Ved@ress you a letter this evening on the subject which now agitates the people from one extremity of ‘Whe Union to the other. The slavery question is, in ‘Met, now o question of “the continued existence of “the ‘federal Union,” or “‘disunton” I address this ‘Wetter to you, sir. breause | am aware that your journal, ‘the New York Herald, bas the most extensive clrou. Tatton of any paper in the States, and I think there is ‘= sad went of information in the free States, as to the Real feelings of the South, at a crisis like the present. pepers of the'North that have any circulation, ly to conceal from their readers the abso- threatening danger to the Union, which is daily and hourly more concentrated and fixed 4m a pertioular section of the Union. Like the leading -whig organ in this city, they seem desirous to con- ‘vince the North that there is no danger, and that they ay continue and inerease their aggressions upo Southern rights, without fear of a separation. To give ferce to such deceptive views, they publish what pur- ports to be “the opinions of the Southern press in favor of the Union,” opinions which are taken from (Papers which have less influence than any other in the South. But this isno time for trifling. It is e crisis “upon which bangs the destiny of this federal Union of thirty States, now equally divided into fifteen free States and fifteen States that tolerate African slavery. In a union, there thirty States have reached a piteh of greatners which no former republic has ever achieved. Jf tt continues, imagination alone can compass the bounds of these United States in the future. The ac- quisition of California bas brought on this crisis, its mportsuce to the Union can easily be foresee! It ‘Das already revolutionized and changed the course of trade on this continent. and will do so throughout the ‘world, The possession of @ country like California, to with its vast, untold wealth, has given an impet -commerce, which will make the federal Unien the o tre of the wealth and commerce of the world. It can- not be otherwise. But the possession of California hee raised a question, which, unless satisfactorily settled, «must destroy the grand prestige of our fature great- ness aa one people, cause the great sections of the Union to separate, sever the States into smaller sec- tions, throw all into anarchy, confusion, and civil war, destroy the brilliant destiny before the Union, and ‘blast the prospects of millions of the huimaa race. That California, a country scarcely known a few years einee, but now of so much importance, should thave worked so great a change as she has done, is almort a miracle, even for this a, She has inex- ‘haustible mines of mineral wealth, which will purchase the products of every other nation, and supply all her other wants, She is independent of these States. She is more important to them than they to her; and this fect will undoubtedly cause her to be admitted into the ‘Union at this session, The question of her admission’ with a constitution excluding slavery, is fraught with the most dangerous conseq es to the Union. The South are determined not to lore their equality and power im the Senate of the United States. It is the only sure guarantee tiey bave left them that Coagreas shall not pass laws subversive of the institutions of the South. They know shat if California is admitted as a ‘Btate, New Mexico usd Deseret will follow in after her, and be free States also. The South will meet the danger at the outet, and oppose the admission of Calitornia to the utmost. If California be admitted, the Union is in da: sf, for the South will secede, and what © th ean stop them ff they see fit to do so? ‘The trade ef California has become of immense importance to the North, ey its advantages have, as yet, scaresly begua to developed agg | the and, ere ‘team trade with Califcenia is enormous; P| G if it contiave bo exist.

What will harmonize the interests of the Gifferent sections, allay this fearful exoirement, and cement the Union more firmly for the rest of this cen tury and for all time to come!
