GEORGE THOMPSON, TIE ABoLITIoNIsr.-t 10
said that this gentleman, who has rendered him
self 80 notorious by his lectures on American
slavery, and his attempt TO interfere with our in
ternal affairs and institutions, is about TO deliver
series of lectures in Canada, on British colonial
history. We hope the report is true, and The is
overfiowing with the milk of human kindness, as
his friends say he is, he will find abundance OF
matter in that subject, on which TO expand him
self. We would suggest to him the propriety Of
lecturng on white slavery in Great Britain, which
is infinitely more Calling than negro slavery in the
United States, and which does not permit the
slaves, male or female, young or old, TO see the
light Of day for a week al time, according
10 the reports submitted to Parliament. We
allude to the slaves in the coal mines.
In those abodes of misery, the male slaves,
in state Of almost complete nudity, ply the
pick-axe and fill the crates, which the women,
with scarcely enough covering to hide their
nakedness, carry away. Many of them, male
and female, never heard of the Saviour of the
world, as has been proved. The very negro
slaves of the South are better treated than this,
and many of them voluntarily contributed theiI
money TO the purchase OF food for the starving
white slaves Of Great Britain, during the late
famine in Ireland and Scotland, year or two ago
Slavery, indeed! Look at home, and you will find
il IN perfection. What would England now give
if slavery had not been abolished in the Wes
Indies

REMOVAL OF THE CAPITAL FROM ALBANY TO
NEw YoRK.-lt is said that vigorous effort will
be made, at the next session of the Legislature Of
this State, 10 remove the capital from Albany TO
this metropolis. We do not know bat that this is
good idea The reason of establishing the capi
tai in Albany, was on account of its central posi-
ton. In this age of steam, however, when the
State is ntersected by railroads, this reason will
not apply, for the members from the most distant
part of the State could reach New York in day
and half or two days We apprehend the " rural
districts" will hardly consent to this change. We
shall see, however.

The Case Of John ID. .Jackson.-This case, in which
Mr.. Jackson stan ds charged with obtaining several
hundred dollars worth of liquor by false pretences
from Mr. Lewis J. Jones' called up yesterday, be-
fore Justice Osborn, hearing. Some of the wit
nesses examined but, thus far, there dees not
to be evidence enough to sustain the charge of
false pYetences. The examination, hewever, not
opeluded, but adjourned over until o'clock to day.
Chcrge Of DoLtie Bigamg.-Oficer Acker arrested
yesterday, man by the name of Joseph George on a

during his absence the wife Informed that he
dead after she married German printer doing
business in vesey street. George in the mean time,
idle but paid his attentions 70 pretty young
by the name Of Stanton, and finally about two
weeks since, induced her TO marry him. The father
of Miss stanton becoming enraged at the deception
practsed by gorge has brought the whole matter be-
fore the police authorities and the arrests have been
made and the parties detained to answer. The case
will possibly undergo hearing.
Chcrge Of Peyny.-Yesterdsy. officer s.; J. Smith
arrested by the name OF Henry L. Baker,
charge of perjury in swearing falsely before the Court
OF Common Pleas, in a divorce case pending between
George l. Barr and his wife Cornelia which evidence,

is that II is no uncommon thing to hear Of our ma
