ACT sEcoND-scBNE THE FIRST.
Yesterday the second act of the interesting drama
u 'ae Ahnavsrsaries was enacted in this city. The
Arst scene took place at the Tabernacle; the per.
formers were the members Of the Anti Slavery So
ciety. The Tabernacle was crowded with beautiful
women; the platform and raised seats behind it were
'hiskiy studded with black and white parsons indis-
crninateIy and promiscuously arranged. The church
haa curious, chequer- board appearance; here a
o'ach giri by the side of white man, there beaut-
iui white girl between two coored gentlemen; for.
tuna'eiy' the weather not warm and no one
tainted although several left the place soon after the
cartaiA rose One group Of ladies, in particular ON
the right hand side of the chapel seemed particular
~ struck with the novelty Of the scene. They en-
tered about an hour after the performances COM
menced, and passed little way down the side aisle
the right; they looked like a mother and two
daughters; the mother had white silk hat. one
daughter pink silk hat, and the third and most
beautiful Of the group had light green silk hat a
mOusfin de lame Dress with slate-coored ground,
and large flower pattern, small gold chain and or
nament round the neck handsome scarf and lace
collar, beautiful form and bust dark hair and pale,
but handsome features. This hand some and amiabe
trio seemed to sympathise deeply with the slave,
until large, coarse negro, black the ace of
spades, took his stand by the side Of the last de-
scribed; she shrunk apparently with horror from
the contact, turned pale, turned up her beautiful
aristocratic nose at sable Sambo and whisper
ing, "come, ma, let CO." she slid from the build
ing fast her handsome feet could carry her.
| The performances commenced with very long
rayer in which the spe aker prayed Tn God 10 con-
duct every thing quiet and cable and not 10 let
