The putt er applied is multiplied 410 times, by the

.'l.uoii pounds on the cotton. The whole top of the

I'ntas near the Gin House a* is desired. It is three
limes »s powerful it* a screw of lb inches <liaineter.
lint has a nine inch pitch of threud with the same
'eagtli uf l.cvur, and of course the horse fins to walk
Imt one third as far, for the reason that a lever is
iwpiml hut one-third as long to thu same work. And
liinher. the Press follower descends with much groat-
rr Tepidity at the commencement of thu operation,
vlieutiut'litlle power is required, which shortens thu
JuU.icc travelled by the horse, iu pmpoition to the
iwtTeased velocity of the follower at the start.
This Press cau he made very compact, and equally
pi aerial, by using the w heel unit axle, mid can be so
n»iificd as'to answer any purposes where a Press is
lore,itry for insiiufurliiriiig or domestic purposes.
Far cotton itrequires onc-krurth less work to build,

(FROM THF. S1UTHZRN QUARTERLY REVIEW.]
Is Southern LTvilfznrion Worth Prc-
•errlagi
It ia accomplished! All I Hat tho Sonth has
been protesting against, for the last three years
has been completed; all that lhe North has de
minded lias been substantially granted. The
queslioubas been fairly Iried, aud it is solemnly
decided that tlio eulire machinery of a common
government i$ to be employed for the sole benefit
of one portion of the country, and the govern
ment is convinced that the other portion is so
week in its purposes and resouices. that no heed
is to be taken of its argumcnls, it- remonstrances,
its warnings. Usurpation, almost ingredible in
extent, has been based upon this conviction. But
for a firm reliance upon tho vvaut ol power and
determination in the South, the North had not
dared to urge ita encroachment*, even as experi
ments, much less to have pressed them to their
temporary consummation. This ia a sad thing to
tall, that tyranny is bold became it deems us im
becile. But what tyranny has Its grasp upon us 1
of what encroachments do we complain ? what
powers of government are used against usT why
ttuiier a common government, speak of North and
South, ami say ire only when rperking of iho lat- ojipin-ncsA c
terT Let ns see. Lot ..* hwk uWhttre reasons, and. at eucb re-n ■:> arauce, it
as men who have mighty issues tendered to them, » - •- >---■•
and predetermined to di*eern their full import.
To take a comprehensive view of onr present
condition, let ns single out from the rest or tho
world, theso United States niul consider them as
n nation. Every,nation must be viewed iu a
double aspect—that is, with regard to other na
tions. nnd with regard to itself. The first char
acteristic that will atriko nil inquirer, is, that the
nation we nre now considering is a republic:
nil observation early made, cither with respect
to itself or in relation to the rest of the world.
B it in looking' to itself alone, in miking an
analysis of its component pars, trod tiacing
their mutual connection and relation, the fact
is detected, that ibis- vast republic is made
up of n number of separate, and, iu tmmy
respects, independent republics, differing essen
tially in numbers, wealth, size and policy; but
all constituted, by the solemness compact, equals,
ns inlegra! fractions of the great whole. The
next process moat be to classify these individual
governments or States, and range them iu groups,
distinguished by important peculiarities. Homo-
geileousoe.ss id diversity ol population will be,
perhaps, tho first point of inquiry : whence came
tne people who have overrun the new world ? are
they from Ihe same origin T do they spring from
one common race ? Examination discloses, that
in about one half of these integral fraction-, the
population consist* of a white Caucasian rac-
sparselv intermingled, here and there, with an
iiis guificuiit proportion of the descendants of some
of the black African tribes. In theotber half, the
gams two races co exist, but their proportion is
mat-nially changed, there being, iu point of num
ber. about tin equality betweon them. In neiiber
division nre they fused together or considered as
equals; in both, tile blackooccupy a situation, so
cially aud politically, iuferior to the whiles, who
are, in all places, the governing race. A glance
at the map shows that the small proportion of Af-
ricansis found in the northern and tbe large in tho
southern pai ls of the nation, and a geographical
line decides the division betwenn them. Look
ing to the causes which have placed distinct races
upon the snmearen. it is seeu that, to both divis
ions. the while came by spontaneous immigration ;
thu black by enforced transportation. Aud the
involuntary removal of the latter from Africa was
effected, as a commercial operation, by the joint
effoits of a now foreign power, and that portion of
ihe nation which, iu the early period of its colon-
ruugeniant*. we will he able to furnish our customers,
w ith all tlio luxuries from New York and Savannah,
which we will servo np iu every style to please the

Upon their first introduction, they were more
equally distributed than ot prescut, mid, in all
places were held in bondage for the sake of their
iuhour. Ill the course of time, tlioy were sub
jected to nud obeyed the law of civilization, in
tl-.o emigration of lahor, and gradually tended to
that (matter where climute and other circiinistatr
cert ns-i-ted their increase nud made llieir labor
most heneficiul. In all places, they were brought
over to he slaycs. As, nnder die law alluded to,
til ay decreased ill number ut the Norlli, and were
supplied in part by other labor, lhay were grad
ually released from bondage, but (lave never been
udiriilled to the full rights of their former owners.
