"Ifthe unhappy young man who has
so recently figured in the journals of the
metropolis with the details of his folly
and crime, could, before yielding to
temptation, have looked in upon the
State Prisoners at Sing-Sing, as we
did the other day, surely he would have
shrunk back from the vortex before
him. Poor wretches, in their best
tate! How narrow their cells; how
ceaseless their toll; what a negation of
comforts their whole condition 1t
was a sweltering August day, swelter-
ing and oppressive; but there was no
rest for the eighteen hundred unhappy
convicts who piled their never-ending
tasks within these walls. Stealthy
glances from half-raised eyes; pale
countenances, stamped with meek sub
mission or cleaning with powerless
hate in important malignity; and "hard
labor" in the fullest sense, were the
main features of the still-life scenes, as
as we passed through the several work
shops But what picture was presen-
ted as their occupants came swarmlng
into the open courtyard at the sound
of the bell, to proceed to their cells with
their dinner! From the thick atmos-
phere Of the carpet and rug shops, lea

thump of the "weaver's BEAM" and
the long, confused perspective Of cords
and pulleys, and patterns, and multitu
dinous "harness,o they poured forth !,
from murky smithys, streamed the imps
of Vulcan, grim as the dark recesses
from which they emerged; from doors
which opened upon interminable rows
of close set benches, burst forth the
knights of the awl and hammer; the
rub-a-dub of the hooper's mallet, the
creak Of his shaving knife, were still;
the stone hammer was silent, and the
courtyard was full ofthat striped crew!
God of compassion! what sight it
was, to see that motley multitude take
up in gangs their humiliating march
Huge negroes, sweltering in their heat,
were interspersed among ssthe lines;;"

bones Of our forefathers in far and distant land

kindle the fire again that may all lave light
and sec each other truly. We have in times past
been like q man travelling near great thicket, to
see his brother. He could hear him, but he could
not see him. But now we have got out here in
the praries-the thickets have disappeared, and
we can see each other. When forcfathers
met and made this great talk they made it for the
good of all our red bro,hors-for our chilren's
children. This talk" was not given US to preach
the Gospel from. We must keep minds on
the business of our meeting. 1t was not given to
us by our forefathers, only-but by the Great
Spirit, that we and our children might have
guide for us to the highland on tho white paths.
We arc all here, now, as brothers. We are all
one color-we will walk together in the white
path of peace, and in two days your brother, the
