-j sas, with their slaves. When he first! came here, he pretended to be in search! of 9 negroes, which he claimed to have a mortgage on,and said his brother-in-law had slipped them off from your county. He had no money, and very few clothes —and they were worn out. He drank very hard and played cards ; was fond of raising fusses, and telling lies to get up fusses, but when the fighting part came he was’lit there. This man, though pointed out by myself, on first sight, to be a villain, managed to deceive tee most of our citizens here, in borrowing money, and after staying some two or three months with us, he left, going to i Mobile, Ala., saying he was going there to draw some money, and would be back in a few days to pay up, but that is the last we have of Col. John W. White. He is a fine looking man, but has a very bad eye; speaks fluently and strong, but is notan educated man by any means. You, sir, will confer a favor upon me, and some fifty very respectable citizens of this viciuty, by answering me. Slate if, and what you know, or ever knew of this personage, his former home, if any; his present abode, if’known, ■ amount of property, business, &e., &c., He stated tnat he had practiced law in your county, claimed to have a brother in-law there, and I think a mother and • some negro property. Please answer •|me as soon as possible. Your answer I will be kept, sir, confidential. Yours respectfully. George J. Incraham *. Another Raihouti Accident. Elmira, N.

One of those romantic and exciting occurrences that occasionally happen in | small places, as well as large ones, and which usually furnish an abundance of gossip for idlers, has recently come off at Harrisonville, Va. It is the history |of almost every elopement—the young I folks love each other, the lady’s parents object to her lover, and urge her to many another suitor whom she does not love. Mr. Joseph 11. Smith, who is a printer, with Miss Abbe Bezanson, j left on Monday evening, for some point j in an adjoining State, to be united in j tlie bonds of wedlock. But the best j part is still to come. The lady’s parents ! lived about eighteen miles from town, ! and Mr. S. in town. The gentleman j whom her parents wished her to marry was coming to town to court, and of fered to bring her along. She seemed to favor his suit on the morning in question, and when they arrived in j town, and he left her at her uncle’s, she told him to be sure and call for her the next day, hut the bird had flown.— Alas! alas! j A Wife Runs Away with an Appren tice to Her Husband. A scene of exciting interest was en | acted a day or two ago, in a private boarding house in the western part of I Cincinnati, which, at one time, threat ; cued todevelopo into a tragical decoue i ment, hut finally resulted in an amica ble adjustment. From the run of the story, it appears ! that a Mrs. Heniger, residing with her husband in some interior town in Illi nois, suddenly left home about two weeks ago, and with her disappeared an apprentice in the carpenter shop of her husband—a strapping specimen of a j Western boy, som; nineteen or twenty | years of age. The husband very natu | rally associated the two together, in | looking at the vacant seats at the break fast table, and while feelings of dire j revenge took possession of his bosom. | he took the cars, and traveled in various | directions in search of the runaways, j who, it seems, made hot haste for that city, thinking, no doubt, that they would be lost sigh! of in the aggrega | tiou of humanity that makes i.p the j town. And so they would have been, j but for the imprudence of the runaway j wife, who wrote a letter to her sister residing in the town from which she had eloped, and the postmaster exposed the whereabouts of the fugitives. The | husband came on in search of them and 1 with the aid of others employed for the j purpose, succeeded in tracing them to : the hoarding house alluded to, and sur ! prised them at the dinner table on Mon day. Os course, a scene took place, which ended by the husband and wife ! making up, and the apprentice being | turned away. THIRTY-FIFTH CONGRESS. j Washington, May 21, 1858. I SENATE.