Iu die South, the old relations huvo uot been dis-
t'uibed; many regulation* and improvements
hnve been introduced, hut this is not the place tu
advert to them. The first grand distinction, then
ia riiat the North ia uot staveliolding; the South
is, and the slavery is that of a rare markedly dif«
feront from the dominant one Thus the first
classification is based upon n social organization,
existing iu some nud not prevailing iu others of
tbe Slot *. In other respects, (poliiically cons'd-
eretl.Jiher mainly ugr-», and whatever differen
ces broadly exist are connected with this distinc
tion—a distinction which is admitted, on all aides,
to have exercised a controlling itilbieneo upon the
character and pursuits of the governing popula
tion, and tlio resources and condition of iho
country.
The history of onr present form of government
must next be considered, to see the rciatiou iu
which these two great sections stand to it, and to
each other. Tbe chief ditlicully, ill framing tbe
c institution, arose from the very question of
slavery, and it never Vvoiifd have been framed,
but upon the ground that ibis subject was to be
Ieit In oacb part of tbe country to arrange for
itself, without interference or inulestulfou by the
other, and the federal government was to exteuil
its protection to tlio holders of slaves, tlio same us
to tho owners of any other property. Tlio con
tra! authority;was to protect Hie institution, as a
matter of property, but no other power over it
was given. Fugitives from labor, it was express
ly stipulated, should be delivered up ou demand-
The escape of a slave into a Slate where tbe re
lation of master aud slave did not exist, wn* to
confer no benefit upon hitn—the law of owner
ship was to attach to him,no matter in what juris-
diction lie tvas found. Ami uot only were the
then existing staves guaranteed in this way to
thejr owners, hut their further “ importation," up
to o fixed time, was distinctly recognized. The
great principle, of the equality of all the sections,
pervades the whole constitution, and give* vitality
to its every portion. The right of each State to
decide wlml is property remained untouched, and,
«ith the power, it became the duty of tbe gene
ral government to defend that decision, nod give
protection to pronei ty. Cheeks and balance*
were framed, with a tqn-cinl view to ibis end.
Slavery was recognized by the constitution, and
non slavery ivae equally admitted; hut atili-
a'nvory had no authority in Ihe government. Be
tween slavery nnd iron slavery the balance of
power was nicely poised, and it* equilibrium tjd-
juded. Such was tho original compact f such was
the only compact which cou'd have been formed,
anil such it win intended to remain forever. Is it
so now J Who dare answer it is t Equality ia
destroyed, slavery proscribed, the entire North,
no louger merely nun-slavery, is unanimously anti-
slavery. nnd has compelled Ihe fedora! govern
ment itself to be positively, openly, actively, anti-
slavery. The North is the government; the
South holds nothing nnder the constitution—bare
sufferance i- her only teuure.
