YES ; by all means let us study the leseon of the " large and influential" meeting held in New York on the 19th of December, under the banner of " Justice to the South." Let us see what passages were moat cheered in the speakers' orations, and then ask what the slavery of the South is doing for the reason, morality, and religion of the Northern States of the Unieo. Mr. Baooas, the Int speaker, defended the existence of involuntary servitude by its practice in the Boman Empire at the Christian era, " uncondemned by the Founder of Christianity "or tits apostles," and by the fact that ABRAHAM, ISAAC, and JACOB are all represented to have been owners of slave property. "The Bible nowhere con " deans Slavery ; the Bible, then, is not in conflict " with the Constitution." Mr. O'Coxsoa, who fol lowed, raid : As • whits nation we ramie our Constitution, sad we mete our Myra, resting political rights in that race, the while American people. Tim Negro we left, au Leg as Hie our nubby in which be head should be pleated to order, Is the oesdierin of • bondman. (Appian's.) Now, emodomim, to that condition the Negro is 'envied by nature. (" Bravo!" afflatus, and "That's so:") lie hut strength, mad lo pewit to tabour; but Um Aston which created the win denied him both the intellect to gown and the willing. nor to work. (Applause.) Both were denied him—lmesh wen denied him. And that nature which dagriesd his of will to labour gars him a maw to comas that will, and to make Situ • useful errand in the oboe is which be was capaLle of tieing, herb too himself and fur the master who igorsrsei him. I main tain th.t it is nut lejustice w leave the Negro la Me position In %Lich ammo placed him, to give hint • water to govern him . . nor to it depriviniz hem of say of his rights to compel him to tabour in return, and afford to that master • just ,mnpenration fur the labour Lod talent employed la governing him and rendering him useful to himself and tie the society In wbiA be Lye*. . . . We are not to talk about slavery being an evil ; . . . we are to look at It by the yoke of iespiroion which is to be fend in the sacred velanie, and which nowhere condemns the bondage of Mess orbs are naturally dt fur boodoio. Such were the antic:petite and doctrines which we an told by an English journalist Ina, be taken ea a fair sample of prevailing thought in the Free States of the Union. If the truth were so, it would be the moat conclusive evidence of the power of a national sin persisted in to ruin the heart and mind of • nation. In his newest poem Mr. TRINTSON describe* one, Who, cover naming God, ese•pt for pis, So never took that awful name la vain ; With ell his wissaisnes and one eye askew, 8o false, be partly to, k himself for tins. No greater calamity could befall the Anglo-Baum sass than that its religion should be poisoned at its very fountain—the Bible. Yet, here in the weed espial of that race, men are found who bays imnsumeled themselves that it is no sin—not contrary to the Bible—for cue Christian to hold another in band age. We are not going to plead for troths to which the consciontness of all Christendom bears witness. The language of lihisikS and O'Cossos is that of men who are jastly given over to believe a lie. They have, we mutt bupp..4., convinced themselves that if they ware black nien it would be quits right, sad is the eye of their Maker doing to others as they would men should do to them, if some whits persons taking advantage of the weakness of barbarism, were to deprive them of liberty and work them at Weasure, against their own will. We see now what kind of revenge slavery takes on thus communities which, instead of employin g ths gifts with which they have been entrusted for this geed sf their less favoured fellow-men, iatslket to oppress them as bondage. Is the South, alai CUE •!ifacYo FRCP by social corruption ; in the 1, with all deoeivableness of unrighteousneas to pervert the very words of eternal life. The pia who talk thus may