For t1e JJuFndk.
Ma. ED,ToR: This is the season for Fairs,
and they are held it is said. for very laud-
able purpose namely, the repairing and dec
Grating of Churches and The payment of the
Pastors 1t is the ladies who do all the work.
and attend to the getting up and carrying out
the objects for which Fairs are held.
This is the season too, when the poor suffer
the most. Many will say that there are
none SO poor as to want within the limits Of
our good city; but, Mr.. Editor, there are
many who are in want, and those, too who
have not brought it upon themselves by idle
ness. but sickness and other mislor,unes have
brought them to their present wretched con-
dition.
Now if the ladies' would take the thing
in hand, those wants might be relieved, the
sick made more comfortable, and the naked
children clothed. .-
What should like to see would be this
instead Of sewing societies, tea parties, and
fairs got up for the purpose o. decorating the
places or aublc worship, that such societies
parties and MFRS. or the proceeds Of them
should be used to relieve those who are &C.
tually ia want. Let the ladies' (God bless
them y but move in the matter, and The good
work will move onward. They well know
that TO give TO the poor is but to lend TO the
Lord.

The a1sis and George Thompson.


We have already noticed in such manner as we
thoughit deserved, the silly lie in the Egs, that
George Thompson announced it as part of his OBJ
Ject, in visiting this country, to aid in bringing about
dissolution of the Union, and should not have re-
ferred to the subject again. had we not seen the par
agraph gravey quoted from the Egis, IN that owl
like personiication of save-hunkerism, the Bos-
ton Journal 1t did not surprise us, at ALL to the
article in the Egis, originally, bearing as it did the
stamp ofmeanness, falsehood, and malignity, on its
very face, for had too long known the character
OF the paper, to be surprised at anything of the kind
We knew the contempt in which the editor holds
the "commOn class of readers, and that he had no
higher appreciation of their Judgment than to sup
pose that he could impose upon their creduity with
lie so weak and malicious, and by thus arousIng
their preudlces and passions, prepare them for the
commissioner of violence themselves or for the iusti-
fcaton oft in others.
Now, we affirm the Egis's statement relative to
Thompson, is false from beginning to end that there
was no incident of the voyage on which to base such
statement, and that the editor cannot produce any
passenger, who made the voyage in company with
George Thompson, who will sustain the statement Of
thatpaper, or become responsible for it.; and until
the editor shall do that, the public will believe, as
we now believe, that he manufactured the tale with
out any authority, and for the most reprehensible
of purposes.

Massachusetts, State Teachers Association.
The sixth annual meeting OF this Educational AS
ISOLATION, for mutual encouragement and assis-
lance in the great work of training the young, was
held at the City Hall, Worcester, on Monday even
ing. A large number of Teachers ofboth sexes were
present from different parts of the State. At s
O'Clock, lecture was delivered by VIM. H. Wells
Esq of Newburyport, and the remainder of the
evening spent in the discussion of Educational
theories, or statements of educational experiences
Yesterday, the Society met at Ia O'Clock for busi-
ness, and at 10 O'Clock, a lecture was delivered by
Calvin S. Pennell of Charlestown.
Sabject-'tM Means and motives adopted by Teach
ers for success in school government An interest
ing discussion followed the delivery of the lecture
upon the topics suggested, in which many teachers
present. participated until the hour of adjournment
The first business of the afternoon was the ap-
polnment of a committee to nominate list of off,
GERS for the ensuing year. After which the veneer
able DR.. Pierce, late Principal of the Newton Nor
NAL School, by invitation addressed the Society upon
the subject of the educational condition of Europe at
the present time. AT O'Clock, lecture was delv-
cred by Hon Horace james of Wrentham
Su9ect-How to enlarge the sphere of influence
honor the profession and increase the usefulness of
the teacher. Discussion followed the delivery of
the lecture in the morning. and list of officers
was chosen by ballot.
In the evening the association again met with the
expectation of listening to a lecture from Professor
Agassiz but they were disappointed. The Profess
sor could not come, and Professor FELTON, who had
engaged to supply his pluce did not come and the
evening was spent mainly in discussions. The at
tendance at no time was very large, and we much
regret that extensive notice had not been Civ
en- SO that citizens might have participated in the
profit and pleasure of the highly intellectual pro-
ceedings of the various meetings.

Marlborough,

MR.. EDITOR: | send you the copies of two res
olutions adopted by the voters of Marlborough. at
their annual town meeting on Monday the 18th of
Nov. Perhaps ought to state, that an article was
inserted in the warrant for the meeting to see if the
town Will express any opinion in relation to the Fu
gltlve Slave Law and the resolutions were adon-
ed In consequence of that article. They were adop
ted too, unanimously, with the exception of five
mere shadows of slave hunters and a Webster
swab, three obstinate, muish partizans, who never
read any political paper but the Post, and one ile-
climate donkey, who has as much humanity in his
composition as there in the image which Ne
buchadnezzar saw in his dream, but not half the
wisdom and shrewdness that the Hero of La Man.
cha's Squire had. But here are the resolutions
which speak the sentiments of the people of Marl-
borough, and, trust-of nine tenths of the neonle
Of Massachusetts,
Reolled, That Massachusetts soil since the 10Th If
Aprl lI70, has been consecrated 10 Freedom and ,b

Resot'ed, That we most decidedly dsapproye of the

rylng ITS provisions into effect, but that we will in all
suitable and proper ways, resist its execution as ong
