Sickness Of Frederick Douglass

lar, will be bitterly disappointed. They had
placed great reliance upon his presence and
cooperation at their celebration Of the First
Of August. The disease Of Mr.. Douglass
is a low fever If he recovered sufficiently
he might proceed with his tour as far as Prac-
ticable but il was most probable that he
would return TO Rochester as soon as he
should be able 10 bear the fatigue Of travel
ing.
Whether Mr.. Remond, who was TO accom-
pany Mr.. Douglass in his tour, will fulfil the
appointments made, or relinquish the plan, is
not stated.
TRouBLEs OF THE SoUTH.-The cherished
idol Of our Southern brethren gives them a
vast deal Of trouble and perplexity, and often
Gets opposite interests 10 a position Of uncom-
Portable antagonism. The unproGtableness
of ordinary slave labor leads many masters
into pecuniary embarrassment; but, unwil-
ling 10 attribute the difficulty TO the right
cause, they seek relief by employing their
slaves in those branches of mechanical labor
which command a higher profit. This at
once raises a storm among white mechanics,
who protest against elevating negroes 10 the
rank of apprentices, and threaten, il the prac-
tice is not stopped, 10 pour out their long
nursed wrath in a grand consuming flame,
which even the civil authorities cannot
| quench. Precisely this state Of things exists
now in some parts of Georgia, and the press
is giving utterance 10 the complaints and
threats Of the mechanics. The path Of JUS
lice is the Path Of safety. Let the South abol-
ish her slavery and recognize the doctrine OF
human equality, and troubles of this sort
would not occur. The effort Of one portion
of the race 10 %enslave another always tends TO
destroy the peace and security of the oPpres-
sol as well as the happiness of the oppressed.
BENEFITS OF ~SLAvERY.-The South Caro-
lima Telegraph, by way of %retort, speaks oil
The mobs, which sometimes occur in the
Free States, as the "peculiar instituiions " OF
the North, and claims that the conservative
power OF the Union exists I'M the Sa7<s.-
This is rather unkind to the allies Of slavery
among us, especially when it is considered
that the recent rlols are only the Legitimate
fruits of the immunity acquired by mobocrats
in their efforts a few years since to put down
the Abolitionisls. Our Southern brethren
| should not be so ungrateful. The Telegraph
attributes the late riots 10 the Agrarian ten
denotes OF the poor and their hostility 10 the
rich. AT the South there is no danger from
this source, the rich in that part Of the coun-
try putting the poor into their pockets as Sc
much property, and thus saving their instilu-
lions from peril. The Telegraph has proba'
bly, forgotten the Southampton insurreciion, to
say nothing o fthat which occurred in Charles
ton at a prior date. The idea Of putting
down mobs by enslaving the laboTing masses
is worthy of the fame of South Carolina
We are afraid, however, that the people OIL
the North are not yet sufficiently enlighten,
ed to put it in practice. 0 tempOra, o mOreS!
TERRIBLY FRIGHrENED.-The New Or
leans Courier is aw(ully : skeered' because
the Governor of that State is about to give
charter to a lodge of colored Freemasons.-
What! exc'aims the Editor, " secret socie
ty Of colored men. many Of whom may bt
fresh from the Abolition dens 60 horrible!) O
Philadelphia and New York, in the city o
New OTleaans!" Ills : monstrously impu
dent in The free negroes 10 request such
grant, and the lodge, even if legally chartered
"would certainly lead to serious violations o
the p~eace.'' All this affords fresh evidenc
of the hatred and jealousy toward free color
d ed people existing in New Orleans, and c
J the readiness Of the Shareholders TO resort I
Lynch law for The protection of their chez
J ished institution. Down with the Constitu
: ton which binds the Free States in allianc
with such monsters!
# DIsGRAcEFUL.-Wbile Joseph Dugdal
was on his recent visit al the East, he VIZ
n invited TO hold a meeting in the Friend
Yearly Westinghouse at Pennington, N. y
10 The invitation came from members of III
Genesee Yearly Meeting, then in session
After notice Of The meeting had been give

Philadelphia Yearly Meeting, expatiate

If the Westinghouse would be closed again
Joseph and il tcas closed accordingly, bol

DOiy, a member of HE Society, and a m;
with a hearth his bosom, succeeded in efrsc
