WAISifi SPRINGS.
THE State of Georgia, deservedly celehra-
ted for the fertility of its soil, the richness and
abundance of its mineral ores, us stupendous
cataracts, and beautiful mountain scenery; can
also boast the most valuable mineral fountains
on the face of the-Globe.
This is no vain boasting; a distinguished gentleman,one
.who has travelled extensively in foreign lands, assures us,
that, while in England and on the Continent, he visited the
most celebrated watering places, that he saw not one on
which Nature had been so prodigal of her gifts, as those
bestowed on the Warm Springs, in Meriwether County,
Georgia.
Tina truly wonderful natural curiosity, and delightful
Summer retreat is situated on a spur of the Pine Mountain,
thirty-six miles north of the city of Columbus. A fountain,
gushing forth per minute, fourteen hundred gallons of crys
tal water of 903 Temperature, is indeed a rare curiosity —
Its virtue, however, of curing diseases, which have defied
the skill of the most eminent Physicians, seems still more
wonderful.
The ingredient. *»f the water as ascertained by accurate
analysis are—quantity one wine pint,or 2d,875cubic inches

GOVERNOR HAMMOND'S LETTK
ON SOUTHERN SLAVERY.
Addressed to Thomas Clatkson, the English Abolit
[continued.]
After til!, however, the numbin' of
mixed breed in proportion to that of the black
is infinitely sm.ill, and out of the towns next lo
notliinjr. And when it is considered that the
African race lias been among us for two hun
dred years, and that those of the mixed breed
continually intermarry—often rearing large
families—it is a decided proof of our contin
ence that so few comparatively am to he
found. Onr misfortunes are two fold. Front
the prolific propagation of these inrtngrels
among themselves, we are liable to lie charged
by tourists with delioquences where none lias
been committed, wlii'e where one in s been,
it cannot be concealed. Color marks in
delibly the offence, and reveals it to every
eye. Conceive that, even in your virtuous
aud polished country, if every bustard through
all the circles of your social system was thus
branded by nature and known to all, what
shocking dovelopameiits might there not be?
How little indignation might your saints have
to spare for the licentiousness of the Slave re
gion. But I have done with this disgusting
tepic. Atul I think I may justly conclude,
after all the scandalous charges which tea-
table gossip and long gowned hypocrisy have
brought against tiie slave holders, that a peo
ple whose men are proverbially brave, intel
lectual and hospitable, and whose women are
unaffectedly chaste, devoted to domestic life
and happy in it, can neither be degraded nor
demoralized, whatever their institutions may
he. My decided opinion is, that our sys'em
of slavery contributes largely to the dovelope-
ment and culture of these high and noble qual
ities.
In an' economical point of view—which I
will not omit—Slavery presents some difii-
culiies. As a general rule, I agree it must
be admitted, that fee labor is cheaper than
slave labor. It is a fallacy to suppose that
ours is unpaid labor. The slave himself must
be paid for, and thus Ins labor is all purchased
at once, and for no trilling sum. Ilis prieo
was :n tLo firat place paid mostly to your
countrymen, and assisted in building up seme
of those colossal English fortunes since illus
trated by patents of nobility, and splendid
piles of architeciure ; stained and cemented,
if you like the expression, with the blood of
kidnapped innocents ; but loaded with no
• heavier curse than Abolition and its begotten
fanaticism have brought upon your land—
some of them fulfilled, some yet to be. But
besides the first cost of the slave, lie must be
fed and clothed ; well fed and well clothed, if
not for humanity’s sake, that be may do good
work, retain health arid life, and rear a family
to supply bis place. When old or sick he is
a clear expense, and so is the helpless portion
of his family. No poor law provides for him
when unable to work, or brings up bis children
for our service when we need them. These
oiooli heavy charges on slave labor. Hence,
in all countries where Inc denseness of the
population has reduced it to a matter of perfect
certainly that labor can be obtained whenever
wanted, and the laborer be forced by sheer
necessity to hire for the smallest pittance that
will keep soul and body together, and rags up
on lus back, while in actual employment, de
pendant at all other times on alms or poor
rates ; in all such countries it is found cheaper
to pay this piltance than lo clothe, feed, nurse,
support through childhood and pension in old
age a race of slaves. Indeed, the advantage
is so great as speedily to compensate for the
loss of the value’of the slave. And I have no
hesitation in saying that if I could cultivate
my lands on these, terms, I would without a
word resign my slaves, provided they could be
properly disposed of. But the question is,
whether free or slave labor is cheapest to us
in this country at this time, situated as we are.
