II William Davis, q "contraband" from
Fortress Monroe, lecturcd in City Hall last
Monday evening. Mr.. Davis made an ur-
gent appeal in behalf of his race. He urged
the right, justice and policy Of freeing and
educating the slaves.
The object of his mission, is to awaken an
interest in the public to the Importance Of
educating those slaves who have been made
free in the course Of the present year.
He said it was mistake to suppose the
slaves did not desire their freedom. Hismis-
tress thought he did not, but Mr.. ID. thought
she had now changed her mind. lie ALEC
confuted the notion that the slaves could not
provide for themselves.
The hall was filled to overlooking, and
many went away unable to gain admission.
