ADVICE TO TIE CoLoRED RACE. w
learn from the Buffalo COMMERCIAL tina
committee appointed by the recent Ma
tional Convention If colored people a
Cleveland, al the head e which is FRED
ERrcK DOUGLASS, have published an ad
dress to their brethren in the u. States
that contains many wise and sound
suggestions. Were these recommends
tons but needed and acted upon, their
influence in amcIioralng the condition Of
those TO whom they are addressed, would
be most powerful. We make the follow
ing extracts;
Every blow of the sledge hammer,
welded py sable arm, is a powerful
blow in support of our cause. Every col
ored mechanic, is by virtue of circum-
stances, an elevator of his race. Every
house built by black men, is a strong
tower against the allied hosts of prejudice
1t is impossible for us to attach too much
Importance to this aspect Of the subject.
Trades are important. Wherever man
may be thrown by misfortune, if he has
his hands useful trade, he is useful
10 his fellow men, and will be esteemed
accordingly; and of all men in the world
who need trades, we are the most needy.
Understand this, that independence is an
essential condition of responsibility. To
be dependent, is to be degraded,
Men may indeed pity us, but they cannot
respect US. We do not mean that We
can become entirely Independent, of all
mon; that would be absurd and lmpossl.
BILE, in the social state. But we mean
that we must become equally independent
with other members of the community.
That other members Of the community
shall be as dependant upon them.
That such is not now the case is too
plain TO need an argument.
Let us entrcat you TO turn you attention
TO agriculture. Go to farming. Be til.
lers of the soil. On this point we could
say much, but the time and space will not
permit. Our cities are overrun with men
tai laborers, while the country is eloquent
ly pleading for the hand of industry to ill
her soil, and reap the reward Of homes,
labor We beg and entreat you to save
your money--live economical y-dispense
with fnery, and the gaielies which have
rendered us prove-biaI, and save your
money. Not for the senseless purpose of
being better off than your neighbor, but
that you may be able to educate your
children, and render you share to the
common stock of prosperity and happiness
around you. 1t is plain that the equality
which we aim to accomplish, can only be
achieved by US, when we can do for others
can do for us. We should, therefore,
press into all the trades, professions, and
calngs, into which honorable white men

From TAMrIco We learn from the
New Orleans Delta, that The citizens o
Tampico we're stirred to a display Of In
dependence, through fears that the Com
mandant General, Monlays, intended It
fill the place with troops, collected
from the lately nsurgent district Of Haas
teca, and then establish military dicta
torsAip. Gen. NJ, from Victoria, had is.
sued proclamation, denouncing the abel.
tiers of the Sierra Madre scheme, aud de-
claring that they should be signally pun
ished This alarmed the population, who
are represented to be arden, in their de-
sire for change. They regret the a.
merican rule and nothing will content
them but return thereto.
1t is stated. in letters which have reach.
ed this city, that the presence of 1000
Americans, in arms, would suffice to rev.
olutionize The whole Of the State Of Ia
maulpas, without shedding a drop Of
blood.
In the pronunciamenlo, published IN.
der the signature of Pablo Castella, which
we have seen, the cliZens announce their
determination to resist the entrance of the
troops-of lhe-Ilne into the city at all haz'
ards. They are now encamped on the
opposite side Of the river, and it was ex-
pected that as soon as they were reinlorc-
ed, the signal OF assault would be given,
and terrible sanguinary scenes would be
enacted.