And it is decided at once by the fact that we
cannot avail ourselves of any other than
slave labor. We neither have nor can we
procure other labor to any extent, or on any
thing like the terms mentioned. We must
therefore content ourselves with our dear
labor, under the consoling reflection that what
is lost to us, is gained to humanity; and that
inasmuch as our slave costs us no more than
your freeman costs you, by so much is he bet
ter off. You will promptly say, emancipa’e
your slaves, and then you will have free labor
on suitable terms. That might be if there
were five hundred where there is now one, and
the continent, front the Atlantic to the Pacific,
was as densely populated as vour Island. But
until that comes to pass no labor can be pro
cured in America on the terms you have it.
While I thus freely admit that to the indi
vidual proprietor slave labor is dearer than
free, I do not mean to admit it as equally clear
that it is dearer to the community and to the
State. Though it is ccrlain that the slave is
a far greater consumer that your laborer the
year around, yet your pauper system is costly
and wasteful. Supported by j’our community
at large, it is not administered by your hired
agents with that interested care and economy—
not to speak of humanity—which mark the
management of ours bj’ each proprietor for bis
own non-eflectives, nnd is both more expen
sive to those who receive its bounties. Besides
this, Slavery is rapidly filli ig up our country
with a hardy nnd healthy race peculiarly adapt
ed to our climate and productions, and confer
ring s'gnnl political and social advantages on us
as a people to which 1 have already refetr d.
1 have yet to reply to the main grounds on
which you and your coadjutors rely for the
overthrow of our system of slavery. Failing
in all your attempts to prove that it is sinful in
ils nature, immoral in its efif cts, a political
evil, and profitless to those who maintain it,
you appeal to ihe sympathies of mankind, and
attempt to arouse the world against us by the
most shocking tyranny and cruelly. You be
gin by a vehement denunciation ol “the ir
responsible power of one man over his fellow
men.” The question of the responsibility of
power is <i vast one. It is ilie great political
question of modern times. Whole nations
divide off upon it and establish different fun
damental systems of government:—That “re
sponsibility.” which to ore set of m liions
seems amply sufficient to check the govern
ment to the support of which they devote
their lives and fortunes, appears to another
set of millions a mere mockery of restraint.
And accordingly as the opinions of these mil
lion; diller, they honor inch other with the
epithets “Serfs” or “Anarchists.” It is ri-
t icnlous to introduce such an idea ns this into
the-discushion ot a mere Domestic lnstiiotfou*
But since you have introduced it, 1 deny thaS
the power ol the slaveholder in America is
“irre.;pondole. lie is resjwusible to- CJoJ.—
I le is rospon able to the World—a re's|A7Ttsf--

vv.iicti I write yoJ 4 tliis e e . lie is re'spon-
| sible to the a lnmuniiy in which he lives, and
I to die laws under which be enjoys his civil
! rights.® 'Those laws do not p'-rmit him to kill,
j to maim, or to punish beyond certain limits,
J or to overtask, or to refuse to feed and clothe
! his slave. In short, they forbid him to be ty-*
| r tnmcal or cruel, if any of these laws have
grown obsolete, i: is because they are so sel
dom violated dial they are forgotten. You
have disinterred one ol them front a compilation
j by some Judge Si mud, of Philadelphia, to*
st'gmalize ils inadequate penalties for killing,
maiming, ic:. Your object appears to be—
i you can have no other—10 produce the ini-
j pressiop that it mu-t be of en vio’a ed on ac-
j count of ils insufficiency. You say as much,
nnd that it ijiarks our eatimate of the slave.—
You forget to stale that this Jaw was enacted
by Englishmen, and only indicates their oj i,t--
isAi of the reparation due for these offences.—
Ours is proved by the fact, though perhaps
unknown to Judge Stroud or yourself, that we
have essentially aln ted this law r and the
murder c.t a slave lias for many years been
punishable with death in this State. And so ,‘t
is, I believe, i t most or all the Slave Statis.
