Toombs) has observed, the laws of civilized nations impose temporarily on one of the boldest, hardiest, and most useful classes of all free communities — the merchant seamen. We know the share of sea commerce in the commerce of the world ; we know that where otherwise only barbarism would be, it renders civilization possible ; we know its fos- tering influence on civilization, and how it renders habita- ble, regions which without it must be wastes.

The Southern States, when extraneous pressure ceases to threaten them — but, I fear, not till then — instead of occupy- ing themselves solely with defensive measures, will, no doubt, again turn their attention to the amelioration of the slave's condition, and one of the first laws in this direction ought to be the prohibition of his being sold or hired to any man who has not resided long enough in the South to insure his understanding something of the peculiarities of the negro.
