from the action of the Board setting apart
schools exclusively for colored youth; but
as they had asked for it, though by the
advice of those who knew the intrigue,
they felt in duty bound to endure it for
while at least. The Roman Catholics had
made the same request, and received a sim
liar grant, but on more favorable terms
than the colored people, because they had
their friends in the Board of Education,
and others to protect and award to them
all that could possibly be obtained by the
most favorable construction of the law.
But just at this time there was a division of
land for school purposes, and a tax imposed
as consequence, which created great ex-
element among the Catholics against this
separate school system. They petitioned
to parliament; they sued the district Board
of Education; they appealed to the Gener-
al Superintendent; and after fighting the
question through all these degrees, they at
last succeeded, during the winter of 1858,
in obtaining satisfactory decision. 1t is
remarkable that the papers here and those
editors and correspondents of the Satanic
press" with such keen optics, have not OBJ
served this great struggle between this
class of the inhabitants and the authorities
of Canada. But the Catholics, as l before
remarked, at last gained a favorable deci-
sion, and are now enjoying the benefit of
it. The colored people have also gained
a similar decision on the same question,
and are now trying to realize it results;
but in some districts, where Yankee infu-
ence and sentiment prevails, it is hard to
reap the benefit if there be any such deci-
sion.
This, sir, is the only cause Of difficulty
on the school question among us in Cana
da, and this is not an outrage against law,
as the Herald" would have you believe,
but class of community, by the use of
lawful means, laboring to secure the rights
and privileges which the law declares to
be theirs, and which are only denied them
by stealth in townships where Yankee in
fuence prevails. Is it not, then, in view
of these facts and their duty as men who
have been long subject to cruelty, outrage,
and wrong, not only sustained by the &C
cursed prejudice of the American people,
but by the Injustice and tyranny of their
so-called forms of law, to resist every ap-
pearance and form of prejudice in land
that recognizes their freedom, manhood,
and independence, and recognizes no dis
tinction on account of color2 We have no
fears for the result of these antagonistic
elements, when justice and injustice are
thrown into conflict In Canada. All that
colored men want anywhere is fair fight
and an open field, and it is only such lick
spittle journalists as the proprietors of the
Herald" Ledger" and "Press," who will
ever be heard to sigh and groan over the
results SO clearly and faithfully pictured
in "Doesticks's" veritable poem of 'Plu-ri-
bus-tah" EsoP.

A DREAM OF SUMMER.
BY J. G. WHITTIER.

~
Bland as the mornings breath of June,
The southwest breezes play,
And through it's haze the winters noon
Seems warm as summers day.
The snow-plumed angel of the north
Has dropped his icy spear;
Again the messy earth looks forth.
Again the streams gush clear.
The fox his hillside den forsakes,
The musk-rat leaves his mock,
The blue-bird in the meadow-brakes
Is singing with the brook.
Bear up, o mother Nature !" cry
Bird, breeze, and streamlet free;
"Our winter voices prophesy
OF summer days to thee ~
So in these winters of the soul,
By winter blasts and drear,
0'erswept from memory's frozen pole.
viii summer days appear.
Reviving hope and faith, they show
The soul its living powers,
And how beneath the winters snow
Lie gems of summer flowers.
The night is mother of the day,
The winter of the spring,
And ever upon old decay
The greenest moses cling;
Behind the cloud the starlight turks,
Through showers the sunbeams fall,
For God, who loveth all his works,
Has left his hope with all.

| hail the glad Spring,
With its sunshine and showers,
With its warb'ling brooks,
Gay birds, and bright flowers,
For it brings the sweet rose,
The queen of the lawn,
Whose radiant hues
Greet the bushes of dawn
The bright, blushing rose!
lis an emblem of worth
That fades not away,
Like blossoms of earth,
But sheds perfumes around
When its gay tints have fled,
Like the mem'ry that fingers
OF friends who are dead
Or like sunbeam that plays,
When the orb sinks to rest,
On the lakelet's bright waters,
And kisses the crest
OF tree-tops and mountains
That bask in its light,
Ere it fades from the earth,
Making way for the night.
And the lessons it teaches
Are lessons Of love
A love that is CHERISHED
By the angels above
And promise of hope
For that soul-cheering day,
When dark clouds of distrust
From the heart roll away.
Then cease not TO cherish
This fairest of flowers,
Let its blossoms unfold
In the early Spring hours
Let its sweetest perfumes
Lade the breezes of morn,
And the brows Of earth's fairest
Its garlands adorn.
Let it bloom in gay gardens,
And bask in sunlight
Let the dew kiss its leaflets
When day changes to night;
Let it scatter its fragrance
Through the gardens of life,
And crown with its blossoms
The end of our strife.