\ ou sc. m well aware, however, that laws
have been recently j assed in all these States
making it penal to teach slaves lo read. Do
you Know what occasioned tin ir passage, ami
renders their stringent, enforcement necessa
ry ? I can tell you. It was the abolition ag
itation. If the slave is not allowed to lead his
Bible, the sin nsts upon the Abolitionists ; for
they stand prepared to furnish him with a
key to it, w liich would make it, not a book of'
hope and love and peace, but of despair, ha
tred and blood ; which would convert the
reader, not into a Christian, but a Demon.—
To preserve him from such a Dor rid destiny,,
it is a sacred duty which we owe to our slaves,,
noi leas tbun to ourselves, - to interpose the-
most decisive means. If the Catholics deem,
it wrong to trust ihejBible to the hands of
ignorance, shuil we be excommunicated be
cause we will not give it, and with the corrupt
and fatal Commentaries of the Abolitionists
our s'aves ? Allow our slaves to read your
pamphlets, stimulating them to cut our tliroat9 !'
Can you believe us to be such unspeakable--
foo’s ?
I do not know that 1 can subscribe in full to -
the sentiment so often quoted by the Aboli
tionists, and by Mr. Dickinson in his letters to>
me : '‘Homo sum ct nihil humanuma me alie-
munptUo,” as translated and practically il
lustrated by them. Such a doctrine would-
give wide authority to every one for the most
dangerous intermeddling with the affairs of
others. It will do in poetry—perhaps in somo
sorts of Philosophy—but the attempt to make
it a household maxim and introduce it into the-
daily walks of life, bus caust d many an “ lie—
n LrricAP Arau-tt, an*] ivaobaUijr will owir*
tinuc to do it. Still though a slaveholder, I
freely acknowledge my obligations as a man ;
and that I am bound to treat humanely the fel
low creatures whom God lias entiusted to my
charge. I feel therefore somevvr.at sensiiivo
under the accusation of cruelty, and disposed
to defend myself and fellow slaveholders against
it. It is certainly the interest of all, and I am
convinced that it is also the desire of every
one of us, to treat our slaves with proper kind
ness. It is necessary to our deriving ihe great
est amount of profit from them. Of this we
are all satisfied. And you snatch from us the
only consolaiion we Americans could derive
from the upprobious imputation of being wholly
devoted to making money, which your disinter
ested and gold despising countrymen delight
to cast upon us, when you nevertheless declare
that we are ready to sacrifice it for the pleas
ure of being inhuman. You remember that
Mr. Pitt would never get over the idea that
self-inteiest would ensure kind treatment to
si ives, until you told him vour woful stories
of tho Middle Passage. Mr. Pitt was right
in the first instance, and erred, under your tu
ition, iji not perceiving the difference between
a temporary and permanent ownership of them.
Slaveholders tire Lot more peifcct than other
men. They have passions. Some of them as
you may suppose, do not at all limes restrain
them. Neither do husbands, parents and
friends. And in each of these relations as se
rious sufferings as frequently arise from un
controlled passions as ever do in that ol Master
and Slave* and with as little chance of indem
nity. Yet you would nut on that; ecountbreak
them up. 1 have no hesitation in saying that
our slaveholders are as kind masters, as men
usually are kind husbands, parents aud fr.ends—
as a general rule, kinder. A bad master—lie
who overworks his slaves, pro vides ill for them,
nr treats them with undue severity—loses the
esteem and respect of his fellow-citizens to as
event an extent as he would for the violation
i f any of his social and most of liis moral ob
ligations. What the most perfect plan of en
gagement would be is a problem hard to solve.
From the commencement of Slavery in this
countrv, this subject has occupied the minds of
all slaveholders, as much as the improvement
of the general condition of mankind has those
of the most ardent Philanthropists; and the
greatest progressive ame. oration of the sys
tem has been effected. Yo usetf acknowledge
that iu theently part of your career you were
exceedingly anxious fur the immediate, aboli
tion of the Slave Trade, least those engaged in
it should so mitigate its evils as to destroy the
forte of your arguments and facts. The ini-
pro e netu you ti en dreaded has gone on stoa.

Of lute years we have been not only annoy
ed, but gieatly embarrassed in this matter, by
the Aholiticn sts, we have been compelled to
curtail some privileges; we have been debarred
from granting new ones. In (he face of di.-»
cussions, which aim at loosening all ti*s be

measure to abandoi^ our efforts to attach them
to us mo J contiol them through their alftctions
