It is dangerous to your (riouds—unmaoly aud ungoldiery in the extreme. Before a city is fired upon it is the duty of the command: ing oflicer to give hts adversary rensouable notice to re- move the women, children and nou-combatauts, Steam- boats always have more or less of this class of people on board. A single shot may destroy a steamboat with ail its passengers. How much stronger, then, the renson not to fire upon it untii a like notice is served ?

NEGRO SLAVERY. 1am asked if Mr. Lincoln's emancipation proclamation will stand. if you continue the struggle, certainly. He has the physical force at bis disposal to carry it out. If you cease how, you may savo all ia your hands, or com Promiso on the hel tig ee But pastas se you, ‘negro no longer stand in the gay of the happiness ty of friends and kindred. ” The changes of sentiment upon this question in the South have been curious. Not many years since it was by no means unusual for the press and Public mon, as well as for the people generaily iu the South, to concede that slavery was an evil, and rogret that if shoutd ever have existed; expressing, however, no disposition or desire to be rid of it. Yet.a few veara more—the demand for cotton having increased, the price of negroes having advanced, and the agitation the Slavery question having increased in viruicnce—fnds us defending slavery as a divine institution. DeBow's Ke- view, ani hor Southern papera and periodicals, with Senator Hammond, of South Carolina, were prominent im this defence, ‘Their object was to educate the Southern mind to this belief. Such a course had become vital to the existences of slavery; because, to con- cede that negro slavery was morally wrong, was virtually to conceds the whole argument to theadslitionists. As tho controversy warmed we became sensitive. And so morbidly $0 that the North might have threatened with impunity to deprive us of horses or other property, yet the whole South would bo ablaze if some fanatic took one negro. Such was the public sentiment South at the com- mencement of this most unfortunate and bloody struggio, But revolutions shake upfmen’s thoughts and put them in diferent channels. 1 have recently talked with Sonth- era alaveholdera from every State, They are tired of negro slavery, and believe they conid make moro clear money’ and live more peaceably with- out than with it. As for tho non-slaveholder of the South, | honestly thought the baie. ‘was for him more than for his wealtny ceighbor. it to free the negro would reduce to comparative slavery the poor white man, I now rogret that, instead of a war to sustain slavery, bad not been a struggic at the ballot box to colonize ‘it. ‘This will clearly be the next struggle. 1am of opinion that, whether it is a divine institution or not, negro sl avery tins ‘accomplished its mission here A groat mission it had. A now and fertile country nad been discovered and must be made useful. The neces site sof mankind pressed for its speedy develop. ment, Negro slavery was the instrument to effect this. It alone could open up tho foriile and miasmatic regions of the South, solving the Probiem of their utility, which no theorist could have reached, It was tho magician which suddenly revotu- tionized the commerce of the world by the solntion of this problem. it peoplod and made opulent the barren hilis of New England. and threw its poworful influence across the great Northwest. Standing as a wail between the two sections, it caught and rolled northward the wealih and population of the Old World; and held in their places the restlces adventurers of Now England, or turned them along the great prairies and valleys of’ the West. Thus New Engiand reached its climax, and the Northwest was overgrown of its age, while the South, with ite negro laborers, was sparsely ‘sottied And comparatively poor, Thus slavery had done its at most for New England and the Northwest, and was @ woight pon the South. If, at this point, its disappea ance could have clearly commenced, what) unteld suffer ing aud sorrow might have beew avoided, Its existence had hecome incompatible with the oxist- ence of the goverument. For, while it had stood asa wail, doming np the current and holding back the people ‘and lavorera of the North, it had, by thus pre- clnding froe intercovrse Detween the sections, pro duced “& marked change tn their manuers, customs and sectiments, And the two sections were grow ‘This wall of the govern- game which was to tog more divorgent overy day must give way, T question, diviced, and pegro slavory established forever.
