AUGUSTA. GA:
Wednesday Evening, June «, ISSH.
Revival of tlie Afrlean Slave Trnde—
No. 6.
Loss of Political Power—The Remedy.
[concluded.]
We point to the remedy. Breakdown
the barriers which have been set up to
stein the current of slave importation.
Let the waves of that stream roll in to
repel those of free labor. Hhey will
carry slavery back to the fields from
whence it has been driven. The plan
ters of the more Southern States will
prefer to buy the imported negroes,
because capital always seeks the cheap
est labor that will suit its purposes.
They will refuse to purchase their
slaves in the markets of those States
which ore now deporting slaves. Thus
the Virginia and the Missouri planter,
instead of selling their negroes, as now
to employ white labor, will find their
profit in keeping the negroes whom
they already have and in investing the
profits upon their labor in other ne
groes. Then the capital, which now is
working against slavery in the border
slave States, will come to our aid against
the insidious advance of free society.—
It will stretch forth its hands from all
quarters for a supply of slaves. See
ing, in advance, the prospect of shar
ing in the profits of slave labor, it will
stay its present onslaught upon the in
terests that are about to become its own.
Just, as it now contends for free soil, it
will then contend for slave soil. Slave
ry will reverse the order of its march
It will move Northward, when it now
moves Southward ; expanding, instead
of contracting its area. It will wash
away all “emancipation laws," natural,
as well as human. The white laborer
will become, through the action of his
intellect, the slave’s master. Then, as
Burning his true position as a superior
being, he will become the friend of that
institution upon which he now wars.
The influx of slaves will lessen the
volume of that stream which now pours
in only white men. Exactly, in propor
tion, as more slaves come into the conn
try, then will come fewer white men.-
This will result from two causes: First
as the development of American resour
ces, to meet the wants of the world
will be accomplished by the Africans
there will be, proportionally, less in
ducement for European laborers to seel
this Continent, Second, the product
of slave labor being increased, tin
white laborer, in Europe, will havt
more to do at home- in manufacturing
those products. But he will not lie re
alizing the profit upon the development
of American resources. That profit wil
belong to the white man already here,
who will thus preserve to hi in self am
to his children that which he is non
about to divide with the European im
migrant.
To slavery, this importation will give
an increased political power. As tin
foreign and Northern immigrants are
now a lever to convert the* present
white population of the slave States,
into enemies of the institution, so
the imported negroes will be a level
to render them friends. Every five ne
negroes imported, or retained in tin
now emancipating States, Virginia,
Maryland and others, will add tires to
the representative basis of those States,
and those three will be friends, not en
emies to slavery. Thus the number of
members in the lower House, who now
oppose slavery, will begin to decrease
and go on decreasing, in proportion ;
while the number of members w ho sup
port slavery, will increase in proportion.
Every one pro-slavery member, gained
by the South, will be a difference of two
in her favor. The ditference between
one gained and one lost is tu-o. Thus
slavery will secure the lower House, no
matter whether the negroes imported
remain in the present States, or whether
they go to populate new States. This
remedies an evil and averts a danger.
But new States would be formed.—
Capital would take thither slave labor.
If the importation of slaves should be
only as rapid as the immigration of
whites, no more free States could be
formed than slave States. This would
prevent the Senate from passing to the
side of free labor. And when the im
portation of Africans had become so
large as to cause the development of re
sources to keep pace with the wants of
the world, then white immigration
would cease. White men would never
come to this country in numbers, but
ns they brought capital. If those come,
they would employ slave labor. Then
all new States would be slave States,
and all new Senators would be pro
slavery men. This would, indeed,
lie a remedy for present and coming
evils.
With a pro slavery majority, what
man, save a friend to the institution,
could be elected to the Presidential
office ?
We repeat that capital will forsee its
connection with slavery as soon as the
Trade shall be revived. We should
not, therefore, wait for a complete re
volution of existing relations before the
South would receive a political benefit.
With the first cargo of negroes landed
we should feel the im
pulse. Gathering strength, while our
enemies will lose, no power on eartli
could reinstate the obstructing law;
once removed, the Government will be
in our hands.
We have pointed to the evil. We
point to the remedy. Let those who
object, point to a better remedy or ad
mit that our plan is indispensable to
the continued safety and prosperity of
the South.
Tlie Bon Ton.
This is a monthly published in New
York bv S. T. Taylor. It should be in the
hands of every lady who prides herself
in cutting, fitting and making her own
dresses after the latest Parisian Fashions.
Each number is accompanied with four
well executed colored engravings, and
each engraving with a pattern to cut by,
with drawings and descriptions t>i the
different garments,so that any young la
dy of ordinary talent can easily compre
hend them, and at the trilling sum of
$5 per annum, deck herself out in the
newest fashions and save heavy milliner
bills. The June number is on our ta
ble.
PivUikht .Violimu,
“ Pink,” the New York correspond
ent of the Charleston Courier, writes :
“ The remains of Ex-President Monbok,
which have remained unmarked in this
city so long, are to be removed tp Vir.
ginia in a manner worthy so illustrious
a person. Samuel L. Gouvebneur, Jr.,
grand-son and nearest lineal descend
ant, has suggested to the Mayor that
the proposed removal of the remains of
the illustrious dead from this city should
take place on the coming anniversary of
his death. The Councilmen have ap
pointed a committee to act with a simi
lar committee of the Aldermen, to
make the proper arrangements. July
4th will probably be fixed for the re
moval, as all the militia parade on that
lay in any event, and hence the day
md the dead can be honored alike at
the same time.”
——
Working In Earnest.
The House of Representatives in Con
gress, passedon Friday last, eighty five
bills. They tflso took up the private
calendar and went through it. The
Army, Navy and Appropriation Bills
were passed. They evidently intend to
adjourn on the day fixed.
Interesting Meeting.
For more than a month (says the
Federal Union) prayer meetings have
been held daily, and sometimes twice a
lay, in some of the churches in this
city. These meetings have been well
ittended ; and although very few addi
dons as yet, to the church, have been
nude, the impress left ou this commn
tity will be felt hereafter. Union prayer
ueetings are now daily held—two days
it the respective churches; and on
Wednesday last the day was devoted to
listing and prayer by the entire reli
gious community.