for a moment believe UM the sera has been lett by his Creator without intellect and will, although a misgiving is suggested by the frantic repetition,' both were denied him, " both were denied him !" Bat in the South they do not make these stupid assertions. They know there that the negro, denied every social right and lobbed even of himself, has divine affinities and capacities. Know it! to be sure they do, for they have found the money value of the fact. It is not uncommon ate slave auction to recommend a negro to buyers as " a capital local preacher, with an ex. " cellent gift in prayer." The Baglishroossess in America, in her little volume, " The Aspects of " Religion in the United States," relates that on a Torrent occasion, when a slave was put up, his obvious industrial qualities commanded bidding* from 1,000 to 1,200 dollars. The auctioneer then proceeded to stimulate competition by setting forth his spiritual condition. "He was con " verted four years ago ; he's as good as a preacher " among your cattle." The price advanced to 1,250, 1,300, 1,400 dollars. " He's got the Holy Spirit; " he can pray, and sing, and preach; he keeps all " the commandments; he can preach like the bishop " himself." By there representations his value was enhanoed to 1,860 dollars, or 3851.-2601. for the negro and 1351. for Christian character and motives. The Times tells as that " there can be no doubt " these s., the views of BRooxe and O'CONNOR) " are the prevailing views even in the Free States of " Americo." Then let the Timer explain what it is that has produced this great crisis, what makes Mr. EVERITT proclaim his apprehensions for the future of the Union; what has brought Ame rican affairs to a dead-lock? If, as the Tinter says, the remarks of Mr. O'CoNsoß are but a fair sample of what Americans think and say, and that slavery has been adopted as a creed by the mass of the Anierioans, why is the South in permanent fear for its peculiar institutions, and why does the ques tion of slavery so evenly divide even the Congress? A plain answer to these inquiries would be the most extraordinary thing the Timm has printed for many a day. Every letter from New York which our con temporary publishes bears witness against the state- men ts now made In its editori►l columns. The truth is, that, as Mr. Coss; of Alabama, said, in Conroe., " the real cense of the agitation is that it " is held in the North' that property in man U a crime.'" " Thus oonscienee doth Make cowards of us aIL" There is no prevalent delusion in truth on the 'abject of slavery, bat a factitious party necessity drives a few men to fanatical defences of the institu tion. The meeting at New York as much shows that the citizens of that State approve of slavery as a recent meeting at the London Tavern proves that ths City of London is in favour of protection to native shipping. Ex-Presidents FlLLuoar and Pierce, whose muse are quoted as approving of what we. said, were not there, and have at no time idestified themselves with the hideous doctrines of Bonen and O'Costson. The adhesions they for warded were to the document expressing attach meet to the Union, and condemnation of aboli tionist excesses. Bat if Presidents are ap pealed to, which of them has better claims to be heard than the illustrious Jarressos ? Let hits then speak: " When arguing for ourselves " we lay it down as fundamental, that laws to be " just must give a reciprocation of right; that with " out these they are mere arbitrary rule', founded in " force, not in conscience ; and it is a problem which " I give the muter to solve, whether the religions " precepts against the violation of property were " not framed for him as well as his slave P and " whether the slave may not as justifiably tales a " little from one who has taken all from him as he "may slay one who would slay him ?" That there should be any Englishmen ready to send from this country encouragements to the man , stealer to harden himself in hie crimes!

