DR. ]. 6. NEWBURI:
sn-J. R. Brown, Esq requested me to
write you short statement of the cOndi-
ton Of our schools here. In compliance
with his request drop you this note.
Our school in its present form has been
in operation four weeks. The school is
taught here in the basement of one of the
largest churches in this city it is capable
of holding three hundred scholars, and is
one Of the best school rooms in the com.
munity. It was rented by Mr.. Brown
for the use Of the school, for which he pays
5000 year. We have now on our list 257
scholars, and q regular attendance Of 2S7.
1 have two teachers besides myself. The
teachers, including myself, are employed
by Mr.. Brown, who is responsible to them
for their pay. We charge each pupil hfty
cents per month, but not more than one
fourth viii be able to pay that amount
The. most of the people who have children
attending this school are very poor. In
many instances we have to elothe the child
rem, and in come instances furnish them
with food.
There is another school in the city, the
tuition Of which is one dollar per month.
It has been in operation several months,
and hiss most Of the paying scholars. Ours
arc mostly from the novels of the extrem-
est poverty. More than huGdred Of them
are from the cotton plantations of Arkan-
sss. Their parents are the very personif-
cation of degradation and ignorance
They care nothing about educating their
children and can only be induced TO send
them to school free Of charge, and clothes
and food thrown in, but these children
must be brought under the influence Of
education and religion.
We have q Sabbath school, also, in the
same room in which our day school is
taught It was commenced last Sunday
there were present one hundred and sixty
four scholars and twelve or fifteen teachers;
both schools are looking promising.
Mr.. Brown and wife are feeling q deep
interest in the schools, and are doing all
in their power for their prosperity, ssyou
will see by what have written. Mr.. Brown
has taken upon himself great primary as
we'll as moral responsibility, and he de-
serves the sympathy and aid Of the friends
Of education, religion and humsnity, all
over the country. The owners Of our
school room look to him every month for
sixteen dollars and sixty six cents; and
we, the teachers, look to him for our daily
bread, while two hundred and fifty seven
children look to him for wood TO warm
them while at school. He must lock to
the friends in the East for the means to
meet these demands. know he will not
look in vain.
There is now comparatively but little
suffering among us, and tho prospects are
that q bright spring is opening. I hope
soon to see praise and cheerfulnees pre-
vail in our city. Do help US with the
school.
am, yours truly, for the elevation of
the poor,

He gives some new sketches Of what he
saw at the "Silver Banks" near Hayti /:
The banks Of the coral on which my
divings were made, are about forty miles
in length, and from ten to twenty in
breadth. On this bank Of coral is pre-
seRted to the diver one Of the most besuti-
ful and sublime scenes the eye ever be-
held. The water varies from ten to one
hundred feet in depth, and is SO clear thst
the diver can see from two to three hun
dred feet when he is submerged, with but
little obstruction to the sight. The bot
tom Of the ocean, in many places, is as
smooth as marble floor; in others it is
studded with coral columns, from ten to
one hundred feet in height, and from one
10 eighty feet in diameter. The tops Of
those more lofty support myriad Of pyrs-
midal pendants, each forming myriad
more; giving the reality to the imsginHry
abode Of some water Dymph. In other
places the pendants form arch after arch

the ocean, and gazes through these in the
deep winding avenue, he finds that they

Death of Owen Loveior.

Owen Lovejoy, the member Of Congress
from the Fifth Illinois district, died in
Brooklyn at hslf-past eleven o'clock last
night. He had been complaining since
last January, but came 10 this city from
Washington on the 18th, and the follow
ing day was out Of doors; since then he
has been confined to his bed from an Af-
fection of the liver and kidneys. he was
attended in his last illness by his wife
and daughter, and by many sympsthizing
friends.
Mr.. Lovejoy was self-msde man. Born
in Kennebec county, Me-, i'm 1911, he
passed his boyhood working on q farm,
and paid his way through BoWdoin Col
lege by teaching anhnni 9iudying theUl-
ogy, he received q call to the psstorste of
the Congregational Church ct Princeton,
Illinois, and oficisted there for sixteen
years, until, in 1854, he was elected to
represent his district in Congress, where
he was prominent as bold and fearless
advocate of freedom for all
In 1857 his brother, Rev. E P. Lovejoy,
an anti-slsvery editor, WAS murdered at
Alton Illinois, by pro-slsvery mob; and
since then Owen Lovejoy had, naturally
enough, manifested a deeper intensity in
his hatred Of slave institutions; and to
those of the opposite party his bold, un-
spsFiDg denuncistiOns had rendered him
peculiarly obnoxious.
Among the incidents Of his political
career it will be remembered that shortly
after the struggle for the Speaker in the
House, which resulted in the election of
Mr.-noW Genersl-Banks, Mr.. LoTejoy
was speaking very earnestly when he
was interrupted by Pryor, Of Virginia,
who said he did not wish to hear any more
of isuch trash"
To This Mr.. LOvfjoy replied that for six
weeks the House had listened to the
"tIssh" Of the democratic members, aud
it now was his turn. Mr. LoVejoy was at
once supported by the Republican mem
bers, and Mr.. Pryor by the southern dem
ocrsts-since, secessionists. 1t was q
really notable struggle for the msinten-
snce Of free speech in our Congressional
halls, ami had for an incidental result,
the famous Potter and Pryor challenge
duel which never took place.
Mr.. LoVtj6y was exceedingly popular
in the district which he represented, where
be possessed great influence, and where
his free and bold discussions Of political
questions, while he was yet pastor, aided
to form the political opinions of his con-
stituents. he was as honest as he was
fearless. In private life he was smisble
and irreprosohsble.
Mr.. LoVejoy's funeral will probably take
place on Monday afternoon, and Rev. DR..
Storrs, Rev. DR.. Cheever and Rev. Fl. W.
Beecher are expected TO oficiste.-M. 2.

