No doubt thcrB are very many hum.iiic slave owners, but, it is well known, they nre not a .so(son.c je scarcely huwian) bcnco,it U that tbo, public, niarts of the seuihern States very much resemble, on ly more so, tho of Turkey, and o'.hur heathen nations who trudo in huiuun lite,! The fact is thnt tho negro is look ad upon by some as the farmer looks up on his stock, without distinguUhing that tho one is Cnpuble of becoming morally responsible, and the other is not. Tho negro is evidently adapted fr nothing but servitude, but they ought to be, in nil caei, used as. human beings. Should the Southern States secede, the probability is, that th?y will eventu ally return to the Union one by one, anJ adopt free instead of slave labor, njd thus slavery will die out of the land. There will be grtat danger if the southern Slates should sever themselves from the Union, that the sable rae wiil feel that they have an advantage in tho movement, as they wonid not have so grijiit a power to contend with, and tuny rise In revolution, make f .wrfal h if oe and perhaps free themselves &uo'u an occurrence is uot altogether iinpos.'i'ole It is hoped ly every one who wishes well to his coui.iry that such a calamity even as disunion may be averted, much more that un intextiuc war may never take place, and that the peace of the nation, instead of being only patched up for the present emergency, may be Cimly foun ded on the immoveable basis of integrity and truth. ,. ;.
