FORM COMMERCIAL ASSOCIATIONS

Mr.. EDIToR:-The present condition and
future prospects of our people have called
forth the best talents of all men of enlarg-
ed views in this country. That we are an
improving and growing class cannot be de-
MED with truth; that we are not what we
will be, nor what we ought to be, will be
conceded also. We have met in conven-
tions, we have discussed our rights, and
talked of our wrongs. Having therefore
consulted the symptoms Of our disease, let
us go on to apply some of the remedies.
Why wait for our friends to do for us what
none but ourselves can do2 We are fill
ing some situations of profit in this coun-
try; but there is one branch of industrious
enterprise that we have hitherto much neg
leeted, and without which, jim my view, no
nation or class of men ever have become
honored, wealthy, or respectable. That is
commerce. In New York and Philadel-
phia alone there is sufficient capital in the
hands of our people to commence sue
cessful commercial business, that would, in
a short time, repay the adventure, and raise
us as class at least fifty. per cent in the
estimation of the community. The waves
of the broad ocean are as favorable to us
as to our white brethren. The islands
where an exchange of commodities can be
had are almost within sbeaking distance
from us. Why, then, do we notform COM
mercial clubs in the cities, charter or pur-
chase vessels, man them, and enter into a
competition for a trade that awaits US, and
from which we would derive SO much pecu-
mary benefit coRDoRUs.

PRICE FOUR CENTS.

All around the whips and fetters fell, and
in one Joyful hour, in time, up went the
glorious chorus of response from men who
were slaves no more, who said and sung,
/" all men are created free and equal" The
joyful proclamation, by the angel made,
and the sublime chorus, and humanity's
reply, rolled over the great mountain, and
down its eastern slant, and the slaves OF
Guayaquil, Columbia, Venezuela and Bo-
livia, learnt to sing the holy notes, that
all men are created free and equal;" and
in one day deliverance came to all these
sons Of sorrow and of toll The angel then
to the West Indies few, and the men of
Hayti said, throughout that Island, all men
are free, and one million stood up enfran-
chised the anthem of deliverance was sung
IN each British Isle on the 1st of August,
1888, and 100000 slaves in one moment
became 100000 British Freemen. The
angel few to the Cape Of Good Hope, and
sung her celestial song, and in one day,
100000 bondmen cried from the Cape in
land 600 miles East and West, from sea
to sea, eve are all Free" The angel bal
anced on his pinions, few and cried in the
ears of the Bey of Tunis, and in the Egyp-
tan Ali Pasha's, that all men are created
free and equal" These sons of Mahomet
heard, and the Heaven-made-decree obey
ed, and in those lands of darkness and of
death, in one day each slave cried out, u
am freep On the 1st of April, l844, the
angel of peace and good will towards men,
blew loud and longer blast than he ever
yet had done; it was heard over the hun.
drel millions of the East Indies, saying,
"all men were created free and equal"
In moment the hereditary serf, the caste
marked millions, and slaves by descent,
for ages, in all 100000 told, started in
to life and joy, amidst rattling chains and
broken fetters falling from them, their eyes
streaming with tears, grateful to Heaven
as they flowed, and they all joined in the
glorious song which they now sung, that
all men are created Free" and "that they
were slaves no re,"-Atuan Steacart.

All over the State, those who are respon
sible for passing the bill will have to con
tend with fearful public opinion, made up
of all the women who have moral charac.
ters and religious feelings; backed by the
clergy, and assuredly by very large
majority of the members of all churches
for we must carry along with us the i'm.
portant fact, that numbers of the people
sought to be enslaved or driven out belong
to, and are members of, our various church
es, and in full communion. That these
great bodies of Christian men and women
will quietly stand by and see their humble
co-workers sold on the block to the negro
trader, is not to be expected; nor will any
set of men be supported, morally or politi-
cally, who are the authors of such law.
Nor is this half the truth. Take all the
free States, and how will the matter stand
There, those staunch and upright men who
are struggling to uphold the Constitution
and laws, and to protect the rights of the
South in the enjoyment of their slave
property, will be met by our law; will be
taunted before the million; will have it
put to them squarely whether they sane
ton this cruel measure as part of the
Southern creed, to wit; that all negroes,
and those of negro origin, can be rightly
sold into slavery, or driven from their
children and the place of their birth, at the
unrestrained will of the Southern white

hood in him, will not exclaim, 81 abhor
such law r 1t cannot be otherwise than
odious to the North.
If such measure of persecution was the
work of some new weak State, and this
thing done in corner, it would not be so
bad but Tennessee is proud, successful
community; that has for thirty years exer-
cised controlling influence in the affairs
ofthe nation; she has made two Presidents !;
has long stood in the front rank of the
great party that has governed the country
so successfully for nearly sixty years, and
therefore her legislation may well be cited
before Northern crowds, as declaring the
sentiments of the South. put it to any
minded man to say whether this law,
if it is passed, will not go far to crush ont
our friends in the North, and yet more
strongly mark the black sectional line be-
tween the free and slave States

THE TEACHING OF DEATH.

I saw my darling in calm slumber lying,
His still, pale face 50 beautiful in death
So like sweet sleep, that, hushed from tears and
signing,
looked and listened to his gentle breath.
His little hands. SO white and thin, we're folded,
Clasping the purest flowers that love could
bring;
Never was marble in such beauty moulded
God and Death only make so fair thing
| felt in awe, that God and Death we're present
| felt the presence of tho world unseen
This life SO poor, so vain, so evanescent,
And that so grand, so holy and serene.
thought how God rejoiceth in His creatures,
How he must love tn. beauty He hath made !
Why should He suffer death to touch those
features?
Why let such graees in the dust be laid?
Nav, but what aflusno0 of power creating
Must be the Makers on His kingly throne;
What consciousness of right, thus calmly waiting
For His own time to let His ways be known
Tea, all the ills which in this life we suffer-
Yea, all the clouds which our sad hearts do
raise
Ia those calm moments, only seemed to offer
Fresh reason for our confidence and praise.
Because He seemed so high SO wise, so holy,
And we so ignorant of our own needs,
Nistaking good for evil thanked him solely,
That so above us were His ways and deeds
Aud in that room of death my soul drew nearer
To the great presence of the things unseen;
The deep, dark mystery Of life grew clearer,
Until on life and death looked serene.
and looked serene upon that lovely sleeper
Kissed the pale face. which silently had taught
That death and sorrow bring us knowledge deep
er,
And deeper JOY than this dear life had brought.
So gave up my babe's sweet, warm caresses,
And laid him from my breast beneath the sod ;
My arms are empty, but my soul he blesses,
And when long for him / trust in God.
