the abors Of the year completes the history Of this
society for quarter of a century. Within this
period, how has the field Of its operations extended
and its work increased Our frontier has receded
from the banks Of the Ohio to the shores Of the Pa
cfc. Seven States have been added to our con-
federacy, and oO0to our population In all the
elements OF national Importance, we have made un-
paralleled progress; and the work appropriate to
this society has increased in like proportion. And,
though it has not accomplished all that with
greater resources 1T might have accomplished,
yet the wide fields where has gathered rich harvests
for Christ-the multitudes to WHOM il has distr
butcd the bread of life-tho 5000 churches il has
aided, andthe 100000 souls ii has gathered into the
fold Of the Great Shepherd, testify that it has not
lsbored in vain. In the prospective growth Of our
country for another quarter of century We forsee
the accumulating responsibilities of this society
While, in the older States, il must I" be watohful
and strengthen the things that remain that are
ready to die" il must also go forth g bearing pre-
cious Seed with the advancing tide OF emigration

Gospel institutions in great central valley, and
on the shores OF the Pacific, work is to be done
for Christ, such he has entrusted to no other

than any other nation. Why should not Mr..
Peto and ether pharsaical members of Parlia-
ment who show such an anxiety about us, be-
stow little Of their thoughts upon some of the
other nations who have sent wares and repre-
sentatives to the Great Exhibition! There are
Spain and Portugal, for instance, and Denmark,
all of them large shareholders, to say nothing
of Turkey, and Egypt, and Brazil. Why not
firmly refuse to receive into fellowship" the
representatives of those countries! There is
Russia, too, with more white slaves than we
have black ones ; why let her off? Then, again,
there are other national sins, according to the
creed of Mr.. Peto, besides that which 30 excites
his indignant philanthropy. We have no doubt
that something might be found to object to,
even in China, or Austria, for that matter, and
we think it is not unreasonable in us to demand
that, "a all were invited to London on equal
terms, we shall all have equal treatment. If
there are good many Americans in England,
Mr.. Peto and the rest of them must remember
that there are good many Turks, Frenchmen,
Austrans, Danes, Prussans, Russians, Beginns,
Hanoverians, and Egyptians. To snub MS for
our imagined sins before the whole company,
and let the Others go, we must insist is not ex-
actly in accordance with that spirit of mag
nanimity and love of fair play Of which John
Bull is so fond Of boastng Sir Henry Bulwer
recently said, in one Of his good-natured dinner
speeches, that John Bull never struck man
when he was down. But it strikes us, that to
invite aneighbor into his house for the express
purpose Of insulting him before company, is not
much better. We have not the slightest objec-
ton to Mr.. Peto, or any other member of the
British Parliament, inviting their colored breth-
rem freely to the tables or into their pulpts

You will have seen by the last Greensboro
Patriot that meeting of the citizens of Gull
ford county, was held in Greensboro, on Tues
day last, convened for the purpose of concerting
some plan for the election of abolition preachers
from this section Of country.
Though there was n slight diversity of opin-
ion as to the manner Of opening this grand
drama, the people we're unanimous as to the end
to be Accomplished and in fact as they had
thought the matter over maturely, by themselves
and talked it over long ago. they were much
more ready for action than had anticipated
A committee of FIVE was appointed to motif,
Adam Crooks and Jesse Mcbride immediately
to leave the county, and the next day they per-
formed their duty and reported that Crooks
promised immediate compliance, while Mcbride
desired time to consider. In the meantime he
(McBrde) had an appointment to preach on yes
terday Mt Sandy Ridge in the upper part Of this
county, not far from Forsytbe line; and as it
was understood notwithstanding the displays of
public opinion which he had witnessed in this

The Websterian Platform.

We commend the following condescending
notice of shareholders, to the attention Of the
from the Boston Courier, the chief trumpeter
and champion Of Mr. WEBSTER, and "natonal''
Whiggery in that city. In republshing from
the New York Tribune an apology for Mr. PoT-
TER, made by friend, the Courier says:
We are no defenders of slavery. 1t is an in
sttution every way bad bad, 80 far as the slaves
are co cerned and bad, 80 far as the masters are
concerned. There is not one word to he said in
its favor. But that all shareholders are necessa-
rily cruel or wicked-that they are of "very low
nature"-we do not believe: on the contrary
we believe that among them are many good
men, and humane men, sensible of their moral
obligations, and anxious for the good of their
slaves.

Loud, long and obstroperous have been the
rejoicings over the action of the Democratic
convention recently assembled at Reading. The
big organs, and the little Ones. devoted to the
patchwork plan of pacification, called the CON-
promise, have Landed it in language of the high
est hyperbole. But the following statement of
an important fact, not patent on the face of the
proceedings, tends to mar somewhat the merit
80 strenuously insisted upon.

The determination, so boldly avowed, to give

The famous exploit Of Mrs Partington, SO hap

additional motive to all our countrymen who
