WALKER, OF MISSISSIPPI, RZLATITI TO Tali ANNEXATION OF TEXAS, J e reply to the call of the People of Carrot Coun subjty, Kentucky, to communicate his vim, oss that ect. [coaTipr trim.] It was in view, no doubt, ofthese Awes, that Mr Da vis of New York, declared, upon the Boer of Congress, on the 29th December, 1843, that "the abolition of slavery in the southern States must be foil*, ad by a deluge of black population to toe Nora, filling our jet7s and poor hoxaes& bringingdesentegow upon he, laboring portion of the people." Duncan, also of Cincinnati, Ohio, in his speech in k ogress he the' 6th January , 1844, declared the meek of abortion would be to inundate the North with free blacks, des a by him as "paupers, beggars, thieved, assassins desperadoes, all, or nearly all. penniless end des / i titutte without skill, meens,iednatry or ce to 'obtain a livelihood; each possessing a cherishing ne venge fur supposed or real wrongs. No teen's fireside, person, family or property, would be safe by day or night. It now requires the whole energies of the law and the whole vigilance of the polies of all ourprinc , pal eldest° restrain and keep in subordination the few stregglinefree negroee which now infest them." If such be the case now, what will be the cue when, by abolition, gradual or immediate , the numbee of these free negroes shall be doubled and quadrupled, and deouplecl, in the more northern of the slavelto !ding States,before slavery had receded from their Ilmits,and nearly the whole of which free black population would be thrown on the adjacent non-davehokling Stated Much, if not all of this great evil, 'rid be prevented by the rsannexation ef Texas. Since the purchase of Louisiana and Florida, and the settlement of Alabama and Mississippi, there have been carried into this re gion as the census demonstrates, from the states of' Delaware, Maryland, Virginia and Kentucky, half" a million of slaves, including their descendants, that otherwise would now be within the limits ef those four States. Such has been the result as to have diminish ed, in two of these States nearest to the Noah, the number elf their slaves far below what they were at the census of 1790, and to hare reduced them at the census of 1840, in Delaware, to the small number of 2,605. Now ' we if double the rafter diminution,as we certainly will by the reannexation. of Texas, slavery will disappear from' Delaware in 10 years, (tom Mary land in twenty, and havegready clintinishea in Virgi nia and Kentucky. As, then, by reannexation, slavery advances in Texas, it must recede to the carne extent from the more northern of the slavehulding States; and consequently the evil to northern States, from th e ex-, pulim sion into them of free blacks, by abolition, gradual, or mediate, would thereby he greatly mitigated, if not entirely prevented. In the District of Columbia, by the drain to the new States and Territoriee oldie South and Seuthw - est, the slave* have been minced from 6,119, in 1830, to 4,664 in 1840 and if, by the , nsanexation, slavery receded in a double ratio, then it would disappear altogether from the District in twelve 'yaws; and that question, which now occupies so much of the time of Congress, and threatens so seriously the harmony, if not the existence of the union, would be put at rest by the reannexation of Texas. This re anaeution, then, would only change the locality' of the slaves, and (litho shiveholding States, without aug menting their number. And is Texas to be lost to the Union, not by the question of the existence of slavery, but locality only' If slavery be considered by the states of the North as an evil, why should they prefer that its location should be continued in states on their bon. der, rather than in the more distant portions of the 1.. ion. It is clear that, as slavery advanced in Texas, is would recede from the states bordering on the free I states of the North and West: and thus they would be released from actuil contact with what they consider an evil, and also from all influx from those states of a large and constantly augmenting free black population. As regards the slaves, the African being from a tropi cal climate, and from the region of the burning sands and sun, his comfort and condition would be greatly imenwed, by a transfer from rorthern latitudes to the genial and most salubrious climate of Texas. There he would never sail- from that exposure to cold and -. frost, whit& be reels somuch more severely than an 2. y '' A other race; and there, also, from the great fertility of the 7,11 soil, and exuberance of.its products, his iiisiply of 'I/ food would be abundant. If a desire to intercom the "''3 condition and increase the comforts of the slaves re-, .. ally animate the antidlavery party, they, would-be the warmest advocates ofthe reannexation of T, xas. Nor can it be disguised that, by the reannexatien, as the number offree blacks augmented in the sliveholding „We° States, they would be ditrused gradually through Tex- i as into Mexico, and Central and Southern Ametica, wherenine-tenths of their population are already of the cohered races, and where, from their vast prepon derance in number, they are nut a degraded caste, but on a footing, not merely of legal, but what is far more important, of earns! equality with the rest of the pop- elation. Here, then, if Texas is reannexed through. out the vast region and salubrious and delicious , ell- mato of Mexico, and of Central and Southern Amer. ica, a large and rapidly increasing portion of the Afri ~ can race will disappear from the limits of the Union, The process will be gradual and r,ogressive, without a shock, and without a convulsion; whereas, by the loss of Texns, and the imprisonment oldie black population of the Union within its present limits, slavery would sn crease in nearly a II the a laveholdi ng stabss,and a change in their condition would become impossible; or if it did take place by sudden or gradual abolition, the result would as certainly be the sudden or gradual introduction :.c... of hundreds of thousands of free blacks Into the Stater ~ of the North; and if their condition there is already du- ..,...... Notable, how would it be when their number there is augmented tenfold. and the burden become intolem able? Then,indeed, by the loss °Ale markets of Tea. ' • as--by the taxation imposed by an immense free black population, depressing the value of all property—then, also, from the competition fur employment of the free ' .-.. black with the white !abater of the North---his wages would be reduced until they would fall to ten or twenty --.: cents a day, and starvation and misery would be fame doted among the white laboring population. There is but one way in which the North can escape these evils; and that is the reannexation of Texas, which is the only safety...valve far the whole Union, and the only • practicable outlet fur the African population, through Texas, into Mexico and Contra/ Southern America.-;- There is-a congenial climate for the African rece.-- ....