The Pays says it has no reason to think that the adjournment of the congress is indefinite, although it is not yet known what may be the " probable epoch " of its convocation. The Constitutionnel publishes the third and, I presume, the concluding letter of "A Catholic Journalist "to the Bishop of Orleans. It is signed like its predecessors, "Pour extrait, Emile Ferriere ;" but at the end there appears the following decidedly funny paragraph P.B.—Several liens!, have indulged in all sorts of con jootares beaten the lotion published in the Closstitutionosi he answer to Konordeneur the Bishop of Orleans were Wood "Pour extra., B. Perriare." Our contemporarke might have divined the antimsat of reserve and nepeolful modesty which Wooed us to suppreas our name In a controversy with a bishop of Francs; but since we would not have this two on our part construed as • fear of roopsesitility, tra now without hesitation lay claim to our own work. A. QW!DOUtLLOT. M. Grandguillot, therefore, is the confessed and responsible author of these letters. His courage in coming forward to claim them is all the greater be cause the Preen, which, in common with many other journals, thought at first that the :authorship of the celebrated pamphlet and that of the letters was identical, came afterwards to a different con clusion, on the ground of a certain manifest infe riority which M. Nefftzer fancied he could detect in the latter. M. Grandguillot, however, attributes somewhat extraordinary powers of divination to his brethren of the press, when he reproaches them for not guessing that a reciacteur in chief, who noto riously owes his position to high government ' influence, should, while the law requires every poli tical article to be signed with the name of the true author, write leaders in his own journal under a false signature. Primo facie that was certainly a very unlikely thing to happen. It is a flagrant breach of the law. The law, it is true, is broken every day ; and, on account of the absurdity of the law, and the manifest impossibility of ascertaining who is the " true author" of an article when one man chooses to give his composition to be signed by another, the government dues not inquire too curiously whether the names" Boniface" or " Grand gnillot," which may stand at the bottom of any per. denier manifesto, represent other brains than those of the ostensible writers. This is the first time, however, that an editor of a newspaper has fur nished palpable evidence against himself in regard to the law of signatures ; but M.Grandgnillot being a privileged person, the fact will doubtless escape official notice. A new circular of M. Billault to the prefects reminds them that they have lately been urged to " wage incessant war upon useless writings." The minister does not allude, as one might fancy, on a hasty reading, to books, and pamphlets, and news papers, which would run a risk of utter annihila tion if the government were to constitute itself a judge of their usefulness; he refers to the multipli cation of letters and reports in government offices. He wishes to do away with written records, proces verbattz of an infinity of trivial affairs which mul tiply paperatars and distract the attention of the higher functionaries of government, who are often condemned to peruse them. M. Billault's perse vering efforts as a reformer in this field are highly praiseworthy, and one can only hope with himself that they will lead to a " practical result."

The officials of the Octroi have taken possession of the porta established in the new aniosare et Paris, now, like indent Thebes, become the City of the Hundred Oates. Under Louis XV., Paris had already considerably locrosesd, end some neighbouring villages were added to it, among arises that of the Hoak, which wee made • suburb of the city. In 1784, under Loafs XVI., the farmers-general re wired perralwion to surround the capital with • wall which is warty We seem se that now existing, bat which will soon disappear. et that period the hurter gates were almost all of wood, end the °Sloss small wooden houses, pieced on wheel; for the aonvesienee of locomotion. The barriers were sixty in number, classed in three divisions—north, south, and east. The new enclosure of Paris, with its 100 gates, its deep ditches, and its green slopes, will better respond to the gran deur cf the city than the wall by which it hie bees hitherto surrounded. en immense number of Pertain's did net low the chants of profiting by the change in the barriers. Daring the afternoon and evening of the day before the alteration was affected, they flocked outside the old barriers ' and made purchases ut every kind, and for some hour, beta,, midnight all the barriers were crowded with vehicles end foot passengers waiting for the moment when they might pass through without being stopped. When midnight struck, the barrier gate. were thrown open, the Octroi men retired, and the whole body entered Paris and proceeded in their respective destinations, happy at having thus effected some saving, though at the con of considerable trouble. THE POPE AND THE CONGREBB.—The Corriere Mercantile says :—" The paropblet oa the Pope sad the Congress has laid Its finger on the sore point of Roman society. It la precisely the moderate language of the pamphlet that has most exasperated the clergy. In fact, this moderation attests the author's conviction, and not only that, but his conviction aleo that the remedy he proposss will be accepted. The illustrious Georgie, proposes that Rome ahall be made neutral; M.IIIIIiWO d'Ateglio, in lila late pamphlet, proposes that the Pope shall reign over Route, declared a free city. The memoir of Count Aldial, %ad she ver bal note communicated by Count Caesar to Count Waloweld sad Lord Clarendon, on the 27th of May, 1868, oostaio the germ of this solution. The speeches delivered in oar elective chamber. in the month of Kay, 1866, partook of the Caine views.

