They despair of sectional friendship or national peace, until the teeming cause of mortal hatred and civil war is rooted out for ever. Have we the means of paying loyal slave-owners a fair price for their slaves ? If we act now, be- fore a protracted contest has exhausted our re- sources, yes. If we wait the termination of a three or four years' war, very certainly, no. In that price deportation must not be estimated. The South asserts that negro slaves are indispen- sable to her. That is only ...so far true, that she does absolutely need hired negro workmen, and ought not to be deprived of them. Her agricul- ture would, for a time, be ruined without them. But no good man desires a settlement under which any section of our country would be even temporarily ruined. Nor can it be doubted that the South, however strong her prejudices and traditions in favor of owning her laborers, has herself been brought, by the perils of the hour, to think seriously of a change of system as the only means left her to obtain aid and comfort from Europe.