rived at the Capitol on the 18th. where he
was received by the firing of cannon, ring.
ing of bells and other evidences of rejoice
ing. He was accompanied by 1000 or
1900 men.
There were diverse reports as to his fl-
ture movement. There is no question
but that his govt was suffering from great
embarrassments, especially from the late
extraordinary drafts upon the treasury
In the meantime forced loans and contri-
button Of the most extraordinary character
were being levied in every direction for
the immediate necessities Of army. The
Ministsr of Finance had ordered no treas
ury drafts 10 be paid, and that the Courts
in adjudicating on the claims against the
Government or Government property
should give only give formal judgements.
The British and French ministers were
busy with their plans for compromise, in-
to which they were seeking 10 draw our
Minister McLane.
The Government at Vera Cruz was in
nearly as embarrassed circumstances from
the exhausted condition of its treasury as
that of Miramon.
An attempt would be made to effect
the organization of the Liberal army to the
north, and for that purpose Gen. Degalland
had gone to Tampico, but in the State of
Vera Cruz the want of means would COM
pei Juarez Government to act solely on the
defensive.
The Picaynne says, news from Tampico
states that the union of Tamalipas, Goa
hula and Nueva Leon troops are prepa-
ring TO unite with other states in the in-
terror to fall npcn Mexico, which it is be-
lieved can be consumated in July, if not
sooner.
The reactionary General Rimera had 4
battle with the Liberal Governor of Zaca-
tecas, at Salines, and was defeated. The
latter, Amarez, entered the city to rob or
force loan, as customary. Finding no
money in the Merchants houses he entered,
by force, those of foreign Consuls, violent
ly opened their safes and broke the seals
of the consulates, taking as much money
as suited his purpose. The Consnls are
now in Mexico, making their reclamations.

WHO ARE THE REPULIcAYs when
the Republican State Convention was
about TO assemble at Wheeling, Va, some
of the syeophants of the slave power pro-
posed that the baltimore plan be tried, and
the Convention Dispersed by Violence
But when the bone and sinew of the party,
the working men of Wheeling turned out
in numbers, the proposition to mob the
Convention was given the go-by. The
fact is significant, and indicates clearly the
opnon Of honest laborers as to which po
iltIcal party represents their interests.

sible, so as to keep Kansas out of the U,
nion till after the Presidential election, lest
her vote might exercise controlling influ-
ence in case the choice should come TO the

have now some little nope of getting the
requisite seventeen for Southern man, or
failing in that, to defeat the election by

L Tip-tOD Life,

A young man who is serving out term
in the Michigan State Prison, has written
long letter to his friends, dwelling upon
the causes which led him into crime,
and summing up the conditions of Tip
top life," as understood by rapid young
gentlemen. He SAYS: "You may not
comprehend this term, but let me explain.
By living a tip-top life, is meant first, 10 be
idle; second. to drink whiskey, or anything
else, (ond Of course get drunk;) third, to
frequent ali places of coarse fun. such as
cock-fghts, boxing matches, negro shows,
de-; fourth, to keep a concubine or two; /;
and fifth, to steel all they can lay their
hands upon. This, then, is living a tip
top life. Thus have l fallen, AMI thus will
thousands of young men fall"

Slavey Question in the NJ. Il.
Church.

The following are the positions OF The
various Conferences now represented at the
General Conference at Buffalo, on the
question of alienation of the rule in re-
lation to Slavery. The present discipline
of the Church only forbids the "6uying
and selling" of men, women and children,
with the intention of holding them slaves
Under this rule portion of the Church
have claimed that the right to hold slaves
is moi inconsistent with the discipline
The different propositions were substatial-
ly as follows:
The Erie proposition asks for change
of the rule so as TO forbid Stare holding,
or such an Interpretation declared upon the
present rule, as shall fully carry out this
design.
The Providence proposition asks for such
a change as shall declare the "buyIng and
selling Of men, women and children Wlth
the intention to enslave them, inconconslS-
tent With Christianity"
The Cincinnati proposition asks for a
change in favor of non-slaveholding with
this addition, that non-slaveholding shall
not be considered condition of member
ship.
The vote on the propositions in the va
rious Annual Conferences has been received
and will shortly be laid before the General
Conference. 1t is understood to stad as
follows:
For THE ERIE RULE.
Erie, Indiana, Iowa,
Michigan, New Hampshire, Ohio
Upper Iowa, West Wisconsin, Wyoming,
For THE PROVIDENCE RULE.
Providence, North Ohio, Black River.
East Genesee, Minnesota, New England,
Oneida.
FoR THE CINCINNATI RULE.
Cincinnati, Maine, New York,
Troy.
Strong Anti-Slayery, but not express
ing any preference.
Detroit, Kansas and Nebraska,
New York East, North Indiana,
Northwest Indiana, Peoria,
COutHeitSI Iuulaud, SOubH 1iIihol>,
The following Conferences voted against
any change of the rule; but those in Italic
are strong anti slavery, and regard the
present rule as sufficient:
Arkansas, Newark,
Baltimore, New jersey,
California, 0xegon,
Illinois, Pittsburgh,
East Baltimore, Philadelphia,
Kentucky, Virginia,
Missouri, GeReSSe.
Some of the Conferences have endorsed
two or more of the propositions at differ
ent times; one, New York, presented an
independent proposition; while most of
those not endorsing either passed radical
resolutions on the subject, desiring to sever
all connection with Shareholders.
-Four Conferences, viz: Delaware, Rock
River, Wisconsin and Vermont, have not
been heard from.
Eighty nine memorials were presented
on Friday asking for a change in the
Slavery Rule.
