The ANTl.SLAyERY AGrrATIoS.-It has
been remarked BY. some Of our leading State
men, that the course which should be pursued
in Congress by the Southern members on this
question, should be that Of perfect silence, or
in the forcible expression of the illustrious
Statesman now deceased, masterly inactivity.
The agitation Of the subjectno doub: originated
with some of the talkalive members from the
Abolition States, who feel anxious to take part
in any controversy so as they can immortal
ze themselves, and by this means secure the
appreciation of their constituents. The subject
of Ab"litionism being one Of theory, makes it
easy for the most ignorant man to make speech
in support Of the project, because he can talk
away at random without displaying to his friend
his great want ofthe requisites ola good speaker
and able Statesman. But men like the man
who set fire to the temple of Diana, are only
anxious to serve the Immortality of theirnames,
by coming in contact with great men: whose
names are inscribed on the tablets of fame by
their own great acts ard deeds.

TIE MASONIC i'Esr1vAL.-Th Celebration,
yesterday, the Centennial Anniversary of the
organization Of the Grand Lodge of Ancient
Free .MaSons, in South Carolina was a most
imposing ceremony. The Fraternity, in their
various Orders and Degrees, were present in
strong numbers, and the procession was one
of The largest ever witnessed in this city. The
season bright, balmy, and invigoraling, and
the streets were throngcd with gratitied
spectators Having reached the South Carolina
Institute, the files were opened, and the pro.
cesSiun entered in inverted order, and was
followed by citizens, until the vast Hall was
filled to lis utmost limts--the galleries present
ing brilliant array of luveliness and beauty.
After singing an anthem and prayer, an Ora.
ton was delivered by DR.. SAMUEL HENRY
Dickson, which, in its composition and delivery,
was worthy his high reputation as scholar and
IN orator. His Masonic brethren evinced their
estimate OF its merits, by passing vote Of
thanks, and requesting copy of it for pub
llcaton. After singing an ode, the Craft again
formed in procession, and marched to Masonic
tIaH, where the business of the day was
appropriately terminated

in this manner: g am gong to pray, and
want all that desire 10 be prayed for, TO send
up their names on piece of paper
On the occasion to which We refer, there was

THE ALLIED NAVAL STRENGTH IN THE BLACK
SEA.-The maritime forces of England in the
Black Sea at the present moment are as follows;
Seven sail of the line-that is, two 10 gun
ships, three SO, one 84 and one Is; three frig.
ates of is guns. three of q, three Of 90, and
one of guns. The ships with steam power
attacht d are-four with so guns, and two car
rying 101 and 12l. The screw irigates are five
in number, carrying guns from 5 to %. In ad-
dition to which there are seven other steam
frieates carrying various weights Of metal up
| screw steamsrs-formiug in all "a vessels of the
royal navy. There are no less than 800 hired
| steam transports and sailing vessels constantly
employed. Immediately before sebsstopol there
are eight screw steamers, eight steam frigates,
two corvettes, and five sailing ships, with six
cannoniers. The French have also stationed
two steam frigates and six corvettes-in all,
81 ships before the fortress. The remaining
ships of the Allied squadrons are at ksmeseh

A FAST" CHILD.-Children have sometimes
peculiar way of saying things very subversive
Of gravity in the old folks.
Mr. Frederick Fitzgerald Smith had luxuri-
GUS growth of whiskers. The lower part of his
countensnce was entirely enveloped in hair from
ear to ear. The piloDs vegetation stood out in
large, matted, tangled and curly magnificent
masse' all over his jaws and chin, Indeed, it
was commonly reported that he had taken pre-
MUM on it at q fair held by the society for
/" ameliorating the condition Of the Jews, and
encouraging the growth of the hair"
Nature, if too profuse in her gifts in one di-
rection, is very apt to correct the redundancy
by compensatiye deficiency in another.
So it happened with Mr Frederick Fitzgerald
Smith. ALI over the upper part of his head
above his ears was very curly. But per contra
:" He had no hair the top Of his head
In the place where the wool ought to grow.o
Mr. Smith lodged one night and breakfasted
at the house Of Mr.. John Simpkins, his friend
Mr.. Simpkins had, like every parent who has
children, very smart little girl 1t is sur
prising how many smart children there are now
a-days! At the breakfast table young Miss
Arabells Simpkins could not take her eyes for
one moment from the patriarchisl countenance
| of Mr. Smith E-l8 ,=zs
Mrs. Simpkins, primus.
Arabells, eat your toast" froFned Mr
Simpkins, secundus
But Arabella kept staring al MIR Frederick
Fitzgerald Smith.
Betty, remove this naughty girl from the
table, cried Mr. simpkins, in rage.
81 don't want to go, ma. don't!. squalled
the smart Arabella al want to look at thai
man little longer. Don't you see. ma, he hal
got his head on wrong side up!'
The young lady was living and doing well a
last accounts, but it is difficult to conceive hoN
| she can survive.