A seaman named William Lorenzen, 18 years of age, attended before the stipendiary magistrate at the Hull pohmeciourt on Monday, and made the following deposition ups oath : " 1 am a seaman on board the Dutch schooner She arrived in Hull three or four weeks ago, from Momenta. She sailed from that poet to Hull; she sailed from Malta to Trieste, and thence to Marseilles. They had on board one able seaman, two ordinary seamen, the cook, the name, and master. The cook's name was 2frite Law man, and be was shipped at Hamburg. His age was 18. He bad never been to sea before, and the day after he left HIM. burg be wu rent aloft to furl one of the sails. He was very mach frightened, and only partly did the work. When he came down on the deck the captain and the mate beat the lad. On that occasion he got ten babes with a rope's sad. Whenever Lusatia could not work be was beaten, and the captain and mote had a violent hatred against him after the first beating. He was beaten a day or two after the first time became he could not remem ber the names of the different ropes. On that occasion he got 20 Lams with a cane. He called out terribly, and there were marks all over him. The captain and mate beat him essay times afterwards. Oa the last day he was beaten he got 80 lashes, bat the captain threatened to give him 160 lashes . The day before he died he wee not beaten; bat they tied hts head between We legs. They then put a piece of wood behind his nook, and another behind his knees, then tied both pieces of wood together, having Brat made the deceased bend double. In this state they threw him about the deck, and the mate threw chains upon him. On ten or twelve different days he was treated in this way, some times twioe a day, remaining so tied for half an hour, and sometimes for an hour. The captain also made him drink urine:, but this the witness did not see. The captain hungered the deceased. When he was tied up, and the chains were upon him, he cried out that he could not breathe, and could endure ano longer. The day before he died the chaise were upon him for half an hour—from the time he was tied up to the time he was liberated. He was tied up at half-past flu, and at midnight he wee ordered to go to the pug. Whets be got hold of the pump be fell doirn sad Lever e again. He died about ten o'clock the next morning. That was en the 13th of August, and the used wee off a small island haunts& to Sicily. In the evening, when the sun went down, deceased was thrown overboard in his ele epics clothes. There were marks all over the body, exoept the chest. Than were also many small holes and wounds. The body was coloured red and blue. About four week' before demised died on one day he got first 10 lashes, then WI, then 40, sad thee 80. The tare of deceased was swollen with blows that be could not be recogniud. Some times he bad to take off his clothes, and receive lashes on the bare skin." 11ieiiinish consul and the oollector of endows at Hull were corresponded with by the magherate, and the case is to be further inquired into. Dd4Tll OP A MEDIaIL PBACTITIONZA FROM CHLOBOIYARY. A most painful excitement was produced in Allot on Sabbath lest, on its becoming known that Dr. Renwick hod died during the forenoon whfte under the influence of chloroform. The following ere the particulars of this dia treseisg °see :—lt appears that the demand had bust suffer ing lately from the nail of his great toe having grown into the flesh ; and on Saturday afternoon he had spoken to on. of his profeesiooal breturen, Dr. Duncanson, to come on the forenoon of the following day and cut away the nail. Being en operation of a somewhat painful nature he stated that it was his Mutation to take chloroform, whereupon Dr. Dowses= suggested that another medical man should be called in to waist ; but this he objected to, *Wag that his brother-in-law, who was coming from Edin burgh to spend the New Year with him, would be pre seat, ani would do quite well. On Sabbath morning, there fore, Dr. D91201111P013 attended, and found hie friend in ex cellent spirits, and still resolved to take chloroform, to which course he made no further objection, having administered it to him on a previous occasion without any bad multi. Having made some übserratioes as to how he wished the operation to be performed, and charged the operator to be sure not to begin until he was perfectly Insensible, a little of the chloroform was poured upon a towel, and he held it to his mouth with his own bands. After a while, as it did sot seem to be taking any effect, he asked for