Resolved, that this meeting view with deem re.
greet the attempt now making TO ColonizeS the free
people OF color on the western coast Of Africa ;
believing we do that il is ipimical to- the best
interests of the people of color, and avafiance
with the principles Of civil and religious liberty
and wholly incompatible with the spirit Of the
Constitution and Declaration Of Independence, Of
these United States.
Resolved, That we disclaim all connection with
Africa, and although the descendants of that much
afflicted country, we cannot consent to remove "a
any tropical climate, and thus aid in design hay.
ing for its object the total extirpatoh of our race
from this country, professions to the contrary not
wthstanding.

ABNRNSs


Of Wilmington, Delatoare.
WE the undersigned, in conformity to the wish
es Of our brethren, beg leave to present 10 the pub
lie, IN calm and unprejudiced manner, our decd-
cd and unequivocal disappIobation of the Amer.
can Colonization Society, and its auxiares, in re-
lation to the free people of color in the United
States. Convinced as we are, that the operations
OF this Society have been unchristian and anti.re-
publican in principal, and at variance, with our
best interest as people. We had reason to believe
that the precopts Of religion, the dictates ofustice
and humanity, would have prevented any consider.
able Portloni of the community, from lending their

PriVe US of rights that the declaration of indepen
dence declares are the unalienabe rights" Of all
men. We were content to remain silent, believing
that the justice and patriotism Of a magnanimous
people, would prevent the annals Of our native and
beloved country from receiving so deep stain.
But observing the growing strength and influence
oil that Institution and being well aware that the
generality Of the public are unacquainted with our
views on this important subject, we feel it dutv
we owe TO ourselves, our children, and posteTity.

We are natives of the United States; our ances.

Correspondence of the New York Courier and
ENQUIRER


WASHINGTON, July 29th, 1881.
was glad to perceive in your paper an author
lied contradiction Of the falsehood relative to Ma
dam Huygens, ushered to the world by S. d. Ingham
and j. M. BerIien. Il is due to Baron Huygens,
that this matter should be clearly understood.
Certainly; If this Government thought, that by his
conduct or that'cf his family here, he had made
himself obnoxious TO the President, he would be
instantly recalled. To thia disgrace, have two of
the late members Of the Cabinet, in their reckless
attack on the President, exposed an innocent mani
Thinking that plain tale is the best means to
put down sandel, Il have enquired of an anthem
tic source what actually took place at Baron Kru-
dener's party of which this story has been manu-
featured. The facts arc these: supper being an.
nounced, the Russian minister desired the Score.
tary of Wan to conduct Madame Huygens TO the
table. AS he approached her, Madame Huygens
observed, that she was under engagement on that
subject to Gen. Macomb. Major Eaton politely
sought for the General, but as the room was ex.
cedingly csowded, ceuld not End him. He then
remarked 70 the lady, that he feared she would moi
succeed, if she waited longer in getting to the
first table. She rose, took his arm, and they walk
ed to the supper room; but the table was already
filled, and like many others, they were obliged t.
return.
This is positively the whole story. The brave
General, who you know is never wanting in gal
tantry, was undoubtedly prevented from prompt,
fulfilling his engagement by the density of thu
crowd, SO thatno blame attached to any one.
Two days after this important affair, the Presiden
called in person on Baron and Madam Huygens
and conversed with them for some time in thu
most friendly manner. Mr.. Ingham says the Pre-
sident was Ignorant because he said, Mrs. Huy
gems had insulted Mrs. Eaton; and the TELEGRAPH
says he called ON Mrs. Bankhead because she wa
kind to Mrs. Eaton Now, if that was his reaso
for calling on Mrs. Bankheod, what was his reaso
for calling on Madame Huygensl Did he call o
one because she was kind 70 Mrs. Eaton, and o
the other because she insulted Mrs Eatonf

Department II is taken from the Globe of the

| After the close of the examination of all the
facts that bad been presented last winter to the
committee, Mr.. Hendricks of Indiana, who had
sustained the Adams administration with an hon.
est zeal, came forward & declared in the Senate,
that there was no testimony before the committee
to criminate the Postmaster General. He said
that be had, at the instance of the Chairman, (Mr.
Clayton,) voted interrogatores, based on the allie.
cations of persons unknown and unnamed to the
committee, he had sanctioned questions which did
not appear TO him very necessary, because other
members Of the committee thought them so, and
il was proper for him 10 say that this course was
not based on ANY TESTIMONY OWEN TO THE COM.
