to seven vessels, viz: the Penguin, Owl,

Shall tho EducatioH OF the

aged?
There is no subject Of more Importance
to lis just now, than the education of our
children, and OF our people generally; and
which should engage attention, and receive
that practical aid and encouragement SO
necessary to its successful prosecution. Not
only is it important to us, as II people, but
it is also important to our State, and country.
For, what ever our eucmics may say Of us,
still are we Il component part Of the pco-
pic vi this country where each are to some
extent, dependant upon tho other; and, in
proportion us the misses are educated, and
refined, Just III that proportion is our country
prosperous and happy.
This our authorities, and every body else

courage the education Of the cclorcu ]pcuplc?
Will they recognize the just claims Of the
colorcd people to the benefits Of our Free
Schools, or, will they attempt to reject US
OH account OF color! )
We know that prejudice against us in this
direction, rs i'll others, are} strong. We
know that tic white people object tothcir
children being Scloolcd alongside Of ours,
fearing that their tender Shoots, coming III
contact, with 1" The out stinks Of the negro
will wither and die, in an atmosphere like
this, where infectious may be inhaled from

that many OF the most rcincd we're nurscd

They may therefore cxspcct 10 be- able tC
exclude us from these Schools, this We OK.
spcct viii be arranged to the satisfaction OF
all. There is one thing certain however,
and that is that the culored people has
claims in this direction which should b,
respected. They have always paid 4 Free
school tax = thus rc-imbur.iag the State
for monies spent i'll the erection, and main
t%ainancc Of School Houses, i'll Which thei1
own children never WAS permitted to b,
taught.

and, in the . Restoration Of our publ,

claims however arc not valid in the opinio,
Q ftlosc i'll whose HANDS they are, may no
other consideration induce those for whom
the act, to make provision, or appropriation
to this end. And thus practically aid anc
encourage that, which must rebound tc
