Let those who are "bent upon mischief" and
endeavoring to excite sectional feelings ON dell
cate subject, read the following extract:
From the Essen Mass Register. 4
Ma. ED1roR:-Deeply as we feel interested
in the cause Of the injured African, we cannot
but think that the measures which some OF their
warunest friends and advocates are taking, are
not only useless but really injurious to the cause
We do not start at having said so-for We know
it to be the opinion of many. very many OF our
most intelligent and liberal. minded and benevo.
lent men, 1t ia so entirely useless to think OF
driUiag men, such men as the inhabitants OF our
Southern States, by bard names and abusive IAN
guage, to relinquish their hold on what they
know is their lawful property-to emanc'pate. or
rather expe from their plantations, those who
are so fondly attached to them. and some of whom
IS love their masters almost to deUotson'-that
we can hardly think of the man, who advocates
such measures, as a benefactor to society. Those
who have lived in slave-holding States, and who
have seen the bright as well as the dark side ct
the picture, are far more competent than our
selves to speak of this subject.
A short extract from letter recently received
from gentleman who has resided more than
year in one of the slave.holding States, will not
be urinteresting, perhaps, to your readers.
81 came to the South with all my prejudices
strong against Slavery: but can still see that
the slaves are not so badly treated as had sup
posed that they are happy when moderately
worked. and when released at night, that their
spirits are uniformly good, and faces free from
care; that the free negroes are very wretched,-
more despsed than slaves, unable TO carry on
business in slave country, and obliged to re-
sort to theving, and plumber. and midnight prowl-
ing, to gain livelihood; that they are generally
worse off than slaves, and that slaves are by far
the happier and more respectable class of the
two. These thugs socially observation
proves il to me; and tough am decided enc.
my to the system, ! must believe my senses.
"Last Sunday evening. our church was thrown
open Tor the reception OF the blacks. MIR. -
preached to them. and the whole house was
crowded with them. looked around and saw
that almost all were slaves-and yet they were
even handsomely dressed; gentlemen and ladies
in handsome broadcloth, and shining wells. Eve.
~ countenance seemed happy, and all were ca
gerly and respectfully listening to the word
They sang several sweet hymns in their
wild and melodious way, and truly
never heard such heavenly music. They have
more harmony and more Imagination than
the whites. They are creatures of passion
Some are as soft and polished as their masters,
and as choice of the company they keep as thnse
who train them. An interesting race-never
shall forget some faithful negroes in ---;
never shall lose thought of their gratitude.

Election Rarely, we believe, has an cleo.
ton closed with more general disappointment
than that for charter officers, which closed on
Thursday. Although there was no regular array
of parties, yet in nearly all the wards Old Tam.
MANY raised her standard, and the greatest exer.
tons were made BY partizans to get the Re- gular
Nomination "of The Purity" which was believed
would be triumphant in every ward ia the, city
except, probably. in the Third. Contrary to
all expectation, the regular Tammany Hall tick
ct has been beaten in every ward but two where
there was contest, and in these the candidates
instead of getting several hundred. have got in

The HeHespom. The following paragraph
from the New York papers affords new presump-

do the insurers here feel Of her safety, that one
Of them yesterday offered to underwrite upon her

A ship, name unknown, had just arrived at
Rio Janeiro. Feb. lth, in a short passage from
Boston. Perhaps this will prove to be the Hell
lespont, about which much anxiety has been Gre
ated, and which sailed from Boston on the eth
December.
~ Since the above was in type, we have
been kindly furnished by Messrs. Sullivan and
Barbour, and Henry Hooper, with abstracts of
letters received by them, via Baltimore. from
Rio, dated February lst and 10th, written BY
Mr.. William Hooper, one Of the passengers on
board the Hellespmt. The voyage to Rio was

them.

The Columbia S. c. Times remarks with some
complacency, that
"s The little State of South Carolina, is the
continual theme of vilifration, out of which all
Yankee land erects glory tor Itself. Yet that
very little Carolina is taking Maine ont Of
the question: nearly as large as all New.Engand
together"
There is great virtue in exceptions. Baltic
NcoI Jarvie assured the town concil OF Glasgow,
that Rob Roy was an honester man than stood
on any OF their shanks, saving what he bad done
against the laws of his country, and the misfog-
tune of some folks losing life BY him.
The assertion in the last sentence of the above
paragraph, though of no great Importance, is
quite inaccurate. Boston. .4du.
