Meeting of Freedmen In LouisviiIs-
speech Of General p Palmer.

LOUISVILLE, Jan 2.-General Palmer
addressed four thousand colored persons
in the open air yesterday. He congrat-
ulated the audience that slavery was
ended forever in the United States, and
the colored people, having ceased to be
slaves, had no longer interests which
separated them from the mass OF the
American people That to this CONT
nent had been reserved the glory of a
second example Of the deliverance of a
whole people from slavery; that now, for
the first time, ours is the land OF the
free, and that hereafter the government
is to be maintained by giving full effect
to it's own principles, that hereafter, be-
fore the law, there would be no other
difference between the colored race and
others than of color that in the nature
of things, tor years to come, the colored
people of this country must be labori-
Gus, but their interests and the Interests
of white labor will be identical, but
that efforts to degrade the blacks, to de-
grade their labor, do in effect degrade
the labor of all others They are Just as
much the enemies of the white laborers
as of yourselves To compel the black
man to work for half price compels the
white man to do the same. Your inter-
ests are therefore the interests of every
white man in the country.
Heretofore the legislation has been
very much for wealth hereafter, slavery
being out Of the way, it must be for the
laborer of whatever color, to protect him
from the despotism of capital. The slave
owner will no longer be able to control
the prejudices OF the sons of toll and
drive them to support systems which
robbed them of half their earnings,
which deprive them of free schools for
taeir children and free homes for them
selyes. He expressed his qualification
at tle general kindness exhibited by the
peopieof Kentucky for their late slaves,
which, ,e said, was true, notwithstand'
ing cases If brutality and outrage, the
work OF Abandoned persons in different
parts OF the Hate He spoke of the right
OF colored pers'ns to testify in the ceurts
predicted that Within a short time all
these disabilities would beremoved; that
within a few year the question to be
| asked would be not who is white, but
who is the most honet, intelligent and
industrious. He urged industry aud
thrift, the cultivation OF kind feelings
towards all as the true salutiou of all
questions between the races, The speech
will he published entire, Itwas enthu-
siastically received. The utmost good

MOUNTAIN SPRING ACADEMY.

DEAR HoYr. The very name at the heao oi ou.

heat and garish sunshine of this month Oh august
Glad enough were we, to receive an invitation 70
make n pilgrimage thither, last week. we had
never been lust at Mountain Spring, but all around
n when we wero candidate on foot, III the delec-
table month of June. We knew that 1t was located
ns,7veon the Hurricane and Brushy Greeks, in q
community Justly noted fer its intelligence and
frank hospitality; and wo Furthermore knew that
there our honored and ancient friend, joshua
Sx1rH, presided over an excellent Academy. We
have bobbed around together in tho days ante BEL
lam; and to get drink Of Mountain Spring water,
rest from our toils inspect the crops see friends
generally, and hear JOSH. sing once again "the
man whose nose stuck out feet" was our object
In particular. All of which we accomplished
But before VIC proceed, we would just ask if you
are acquainted with JOSHUA? If not, you must
know him, for we wish you to know all good tel-
lows. When you do know him, if you do not ad-
NIT that he Gun sing good song, tell as amusing
joke, and is the prince of good fellows, then we
shall feel sorry that we persuaded You to get ac-
quainted. Our acquaintance and friendship dates
back so fur, that the memory of man runneth not
to the contrary. Now, there are vast number of
the Smith family, just as there are of the Browns
and Joneses, each bearing his own name but We
AaYe never seen but one JOSHUA SMITH, Principal
of Mountain Spring Academy. We like oil the
Smiths, but JOSH. in particular, and We like him
better every time We meet.
very large and attentive audience assembled
at this Academy on Friday evening, 18th inst, to
witness the performances of the pupils. Headed
by Capt. DAVID OWENS Band, the scholars, some
sixty in procession, marched to the Academy, when
the exercises begun. 1t is useless and would take
up too much space in your paper, to notice the per-
formance Of each pupil. Commencing at dusk and
CLOSING at II o'clock, the entertainment was varied
and pleasing and consisted of select speeches,
farces, dialogues songs, and music. The audience
were certainly well pleased, and attested their ap-
proyal by repeated applause Coils. WARREN D.
WILKES and ]. W. pIoKENs were present by invi-
tation, and delivered ollie and appropriate nd
dresses.
The entire performances were very credtable to
Mr.. SMITH and his pupils, and proved his caro-,
skill and ability as teacher. It is also another
evidence that the people are s7c TO the Importance
of educating their children, and are resolved TO
employ the most competent instructors.
