and brilliant number and OF high order OF
merit. The Editors Table has spicy arti-
Gle on Uncle Toms Cabin Mr.. GRAHAM
having been called to account for condemn
ing it in his FEBRUARY number, says now:
1--WE repeat that Mrs. Stoves Uncle Tom s
Cabin is a BAD BooKl 1t gives an unfair, an
true picture of Southern life. It is badly
constructed, badly, timed, and made up for a
bad purpose! The work has been successful
peculiarly-but there is such a thing as
blood money speedily gained for nefarious
doings. Mrs. Stowe, it is said, has already
received $4,000 as her share other profits
from her publishers. Are the wounds in
ficted upon our common country paid for
with so small sum ingold? Our Consul,
Mr.. Kinney tells US that the book has arous-
ed, in Italy, the most vehement indignation
against Americans. The same is true in
other countries. But the work is mere
distortion Of facts-a stupendons leland
therefore we cannot admit its merit and join
its mob Of admirers. 1t is no more trae
picture OF life in the South, than jack Shop
herd is true picture of the hale and honest
John Bull-yet we learn that one publisher
in this country has made his thousands by
the sale of that most despieable novel.
+ Mr.. Fred. Douglass has read
our article with disgust" and says it may
be accounted for thus: Eve hate 'eiggersP'
He is mistaken. We have taught blacks in
Sunday school for years as duty.
" We viii pay into the hands of Char
les S Boxer, Esq, of the Girard Bank, the
sum of one thousand dollars, to be devoted to
the founding of College in the county of
Philadelphia, for the education of free black
youth ofsuperior promise:providedt three han
dred out of so many thousand abolitionssts,
who are to be taken from Graham, will each
subscribe the same amount, and pay, for the
same purpose, the cash into the hands of the
gentleman named.
