" In this article we propose to Tay the Sg• ures and the facts touching this matter, plainly before our readers. We do not kcpe that the truth will open the eyes of the victims of Abol:tion fanaticism, but it may possiblyseve •some from following the multitude ipf 6 the - dishonoring, the bloody delusion. The frutb is, that negra 'slavery' has been a curie to neither North nor South, but has seen a &easing to both, as the history and the tiguers will show.— we state Vie question thus plainly, because we mean to challenge contradiction. It is said that there is such , a thing as a man telling a lie until he himself belibves it to it , Lk. - A hnlitioniats...may_ have repeated their falsehoods nnl slanders vital they believe them to be true ;.but their leaders do not believe them ab implicitly that they date risk a fair and public debate upon them. They are brave at assertions, dogmatism, noise, and wordy defiance, but they flee within the coveret of prejudice and ignorance as the approach of any men who 'her facts are the inventions of impositors. Their logic the yell of the hog dervish es. Foolish anti malicious. Behold the abomination of their pretentious in the fol lowing statistical records of the two sections of our country: 1. flow has tie North suffered by negro 'lrlaiery' in the South ? It has grown rich off the proceeds of 'elate' labor. The mer chants, the manufactorers, the mechanics, and all ease .`3 of laboring men, here in the. North, have I.oen immensely bonellted by the fruits of ,argra 'slavery' in the South.— , More titan two thirds of the mercantile, manufseturing, and industrial operations of the North are base upon,the labor of the South. Strike down this 'slave' la bor, and 7(>11 sweep out of existence Iwo, thirds of the commerce of the.Cnited States at a single blow. The United States Trea sury tables of 1859 show that our exports of that year W0re . 5279,892,0130 ; of which $l7B l 000,000 were of Southern allgin, while $7B - only were of Northern origin.— While the South produces more than two-, thirds of the exports of the country, the North reaps'mainly the commercial advanta ges arising therefrom. The Treasury Ta bles of Ithitl_shose.that_ the twinge of the. North was 1,881,880 tons, while that of the South wattastly 091.618 tons: and to employ tills shipping. the North furnished only $B - worth of freight ; the South tot nista ed 524,500,000 worth. While the South furnished six-sevenths of the freight, she had lees than one-sixth of the outage, thus , throwing ahnost all the immense profits of the emying business Into the pockets of the Notch, The South Its, nut only kept out ships and merchants busy, but she has also given employment to our meohanics, artisans and laborers. In 31360, we sold the South goods of our own manufacture to the value of $240,000,009.. We sold them important gotaje which we paid -for &brood by MAL horn exports, $106,- 000,00 Q. The interest and brokerage we mode out of the South that year, $68,200,000. Money spent in the North by tionthern'vis , itors, tradesmen, travelers Ste., during that year, $58,750,374. Making our total business with the South that year, $102,600,874. That is the way we have suffered by the South. That is the way the South has wronged us. She has given employment, to our merchants, mechanics and laborers, to such an extent that we may truly say we owe our prosphrity to her. The production of southern 'slave' labor has been the great Motive battery that has driven nearly all the induitrial operations of the North. The Treasury tables Of the United States show that not only otir commerce, but the whole of our industrial interests, have kept exact pace with the increase of the of the 'slave' productions of the South. In 1820, when there were only , one -million five hun dred thousand "slaves" producing the - staples of commerce. our tonago -eras only 47,000 tons; but in 18:03, when there were over three millions of negroes produeing the same staples, our tentage was 460,0(10 tons. Every item of the material wealth of the, North hits increase in the same ratio with the increase of the 'glare' staples of. the South. Thalia the way 'alitvery' has hurt us. By the blessings of Almighty God, may it' con tinue to do,for our children as it has for us —giving employment to our capital and to our industry—giving cheap cloathing and high wages to nor 'tailoring men, and to our cointiterce a name respected on every sea. That is whit 'slavery' has done for the North. We know how profanely the Abol itionists will rave at these stern truths.— But there stand the facts and the figures— let them deny them if titey dare. Mare told also that 'slavery' has impov erished the South itself; and to remedy - this "evil We are now trying to cut the thrbat, of every,yrhitaman, woman and 'child there, and_ro ere the lands to the negroes - and to such people, In the North,. as are willing to live on terms of perfect equality with the negroee. That me may' see how 'slavery' has impoverished ,the South, we will take the eye Old 'slave' States, from jdaryland, and including Georgia, and compare ,them . ' with six New England States, 'which boast of belnt possessed of almost all possible' advantages over the tat of mankind.* Itr 1850, these New EniTesl &stashed a pop ulation of 2,748, , 1. In two huidred years they hid itecm.iteg to the census of 1850, accumulated wealth to the amount of one billion, to ey mil:fon/our Asmara and sixty tboosand doUors, while the Ave 'slave' States with the same population, had accumulated wealth to the hmount of one billion lour lass dred and twenty wUlaw, nine lunsdredd esihtyesine thousand daUari. Thus the - ffve 'slave' Stateseemunulated mt aonarate wealth over the aodumulited wealth or the al: New England States of four hundred amid mentos* million Jilts hundred and sipkry eine thousand dollars. If the white wealth of New England were equally dflided among its °Therm, it would give Smith but three hsoidred and *lady fzilers, whISI the property of the live 'slave litotes. (kink* divided 'among their citizens, would give_mullt the i seq 4 4 o.4 40Storth slum fa !aver of thp 'SW* la= - wisti.""ritiAr *let* - 01 411latesi: [ - • bor. kZ= property were eci a tialltrdicd t aract all (; her ti ti a l , el i l ;h g e l e V p . ropertz ' wereso B u t 14 could gird every °Worn 11,100.

