"ubii.slied by order ofthe Society. In regard to the management of slave oper¬ atives on the planlalion, the views of Col. Taylor, were just such as mighl have been expected from the enlightened I'lanier and  i'liiiantliropist.
Humane and kind treatment, coni- liiiied will) consislcnt and vbolosonie discijiljue, he proved conclusively, were even, in the very lovvcst consideraiion the hi.s.l iHtliiy.j C'f ibe pl,;i)ier, aii.l deci¬ dedly advantageous in a pecuniar}' point of view.

In speaking ofthe embarrassmenis of planler,s, he says, in order lo get out of debt and keep out, " n:e mxtst pbini more and spiyiid less;" that is, we ihnst atfttid mm Mo our jiianting interes's and less to plea- :re aud travel. ]f every planter vyould act upon this maxim, in five years lime, tiiose wlio are now " heels over head" in debt would be able to stand o'- firm ground, and see their way clear. J3ut it is a lamentable faci, that most of our plauterc. are more theoretical and visiona¬ ry than practical and successful ; and so- long as this is the case, ihcy may look for short crops and embarrassmenis.
