Here sat those whose honored names stand high in the ranks of Literature there those whose families are the leaders in Science and Art On the left hand stands the still young mother with her beautiful daughters whose place has been in palaces and on the right range representatives of that social charm which has made the salons of Paris admired of every land The organization of Ar tistic genius the nature of feminine grace the model of domestic devotedness the type of noblest exaltation of good the conscientious and devoted Catholic the equally conscientious and devoted Pro testant all are here all asking with one voice how they may best promote our cause and can the re sult be other than what 1 have predicted? ion will hear further from these ladies 1 hey are now considering the basis of their Association Their husbands and brothers in many instances wish to unite with the effort Shall the Society be composed like the Societies of a and meeting or like the American An ti SIavery Society of a meeting of Then again shall the Society be elective or shall it be formed upon the common ground as well as upon those universal principles which make the American Anti Slavery Society so strong? What there may be in the state of society in rance to render another course than our own advisable it is for the rench to debate nnd decide I advis ed meanwhile the Constitution of our merican Society as the one best calculated to promote ef ficiency With our rench friends the question is merely one of conveniency and applicability of form as at all events they are auxiliary to the American Anti Slavery Society and in sympathy with Mr Garrison as the chief of the cause on account of his devotedness and excellence of cha racter and the eminent ability be has displayed in originating and conducting the enterprise I wish I had time by this mail to translate for your columns a letter since received from one of the members of our re It would show you how much breadth of mind and bow high an order of intelligence are coming up in aid of the cause One letter received is so short that I can tran scribe ir Madame A rench Abolitionist deeply interest ed in the noble cause to which you and your family are devoted encloses one hundred francs for the American Anti Slavery Society You will probably receive aid for the Bazaar from this source I must not omit however hasty may be my letter to thank you for your introduction to Victor Schcelcher to whom rance owes so much for his eminent services as Secretary of State under the Provisional Government as well as for his previous life of devotedness to the cause He it was who took the initiative in that noble work of immediate ism which Lamartine Arago and the other members of the Provisional Government so decisively adopted and when we hear the advocates of the slaveholder claim compensation and cite the example of rance it is to these men we ow it that her example was so carefully guarded that it can afford no sanction to the disgraceful act of making crime a marketable commodity It was a stun appropriated by govern ment to the Colonial treasury to be used in aid of both proprietor and laborer for effecting the iinnae diate transition to a better order of things with as little suffering as possible It was 1 secour not in it was succour not compensation 1 am now in the midst of English feeling and in terest in

WEBSTER ON THE UNION Under the corner stone of the addition to the Capitol Mr Webster on July 4th deposited a paper in his own handwriting containing the following ex cellentsentence: If therefore it shall be hereafter the will of God that this structure shall fall from its base that its foundations be upturned and the deposit lieneath this stone be brought to the eyes of men be it then known that on this day the Union of the United States of America stands that their Constitution still exists unimpaired and with all its use fulness and glory growing every day stronger and stronger in the affections of the great body of the American people and attracting more and more the admiration of the world' If then the Union this day stands firm it is not to be admitted for an instant that it has had any hard jar or been in any serious danger of any sort for the past five years at least This being the case the Union Committee of Safety and the entire Union party have been engaged in doing business under false pretences and deserve to be exposed and held up to public reprehension The thanks of the coun try are due to Mr Webster fordoing it so hand somely and unsparingly A Tribune One word more and that by way of postscript have alluded to the propriety of some kind of action on the part of the Southern visitors in London We are but few but there are some good men and true Mr

fellow men still held in chains in that land of boasted free dom as well as with the friends of the anti slavery cause throughout America whom we fam cheer on in their arduous struggle on behalf of

to afford every assistance to those noble minded men who are laboring to efface from the national escut cheon so deep and foul a stain Proposed by Win Deeble seconded by armer Lloyd Resolved 3 That these resolutions be advertised in each of the three leading Cork papers as well as in a leading journal in Dublin and London and that the Secretary be directed to take steps to have them published as