The ,popula tion of all the free States according to the', cocoanut' 1860, wne 18,214,880. The white population of all the 'slave' States way 8,812- 879. All the Northern Statue of thirteen million citizens had accumulated property to the amount of three billion one hundred and eighty Mx million six hundred and risky three thousand dollars, while the *lave' States of only six million eitikens had accumulated two billion seren hundred and seventy five mil lion one hundred bed twenty thousand dollars worth of property. While the population of the Nosth.watt one hundreer and ?limper rent great& than the:South, i• had sqcutnttlated, riches. but sixteen per cent above the South. So a division of all the property of the non-, slaveholding States, among all their Inhab. itante equally, ;would give to each only ' MIL ithileilt_samasilyition_QMlL. risk= i of all the 'slave' States would give to every' white man $429. This is the way 'slavery' has impoverished the white people of the South. This is the "loaing.gume of 'slave• ry,"' of which vrehivenlaard so.,utuch for a quarter of a century. The census 'of 1860 shows that the wealth of the Wave' States warahout double per capita to that of the --eleveholding States. What folly, then, whet intpu once or us ere n .e to talk of the 'losing gam " of slim. ry; with these Signers_ staring us in the face 8. We hear a great deal abctut the barbar ism sad wretchedness which slavery inflicts upon family and home in the South,', What say the figures on this subject ? Let us take again the six pointing New England Staten, and compare them with the five old 'slave' States having the same population. It must lie conceded that a home for every family is one of the - most 'desirable bless ings that civilization can bestow. The more complete or the less mixed this home, the greater the probabilities of happiness and virtue. Now those Ave New England States had, according to the census, 618.532 fami lies, while they bad only 447,787 dwellings So that New England had seventy thousand seven hundred and foil) , three families without a separate lime; - while the five 'slave States, containing the same popula tion, have 5013,768 families,- and 470,869 dwellings. Thus in New England one fam ily in every seven is without a home, while in the 'slave' Stat. a,- n 1 ; one lam ly in every fif ty two is destitute of th iainestimable bless- , sing. This,' then, is wliht 'blavery', has I done for the l white homes of the South. This tittitekial wretchedness and barbarism we hear so much about. There—are actually more white families bracts up,- separated and scattered to thi four winds of heave-t in these New England States titan there aVe 44 r 13' families thus separated in the southern . stoo, But our present estimates are all concerning white people North and South 4. We bear incessantly of the irreligion of 'Aare' holdere. and our northern clergy are in the habit of praying for the southern people as though they were heathens, and without christian habits. It is, not an easy matter to estimate the relative religious merits of a people, We can only take the visible evidences of attachment. or of indif ference to religious institutions as our guide. Let us again take the six New England States, and the five old 'slave' States, and see in which section we find the greatest ev idence of a profound and consistent attach ment tone worship of God. We are still guided by the Bennis of 1850. After two centuries of religious agony, New England has erected 42,607 churches, while the five old 'stove States, with the same population hove erected, 94.081 churches. The New England churches accommodate one million eight hundred and ninety-three souls, while the churches in the five old 'slave' States no comotintes two million eight hundred and ninety-six thousand f,ur hundred and,sev enty two souls. So these irreligious 'slavo' States have erected double the number of churches, and furnished the moans of grace to over a million - more souls than the boast ing pharisees of New England have. One third of the population of New England is unprovided with- sany place of worship. while these 'slave' States have provided 'churches for a million more people than can go to church, if they wanted to, In New England. This is the irreligion of 'slave' holders.. Again we all know that the religious senti ment of the South is almost entirely free from the innumeral jams which have domo- ratized tiortit. , . All such abominations as :Mormonism, )1 ii leristo, Communionism, Ereeloveism, and Spiritualism, are of northern