man, woman and child, who will spend any
money for fireworks or luxuries Of any de-
scription, to drop one penny in tho fund of
the Mount Vernon Association. There will
be boxes placed in the Confectionery Stores
for that purpose, where all will be accommo-
dated with an opportunity of contributing
their mite. The ladies of Delaware, are inter-
ested in this matter, and we are pretty we'll
convinced, that the gentlemen will not let
them be behind the times in any of their
charitable undertakings. Delaware has taken
an active part in the purchase of the tomb Of
Washington, and she is kind of committed to
the project; consequently she must not be
behind in her contributions, 10 aid in the
great work. The mode adopted by the ladies
OF our city, to raise the wind, is IN ingenius
one, and will no doubt be the means of con-
trbuting something considerable towards the
funds Of the association. Remember the PEN
mics, they will not burst any one.

The INDIAN MgErINa.-At a meeting of a
number of our citizens held at the City Hall,
on Thursday evening last, TO form an associa-
ton to aid in the amelioration of the Indian,
in the far west, Joseph NJ. Barr, was called
to the Chair, and DR.. Craig, appointed Secre-
tary. The venerable John Beeson, from Ore
gon, addressed the meeting, in an able and
feeling manner. He portrayed the wrongs
the Indian receives at the hands of the white
man, and how grossly he is misrepresented
by the press, and those interested in his ex-
termination.
This is a cause in which every feeling white
man, should feel 9 deep interest. 1t is the
decline Of a noble race, who are fast passing
away before the superior mind of the white
man. In few short years, and the aborigines
ofthis Continent will have become n matter Of
history--hs home and his country, no longe-
affording him shelter. The beasts OF the
field find protection from the strong arm OF
civilization. but 10 the poor savage has no
refuge but the grave. Where are the mis-
| sionary societies, who are raising thousands
of dollars to enlighten the heather, and to
plant the standard Of religion in far of lands
his work does not extend to our own Cont
nent, nor ia the voice Of the clergy raised for
our own noble race--a race that we should be
proud of, that we should foster, aid and pro-
tect, We should secure their lands to them,
that they may have foothold on the earth,
from which the destroying angel will forever
be- debarred. Ii this were political scheme
in which is money to be made, we would have
found the meeting largely attended by these
worthy patriots. But as II was purely Apply
lantropic movement, we neither found politi-
clans or preachers present.
A committee composed Of all the Editors OF
the City, was appointed to draft a Constitu-
ton, to govern the future organization. 1t is
the intention of this association to aid, in
makius the effort, 10 get Congress to sci apart
Territory, for the use Of the Indian. God
speed tho enterprise--let the well meaning
portion of the community come forward in the
good cause, and lend helping hand to snatch
from oblivion, this fast fading race.
| A committee Of five was appointed to pre-
pars business for the next meeting. The
meeting adjourned to Thursday evening the
18th inst.

NEW hiETHoD FOR THE Piano foRTB, The
new work bearing this title, by Prof. Charles
Grobe, just issued from the press of Lee &
Walker, of Philadelphia, has been enthusiasts
tically received by the public. The publish
ers say that for elementary teaching it is SUI
perior to any work in existance. II is emin-
emily the book for the people, and cannot too
STRONGLY be recommended. 1t is the result
Of the ripe experience of its author, and in
valuable to teachers and pupils. The pupil
ia led by easy and pleasant means gradually
and certain to the desired end. Nothing ia
anticipated, nothing hurried. The dryness so
often complained Of in works Of instruction
is altogether avoided. It is the most simple,
clear, progressive, and judicious systom OF in.
struction extant its study will be rather
pleasure than work for the pupil II is ex-
tremely practical; none better for beginners.
The theoretical instructions do not precede
the practical portion of the work as in other
books, but are combined herewith. The
work contains ten engraved fguers, illustrat-
ing the different positions OF the hands and
fingers also, the pronunciation Of ina2y ItaI-
