National Convention of Colorcd Americans

A call appears in Frederick Douglass Pa
per for National Convention of free colored
persons to be held in Rochester, New York,
commencing OIL the 9th Of july 1853. The
call is uumcrously signed by citizens Of diff
ftrcnt States. Alter enumerating the causes
which demand such Convention, the call
proceeds:
"Among the matters which will engage the
attention Of the Convention, will he propo-
sition to establish u NATIONAL Council Of
our people with view to permanent exist
encc. This subject is one Of vast importance,
and should only he disposed of in the light of
n wise deliberation. There will come before
the Convention matters touching the DISPOSE
tinn of such funds as our friends abroad,
through Mrs. Harriet Beecher Stowe, may
appropriate to the cause of our progress and
improvement. In n word, the whole field Of
our interests will bc opened to enquiry, i'll
vcsignlion aud determination.
"That this may he done successfully il is
desirable that each delegate to the Conven-
ton should bring with Him an accurate state
ment MS to the number of colored inhabitants
in his town or ghborhood-thc amount Of
property owned 10y them-their business or
occupniion-the state of education-ihc cX-
tent OF their school privileges, and the num-
her of children in attendance, aud any other
information which mny serve the great pur-
poses of the Convention.
=" In order tina, no community shall be rep
resented beyond IT'S due proportion, 1t is in
tended that the Convention shall only be
composed of regularly chosen delegates, ap-
poiuied by public meetings, aud bearing
credentials signed by the President of said
meetings.
alt is recommended that all colored
churches, literary and other societies, banded
together for luudnble purposes, proceed ut
once to the appointment of at least one, and
not more than three, delegates 10 attend the
National Convention. Such persons rs come
from towns, villages or counties, where no
regular delegate may have been chosen, shull
he received aud enrolled as honorary mem
bers of the Convention.

state Rights.

The N. Y. Post copies an article from the
Charleston Mercury, in reference to the case Of
the colored British seaman, now before the
courts, testing the constituiionality Of the laws
imprisoning colored strangers who visit that
state. The Mercury condemns the resolution
Of the Legislature appropriating money to
prosecute the suit, as such an appropriation
was a recognition of the right to question the
constitutionality and supremacy of South Car
olna law. Tho writer thinks it much more
in keeping with the dignity of the state, to
serve all who would question their Law s, as the
Massachusetts, envoy, Mr.. Hoar, was served
some years ago. Expelled by mob got up by
authority of the Legislature. The Mercury
forgets that they were then dealing with Massa-
chusetts, but now with Great Britain. A very
different customer. This is going the state
rights doctrine pretty strong. There would
seem very little left for the supreme court to
do, If the states are thus independent, and su-
preme. Their legislation beyond question:
Two can play at that game. And if the North
should undertake it, slave catching and slave.
holding would be at a discount. Suppose We
try it. Our vote is for it.

Education Prohibited In Virginia.

"The officers made n descent yesterday

hood of the Stone Bridge, by Mrs. Doug

geiler with their sable pupils, were taken

Although well aware that the laws of
most of the Southern States prohibit, under

ored population, we believe that no prose-
cution under them has recently taken place,
aud we were surprised Mt the above an

Virginia laws, but we regard the above
movement as one worthy of the dark ages.
We are intimately acquainted with the ladies

Douglass is Soulherner, by birth, educa-
ton and feeling, aud has always resided in

VOL. 8

Of the race, depends on the relation Of man to
woman, and woman TO man. Sure am, that
this relation can be regulated only by the
love.spirit, that draws man and woman into
true relations. OF all things, women, and men
too, engaged in this controversy between wom-
en- and men, should take caro- that a spirit OF
rivalry and competition is not engendered by It.
Wendell lays clear the doctrine that no human
being is to be taken care Of by other human
beings-none to have the custody Of another ;
except, the custody nature and true love, gives
to each and every one, over each and every
other. The state should give to the wife tho
custody Of the husband, in the same sense In
which it gives the husband the custody OF tho
wife,

A NATIONS DlsoRAoE.-Says the National
Era of the 26th ult.; "a colored man So years
of age, was sold in this city on Monday last, by
Avenue, for $3.50. How long shall this be
permitted on National territory" The Era
speaks of the public sale being "discountenanc-
ed" by the citizens of Washington. 1t is high
time it was. That is something, that the citi-
zens of Washington should treat the sale of old
men in their public avenues, just as the Wings
treat agitation. There is yet room for them to
grow-may they soon get to feel indignation
and annihilate instead of discoutenance.

A MIsTAKE.-A late number of the Christian
Statesman, published by Rev. L. Smith, con-
tains an anonymous communication from this
place, in regard to the late Bible convention
held here, in which the writer says that "Mr.
Barker challenged the whole clergy to defend
tho Bible against the charge of supporting Sla-
very" This is mistake. Mr. Barker avowed
his willingness to meet any clergyman in dis
cussion OH the claims of the Biblo to a divine
and supernatural origin, and such discussion
he is about to have with Mr.. Hartzcll, commen-
cling on the first Monday of July. We heard
his challenge on the occasion referred to, and

TRUB IF NOT wITTY.-The Journal Of Com
merce calls the Liberator the "Lie.5e-, ater,''
and some other papers seem to think 1t vastly
"good thing" Mr. Garrison accepts the witty
saying as quite true, and gives this its charac-
ter, as sufficient reason for so often 5eratin0
the mendacious Journal of Commerce.
The Commonwealth say of it: "This seems
like confession from our pro-slavery friends
that their position which the Li5syator is accus-
toned to 6erafe so vigorously, is, in their own
view, q He."
