But where are the great results? Let the census and *reports of the prisons answer. Worse--inrompa rablv worse, than the condition of the slaves; and de monstrating that the free black in the midst of his friends in the North, is sinking lower every day in the scale of want and crime and misery. The regular physicians' report and review, published in 1840, says the .nfectst,-then, show an inereeuing disproportionate numbs' of' colored prisoners in the eastern penitentia ry." In contrasting the condition, fur the same year, of the penitetitiarics of all the nonedaveholding state. as cempetred with all the slaveholding States in which returns are made, I find the numberuf fret: blacks is fifkr-four toone, as compared with the slaves, in pro portion to population, who use incarcerated hi these prisons. There 'are no paupers among the slaves, whilst in the non-slavehoLliug States treat is the num- Ler of colored:paupers. Frnm the Belgian statistics, compiled by Qtustel et, the distinguished secretary of the Royal Academy at 'Brussels, it appeurs that in Belgium, the number of deed and dumb was one 'net efevery 2.180 persons; in Great Britain, one out of every 1,539; in Italy, one out" cf every 1.539; and in Europe, one out of every 1,484. Of the blind, one net of every 1,009 in Bel gium; one out of every 800 ih Prussia; one out of ev ery 1,600 in France; and one out of every 1,686 in Snxony; and' no further teems es to the blind are given.—[Belgian Annuaire, 1836; pp. 213.215,217] But the table shows an average in Europe of one of ev ery 1,474 of deaf and dumb, and of about one out of every 1 000 of blind; whereas our census shows, of the deaf and dumb whites of the Union, one unit of ev ery 2,173; and of the blacks in the non-slaveholding states, one nut °revery 65fi; also, of the blind, one out of every 2 821 of the whites of the Union, and 'one out of every 516 of the -blacks of the non-slaveholding stares. Thus we have not only shown the conditiou of the bludis of the non-slaveholding states to be far worse than that of the slaves of the south, but alsofir wor=e than the condition of the people of Europe, de plorable as that may be. It has been heretofore shown that the free h'acks in the non-slaveholding states were becoming. in an augmented proportion, more debased in morals as they increased in numbers; and - the ri't'e prormKi tion 13 true in other respects. TIM, by the census of 1830, the number of deaf and dumb of' the free blacks of the non-slaveholding states, was one 'out of every 996; and of the blind, one out of every e 93; whereas we have seen, by the census of 1840; number of blacks, deaf and dumb, in non-slaveholding was one oat of every 656; and of blind, one out of every 516. In the last ten years, then, the alarming fact h> proved, that the proportionate number or free blace deaf and demb. and also of blind, has increased 50 pe r cent. No statement as to the insane or idiots is given in the census of 1830. Let its now examine the future increase of free blkeksirt ties States adjoining the ing States, if Teviskii*reannexed to the Union. By the cen sus of 1710hilenumber of free blacks in the State. 010.1 i int New iferk)adjnininz the slaveholding States, was 13,953. In the States (adding New York) adja )lJ/1i! cent to the slavehelding States, the number of free a .blacks, by the census of 1840, was 148.107; being an aggregate inerca,e of nearly eleven tootle in New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana and Illinois. Now, by the census and table above given, the aggre care niim!-rar of free blacks who are deaf and dumb, idintor insane. paupers, or prisons, in the non -' riaveholding States, was '26.342, or one in every six of the whole number. Now if the free black population, altorild increase in the same ratio, in the aggregate, in New York, New Jersey, Pennsvlvanin, Ohio, Ifidiann, anti Illinois, from 1840 to 1890, as it did from 1790 . . ..'.' so 1840, the :segregate free black population in these . „.., ~ -itisibt States would be, in 1790. 1,600,000; in 1865, 840,- ..• :.-1. 1.7 - - NO; in 1863, 400.000; and the aggregate number in c•;.tr, .'• t'easta six States of free blacks, according to the pres- It'k' ~.;:st proportion, would then ha deaf dumb, blind, idiot, or insane, ropers or in prison. would he, in 1890, 286,666; in 1865. 13:1.313; and in 1853, 66,666; being as we h tve:seen.one-sixth of the whole number.

After telling how Mr CLAY reproached Mr Be- CHANAV and other Democratic Senators, the editor gives the following extracts which be thinks explains the paragraph above quoted and which he °ensures us for not copying. "These classes, both agreeing in this, however they ' may . differ on other points of national policy, ' compose so large a majority as to render it itnpossi • hie, were it desirable, (which, said Mr Clay.

