ELOQUENT EXTRACT.

The following very eloquent passage, in
relation to Africa, we extract from the address
of Edward Everett, the present Secretary OF
State, before the American Colonization So
ciety, recently in Washington. In speaking
of the mpracticability, if not impossibility.
Of civiizng the continent of Africa by white
men he said:-
81 say again, Sir, you Caucasian, you proud
Anglo Saxon, you self sufficient, l-attempt-
ing white man, you cannot civilize Africa.
You have subdued and appropriated Europe;
and the native races are melting before you
in America, as the untimely SHOWS of April
before the vernal sum- you menace China and
Japan; the remotest isles of the Pacific are
not distant enough to escape your grasp, nor
insufficient to elude your notice; but Central
1, leu vunrrunrs yuu, uHd Uius yuu urnance.
Your squadrons may range, or blockade her
coast, but neither on the errands of peace or
on the errands of war, can you penetrate into
the interior. The God of Nature, no doubt,
! for wise purposes, however inscrutable, has
drawn across the chief inlets a Gordon you
cannot break through. You may hover on
the coas, but you dare not set foot on shore.
Death sits FORTRESS at the undefended gate
ways of her mud built villages; yellow and
Intermittent fevery, blue plaques, and poisons
that you can see as well as feel, await your
approach. AS you ascend the rivers Pesti-
lence shoots from the mangroves that fringe
their noble banks, and the glorious sun, which
kindes all inferior nature into teeming, burst
ing life, darts disease into your .languid sys-
TEN. No, you are not elected for this mo-
mentous work.-The great dsposer in anoth-
er branch of His family, has chosen out
race-descendants of this torrid region, chill
dren of this vertical sun,--and fitted them by
ages of stern discipline, for this gracious
achievement.
'Fron, foreign realms, and lands remote, supported
by his care,
They pass, unharmed, through burning clmes, and
breathe tile tainted air."

GOING BACK TO [BEYoNDl THE DARK A
GEs, WHEN MIGHT MADE RIGHT.-A bill has
been reported in the Virginia House of Del
egates, which provides for the appointment
of overseers, who are to be required to hire
out at public auction, all free persons of color
to the highest bidder, and to pay into the
The Belmont chronicle, and farmers, mechanics and manufacturers advocate. [volume] (St. Clairsville, Ohio) 1848-1855, 1853-02-18

State Treasury the sum accruing from such
sale. The sums are to be devoted in future
to sending free persons Of color beyond the
limits Of the State. At the expiration Of five
years, all free persons Of color remaining in
the safe are to be sold into slavery TO the
highest bidder, at public auction, the pro-
ceeds Of such sales to be paid into the public
treasury, provided that said persons of color
shall be allowed the privilege Of becoming
the slaves Of any free white person whom
they may select, on the payment by such per-
son Of a fair price.

@Joshua R. Giddings, writing to the True
Democrat, condemns in strong language the
locofoco free trade and direct taxation plank
forced into the free soil resolutions. He spits
upon Spaulding's Platform, and frowns, and
shakes his angry locks at him. Our free soil
friends raised a terrible outcry against the Sth
resolution in the Wing platform of last sum-
mer, but it was not one thousandth part as
full of iniquity and mischief in its practical
operation as this miserable free trade and di-
rect taxation scheme. No wonder that the
wiser heads OF the party are alarmed at the
Interpolation Of the monster into the creed.
But how will they get it out!-Forrest city.

NEw YoRK ExTRAvAGAscE.-IIon. John
A. Dix, in a recent lecture before the IIstori.
cal Society made the following very just re-
marks:
Nothing can be more unwise than the q.
rection Of costly dwellings, which can only
be maintained by princey fortunes. At the
death Of the head of the family, and the divi-
sion Of the ancestral property, not one Of the
children, es general rule has enough to
support the establishment, and it passes into
other hands. Nothing can be more cruel to
children than TO bring them up with expecta-
tions which car lot be fulfilled, and with hab-
its Of life which hey Tre compelled to aban-
don. The parent for the sake Of few years
Of ostentation, invests a large portion of his
estate in a splendid dwelling, with the GER
tainty that his death will be the signal for the
expulsion ofhis children from it. Nothing
can be more inconsiderate if it is done
with full view of the inevitable consequences
Look for the splendid mansions of 30 years
ago, and see what has become of them.
Scarcely one remains in the family by which
it was constructed. They are boarding
houses, places of public exhibition, or the
work shops of fashions.

BALLooSrSG.-A Paris correspondent of the
NSw York Times, dated Paris, June 18th,
says "a balloon ascended from the Arena
yesterday, with heavy cannon instead of a
car. When about fifty. feet from the ground,
the match was applied by the Rronaut. who
had fastened himself in some ~ay, among the
cordage. The discharge filled the air with
li;,le gilt balls, tissue paper parachuies and a
cloud Of explosive. cracking torpedoes ,serpents
and other wh'zzing and zizzing effervescen-
ces it set the cannon swinging like a pendu.
lum, from the effects Of the rebound. and light,
ened the balloon of three or four pounds
weight. This increase in buoyancy was very
perceptlble, for its ascent was considerably
accelerated. At about the same moment, the
balloon from the Hppodrome started also on
its voy age, carrying up below it the two broth
ers Buislay, hanging head downwards, one be-
meath the other, supported from cross bars
Mere bal!ooning has long since lost its inter.
est in Paris; the attraction is now centered in
the object translated to the skies. The cannon
and the two mel up side down. drew immense
audiences. while the balloons alone would hare
attracted mcagre attendance"

Sun STRoKE.-Exposure to the mid day sun.
during the last few days, has caused large
number of deaths. In this city from Tuesday
morning till Wednesday evening, last week
sixteen persons, principally Iaboring men died
from this cause alone. The following direc.
tions for treating these cases, is said to pos.
sess much efficacy, and until the attendance of
physician is procured. it may be useful to
try it; is to be applied early to be Of any use:
"Place the patient in a cool and airy situa-
tion, with his head and shoulder elevated and
while one Is removing his cratat, nRbuttoning
his shirt collar, and removing or jooscning
whatever else that may be tight sbout his
person. dash suddenly cold water op the head
This maybe d. ne with pitcher, or my suitable
vessel, held at some little distance above the
head, pouring out upon it a large and ste
stream.
Mustard plasters may also be used over the
upper part of the feet, and on the wrists. Bu]
continue the water. and he patient must be
saved. 1t is hardly possible to speak toe
highly Of the beneficial in auences Of cold watel
in the treatment Of coup de soilel. Many violen,
cases of this, and also Of apoplexy, have been
most successfully curel by it.-Scienti6t

tax to pay the city of Vicksburg' SUBSCRIPTION
