Hear The Whig Slaveholders!

Those Northern men who are iucrerfuloua in respect to the statement of Liberly men na to the ascendency of the Slavb Power, ars ijeftpëcjfuity'invitëdtö read the follwing extract f rom the CnarJeston Courier of October 30, Iu44- one of tho ablest whig papers of the South. lt is a thorougli anti-slavery document, emaiialing from the seat of slaveboiuiog .iristocracy : "Fartfoêjmurë, so long as the vo!e of tha South shall be wotlü what it h ïW'the Preeidential game, and especiaüy bo long as tho slavehoiding mterests ehall enjoy the equaüty' that it now does, or any approximation lo it, in the Seonte of the Union, it ia little short of absurd lo imagine that polilical abolitioniani can ucquire any sort of importouce. Any candidate for the pasuJency, who should be inaanè' enoogh to plant himself on abolition gröund in.the canvass, would band the South in rolid phalanx as one tnan against him, and ringr tha dcaih knel! of hia hopes. The ünited Soutl), with but a respectcble party at the Nortb, can always bestow the Presidency on the object of its choice and the repreeenlativa of ils principies. Our past experiépc too, has Bhovvn that the weiffhtof the Soulhhas been Leavily feit in tlie politieel balance, and has alraost aU waj's monopolized hiorli federal office.

Agnin of the six eouthern Presidente, five weie re elected lo their high officp, and each' eccupied t for eight years, and only one, the present incumbent, will have occupied jt but four years, giyiflg in all lo the Blaveholdingf interest the posseslon and control of thé" presidency ïorforty-fourycaTs out ofjlfty-siti whileof Lhe four sluveholü'mg Presidents three occupied tjc Presidency but four yeara' each, and one, (he lumenled Harrison, only a" little month, giving n all to the non-slaveholding interest, ihe possession and control of the presidency for only iwelve years out of fifly six.