Here Mr. Clay emphatically declares himself to be STILL FOR PROTECTION. This is a mast capital explanation of the first par agraph. and proves conclusively what we have charg ed, i. e- that Mr Clay is only in favor of incidental protection and will not consent to give any further encouragement to home industry than maybe derived from the process of raising revenue: According to the Gaiette, Mr Clay, in. September 1111, implored Ctingssea to "preserve Aha Compro mise act inviolate," and not to go beyond it except for the purpose of ix - listing revenue, and we have the same authority that in Match, 1842, he declared that he bad not chonged.his opinion, but was in favor of the ineidenta/ protection that would be afforded by providing the necessary supplies fur the public service. He hopes that no man would object to each protection, and so do we, for be that would desire legs favor for our own workmen than Mr Clay claims in the above extracts, would go far beyond the most ultra nullifiers of the South. We hope the editor of the Gazette will now admit that we have done justice to Mr Clay. We - have given theextract from his speechpf 1841,in which he defends the Compromise act and declares his determination to preserve it inviolate, unless it should be necessary to go te - syond it for - the purpose of raising revenue—not to protect home industry--and we have given what the Gazette considers an explanatory extract from his speech of 1434 e, in which he declares that he has -'not changed bis opinion, but is still for protection, such as can be obtained under actual circumstances," or in plain terms, such as can be obtained by preserving the Compromise act inviolate. • If the editor of the Gazette is not in a dilemma. will he inform the public how Mr CLAT can be still for protection when he desires that the Compromise act should be preserved inviolate, and is unwilling to afford domestic industry any further protection than can be incidentally gi ven by providing necessary supplies for the public service? Mr Denny says that the Compro mise act was the cause o" . all the c anMercial distress that has afflicted the country, and the same gentleman states in the most positive manner that Mr Clay was in..trurriental in affecting its passage. Before the edi tor of the Gazette can convince the public that M Clay is in favor of a protective tariff he must disprove the letters and speeches of Mr Denny, and show that preserving the Compromise act inviolate is all the pro tection that the interests of our me chanics and manu facturers require. TEXAS ANNEXATION The Post, the leading locofoco paper in this city, some time since declared itself opposed to the annexa tion of Texas. This was before it had got its cue from the, knowing. Now, when there is real danger, and when the country is taken by surprise, and stands almost aghast at the pit dug for its ruin by the treache ry of John Tyler, the Post has not a word to say in opposition to the scheme, and is actually publishing a very Inhered defencein favor of annexation, written by Senator Walker. This clearly shows that the Post has changed its ground, and will shortly be found de fending and advocating the scheme.—Gaz ette. The above is from the org in of those fifteen' mason ic whigs' who subscribed V2OO a piece to buy up the Gazette. It is truly modest for a sheet of its mercen ary character to attribute dishonest motives to any of its cotemporaries. How aptly its own language, with slight variation, will apply to the recent course of its editor. Let us try it. The Gazette, the leading co..n paper in this city, some time since, declared itself op posed to Masonry, *airy Clay. and Slavory. This wus before those fifteen 'masonic whigs' subset ibed to the pony purse; but now, when there is real danger that the curse of Slavery will be extended, we find it sup porting a Staveholder and a Mason. The Gazette has changed its ground. It formerly denounced Clay; it is now supporting him. It denounced Masonry—if we are rightly informed, the editor now holds a com mission from the Lodge, and he certainly has a close political and pecuniary fellowship with high adhering masons. It denounced Slavery in every form, and it is now using all its efforts to elect a Slaveholder to the highest office in the gift of the people. This is a sweet ommern to charge the Post with inconsistency. Ouropinions respecting the annexation of Texas are ourown. The question is not one of party principle., but of public policy. Democracy and Whiggery have but little to do with it, and friends and opponents of the measure are to be found imbeds parties. The Guam% pretends to be opposed. to annexation, but what assu. ranee can it give the pubic that it will not change its positioot It is known that fifteen whigs induced it to . perform a complete sonierset in relation .to May, Ma• roar, and Slanery,asid whatguarantee have we that sixteea others; If they would subscribe a sufficient nuns her of reasoas could not make it come out in favor of MMINb annoxatien., We must have souse assurance dnittib.

Ti, shows how little federalists care for the Tariff; unless they have the privilege of using it trim:lke political capital out of. It is manifest to every one that any measure on which tbe citizens of all parties unite, is much more likely to succeed than if it was pushed forward on exclusive party grounds. But the enemas of the Tariff is not what the whip want by connecting that measure with the party politics of the day. They use it as a mere pack horse to carry out other schemes that they dare not advocate boldly, and they would much rather see it lost altogether, than it should be carried without permitting there to turn it to party adwantage. If the gentlemen who have called unseeing for Sat urday are sincere friends of a tariff they will go on with it regardless of the insolent dictation of the Clay leaders who wish to make the manufacturing interests of our city bend to t h e schemes of the author and do. fender of the Compromise act. SENAToa WALK xa thinks that Kentucky ought to be in favor of annexation, in as much as it is a kemp growing State, and Texas would make an excellent hemp market.
