ISLAVEHOLDERS' AFT;OS.
" F . CRIOSCS FCRORE SUO PUNITLIft."
• Freely trauslated,,." men in a rage
bite.their own noses:i.ff." The per
cussion-cap, gilt-epauletted statesmen
of Missouri—the Majors, the Captains,
(almighty few of that low grade,) the
Colonels, (numerous,) the Generals,
(thick as hairs on a dog,) and the Ma
jor-Generals, of the highly intelligent
and carefully polished society of the
trans-Mississippi South-west, recently
in Convention at Lexington, have fully
manifested how it is possible for men
in a rage to make perfect fools of
themselves. Everything was "tre
mendous" there, according to the tele
graphic. report. Southern proceedings
are always tremendous. The "excite
ment" among the Colonels, Generals,
Majors, and Captains was tremendous
no less than twice. The " confusion"
was tremendous ; soiyas the stormi
ness of the session. Everything was
tremendous—even the folly, absurdity,
• and childishness of the entire occasion,
These were more tremendous than
all else.
Think of it, now—the stupidity that
sets up a great six-foot-two-inch fel
low—pompous with a self-assumed
or bar-room baptized title of " Gen
oar—fierce with great whiskers, and
a carefully cultivated martial scowl—
and actually fires out of him in bomb
shell style an offered resolution to ex
clude by taxation the products of
Massachusetts from the State of Mis
souri, for that Massachusetts will not
catch Kentucky niggers! Not to talk
of the unconstitutionality of such aPro-
Slavery revenue arrangement, consider
its folly. It proposes tostop the supplies
of the necessaries of life of this very
Creature, and of his brothers and sis
ters and friends and neighbors. Mis
souri does not manufacture. She has
to - buy, or go naked and wretched.
But all the manufacturing States re
gard nigger-catching with equal- re
pugnance. General Phoole of Mis
souri, therefore, is obliged to exclude ,
all American manufactures from his
State. There are British fabrics, to
be sure; but England not only refuses"
to catch slaves, but emancipates all she
has power over. So with the French.
But France and Englaud are out of
the Union, and not bound by the:
t' Compromises of the Constitution."
Then comes a difficulty not anticipated
by the Generals of the South-west.
,The manufacturing States of this Union
are the importing States. If Nlissouri
'wants Manchester or Birmingham,
Lyons or Paris fabrics, she has got to
buy them in Philadelphia, New-York
or Boston. She has not the choice of
going to New-Orleans for them, nor to
Savannah, nor to Charleston. They
have lots of slaves there, and a care
fully cherished Slavery—but no ships,
no European trade, and no present
visible means of establishing direct
European trade. Does not General
Phoole sic that his resolution, beside
being sell-injurious, is impossible of
execution? Missouri would. become
as ragged as Lazarus, and. more im
poverished than Job, if she undertook
to accomplish the policy recommend
ed to her by the epauletted Ibols re
cently in Convention at Lexington.
• :There would have been. uo harmony
in this affair, if some Colonel, after a
hurricane of Missouri eloquence, had
nut passed through the Convention -a
resolution to suppress Free-Soil opin
ions and publications in the Central
Slave States. My percussion-cap
friend, you might as well hag the
winds that sweep your State's prai
ties—as well chain and hopple the
laws . of gravitation, as the great law
of freedom of thought. and in a Re
public the consequent freedom of ex
- pressed opinion. Know, too, military
Sir, (haus a non lucendo,) that that
resolution saws civil war in the South.
You are not all of you fools, nor all
'Wedded by actual or imaginary inter
ests, to the system of slavery. There
arc Colonels and. Generals who will
think and speak their conviction that
unpaid negro labor is the bane of the
prosperity of the South, and who will
avow their unwillingness to transmit
it as the basis of a social economy, to
their children and their children's
.
children. You Colonels and Generals
will come by the ears. You had bet
ter be careful how you pass such res
olutions. They are wholly useless,
utterly impracticable—but they are
dangerous, too. They lay the founda
tions of an inquisitorial violence in
your own society, which will go far
toward a bloody issue of this Slavery
- question,
The folly of these epaulettes, is a
harmonious one. It runs through
their ideas of Trade, Commerce, So
ciety, Politics, Finance, and Law;
Slavery is a blessing. not a curse:
Yet it is a curse, too—to be ameliora
. tad by expansion. A natural settle
ment of a Territory is by allowing the
citizens of a neighboring State to leg
islate for it. A refusal to allow State
officers and State property to be "used
by the United States Government in
its new business of negro-catching is
-a declaration of hostility against the
Constitution. (How Magnificently
Gen. Phoole of Missouri must have
piled up the vocal on that word when
-speaking to the resolution I) And
then that threadbare threat of a disso
lution 'of the Union—the crowning lie
and impudent cap-sheaf of all slave
driving convocations. We' wish from
the bottom of our heart, that
could .be slapped to • these people:- for
just two years. Oh, how they- would.
