(fating Jlisjjittd). AUGUSTA, GA: Tliui-iuiay Evening, June 10, 1858. Herlvkl of the African Slave Trade- No. 7. Slavery Essential to the Permanence of Re publicanism. It has been often asserted that the government of no country can long re main republican without the aid of slavery. The proof has not often been adduced. We remark, that the proposition must lie restiicted to the slavery of an infe rior, to a superior race. And the in ferior race must be of such people as are by nature submissive, patient of re straint, preferring enslavement to ex tinction. It hardly needs a demonstra tion, that any race possessing these qnal- 1 ities will be incapable of self-govern ment, and, therefore, incapable by themselves, of generating or perpetua ting Republicanism. Republicanism implies self-govern- 1 ment and negatives all other kinds of government. That race only are capa ble of governing themselves, who are en- 1 dowed by nature with an instinctive idea. 1 that they have a right to the control of their own actions. Such a race are the Caucassians, and in no branch of this race, has this idea reached a more perfect development than in the Anglo- Saxon. Yet every individual of the : race, from the early republicans ol Greece, through the Romans, through France, through Spain, through Eng ' land and Ireland, down to the freemen ' of American Republics at this day— i every one has been, more or less, pene trated with the belief that he was born 1 with a complete right to share equally | with his fellows in the establishment and ordering of the government to ! which he gives his allegiance. i The careful student of history cannot ' fail to observe that, at all times, this i idea has impelled its possessors towards ' the form of free government. It ever has either resulted, in the establishing I of such governments, or it has given I < rise to those struggles which have, from i time to time immemorial, convulsed i the notions of that race. But the stu- i dent will observe, that while this no- j i tion has, in many instances, generated j republican governments, more or less ■ approximating the ideal form, yet it j has, in no instance, succeeded in per petuating those governments for any very great length of time. Ho will then be driven to the conclusion that the condition of perpetuation has been wanting. He will see that, though a race may be blessed with the conditions necessary to the establishment of Re publicanism, yet, it by no means fol lows, that the same set of conditions will enable them to perpetuate that state of freedom. Let us make an application to our own government. The establishment of our Republicanism is no longer an experiment, but the problem of its preservation is still to be solved. And it behooves us to ascertain what there was wanting to the Constitution of the old Republics, which led to failure in their cases, in order that we may, if possible, supply in our own experiment that element, for the want of which oureud will be like theirs. Iu all the Republics of the past, there has been a certain coincidence of facts. Their duration has been inversely as the development of their resources at the time of their formation. If lands and the means of living were plenty, with but a small population, their time of duration was long. Individuals were : content to feed and clothe themselves, nor sought to interfere with each other. Plenty made them peaceable. Each approved that form of government in which he had an equal share—his aspi ration for self-government was grati tied. But, as population increased, thus nanowing the scope of individu- i al action, their Republicanism began i to lose its simplicity. Complication followed complication, until, at last, in the struggle for the possession ofj ] those resources which were insufficient 1i to satisfy the cravings of the whole j i body, Republicanism gave way. Those j 1 laws and that power, which had been I sufficient to control all, while all were! willing to do right, were unable to check the tyranny of one party over another. Might took the place of right, and became the arbiter of all disputes. Force, in the form of mob or army, organized a new government. One man, or a few' men, thought for this force furnishing the intellect to guide its action. This was oligarchy, or mon archy. Such, with variety of circumstances, | has been the history of every Republic! in the past. Look at French Republics, almost within our own time. Vast pop ulation, with scantiness of resource, has doomed them ere they were emerged from infancy. Republicanism has never' yet survived a large population with | small resource. Republicanism is two hundred years old in this country. The idea of con trolling his own actions has been the prominent feature of American mind from the earliest colonial times. But it needs no close scrutiny to perceive that, in the more densely populated portions of this Union, the idea is losing j its force, and that Republicanism is fast | passing to anarchy, whence it is but a step to monarchy. This is betokened in a waning love of order, in a growing disregard of law, in an increasing con tempt for constitutional obligations, in the spread of fanaticisms, in the strife for power, iu the corrupt practices of officers, and lastly, and most fearful, in the growing disposition in the North ern masses to seize upon the resources of the country and to drive out that species of labor which they imagine to be their natural enemy. And now, let it be noticed, that while this state of things has been coming on, the resour ces of the North have been fast reach ing development. Already the North ern people feel, or think they feel, that they have not enough of natural re source, and hence they are seeking to contract slavery and crush it out, and occupy its ground. Now, without no helping hand, is it not plain that they must lose their Re publicanism ? That the weaker must succumb to the stronger? That there must and will be slavery at the North? That if the stronger party can not have negroes they will enslave those of their own race ? But, is it not equally plain that this will not happen a6 long as there shall be undeveloped resources ? They will first seize upon the South. It is what they are now doing. The South must yield to, unless she find means to avert the coming storm. Slavery is that means. Let all white men make slaves of negroes, that they may not, in the overthrow of their Republicanism, make slaves of each other 1 Then re-open the African Slave Trade. In proportion as the importation of ne groes increases, the immigration of whites will decrease. When the first shall cease because there are enough in the country, the last will cease because there will be no incentive to their com ing. But the slave, all he has and is, will he the property of his master.