birth, and have never made any headway in the South. The southern churches bare steadily reels-, ted all these profane and corrupting. innova tions upon the pure domain of Christian faith. It is the rarest thing t 6 see a church split to pieces thereby schism. Neither is there, comparatiVely, any of the indecent sectarian violence in the south whit% has disgraced the very name of religion in the North. The ministers of the Gospel in the South as a class, are, in Christian deport ment, and in manly character, far ahead of the clergy. as a class in the North. One reason of this undoubtedly is the settled, dignified, and tolerent .character of the southern churches. "Like people, like priest," is an old maxim. The language which the different sects in the North are in the habit of applying to each other is far more becoming the fish markets than the temple of God. Such indecent and profane clerical demagogues as Beecher, Cheerer, Tyng, and Bellows, even, leaving ( out their Abolitionism, would not be tolerated in the South. With all Oise facts known to ns what intolerable impudence for us to talk about the "irreligious elisrseter of slave. holders I" We &retold that 'slavery' has brought.de ntoraUsation and crime upon the South.— Let us hare theligares. The census of 18- 59 shows that the refloat whites in the Pod tuntiary of Virginia, for ten years wee one to hoots+ thousand, while the ratio in liassit ohusetts State Prison was one to wan thousand Ire hundred and eighty seven.— In the olty of New York„ in 1849, .there were 12,85 convictions for crime , whlob ala,more than in all the fifteen %lave' States for thit year. In the State of jaw York is 184 T! thoo Were ten thensand tato 'bandied - and aswinkr bonvlonotow thy tionth Cecelia; in a ptrittlatkoVentbre thaw • etie IIfIaVAIA of IfirarlroCk, tlifirtwiwilt at = ty ikeisbeikfortilk- The 14411 CUtioston, 9. Cto! tbet 7air, were di ICE and a half percent, less than in Boston.— The same minims discloses the fact that free aegroes Beath are a Trot deal less addieted to crime than free negreeeltortb. In Idas sachuseetts the ratio of BAI4 negroes in the State Prison, Ur ten years, was one to two hundred and fifty, In the Penitentiary of +mid and. one. So that in the non-slow-holding Staten two hundred 'and fifty free niiiroes commit As mneh crime annually ai three thousand free negroef in the .slave' States. Seven thousand five . hundred anti eighty seven white people in the free States com mit annuallyna much crime as twenty three thousand and three white people commit at the South. -The criminal degradation a mong the whites at the North is from three to five times greater thin at the South —= One reason of this undoubtedly is, that extreme poverty is &knoll, unknown et the South. There is not the same debising competition, the seine selfish strife for the necessaries of life there, and the selfish pas sions are mush leas exeited, while a sense of superiority of race, which is pria - nially awarded to the white of every degree:shuts off from a thousand temptations incident to life in the North', How else shall we ac count for the vastly leas amount of crime in AkeSoutb! The census. prows the tact mid_ ought for ever to seal the lying lip, of Ab-, oli t lonian!. 6. Another of the falaboods of Abolition ism is, that the whites are physically , de generating in the "slave" States. Where are the figures for that 1 One of the signs An of phy sical degeneration is pauperiewe.— Let uc see. in the six New England States --4 there were 88.431 kaupers ) iu,t4e firs old - ' t v" Rats 'alave",States, cotitaTning the same popu lation, there -were 14,221, giving In the New England States en excess of paupers of one hundred and thirlytive per cent. over these 'slave' States. The ratio of native born New Englanders in the pitor houre is one to one hundred and forty-three; while in these five .slave' Slates it i■ one to one hundred and thirty-four. All nationali ties in' the New England poorhouses are in the ratio Of one to eighty-one, while in.the 'slave' States they are one to one hundred and seventy one. . Another sign of physical degeneration is the growing frequency of Insanity. What says the census on this point! There were in New England. 8.829 cases of insanity, while in the five 'slave' States embracing an equal population, there were only 2,828 cases. 