sicken of. it! Within the-first week
of its operation, from every slave State
would be seen men hurrying North
with portable property. An unceas
ing tide Of emigration would set in, of
all people who.could clear out with
what they bad in hand or could soon
reduce to possession. The-apprehen
sion of future trouble with_the slaves,
would spread such sense of insecurity
as to depopulate the South of her
white mechanics, her lenders of mon
ey, her merchants, teachers, small
farmers, and all, indeed, who bad .not
a taste fur sleeping in the midst of 1
armed patois, and with pistols under
their pillows, and who were not tied
down by the ownership of slaves and
of agricultural land. Credit would
unwillingly and timidly be given to
the South at the North, in London..
and in Havre. In a word, Disunion
would bankrupt and destroy her.
We think it would do so in a perfect
finish within five years after it eclat
menced making a trial of it.• But
: thereis not a man in Missouri has the
least idea of trying it. " Disunion "
is kept *to scare Northern Boohoos.
and, arm and equip Northern Dough
faces.
SIJMIdMB. BEVEBAGX
AS the warm season is near at hand, when
our appetites Nvill naturally require some bev
erage that is satisfying and agreeable when
athirst, I wish to give to tho readers of the
Cultivator a few recipes for making healthful,
cheap and, agreeable drinks for the summer
season, which I know from experience to be
excellent for the purpose. The first is known
by the name of Seidlitz powders; they are
absolutely invaluable. They are Bold at a
very high price at the - drug shops, and are
frequently so old at to by nearly worthless ;
therefore, it is essential that we should all
know how to make them at first cost, which
is trifling. The following is a recipe for
making one powder, and any number cau
be made by the same rule: Rochelle salts, 2
drachms; carb. soda, 2 scruples; tartaric
acid, 35 grains. Dissolve-the salts and soda
togother in one glass, then dissolve the acid
in another, pour them together and drink
during the effervescence. To those who
have no scales for we'ghing such- small quan-
tities, I will say, that oue teaspoonful of the
salts will answer for two drachms and a half.
a teaspoonful for two scruples of soda; and
about'a quarter of a teaspoonful for thirty-five
grains of acid.
The nest iu order is what I shall call a
medicated lemonade, wh,ch is certainly a
very agreeable and healthy beverage for the
summer season; it is made as follows:. White
sugar, one pound; tartaric acid a, quarter of
an ounce; essence of loon:non, thirty drops ;
sealer .hree qu..r.s, Mix any quantity, for
more or ice, ezc be made by the same r le.'
There are 'some who prefer white sugar, but I
like browu nearly as well. Thus can a
lemonade be manufactured without the use of
lemons, which in my estimation is far superior
to that made from fruits, without much
trouble or expense.
I will close this communication by giving
a few recipes for making beer. First white
spruce beer; which is made as follows: three
pounds of loaf-sugar, four gallons of water,
ono ounce of grottod-giuger, a little lemonpeel
and enough of essence of spruce to give it a
flavor; add a cup of good yeast, and when
fermen:cd, bottle it close. This is a delight•
ful beverage. Second, imperial ginger beer,
which is made as follows :.cream of tartar one
pound; ginger, two ounces; white sugar
'seven pounds ; essence of lemon, one drachm,
water, six gallons ; yeast, half a pint ; bottle
and tie the corks down.
I forgot to say in its proper place, that in
drinking Seidlitz powders they would be made
more palatable by putting a spoonful of brown
sugar into the glass with the salts and soda,
i before pouring the acid in.—Bosfon Cultivator.
THE BOY FARMERS:-A Paris (Me.) paper
tells a good story of two boys, one thirteen
and the other eleven, who, on account of the
sickness of their father, were left to work the
farm. They thoroughly ploughed and cross
ploughed three acres of ra:her rough ground,
which•they then sowed, and then harrowed
it three times over. They also .assisted in
clearing one acre of new land, which was
filaWs with wheat. It grew well, especially
that first sown; but at harvest, the father
being still sick, there was none to dather . the
grain but these two little lads. Having nei•
thkr strength or skill to use the cradle; they
grasped the sickle with a iesolu:e hand, and
reaping what they could each day. perse
vered until the whole four acres was thus
harvested by them alone. The produce of
this crop would command in market $135•
and they did a good deal of work on the
farm besides. This shows what boys can do
if they really set about it, and make work of
work, and play of play 7 not trying to do both
at once.
