them will influence others to go 10 country where
they can, in addition to advancing their own inte-
rests be OF vast service to their fellow creatures IN
aboshing the slave trade, and cviizing quarter
of the world where the missionary enterprises OF
the whites have all signally failed
Ii is not supposed that any State will compel Its
colored population TO emigrate TO Liberia-no resort
TO compusion will be necessary or proper--the in
ducements TO emgrate will be all sufficient, when
comfortable homes and an ample subsistence are
provided for the emigrants. The cost OF the pas
age being reduced To a very small amount, the
sums appropriated by the various States and raised
by subscription in this country and in Europe, will
be available for the purpose of making comfortable
provision Tor the emgrants on their arrival. There
can be no doubt that the funds will be ample.
Hitherto the resources Of the Colonization Society
have been very limited about $50 900 per annum,
much OF which has been applied TO the home ex-
penses OF the society SO that little could be done
beyond merely transporting the emgrants and
making come slight provision for them for period
OF elk months. The colony, therefore, has not been
attractive to the free colored population il will
be in future, protected and petted il will be by
the great powers OF Europe, and supplied with an
abundance OF pecuniary means. Hitherto the col
ony has had to encounter all the difficulties OF early
enterprises OF this kind, but now the settlement Is
fully established and thriving, and a permanent
influence has been obtained over the surrounding
tribes. The medical treatment Of the diseases OF
thecountry is now better understood than formerly,
and the population is increasing irrespective OF the
new arrivals. comparison is challenged between
the mortality OF Liberia and that OF any OF our west
crn States in the early stages OF their settlement
The emigrants being civilized, fill all the more
respectable occupations, whilst the natives are the
laborers This arrang cement is attended with great
advantages. The natives acquire a taste Tor dress
and other comforts and elegancics OF civilized
life, and to crafty that taste are induced to labor
They are also impressed with proper degree of
respect for their employers, and willingly bring
their children TO be educated This is the true
way, and the only way TO civili1c Africa. and when
thousands instead of hundreds shall annually 60 to
Liberia the results will be great indeed. Let Libe-
ria be strengthened by the acquisition of thousands
OF emigrants annually, and she will soon be in a
condition to take under her protection great
many more of the tribes in her neighborhood.
The republic. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1849-1853, 1850-09-07

As before observed the free colored population is
now estimated at half million, and 1t is rapidly
increasing. The annual increase Of the black race
in the United States ia not less than seventy thou
sand II may be fairly assumed that most Of the
blacks nov free can he induced 70 cmigratc, and
that but few of those who may be hereafter manu-
united will remain in this country.
The colony now has the protection of England
and France, and when il il known that great cf
fort is being made in the United States to colonze
Africa, sufficient amount of money can be raised,
IN England alone for the purchase Of materials for
building, furniture, stock, and provisions for the

THE PRESIDENT AND THE MESomENEEs.-The
delegation of nine chiefs of this tribe were admitted
to audience yesterday, at which we were iortu-
nate enough to be present. They were severally
introduced TO the President, who welcomed them
in terms of kindness.
The object of their mission to Washington was
briefly stated by Mr.. Bruce, the Sub Indian Agent,
in whose charge they have come from their far-oh
home. The President addressed them in reply
through the interpreter, Mr.. Grignon. lie said
1--WE do not profess to give literal rePorD-
am happy to meet with you, my friends.
Ugh ugh! (thankfully.)
am happy to hear that you arc the friends of
the white man.

you have entered into with US ID not just.
All ugh! (Which seemed to say-"Well you
may be.")
will listen to the objections you have to urge
against its justncss.
Oh agh lin a reconciled tone
If | find that injustice has been done, will take
pleasure in enforcing what is just
Ogh-ogh! (gratefully.)
understand you desire to remain upon the land
you now occupy during the approaching winter.
Ugh, Ugh. (afiirmatively)
In order that every thing may be well under
stood between us, and that ample time may be had
you have my consent TO remain there until the LIST
Of June next
Oh oh ugh, with satisfactory
But you must not understand that this permits
sion is to for any longer period Of time than
have named
[Silcnce.l
This privilege is granted TO relieve you from the
inconvenience of going into a new country in win
ter, as well to afford time to examine the COM
plants you have to make.
Ah-ugh! (gratifedly.)
1t is my wish that Friday next your objections
to the treaty be left with me.
Oh-ugh! (consentingly.)
And it ia my hope that you will return peace
fully and quietly 10 your home, and that you will
not interfere with such surveyors and other persons
may be sent there.
Ohugh! (faintly.)
And before the time have named, the first OF
June next, it is my hope that the subject will be
fully examined and correctly understood, and that
Justice will be observed in all that may be done.
[Silencel
The President then babe them good bye, shaking
hands with each one in his own kind and hearty
manner, and then retired.
The delegation now came into the hall, and were
approaching INC HOut uoof, Wnch pentfdl sCOlt en-
tered. They halted and the interpreter informed
them who he was; and, suppose, what he had
DONE At this information they manifested lively
interest, and smiled their hearty approval they
surveyed the tall form and manly features of the
old white warrior. The General remembered the
service which some of them had rendered their
white brethren, and intimated 10 them that the
white man ever thought Of them with great kind
ness
As the General passed on, servant approached
and made revelation to the interpreters, which
passed around in monosylables, and hitch
was given to each coat and blanket, and the whole
party followed the servant as promptly as if he
had asked them to partake Of some refreshments.

We invite the attention Of the reader to
the following article from the Psnnsylca,,ian,
urging the importance Of promoting the emil
grafton of free persons of color from the United
States to Liberia. The project of establishing
a line of mail steamships TO the west coast of
Africa for that purpose, recently recommended
in a report of the Naval Committee of the House
of Representatives, has met with the almost
unanimous support of the public press of both
sections and parties.