Proceedings In the English Parliament.
The last steamer from Europe brings an
account Of another debate in Parliament
upon American affairs. 1t was chiefly dis
tnguished by the malignant and infuria-
ted attack Of Mr.. Roebuckl upon the En-
Tlish government and for his blsrney
about that Of the United States. he seems
to hsve been very much infuristed because
prudence prevailed in the councils Of the
English People. He was in favor Of
war. The tone Of the FIRST Minister twas
in the first place like that Of cookatOo,
or the sCOlding of an angry woman
The Foreign Secretary "seemed fright
e.ed by the bluster Of the Federal Gov
ernment" Mr.. Roebuck declared that he
was glad the rebel pirates had chased the
American commerce from the face Of the
wsters. The infuristed n P, Fpcke in q
style very CHARACTERISTIC eff the fierce dec
lGnation indulged in at Richmond. The
American war, he declared to be q blot up
on human nature. When it was said that
Mr. ROsbuek should have any sympathy
with the North, he says:
81 tEra IN absolute disgust from their hy-
Poenisy. They arc corrupt, they are eoWGrd-
y, they are base, and they are cruel. "
Lord PslmerstOn replied to Mr.. Roebuck
to defend the English government.
Mr.. Kinglske also replied, and said in
explanation of the attack of Mr.. Roe
buck:
Tie American people should also be
feninde1 that the same speaker who used
this Language Of them, spilled the same
language which r-4 House had just heard,
to Lord Russell, declaring that his utter.
anees were like hs SCREENINGS Of g cOcka.

was to be hoped that the Americans would
be as indiFerenttO the language used by
the honorable gentleman as he was sure
Lord Russell would be when he heard that
he had beez Tilipended by the honorable
and lea1red gentleman y
The -eOPle OF this country are in no

purity Of their motives, the nobility Of
their cause, and in their ability to meet

Mr.. Vsllandighsm authorizes the Cop
perhesd organs Of this city to say, that it
was without his consent that his name was
used in the Ohio State Convention as q
delegate to the Chicago Convention, AS
the martyr was most effectuslly defeated,
it is not strange that he should disavoW
being candidate. Thus was carried out
Mr.. VaIlandighsm's doctrine Of reprisals.

the Ohio Democracy, in return, Ia him
out. Little Sam. Cox, who came to Wind
scr last fall to visit the martyr, and laid
his head on the bosom Of the great bsnished,
was the most active man in the Conven-
ton working to defeat the Valsndighsm
men. Cox would willingly see the martyr
burned at the stake, if it would secure
him another term in Congress. Such is

tention; it resembled sea fan Of im-
mense size, Of vsriegsted colors, and the
most brilliant hue. The fish which inhab.

ferent in kind sss the scenery was varied.
They were Of all forms, colors, and sizes

like sun-fsh; from those Of the dullest
hue to the ohangeable dolphin; from the
spots Of the leopard to the hues of the sun
beam; from the harmless minnoW to the
yoracious shark. Some had heads, like
SQUIRRELS, others like cats and dogs; one
of small size resembled the bull terrier.
Some dsrted through the water like me-
teors, while others could scarcely be seen
to move. To enumerate and explsin all
the various kind of Ssh l beheld, while
diving on these banks would, were
enough Of a naturalist so to do, require
more than my limits will allow, for l am
convinced that most Of the kinds Of fish
which inhsbit the tropical seas can be
found there. The sunfsh, savfsh, starfsh-
white shark, blue or shovelnose shark
were often seen. There were also fish
which resembled plants, and remained az
fixed in their position as shrub; the only
powers they possessed was to opend shu
when in danger. Some Of them resem
bled the rose in full bloom, and vera O
all hues. There were the ribbon fish, from
four or five inches to three feet in length

feet in length. They build their houses
