The Yazoo (Miss.) Democrat, an Administration organ, says:—`The only practical means of perpetuating our present system of labor, is by importing Africans;' and adds, `If the South believes that her necessities demand more labor, and she has not the courage to procure that labor at any hazard, then let her perish as ignominionsly [sic] as her cowardice deserves.' [Douglas Monthly, July 1, 1859 - Submitted by Candi H.]
