Sir. rejoice that q "Friend to Children" honestly
records tie fact that he is totally ignorant of the char

acouented with their condition and to it them

establish a work room where girls of ~ to 10 years
Of ace may learn trades. II is for this that mothers

day after day in dispensing daily instruction at the

testimony of these may he brought in proof OF the bet

IL should be borne in mind that children of our own
families who placed III the Ward Schools have Tor
their associates class already brought INTO supccon

LECTURE UPON THE CLAIMS OF THE AT.
RICAN RACE.

Mr. JONI J. KELLY, young Indian gentleman
delivered lecture upon the above subject in the Lee
ture Room Of DR.. Penningtons Church, on Tuesday
evening DR.. Pennington was in the chair.
The lecturer commenced by stating that the most
outrageous feature of the Slave system in this country
n that it ia surrounded and protected by colleges and
scbools He argued that for two the African
race had claim to equal rights and privileges with
the white races in this country.
First. He said the African IN this country have
claim 10 equality, because when the Pilgrim
Fathers after landing at Plymouth Rock, desired to
defend themselves from the despotEm of the British
yoke they called upon all, black and white TO rally
around the standard of freedom and defend the gen
eral rights the blood of the black and white man
commingled in the defense of right. When General
Jeckson at the battle Of New Orleans be said to
the colored men: 81 know you are brave fellows,
Z" and that you will fight manfully IN defense Of our
common country
Second. The African race m this country have
claim TO equal rights because they have been born in
the country. He contended that the nativity estab-
shed preeminent claim upon those privileges boast
ed of by the American nntioO He sold that the mag
nanimiiy Of this nation demanded equal rights and
nmuniios for all men, without respect to color or
clim and he believed that the ultimate destiny OF the
colored people would be settled by themselves and
could be nodded IN nc better way than by taking due
advantage of the various privileges nov within their
reach The public schools for colored people must be
patronized, and the children trained IN the love of
knowledge, with such wise exercise Of privilege, we
would soon be able to join in the worship of the one
God with the liberty wherewih our common Jesus had
made us free.
Mr.. MARSHALL, liberated slave, followed the lee
turer in an emphatic and telling speech, urging upon
the colored people the duty of providing for them
selves the means Of indeT epdeDce.
DIR PESEKGTos brought the lroceedings 10 close
by PRAYER and benedicton. There only about
thirty persons present, mostly females.

METHOD FOR EXTRACTING METALS FROM
THE HUMAN SYSTEM


To ae Editor Of TIE N. Y. Tribune
SIR: Having observed in your journal an article
copied from Columbus Ohio Journal which has also
appeared since in several prints, describing Method
for Extracting Metals from the Human System fad
the process 80 much like the one l have been
praciicng in this City ever since 1852, that con-
slider il proper to spprize the public that what the
pretended inventor calls his discovery, not only be-
longs TO me- but that the process therein described
not effective for the purpose so stated The following
is an extract from the Union Medtcae in 1884, the
circulation Of which is very extensive in France,
England and other countries:
introduced BY Professor Nergnes
the backs OF whose hsnds were seriously reesisd
prcess Of gliding II verng by the aSsnc Battery Mr.
Nerrpes having immered his hands IN an micA
hath at the positive pole 81 very powerful pe metallic
nate Of several inches surface IN garter OF an hour
covered with silver few baths proved sufficient TO cure the
liberation heh had resisted The not active remedies th
tial " a. made in NeYork the 10th Of April lel and
since successfully followed BY Others thus leading
the hoduetior Of Method Sr Extracting Metals
hom the Human system
The nature Of the operation and process, he's been
evidently misunderstood by both Youngmsn and
Seneer as the handle producing positive electricity
should he Of iron and covered with some ecldutated
hnon The body Of the patient, when wholly IN bath,
when the feet alone there, must be isolated from
the metal OF the tub or basin by piece OF board
about an inch thick. They have also not correctly
described the liquid to be used in the BATH IL varies
according the nature Of the metal to be extracted,
which sometimes requires the use Of Bicarbonated
Soda for The purpose.
In justice, You viii doubtless admit this my claim,
into the columns OF your paper that articles in foreign
iournale giving description of my EectroC Chemical
baths and process may not occasion the rising up OF
multitude Of inventors all claiming the same credit.
Respectfully yours, yERGNES.

marks respecting slaveboding gospel which may
perhaps lead the uniformed reader TO suppose that
