THE SOUTH AM) TIIK SOl'TJI.

Civilization in the Free and Slave" States. From the Old Guard, Mar. 1SC4. "The poverty of the South." '-The barbarism of the South.' "Wretchedness and demoralization in consequence of playcd on with alacrity and skill by clergyman, politicians, tract distributors, and all sorts of social jugglers, here in the ' North, until all grades iu the commuuitv have adopted the senseless jargon as a couelusion, not only foregone, but foreordained and divine. In this article wc propose to lay the figures and the facts touching this matter, C; 7 plainly before our readers. Wc do not hope that the truth will open the eyes of the victims of the Abolition fanaticism, but it miy possibly s-ave some from following the multitude into the dishonoring, the bloody delusion. Tlic truth is, that negro '"slavery" has 1 ecu a curie to neither .North nor Soiuh, but liir- been a blessing to bcih, as the history and the figures will jfhov. Wc state the question thus plainly, because vc mean to challenge contradiction. It is said that there is su:h a tiling as a man telling a lie until he himEclf believes it tu be a truth. And the j Abolitionists may have repeated their s.:i!iuer.;ai:d lahehoods until they believe them to be true; but their leaders uo not believe them sj implicitly that they dare risk a fair aud public debate upon them. Thev are brave at assertions, dogmatism noi.-e, and wurdv defiance but thev flee ' j within the covert of prejudic Mil rar.ee at ti ;ppro ucli of aijv man who j I'ror.oici to argue the point with them. i Their facts are the inventions of inn-otters. Their logic the yctisofthe howling dervishes. Füol'ih and malieiou?. ! ehold t'nc abomination of their pretentions in the following ftatisticttl records of the twosccj lions vi our country: ! 1. I Sow h:;s the North suiTcrcd hv 1 ticrro lavcrv in ti.e t-outu It has grown rich off of the proceeds of "slavery" 1 ibor. The merchants, the manufacturer., the meciiaüicc. and all classes ol laboring men here i:i tlie North have Leen Immense-j iy benefitted by the i raits of negro "f-lave-l ry-' hi the South. More than two-thirds of ti mercantile, manufaeiunug and mdutrialvi.eraiionsof the North are based upon the "slave" ' labor of the South. Strike down this "clave" labor, and ym sweep out of cxistauce two-thirds j of thc comincivS of th.e United States at a .single blow. Thc United States Treasury tables of lbo'J show that our exports of thai year were $-7S.02,-0S0: of which. -17J:0K,000 were of soutiicrti origin, while 7S.0OO.0U0 oiily wcrc of northern origin. While tho South :rod ice more than two-thirds of thc ox4 j ports of thc country, thc North reaps main ly the commercial advantages arising therefrom.

' wts only I01,5l S tuns: and to eniplov this on 'j'J" " , liiu iti'iiu i ui ii i ii v-i m i y 000,000 worth of freight; the South furnished ?1'4. 000,000 worth. AVhi! thc South furnished six-sevenths of tho freight, dic had less than one sixth of thc tunnagc, thus throwing almost all of thc immense profits of thc carrying business into thc pockets of the North. Thc South has not only keept our ships and merchants but she has also given employment to our mechanics, artisans find laborers. In 1850, wc sold thc South croods for our owu uianufacturc to thc val ue of 8240,000,000. Wc sold them imported goods, which wc paid for abroad by southern exports, SIOG.000,000. Thc interest anl brokerage wc made out of tlic South that year, 603,100,000. Money spent in thc North by southern visitors, tradesmen, tarvclcrs, etc., during year, $53,750.37 1. Making our total business with thc South that year, S4t2,.rjf50,S74. That is thc way wc have suffered by thc South. That is the way the Sörth has wronged us. She has given employment to our merchants, mechanics ami laborers, to such an extent that wc may truly say wc owe our prosperity to her. The production of southern "slave" labor has been the great motive buttery that has driven nearly all the industrial oj orations of the North. The Treasury tables of the United States show that not only our commerce, but thc whole of our industrial interests have kept pace with thc increase of thc "slave" productions of the South. In 1820, when there were only one million five hundred thousand "slaves" producing thc staples of commerce, our tunngc wa only 17,000 tuns; but in 1 856, when thoro Terc over three millions of negroes pro

That is the way "slave j 7 has hurt us. ly the Messing of Al1111 rhty God, may it continue to do for our name respected on every sea. That is what "slavery" has done for the North. Wc know how profanely the Abolitionists will rave at these stern truths. But there stand the facts ;md the figures let them deny them if they dare. 2. Wc are told that "fdavcrv" has impoverished the South itself; and to rcmcdv this evil, wc arc now trying to cut the throat of every white man, woman and child there, and to ive the lands to ncgrocs, :.nd to such people, in the North, as are willing to live on terms of perfect oouality with the negroes. That we may see how "slavery" has impoverished the South, we will take the five old "slave" State;, from Maryland, and intduding Georgia, and compare with the six New Engiaud States, which boast of being possessed of almost all possible advantage over the rest cf mankind. In 1809 these New lhigland States had a population of 2,7:,000. In two hundred years they had according to the census of lSjö'J, accumulated wealth to the amount ofSl.'.on .oia ...i.m. .-.....i.,,-' s.f0fr,. ovvu', ' ' , .' , , with the same population, hud accumulatcü wealth to the amount of Sl,420.!):jO.yy. Thus the tivc "slave" States accumula - ted an aggregate wealth over thc accumu - iaic.1 ucaim oi in. mj ng.auu States of e-UT.övy.wO. If the whole 1 1 . -Pl..

