Learn to say. II do not know" and II

tinctness and emphasis Men will then be-
leve you when you say, Il do know" and
II can afford it." Never be ashamed to
pass for just what you truly are, and who
you are. and you are on solid ground. A
man is already of consequence in the world
| when it is known that we can implicitly rely

thing, he will do. Such reputation will
give man more real enjoyment, and is "f

the exception was TO be VOID unless the
Antilles were relinquishcd. In 1852, the
French Government gave notice, if the
interdict should be continued, resort would
be had to African immigration. The gov
ernment was as good as its word. The
French Government steamer went to
Whydah, the Irnciple slave port in the
Blight of Benin. and endeavored to buy up
a cargo of twelve hundred "immigrants.'
The Spanish slave traders, however. with
better business tact, and having unrestrict-
ed market to supply in Cuba, bought up all
the Africans brought to Whydah by the
news of the French demand, at prices
which the French could not afford to pay,
and thus, while three Or four Spanish slave
ships escaped with full cargos, the French
man was at last obliged to leave Whydah
with only single slave on board.
After this failure the Stella proeeedad to
the river Gaboon; but, as the country there
is too thinly inhabited to furnish many
slaves, the vessel made the best of her way
to Congo. But the Congo is Portuguese
possession, and the Government of St. Paul
de Loando Immediately despatched a ship
cf war to warn the Stella against carrying
on the trade in the African possessions of
his Mcjesty; and, although the French
Commodore arrived in frigate to support
he Stella, so resolved were the Portuguese
authorities that they sent their whole naval
force into the Congo to enforce the prohibi-
ton. The Stella has consequently been
compelled to remove out Of the Portuguese
limits in order to buy emigrants. These
operations continue the text for the recent
denuncations in the British Parliament
of the attemps of the French Government
to reopen the African slave trade. 1t is
difficult however, to discover the difference,
so far as the humanity and morality of the
two systems are involved, between French
African "emigratien' and British Coolie
apprenticeship" Practically, neither is
perceptibly better than the 'accursed traffic
carried on with less of hypocritical pre-
tence by the Spanards and New England
vessels, between tie Coast of Africa and
the Island of Cuba.
We refer to the subject now, however,
not SO much to institute a comparison be-
tween these several systems, as to demon
strate the fact that revolution is going on
in the European mind which bids fair to
undo, ultimately, pretty much all that
emancipation has done, or been trying to
do, in the Antilles these many years past.
The free negro, then, England and France
in point Of fact-are comfessing, is a
humiliating failure - so ruinous failure,
indeed, that, to reform its effects, they are
not unwilling to reopen the slave trade
thing which even the "Pro-S Slavery"
government of the United States has never
thought of doing.

CHANGE OF CIRCUMsTANCEs.-T prac-
tice of selling out paupers to the lowest
Jilder-or rather of putting up at auction
the undertaking for their support-still
prevails, it seems in some of the towns in
Maine. The Rural Inteligencer, of Gard
iner, in that State, calls attention to the
sad case of Peter Sheldon, few years ago
one of the most prominent business men of
of the State, widely known and highly
respected, several times member of the
Legislature, once member fthe Executive
Council, formerly collector of the port of
Bath, and the first mayor of Gardiner after
it became city, In old age, and reduced
to second childhood, his bodily and mental
powers exhausted, and his property all
gone, he is now pauper, dependent on a
neighboring town; and was lately disposed
of at auction to the lowest bidder for his
support.

The Convention resumed its session at II, A.

intelligent men as have ever previously been
seen in such asseInblage>. Owing to the late
ness of the hour in the previous session, before