Uow has it been effected! Wlmt has changed
the Mihslaure of government, without affecting ita
form! What consequences must follow upon the
cliangef Let us sec. Constant anil gradual ag
gression has marked the stages which were ne
cessarily passed through, before flat present poai-
j tion of ihiiiss could ho reached. To write a full

inn*, aiuce that time, of the North upon the South,
and tbe deplorable condition oftlie latter at pres-
euL The narrative will develope the fact, that iu
all tho agitations which have taken place, the
North has beeu the attacking party; the Soulh has
stood ou the defensive. Let the Soulh. too, mark
well the important truth, that every gain on tlio
towards absolute

well mu I01|i'jrtuua as uiui »**••*• VI j g
part of tho North, every stride toward
dominion, has been in tho ii.-imo and
guise of a “compromise." Every movement n-
uainst us has beeu carried by tbo plea of-‘concilia
tion.” and every surrender, on our side, has been
always a “final adjustment." Strauge that, iu ov-
ery compromise, tbe S nitb has never gained ouo
•Ingle p lilt, nor received one additional guaran
tee for her right-
From our previous re u-.rks, it is perceived that
t the agitations are not ol recent origin. More vio-
I lent now than ever, they dsto from the early 1ns-
| tory of the constitution, aud leave lin'd room to.
doubt that they are inherent in the very nature of
our government, and nan be destroyed only by it
radical change. Always has the excitement grown
from the nttempt, on the part of the North, to ar
ray the federal power ia direct hostility to slavery.
Ordinary party conflicts, and tbe struggle lor pos- ,
session of the epoils of office, were unfortunately
co eager as to preveut tbe attention which so se
rious a subject, in common prudence, demanded
of thu South. In the inid-t of political contest, few
heeded the existence of political abolition. At
those moments, however, when party strife had
ceased for an instant, and weary" pnrtizans were
emplu'-ing their leisure in contriving new scheme*,
for their advancement, this being ofdiscord would
roar its horrid head, mid proclaim its unfaltering
determination, to achieve its purposes. Long was
it dirregarded by tbe many. In ample time, thu
great conservative statesman of the ago. the un
rivalled intellect ofthe America nworld, raised hi*
voice of warning. He was disregarded; inferior
minda would'not admit the exjsteuee of « more
far-seeing intelligence than their own; less hi-n-ie
spirit* feared to meet a danger which lu-cbl bu
postponed; party spirit preferred taking counsel
from our natural opponents, and so tbe South look
ed culmly on, as if the matter were of no concern.
Supinemrss did not prevent a return of the evil,
oniJ, at each re-nppeo.fauce, it bad crown iu size
and strengthened in audacity. Northern men,
who at first bade it defiance, were at each return
more obedient to its wishes. Aroused to ita im
portance, the South yet yielded to its demands,
upon what were termed, to gloss the cowardice of
surrender, unimportant poitiU, (as if any guaranty
of liberty was unimportant,) in the vain hope, by
timely concession, of appeasing ita fury. Each
concession, as had been predicted, encouraged re
newed exaction—every position gained served as
a point d’appui for further operations against tho
constitution and against us.
In narrating the particulars of these proceedings
we recite a series of triumph gained hy the united
North over the divided South. Tho first great
triumph to which we recur, was the fatal error by
which the South acceded to the mis called Miss
ouri Compromise, when the North demanded nnd
received the surrender of a large portion of slave
territory, as the pjtce of admission of a slave State
to the Union. It was a sad mistake. However,
it was then proclaimed that the North bad gained
all she would ever ask. and the question was set
tled forever. The South acquiesced as a concess
ion to the Union, which, however, since that time,
has ceased to be of any value to her, save as a
matter of sentiment. In reality it was no tribute
to the Union, but a surrender to anti-slavery, with
which the government was designed to have no
connexion. Yet, ever since made, it has been sus
tained by the South as a binding Compact sorely
to her disadvantage, hut to be preserved with the
sacn-d respect due to n solemn treaty. This Wan
the first point gained. We shall not allude to the
Tarifl", although it is a branch of the same ques
tion. It is but shallow observation, which dee*
not perceive in the design aud development ofthe
protective system, that it was an attempt to tax
slave tabor for the benefit of the free States.
