Immorality begets immorality. The burning soil of the South devours the laborer, who can only live there about seven years upon an average. The consumption exceeds the supply, and slavery might die out for want of the raw material; but in the border states, rejoicing in the "peculiar institution " there are good fathers of families, prudently intent upon establishing theil sods and endowing their daughters. These men will originate the ingenious idea of profiting by the mildness of a temperate ...climate to breed up human cattle on a large scale. Thee prudeut men will seek out well-proportioned brood negresses who will produce first-class stock which they wdl subsequently dispose of further South at high rates. Sire, I congratulate you upon this stroke of genius : you have invented a new sort of conscription. You may say, as another king once said : "1 have so many men to spend upon my battle-field. " But the breeding district will not suffice to supply the slave-market ; something more will be required, and despite the law, despite the penalty ot death provided by the law for the slaver captain, ' the Southron will bold- ly keep up the slave trade in the open light of day.
