MIR. Garmet's Lectures.

We hope the friends of the slave will take nO-
tce of the appointments of Rev. H. H. Garnet,
of Troy, N. Y, which will be found below; and
make special effort, not only to hear him them
selves, but also, to induce their neighbors to be
present. Any of them will be richly rewarded for
ride of at least ten miles. Though he is OF
pure African descent, and was born in slavery, ne
is now well educated man, and an excellent spea-
ker. Our friends need not expect any flights of
frothy eoquence, but they may expect an exhibit
ton of good common sense, mixed with deep p-
ETY. If you hear him in right spirit, you may
expect that your understandings will be enlighten-
ed and your hearts be made better. Mr.. Garnet
may be expected to lecture at the following places

CON R ES AL.

In Senate January 10. MIR. Fairfield presen-
ted the petition of Robert Towne and others, for
indemnify for French spoatons.
The Senate proceeded to the consideration of
the report of the committee on finance, on the bill
introduced by Mr.. McDuflie, to modify the pres
ent tariff law.
Mr.. McDufie, who was entitled to the floor,
spoke for upwards of two hours on the principles
and policy of protective tariff.
Mr. Evans followed, and intmatng an intention
of replying at length.
The Senate went into executive session for
few minutes, and then adjourned until Monday
next.
In The House, after the presentation of reports
from a few of the committees, the consideration
of the report of the select committee on the rules
was resumed
Mr.. Saunders who was entitled to the floor, made
an able argument in defence of the 91st rule, in
reply to Mcssrs. Beardsley, Hudson and Duncan.
The morning hour expired before Mr. S. had con-
cluded his remarks.
Mr.. Duncan by general consent, introduced a
bill providing that the elections for electors for
president and vice president be held upon the same
day throughout the United States. The bill was
tons.
The House then went into committee of the
whole (Mr. Winthrop in the chair) on the ques-
ton of referring the presidents message.
In The Senate, Jan. 10. Mr.. McDufie proceed
ed in his remarks on the tariff, our commerce and
the navy. England, he thought was cooperating
with American abolitioniss to destroy our inStitu
tions and that the slave States were in vaSsaIag'
to the free States. The free states, said he, who
talk so much about abolishing slavery have made
slaves of US all, white and black. We are now
receiving on an average, but - 10 cents day fol
our slaves; it is the CHEAPEST labor in the world.
| Mr. Evans deprecated this discussion as tending
to unsettle public confidence in the permanency o
national legislation. The country is not so mucl
affected by high or low tarif-let US but have
stability.
In the House, the Committee on Elections are
ready to report on the validity of the general tick
ct elections. 1t is a strict party vote in Commit
tee, 6 in favor and against.
Jan. Gothic House went into committee o.
the whole on the subject of the Western waters
The discussion was characterized by most ridicu
lous confusion, in which Mcconnell Of Alabama
made himself very conspicuous. Stewart, of Pa
after great deal Of trouble, succeeded in gett I'M
an opportunity to explain some remarks he ha
made the day before.

AS WE ExpEcTED,--The wing papers greediIy
copy Mr.. Garrison's denuncaton of the Liberty
party, but they neglect to say that that denuncia-
tion is predicaedup on the fact that Liberty men do
not denounce the clergy, in mass, as brother
hood of thieves the American church as "a cage
of unclean BIRDS and demand, in the name Of
God and humanity, the dissolution of this blood
-cemented, atheistcal Umon' Mr.. Garrison de-
nounces US, it is true, but he gives, in the same
connection, the reasons of his denunciation-hiS
aess scrupuous wing allies, copy the denuncaton
but carefully suppress the reasons upon which il
is based. Honest men, feeling strong in the right
eousness of their cause, could never be guilty Of
such pitiful fraud. Christian Freeman.

A fair specimen of southern insoence is shown
in the report of Mr.. Campbell, of South Carolina,
on the petition presented by Mr. Giddings for a
revision of the laws of the District of Columbia.
Mr.. c. reported resolution that the clerk be di-
rected to return the petition to thegentleman who
presented it, and this resolution was adopted by a
vote of 116 to SO. Some of the laws of the Dis
trict are absolutely Infamous, and petition for
the revision should be respectfully received and
granted The insoence of this procedure is inf
niteIy worse than the gag rule. -Lo,oeN Journal
