Excerpt from Inquiry Into the Causes Which Have Retarded the Accumulation of Wealth and Increase of Population in the Southern States: In Which the Question of Slavery Is Considered in a Politico-Economical Point of View The author would more particularly direct the reader's attention to the second and the following chapters, which embrace those of his Views, which may be regarded as new. The first chapter is merely introductory; and although the facts there stated present a striking View of the subject, they are such as have been frequently brought to the atten tion'of the public.

In the third chapter I have availed myself of the Report of the Secretary of the Treasury to illustrate my theory of the Unproduc tiveness of Slave Property.