some more, which Dr. Demeans at first declined to give; but after a while, finding that no effect was being produced, tome more wee applied. Observing that be was en deavoring to beaten its effect by strained inepirs lions, he was asked to breath naturally, which be did. As it still, however, seemed to be having no effect, another small quantity, at his own request, to applied to the towel, which atter a short tines produced in and his pulse being found fall and regular the operation, which did not occupy more than a minute or two, was suocessfufty performed. He still remained under the influence of the anseatbetic, bat his breathing was tender, and all wee considered right. Some cold water was then thrown on his face to arouse him; but this not having the desired effect other measures were resorted to, but with a hke unfortunate result ; end when, after a few minutes, his breathing became ler frequent end more laboured, and the appearance of his countenanoe began to change, and his pulse had Dooms nearly imperceptible, serious alarm was felt. Artificial respiration by the modem method was resorted to, and in this manner breathing was kept up fur nearly Itali an-hour, but his spirit bed pained away. Dr. Renwick was in his 27th year. He was a native of Mueselburgh, and came to Alloa about six years ago, where hba professional skill, combined with his urbanity of manner, speedily gained him an extensive prectioe, and the esteem of all who knew him. Sixteen months ago be was married to the eldest daughter of Robert Roos, Req., brewer, Cambia, who lives to mourn his logs. The melancholy event, which has cast • deep gloom over the district, wee referred to by all the ministers of the town in their afternoon services, and the Rev. M. M.Dowall, of whose church the deceased was a member, made it the subject of some solemn and impreenve remarks. Some time ago Dr. Renwick was troubled with a severe pain over the region of the heart, which caused him some alarm ; and it appear,. that his father died suddenly of bout demises. It is probable, therefore that this may have had something to do with his death. It is • *brass coin cidence that some time ego, as some of our seeders way re member, a gentleman (lied in Glievan while undergoing a similar operation under the influence of ehlurotorm.—NottA driiisii.Deily Mail. THE dOOIDENT ON THE EdATIEN COUNTIES RAIL WA!. Mr. F.

All went well until our train arrived at the point run es to the Eastern Commis' numb line.

The engine that did this mischief bad, by the time we got oat on the line, buried itself some feet in the embankment on the down side. I can obtain no information as to the number injured, although I am sure there must be many. I Melted the Neese of the ac cident to-day, and found a number of men engaged in die ging this huge engine out of the embankment, where it has ploughed its way into the earth to a considerable distance. The officers end men there employed knew nothing of the accident or injury dote beyond watt they then Raw before them. Upon reference to the time-table, I find that the train which ran into us should leave Ilford at 7.20, and the train from Barking at 7.16, so that, should anything delay the latter train at Barking for seven or eight minute., them two trains are almost certain to come into colliaion at this point, where the accident occurred last night."

VEGETATION ON THE MOON'S SURVACE.—On the surface of the moon are teen numerous rertalto or narrow lines, about a hundred in number, which appear, perhaps, more like long narrow furrow" , than anything etre. Boat time. they spread themselves on the lunar disc in weight liner, sometimes they are sees slightly etitv.d ; in tray case they are shut in between stiff parallel bord. rd. It hos often bees supposed that them furrows, the true nature of which has remained hitherto unknown, represent the beds of ancient dried-up rivers, orrivera that have no yet reared to dow. Oter astronomers think they are streams of lee+ which have been vomited by lunar voloonme, end which reflect the light of the sun with more intensity than the adjacent regions. M. Schwabe, a German astronomer. todeavourr, however, to give them another exp'snation. He ha• published in the .dstronontische J'esehrichteti atone forte which tend to chow that these ligee are the result of a vegetatioo on the enrfaite of the moon.

These-lines, which are darker than the adjacent parts, tiro clearly the resole of vegetation; and it is this vegetation which makes the sterile porta of the moon appear as bright luminous Meath.
