WADE'S JOB AXD NEWS PRINT IN ft INKS OP THE EST Q.U X1AT At the meeting of the Congregational Union in Brooklyn on Thursday evening, Mr. Theodore Tilton read a letter from act of extraordinary boldness and personal risk. They who ha ve applauded all the rebel murders can have no honest qualms at this. And so far as this show of sentiment may claim to be founded on the English regard for the rules of honorable warfare, or love of fair play, which demands a fair field and a display of courage, we may say tha this assassination is quite as honorable warfare as the furnishing of the protection of neutral territory to secret expeditions against unguarded towns, which, up to this time, British Courts have sustained, or as the fitting out of armed pirates in neutral ports, which has never shocked the ruling British sentiment. Arid when we scrutinize the British expressions on this assassination, we shall find that many regret it as Lord Derby stated it, because it is more a blunder on the part of the South than a crime; and many magnify the event because they fondly hope they are magnifying a disaster to the national cause.

All this show of sentiment cannot obliterate the lesson taught us by the course of the leading foreign powers Xf ew York, May 25. The Times' Washington special says Gen.

The committee reported against it, and said the 5,000 free negroes paid into the treasury of Charleston annually $25,000, and that their property amounted to $1,500,000. Out of that amount of property $300,000 worth of it was composed of slaves. That the 9,000 free negroes of New Orleans in I860, were worth as much per capita as the white population of Louisiana; and these negroes had their own their own benevolent societies, These facts, he contended, proved that the free negro was capable of taking care of himself.