to go This is not a negro but a black white college where the sable African the white Caucasian and the yellow mulatto are indiscrimin atelv mimried together in short it is an institution where amalgamation is reduced to practice We' may talk as much as we please about the equality of the races there is not a sane white man who does not revolt at the idea 'The effect of this forced and unnatural equalization and commingling is not to elevate the black but to degrade and degenerate the white It will not make a white man ofthe col ored but it may make a negro of the white Our own opinion moreover is that it damages the black man and retards that moral and intellectual ele vation of which he is in pursuit We think no sen sible negro would send his son to such a college But tins is not the whole of the system developed at this institution In its halls ami recitation rooms are mingled not only white faces and black and all the intermediate hues crispy wool and auburn locks but both sexes In the course of the dsctission on the bill referred to one inemb' informed the House that he had been sending his daughter there to edu cate There is no disputing about tastes but we must confess we do not particularly fancy his Our own observation and experience have led us to the conclusion that the sexes should not be interinin rlml nnr cilleires and academies that literature and science would receive no great impulse in Cam bridge University or Union College by filling the dormitories or halls of those institutions with half and half of each sex But in saying this we do not mean to be understood as opposing the intel lectual elevation and cultivation of woman care not how many female seminaries there are in the land nor how high the course of studies and nliiinr 1 the higher the better dersto male seminarte would I there would demoralizing both It would be bad enough in our estimation to bring together girls and boys young men and wo 1 meiq of 'the same race and color under the same roof in the same hall and at the same table But to mix together the descendants of Ham and Ja pheth the ebony sons of Africa with the fair A 1 a VIA rl I h' Pfl Ters Jie niinnbOuAUi anu Miv boy with thez vet this disertu New York Central College at least it was so charg i 1 pd and not de interesting ass inn nv a roman between different races as well as sexes leading to disappointments or alliances for better or in future lfe notwithstanding experience and physi ognomy have demonstrated that tiie white bood is degenerated while he black is not improved in the hvbrid progeny of amalgamation The design of the Central College if we under stand its plan of education aright is to teach and practically illustrate by reducing theory to practice erfPet 'ennnlitv of races and sexes The white sister is there taught the moral intellectual and so cial equality of her Ethiopian brother the white boy that he is in no respect superior to the negress who is his daily companion And to promote and aid in carrying forward this kind of instruction the Assem bly of New York by a vote of two to one votes an appropriation out of the public treasury! We would have preferred that it should not have been done by a Whig House We hope this kind of education is not to be made a fundamental article in any political creed and that we shall not hereafter be called upon to sanction any resolution of a convention approv ing it We have no objection to any white man sending his children to Hayti to be it is his privilege to do so if he chooses nnd the children themselves do not complain as we think they would have a right to do But we do protest against tne public funds being appropriated to any such off spring of Garrisonism protege of rights conventions mottled conglomerate of insanities and amalgam of abolitionism and socialism as we believe the Central College of New York to be Such an appropriation while it disgraces the State will not tend to raise the character of any legislature that passes it CELEBRATION THE IRE EATERS The fire eaters of South Carolina celebrated the anniversary of the battle of ort Moultrie last week 1 outside the walls of that ort 4 We give the follow ing toasts as a specimen of the sentiments that were expressed on the occasion By II Mazyek The glorious union of Yankee blood and Carolina steel By Shaffer The Palmetto Regiment Though more than half their number found foreign graves in winning for the Union the free soil ter ritory of California there are enough still left to il lustrate other battle fields than those of Mexico By Clapp Co operation The only certain wav for bringing the slaveholding Sates together is for South Carolina to back out They will then beyond question all be in the same box By Perry one ofthe Marshals orvMoul trie Ours in ours again in By Heart The Young Men of Charleston With instinctive patriotism and gallantry they have promptly and effectually repelled an insult to the State to vindicate their claim to a place in the front rank ofthe defenders of her honor and hersov eignty they wait but Opportunity liy II Pinckey The present corrupt Government If it prove a Gordian knot and cannot be untied we will cut it with our swords By Lockwood President illmore May he be the next Mayor of Boston ByA Hertz one of the Committee The sub missionists of like the tories of must be driven from amongst us By Richard Roper ort Moultrie and the United States Army The bulwark of our freedom is per Nerted to shelter our oppressors By II Raymond The day we celebrate!
