Euerson,s Address.

We conclude to-day the publication OF the pro-
found and calm, but still earnest and bold Ad-
Address of RAIrH WALDO E9ERsos on West
India Emancipation. 1t is one of the strongest
and best productions of the authors gifted pen ;
and relating as it does TO subject of the most
profound interest to the Philosopher and States
man, TO less than TO the Philauthropst and Chris
tian, we cannot allow ourselves to doubt that it
will be received with the candor which its own
spirit is so well calculated TO inspire. Though
protected by copyright, the Publishers have kind
ly complied with our wish, by allowing us to
transfer it to our columns. Those who desire to
possess it in more durable form, will find it in a
neat pamphlet at the store of James Munroe s.
Co. Boston, or that of C. S. Francis & Co. New
York.

sAssoc,ation fer the Rene at OF Pri.oners

The inhumanity of Government, as too often
| exhibited in its treatment of those wEom it i'm
prisons for crime, has long been theme of pain
iul interest TO philanthropc and thoughtful minds.
The criminal after being incarcerated IS frc-
quently, ifnot generally, left to his fate without
the benefit of that sympathy for which, as an
erriug, it may be fallen man, he still has a
claim on his more fortunate fellow beings; and
when at length the term of his imprisonment
expires, instead of being taken kindly by the hand
and encouraged to struggle manfully and hope
fully against the ills of life, he is met with
scorn, it may be often with bitter revilings and
curses. Who can wonder that under such in.
fiuences his last state is worse than the fist, and
that in the course of few weeks or months ae
goes back agsin to the prison with d heait hard.
eaed to desperation by what he feels TO be the
inhumanity of his fellow men :
On this subiec. we could write much, but for
the present we iorbear. We took the pen simply
for tho purpose of expressing the qualification We
have felt on being informed that measures are in
progress under highly favorable auspices for the
formation Of Society whose object will be 10
promote the highest welfare of the inmates of our
prisons, and to provide for them homes and en-
ployment when they are set at liberty. Foremost
in this work of philanthrophy we are glad 10 find
some of our most distinguished citizans, whose
cooperation can hardly fail to secure for it the
highest degree of success. Among them We
may mention Theodore Frelnghuyssn, Judge
Kent, Mayor Harper, B. F. Butler, w H. Chan
ming, Judge Ulshoeffer, Vics Chancellor Sand
ford, Professor Telk.mpf, Isaac T. Hopper, the
well known Quaker philanthsopist, and J. w.
Edmonds, Chairman of the Board OF Inspectors
of the Mount Pleasant Prison.
1t affords US heartfelt pleasure to learn that
public meeting to consumInate the organization
of the Society referred to, will be held on Friday
evening at the Apollo, when addresses will be
made by eloquent speakers. We trust that
largo number of our citizens will be induced to
attend. Above all We invoke the presence OF
pb;lsnthropic women, assuring them that state.
ments will bs made respecting the condition of
the female prisoners a. Sing Sing and elsewhere,
of character which cannot fail to awaken their
deepest sympathies.

experiments in Mesmerism last evening. A
boys limbs were paralized; he also dis played
various feats of strength. A young lady was
also mesmerized. While in this state she played
part OF game of chess, and read little from q
paper. A gentleman present handed her g
package asking her what it contained. After
thinking for some time, she replied, al should
think it was bank bills" The package did con-
tain bank bills. This was tie most curious ex-