— The master will be rich and satisfied because the resources which the negro develops will become the wealth of the master, who will thus have no induce ment to engage in a strife for scanty re source. The negro will have taken and preserved, for his master, a large share j of natural wealth. It is to be observed that by nature j the white man docs not seek war or strife. He engages therm only when goaded on by real or fancied want. - Then be feels that iu civil commotion he has nothing to lose and may gain something. Like the desperate follow ers of Cataline, revolution has no ter rors for him because it can take nothing from him. It is the destitution of Par isian mobs that begets I’arisian revolu tions. But give white meu property, or op portunity to acquire it, and you make them the lovers of order, the haters of strifo, the supporters of a government which is of their own making. Give to all the citizens of this nation the re ; sources of the land; then give them negroes who will, at once, convert those 1 resources into wealth, aud prevent the 1 intrusion of other whites from foreign lands, aud you give them property, car rying with it all its influences. Each will insist upon a participation in the common councils of the nation ; and lie will participate, because the protec tion which each asks for bis own pro perty, he will grant to his neighbor.— Thus will the Republicanism, originated by the white man, be preserved by the negro. It will be strong iu itself, be cause united in its parts, and therefore able to repel all external attacks. But we cannot keep out white men unless we bring in negroes. We cannot enjoy the protection of slavery unless 1 we have euough of slaves to develope the country as fast as called for. The element of slavery cannot do its work of salvation unless it enter, in a suffi ciently large proportion, into the Con stitution of society. Republicanism cannot be preserved without slavery. Slavery cannot be preserved without importation of more negroes. How infinitely, then, does the question, which we are considering, transcend in all other questions of hu ! man concern 1 j Southern people! Each day takes from your own power to do this thing. Each day adds to the strength of your foes. Oh 1 that a Patrick Henry could urge upon you the necessity for action before “your enemies shall have bound you hand and foot.” * Removal, We learn from the Cartersville Ez- I press, of the 9th inst that a vote for re | moval of the Court House was taken in that county on Wednesday last— and that the result was for removal 5, and against removal 295. The editor sup poses this about one seventh of the vote of the county, and does not appear to relish the result. SiT The Cleveland Plaindealer says that Mrs. Cunningham Burdell has purchased a farm in Carroll county, Ohio, about four miles from Carrollton, andj about seventy miles from that i city. She bought the farm from the heirs of the late Dr. Samuel Sears, pay mg so,ooo down for it, and wo under- i Stand thilt she wi| l ‘Hhe immediate pos session. F THELATESTNEWS.

Mr. Hunter, from the Finance Com mittee, reported a bill making appro priation,for conveying the transatlantic mails. He also introduced a resolution relating to the expenses of the next fis cal year, the purport being that the ex ecutive shall instruct the heads of the various departments to confine their estimate within the limits of $04,000,- 000. Bills were passed granting pensions to the widows of Gen. Jones and Gen. Gaines. Considerable discusion follwed a proposal of Mr. Slidell, to limit the pensions to widowhood, which was not 3 agreed to. 5 Mr. Toombs bitterly opposed the . granting of pensions. Messrs. Houston, Davis, 'and others, ’ paid a warm tribute to the memory of | General Gaines, and charged the Senate ; with a want of gallantry. [Mrs. Gaines was in the gallery and was doubtless ; edified by the debate.] HOUSE. , Mr. Savage said, as the friend of Mr. Huges, in the difficulty between him • and Mr. Harris, of Illinois, growing out s of language used durinf a debate on the , Miunesota election case, he had met Win. H. Polk, the friend of Mr. Harris of Illinois, and they had come to tne i opinion that no hostile meeting was ne- I cessary, and he stated that the matter had been settled on terms honorable to both gentlemen. The Hosuse passed a bill providing i for the keeping and distributing of all public documents through the Secretary of the Interior. On motion of Mr. Glancey Jones, the House went into a committee of the i whole on the Senate’s sixty-fouramend ments to the miscellaneous appropria tion bill. Tile Weather and Crop*. For the last two weeks we have been abundantly blest with rain and warm genial sunshine—just what our farmers want at this season of the year. Corn is in a fine growing condition, and must yield abundantly if the seasons continue favorable. Cotton, though small, and in some places a bad stand, is fully fif teen days earlier than this time last j year. Wheat is ripening fast, and we | see harvesting has commenced on early I wheat. Our fears of rust and the fly vanishes daily, and if we are not greatly mistaken, there will be as much wheat made in this county as there was last year ; not that the wheat is so generally promising, but in consequence of the quantity sown. Oats are doing as well as could be wished, and withanother rain or so, must be very abundant.— Caetoille Standard, lOlh imt. Who Nominated Washington. A writer in the National Intelligencer says that Washington Irving, in the life of Washington, page 453, vol. 1, claims for Johnson, a delegate from Maryland in the Continental Congress, the honor of having nominated Washington for the position of Commander-in Chief.— The election was by ballot and was un animous: Bancroft, in liis last volume, page 393, says : “Thomas, of Maryland, nomi nated George Washington, and, as he had been brought forward at the par ticular request of the people of New England, he was elected by ballot un animously." We happen to be cognizant of a cor respondence between George Bancroft, Esq., and Mr. D K. Tefft upon this sub- J ec s: which originated in the application of Mr. Bancroft to Mr. Tefft for infor mation concerning the Johnson family, i which was in possession of our fellow townsman, Mr. Jno.