The Destructive Freshets.
The Cincinnati papers estimate that
5100,000 damage lias been done to
himilton county property by the fresh
it in that vicinity. At Wheeling on
Thursday, there were over twenty feel
if wafer in the river. The Market-st
uispension bridge was threatened with
lestruction and had to be propped up.
it Pittsburg there had been a great rise
n both the Ohio and Alleghany livers,
md much damage done. At the latest
iccounts, however, the water was fall
ing in the Ohio.
Serious Apprehensions of Wab. —lt
is said, at Washington, that Lord Na
mes has given it as his opinion that the
Derby Ministry will take its stand up
on the “right of visitation,” as abso
lutely essential to the suppression of
the slave trade— a work to which both
governments are solemnly pledged.—
If so, the President has declared his pur
pose to give orders to seize and bring
into port all British armed vessels, al
-to carry out such mistaken
notions. So, should these statements
be true, and the British government
does not recede, a collision can scarcely
lie avoided.

The Cotton Crop In Texas.
The receipts of Cotton at Galveston
this season np to the 22nd ult., the Civ
ilian says, sum up 104,071 bales. The
Civilian adds, that there are 3,000 bales
at Houston. The Galveston News of the
20th ult., says :
A private letter dated May lltli,
from San Augustine, to a commission
house in this city, says, one of the lar
gest freshets we’have had during this
unprecedentedjwet spring, is now upon
us. Our bottom lands are completely
submerged, and the damage resulting
therefrom to this county will beincaicu
lably great. A letter from Swat-tout, of
the lith instant, to the same house,
states that the cotton crop has been
nearly ruined by the rains, which fell
almost uninterruptedly for 96 liours.-
Some farms on the creek and river bot
toms are completely under water.
We have information from Wharton
and other counties, to the effect that
the cotton crop has been much damaged
by tlie superabundance of rain that has
fallen during the last ten days. Corn
and cane, however, have sustained lit
tle or no injury.
Tim c eason.— After a drouth of sever
al weeks duration, (says the Edgefield
Advertiser, )our Districthas been refreshed
with acceptable showers, particularly
acceptable to spring oats, which may
now grow up to a respectable yield.
High Price.
A hogshead of tobacco, raised by
Capt. Wm. E. Clabk, Pittsylvania coun
ty, Va., was sold Thursday, at the To
bacco Exchange, by a commission mer
chant for $22 per hundred.
Mr. Ericsson lias written a letter, in