Hence, the readv acceptance of the system by
the North, and in spite of all the casuistry used,
the instinctive repulsion of the Soulh. Nor will
we discuss the modes by which ihe popular mind
ofthe North was induced to concentrate its pow-
eis and prejudices against the institutions oT
the South, for at present we only desire to call at
tention to the movements by which were sought
possession and control oftho tederai Government.
With a profound policy, slnvery iu the District of
Columbia was selected as the next object of attack
The selection was masterly: it was the strategy
of Napoleon. Tho whole attacking force was
thrown upon the weakest points ofthe antagonist,
where a like forco could uot he concentrated.
The result has proved iu this instance the correct
ness oftlie calculation. Tbe South denied the
jurisdiction of Congress, but permitted Congress
to assume jurisdiction. Who can now doubt what
would have beeu the effect of a sternsissertion of
right, backed by its resulute maintenance. But
the "compromise” was again brought iuto play:
the great right of petition was all that was is.iughll
let that be accorded, and it might beamiciibly ar
gued how much of her rights the Soulh was to
li>* permitted to enjoy. Again the South yielded
The warning of incorruptible patriotism was dis-
resardod. In vain Cn»anndra cried aloud that the
wooden horse should uot he admitted within the
walls. (Will we arouse, ere Troy bo wrapped in
flames!) Southern men of pliant disposition. w:i!i
eyes fixed upon federal office, could easily be per
suaded that ilie most ofiVctual way to strengthen
the main defences, was to surrender the outworks.
A few cheap compliments to expauded views and
patriotic conciliation, and obsequious Southerners
threw open the doors, while the arrogant aboli
tionist stalked into the Council Hail of the nation,
and throwing his iusuient petitions before the
members, demanded, as of right he should .be
heard aud obeyed. Who does not remember how
many Southern representatives returned lionie ta
chant I’leaus to the Union, and assure llieir too
confiding constituents that their rights were secure
and agitation at au cud. How fur-soeiug their
statesmanship, time has already told.
This point gained, tho Anti-Southern party were
dexterous in its use. The spot which occupies ihe
attention of the whido country was their theatre,
and the people were their audienen. At any oili
er place, no malter how strong their efforts.lheit-
sneers* at bestcould be only local. But here every
petition was to the whole Northern population.—
They seized ujion the press, and no Southern ar
gument was allowed a henring at the North. As
thair numbers increased, they daily brought un
der control some portion oftho two great political
parlies, until both were compelled to bo competi
tors in the- bidding for the favor of those, whom
recently they had represented to the Sonth os too
insiguificaut' to merit uotico. Very soon ihnso
who co-opeftited with them became iufected with
their spirit.Tbey had commenced hy lending them
selves to certain views,&euded by adopting them.
Fanaticism often commences with hypocrisy; the
hypocrite easily becomes a fanatic, llnpi ily and
inevitably, tbe old desire of the North, became
converted into au inteuso determined w-tali for her
Ulter subjection. At length, some four vearjsince,
every point which it was deemed advisable seri
ously to attack had been carried, and to achieve a
full victory over the South, tho North only wailed
the time when its power should have sufficiently
increased. There was no haste for this: the forms
ut loast oftho Constitution were to be respected
though its spirit might he violated, and tlio event
was to ho postponed nntil the period, when by.
rapid increase from immigration, and the working*
oftho govern mom, it should bn enabled, by n
change of tho Conslituiou, to pass the fiual judg
ment upon an. institution, which iu advance had
beon pronounced to bo doomed. Mutters stood
thus, when a sudden change iu att’airs prevented an
opportunity of quickly ellectiug what otherwise
would have been a work oftirn -. Was the oppor-
tunity neglected 1
On the Sill of May, 1816. the first batt le or tbo