Thc population of all the free States, according to thc census of lS.Vd, was Ju.211,:S0. Thc white population of tho "slave" States was I.:;iL.S70. All the northern States of thirteen million citizens had accumulated Whi'e the population of tlie North was( one hundred and nine per cent greater than the South, it has accumulated riches but sixteen per cent, above the South. So a division of all thc property of the non-slaveholding States, among all their inhabitants equally, would give to each only 8-o3, while thc same division of thc riches of all the "slave" States would give to every white man Slo'J. This ;5 thc way "slavery" has impoverished the white people (f thc South. This is thc "hv-ing game of slavery," of which we have heard so much for a quarter of a century. The census of IS "0 j-hows that the wealth of the "slave" States was about double per capita, to that of the no.: slaveholding State? . What fo.ly, then, what impudence for us here in the North to talk ol the 'dosing game of slavery," with these flgures staring us in the face ! Ö. Wc hear a great deal about the barbuism and wretchedness which "slavery" inflicts upon a family and home in thc South. What say the figures on this subject? Let us take again the six boasting New England States, and compare them with the five old "slave" States, having the same population. It must be conce 1c I that a homo for every family is one of the most desirable blessings tint civilization can bestow. The more complete, or the less mixed this home, thc greater the probabilities of happiness and virtue Now these six New England States had, according to the census, f18,.;- families, while the' had only 1 17,787 dwellings. S that New England had seventy thousand seven hundred and forty-three families without a separate home; while the five "slivc" States containing tho same population, have. 500,708 dwellings. Thus, in New England, one family in every wven is without a home, while- iu the ,fs!avc" St?te,only on? family in every

It is not an easy matter to estimate the rchtivc rehgious merits of a people. Wre can only take the visible evidences of attach - ment or ol indillercncc to religious in-ti-tutions as our guide. Let us again take the six New England States and the fue old "slave" States, aud sec iu which section we find the greatest evidence of a profomd and consistent attachment to the worship of God. Wc are still cruided bv the ceasusofl?59. After two centuries of religious agony New England has erected 4,Gu7 churches, while the five old "slaTc" States with tlie same population have erected 8,0S1 ehurches. The New England church CS accommodate 1,000.SG3 Souls, while the churtiiea in the live "slave ctai.es accommodate 2,893,402 souls So these irreligious '-slave" States have erected double the number of churches. i ... i . , . ... .. . -::a:iuiu,iuu me means oi grace to over a n.ihion more souls than the boasting plrnr- : i,cCs 0f ycW yAV,ani i1:lvo. One-third j (f thc population of New England ! ;s unprovided with any place of worship. i ... , .... . .. .i wlnic thcc -f lave ' States have provide! . churches for a million mire peorde than a i m0t cntireij free from thc innumerable; i.sms which have demoralized and broken i up tlc ehurches in thc North. All such ism, are of Northci n birth, and have never lliaJc aijy headway in the South. Thc Southern cl; .-'jhes have steadily resisted an inese pn iuc ana jorrupuug innovations upon the pure domain cd Christian faith. It is the rarest thin.;- to sec a church split to pieces by .schism. Neither is there, comparatively, any of th: indecent ii i'. . . v i .r i .sectarian violence in the South which has disgraced the very nemo of religion in the North. The ministers of the gospel iu the South as a class, arc, in Christian deportment, and in manly character, far ahead of the clergy, as a class, iu the North. One reason of this, undoubtedly diriMl..,l n,,,l fi.L.r-mt ,., ,v.i,.t, ..4 , , . j . ,., totithern churches. Like pople, lue iniivt." is nu old im ivIi:i Tin l ui.rtj i... l- j , - profane clerical demagogues as IJeeeher, Cheever, Tyng, and Uellows. even leaving out their abolitionism, would not be tolerate I in the South. With all these facts . unuwn 10 us, wuat inioieraoie linpuuence fur ll5 to talk about the '-irreligiou- charactcr of 'Shtvo'-holdcrs !"' 5. We are told that "slavery" has brought demoralization and crime upon the South. Let us have the figures. The ecusiti of 18.VJ suow that the ratio of whites iu the Penitentiary of Virginia, for ten rears, was one to twenty-three th - m - and, wnilo the ratio in Massachusetts State I'iisou was one to seven thousand five hundred and eighty-seven. In the city ot New York, in IS V.). there were 1 ,.:.") con- ' vietions for crime, which was more than iu all the fifteen "slave" States for that year, In the State of New York, in 1S5), there Cow York, in S5 , there ,- - t ivietions lor crtiui. In were 10,-70 couv houtli Carolina, in a poiMilattou more than! one fifth that of New York, there were only forty-six cases of crime. The bills of crime iu Charleston, S. C, for that year were six per cent less than in llostou. The same census discloses the fact that free negroes Sjuth are a great deal less addicle 1 to crime than free negroes North, fn Massachusetts the ratio of free negroes in the State lVts :i, for ten years, was I to 'J50. In the Penitentiary of Virginia it w.is 1 to ."'Idl.

The criminal degradation among the -n whites at the North is frem three; t five times greater than at the South. One reason of this undoubtedly is that extrem poverty is almost uuknowu at the South.