Cartersvllle,
Located on tbe Western & Atlantic
Railroad, in Cass county, has grown,
tsays the Cassvilie Standard,) in the last
live years, to considerable commercial
importance. It is thought to have “a
lager trade and ships more produce than
any point between Atlanta and Chatta
| nooga, and can boast of having as good
and valuable business men, as any
place. It is surrounded with good
land, the town handsomely located, has
a Presbyterian, Methodist and Baptist
church, four schools, a good newspaper
—'the “ Express ” —and is the point
where the Etowah Branch Railroad, to
Maj. Cooper’s Iron Works, (five miles
in length,)—now nearly completed, con
nects with the Western & Atlantic Rail
road. The land is as valuable as in any
other portion of the State-bottoms
selling as high as from sdo to .SSO pci
acre.
Voting Cotton.
The Edgefield Advertiser, of the 2d
inst., says: “Before us is a specimen of
the young cotton plant of 1858, con
sisting of a half dozen plants grown in
the fields of Mr. Wilson Abney of this
District. These plants are some eight
inches in height; and one of them
holds six forms, not, however, fully de
veloped. They were taken from the
field the 2Gth day of May. This is far
over the general average of cotton
growth in Edgefield. For the most
part the crop is backward, and in seve
ral neighborhoods the stand is very de
ficient.”
Another Payment from flic State
Road.
The Treasurer of the Western 8,- At
lantic Railroad, we understand, made
another payment to the State Treasury,
on Friday last of $25,000. This makes
$07,000 paid into the Treasury within
the last three months as net earnings
of the Road for that time.

sail direct for the Gulf of Mexico. The
Waliash is pierced for about sixty guns,
but now only carries forty. She has
her officers all on board.
The steamer Arctic sailed last even

Audacious KuHiniis—Gagging a Vloil
with a Bowie Knife'.
The wholesale grocery establishment
of Mr. J. T. Brown, at Muscadine. lowa,
was entered by burglars on the night of
the 18th tilt , who. after gagging the
proprietor and leaving him as they sup
posed dead, proceeded to plunder it,
and then fired it, the flames consuming
the store and several adjacent buildings.
Mr. Brown, however, was fortunately
rescued by a daring fireman, who had
stumbled on his body, and upon return
ing to consciousness said he went home
about half-past ten o’clock, and was
surprised to find his dog at the house,
which lie had locked up in the store.—
He proceeded at ouee to take the dog
back, and when he reached the store,
unlocked the front door and proceeded
up the back part of the building, when
he suddenly stumbled against some ob
ject or was tripped up, at the same time
receiving a severe blow on the head, lie
then knew he was in the hands of two
desperadoes, and lie fought them brave
ly. They succeeded however in throw
ing him down, gagging him and tying
his feet together. He struggled and
released his feet, pulling off one of his
hoots in his efforts, and also removed
the gag from Iris month, but the ruffians
again assailed him, and one of them
shoved a handkerchief down his throat
with a bowie knife, cutting his mouth
severely in the act. Here their victim
lost all consciousness, and remembers
nothing until after his rescue.

Tin- Weather, Crops, etc.
The crops, we learn, look tolerably
well in most places in this State, except
the wheat, which is slightly injured by
the rust and fly.
We talked with a gentleman just
from Arkansas, the other day, and he
said the crops all look promising in that
State—never more so. We also con
versed with a gentleman, recently from
Alabama, and he informed us that the
rust is damaging the oats there, and
that the fly and rust together were
working destruction among the wheat