'Here in a - di ff erence of more than sixty per. cent. in favor of the 'slave' &Maw An equal per odnt. will befound in favor of the , slave' States, in relation to deal and arab. Pondlational decrease - is another evidence of physical . deterioration. ..New England, with 11 ; 564 more families than the old `blare' States, •bee 16,634 less births ann4l - and 10,152 more deaths that these 'slave' Siete& The %hive' Statee hive 27 - per' eeht more births, and thirty-three pet cent leis deaths. . • e reflect that the climate of a Arent por- lion of these five 'slave' States is a great (leafless healthy than that of New England. Where •slaver.T . has existed for over two hundred years; we find the population, even in a eompitratirely unhealthy climate, ex hibiting signs of physical perfectability from thirty to forty per cent of the the heelthieet and most orderly or.t..the free glues. This, then, is the wax. wbrrev'lllts deteriorated thaphysippl man. If we wan ted further proof aims same kinkof phys ; icul debility from 'slavery,' we may find it in the history. of the present war—a history in which even our boundless impudence has thus fardfound nothing it dared to brag Over. 7. Another falsehood of Abolitionism is, that poor white people are despised end trodden under foot by the slavehold re.— This id about the wickedest lie of all; for it is exactly the reverse in the South.—There the white Mtn wears an' eternal badge of honor in his white akin, which, however poor he mny be, if he is an honest, upright and intelligent citizen is always a •k new e Let alltimes and in all places. Th is fact aolonished the English traveller, Col. Freementle,when 'he lately visited the South. Speaking of this very eines (poor whites) in the South, be says : •Every white man is as good satinet' - er (by theory) and every white female le, by courtesy, a lady—there is only ono class. • This we know to be strictly true. A white man may he as poor as Warns there, and still, if he possemps the attributes of charac ter and intelligenN, his poverty never bars him from the parlors of the rich, as it door in the North. • There the social ban is on the black race, and not, as here, upon the • poi.- erty of our own white race. Poverty is never treated as a crime in the South. Let the poor, but honest white man answer how the thing is here in the North. And let his gnawer stand for refutation of the Abell- - falsehood in relation to this matter. 8: • Anotbee.nherne is that the South is without schools, and has done nothing for the manse of education. What says the cen sus? Take again the 'six Slew England States, and compare, them with the five ori ginal 'slave' States. These New England States, have in colleges end academies, L -002. The five 'slave' States hereof the same 1,2115. The New England States have en, dorsal their colleges and academies to 4le extent of $848.806. The five tialsorP. States have endowed theirs to the mafibt Coate* aunt of $1 080 433 —"Thus the tiro' 'slave' States'hes 163 mere colleges and ieldemies than the six New, England States, and these fire `slave' States have beat the Ida' States of New England in endowments of these in stitutions of learning, 'pH 680. Under these figures, bow look titre editor'', lecturers, and ministers of the North, who have cram med the public mind with so many impudent falsehoods on this subject ? It is but a few weeks since a New England chaplain, writ ing tom New Orleans, to a New York paper, declared that 'the South is without schools.' whin the truth Is that the State of Louisi ana, from-whiCh this,elarictel vagabondwrote si k his the finest system.of common ools of any State in a, Salon ; or had be re But ler broke them' up in New Orl 8, and Banks in the itiontitry, as far as he has .4, vaned.--The State of Louisiana has twelve Universities, with an average of9Bfiseholars, while lidaissehnsitte has mar Aar, with an an average of 769 scholars: And yeta kits esobusetternduinteryrltee home that.

It le some time since the public min 4 has been refreshed by a letter from the "Old Joker." It is some time !taco we hate been enlightened by hie s mtartling truisms—pene trating truisms—which not even a leboohboy in the land has had the temerity to contro vert. Not a year ago he startled mankind by the bold enunciation of a truth hitherto concealed from human pen, to wit :—"That it is easter to pay a small sum than a Imre one—and that it ie easier to pay nothist, Mats it is to pay something!" This world rteeiveid thin bright scintillation-with profound mon inhalant, and to Gas diY neither savant nn sophomore has ventured-to dispute it. Mr. Lincoln's last letter, although it is not die tinguisleed by the some keen points of ori ginol genius, is, nevertheless, quite credit able toils author.
