FOR THE ADVOCATE.
COLONIZATION.
MEssRs EDITORS,

MEssRs EDITORS, utrtt
In conformity with tho notice contained in
your last Advocate, it is understood a rcspecta.
bic meeting Of Ladies from Charlottesville, and
its vicinity held Saturday last, at the place
named, and the principles laid down in connex-
ion with the aforesaid notice, adopted as the
basis of a Female Association in aid of the Viz
ginia Colonization Society.
The plan adopted, it is hoped will prove ac-
ceptabc to all the friends of the object proposed
to be accomplished.-No officers or managers
were chosen; nor was it thought ADVISABLE
there should be at this early stage Of tho plan
to be accomplished This plan proposes the
forming of Independent associations in every
part of tho County, each association to consis;
of us many Ladies' as can conveniently cooper
ate together in consultation or otherwise for the
commonpurpose.-I contemplates general meet
ing oil delegates from eacn of these associations
TO consist as managers, and TO determine upon,
all the necessary arrangements for the fair to be
hcld'in January.-Thus there will be but one
general association or Society, composed of
many smaller ones, all having equal right and
Importance in regulating their own private de-
tails and IN determining the final arran gcments.
Al ah's way 4 ls sl,2s !. 80 Il s sua-
uoh may Dc SAvsscu 49, fGsuit ia the

The writer of this article supposes that Mt
least twenty small associations may be found in
Observation-Disclosures and in different parts of
the County. Should this be the case, tho .,niver
sal attention will, of course, be attracted to the
subject, ana asfull attendance, full supplies of
articles Manufactured, and an extensive sale at
liberal prices ray he expected on the day of tie
tair. Should, however, the,effort be limited to
few, the benfit realized will consequently be
partial. All feel Interested in this subicct-will
not then all move in it simultaneously Ifso,
then instead of ten members each, there will be
forty or fifty. Let it he supposed for moment,
that twenty little societies averaging five mem
ters, are employed in promoting this plan of be-
ncvoiencc; 'ihs will give one Hundred Female
Hands; and the product of the lobor of each
being estimated at only ten dollars, which is
supposed to be a low estimate, the happy result
may be easy computed in the facilities furnish

class OF our population who are at this very mo-
ment looking with longing eyes and beating
hearts TO the land of their Fathers
