In the FIRST attempts Of this Company to meet
the wants Of travel to California. by providing
ships on the Pacific, i'm connection with their
ships from New York to Chagres, they were pre-
vailed upon, ut the urgent solicitation of the great
number then DESTROYS TO go out, to sell tickets for
through passages from Panama in advance, for
their ships then going round This was done
from desire to accommodate those who could
procure passages in no other quarter, aud by
which, whatever might be the detention, they
would reach San Francisco sooner than by any
other line Unforeseen difficulties, and the preva-
lence Of fever at Rio de Janero ut the time, pre-
vented their ships from reaching Panama as soon
us anticipated, and caused detention at the 18th
mus, which was increased by tho impatience Of
passengers in going forward, against the advice
Of the Company, al an earlier day than the ship
could possibly reach Panama.
These interruptions are now all removed.

for the Pacific service, have arrived at Panama,
and several of them have performed trips to San
Francisco and back. So that the Company are

important enterprise, TO which we give
our warmest commentator. The amples
success TO it!--Libuaior.
New England School Of Design for Women
The increasing importance Of all the me
chanic and manufacturing arts IN New Eng
land lead us to look carefully ut every move
Incnt which promises to extend and improve
their cultivation. AT the same time, the
large number of women dependent on their
own earnings, and with difficulty gaining q
subsistence in the few and crowded walks oi
industry now accessible to them, urges us TO
throw open new avenues of employment
well suited TO their physical constitution,
their mental tastes and talents, aud the pres
ent conditions of society.
il has seemed to us, that both these objects
may he promoted by the establishment Of
ScHooL OF DESIGN, similar to those long
ago founded in France, for the last ten
years encouraged by the Government of
Great Britain, and within year put into sue
cessful operation by private beBevolence in
our own country at Philadelphia. While the
market is oyerstocked with female labor of
the common kinds, large and increasing
demand exists for sklfiil labor and inven-
ton. This is true OF wood-eDgraving de-
signs for calicoes, muslns, and other print
cd fabrics; drawings of machinery and very
many similar branches.
A School on the plan proposed will give
instruction in these arts at n price within the
means of all; while manufacturers, publish
ers, niachiuists, and others nuy send their
srders thither, secure Of their prompt and
faithful execution.
II is proposed TO form an association for
carrying this plan into operation, each mem
Der of which shall pay three dollars or more
annually towards deiruying the necessary ex-
penses Of a room, teachers, &c, An annual
Subscription of twenty dollars will entitle q
person to place pupil at the School for
gratuitous instruction. Donations of any a.
mount will be thankfully received.
As Libary, and q collection of Models,
Pictures aud Casts, will be of great service
to the School, any contributions for this pur-
pose will be very welcome.
A meeting of Subscribers will be held on
Tuesday, Sept. 16, to choose a Board of Di-
rectors, and arrange tho business Associa- |
iion.

AFTERNOON SESSION.

Parker Pillsbury from the Business Com
mitteo, reported the following resolution, which
was supported by Messrs. Pillsbury, c. G. Bur
leigh, DIR. Brisbane, ]. w. Walker, and So
journer Truth. After which it was adopted.
Resolved, That the Anti-Slavery enter
prize is based on the immutable and eternal
principles of justice and righteousness, and
. as such, is to he prosecuted and carried out
to full and final triumph, without regard TO
my consequences imaginary or real, disas-
trous or desirable which mny follow, aud
though thrones aud dominions, principalities
and powers, in states or churches, be hurled
TO the ground, still il is our unalterable pur-
pose aud determination, in the spirit aud by
the power of truth and love, 10 press on ia
our moral warfare against slavery an now
existing in this country, until the last slave
shall sing his song of deliverance, amid the
broken and shivered ruins of this nations
government, and religion, or in the temples
and groves of repentant people who have
learned to do justice, love mercy, aud Joy
fully obey the laws OF nature and the die
tates of humanity.

lowed, in which Parker Pillsbury, G. c. Bur-
leigh, J. w. Walker, Dr. Brisbane, and Sojourn.

selves worthy of their reputation and of the
cause.
