The following gem of truism from the
pen of Senator Grimes, was first brought
to light a few eeks ago through the col
umns of the Conservative, published at
Memphis, Missouri, by John Gharky, for
.merly of the Pioneer, West Union. The
article from which the extract was taken,
was written to one of the senator's politi-
cal friends, and by mere accident came
into the possession of the Conservative ed
itor, who assures his readers that the COM
munication is made over the genuine sig
nature of Mr.. Grimes
''The events of the few past years would
some of the men who achieved our liber-
ties for us, were being fulfilled. Our gov
eminent is fast becoming an elective mon
archy. The States are gradually losing
their consequence and will soon be reduced
to the condition of mere municipal appen-
dages to the central power. The influence
of the federal government is prostitutcd to
interference in State affairs, even to that
of municipal elections. The
federal government now asks to control all
the banking institutions in the States by
virtue of some law of Congress. Sinecure
Offices are created for the purpose of infiu
cncing public opinion. The army of Office
holders scattered through the States utter
ing the sentiments, disbursing the money,
and obcying the commands of the Central
Authority, govern in a great degree the
sentiment Of the country. Thus, the fed
cral government, instead of being what it
was designed to be, the mere creature and
under the control of the States, is fast be-
coming their master"
"The liberties Of the people can only be
preserved by maintaining the integrity of
the State governments against the corrupt
ing influences of federal patronage and
power"
Recently the radical senator wrote
letter intimating his intention to 'retire''
from public life at the close of his present
term-1S7l. Doubtless the people of Iowa
will retire him of their own accord unless
he changes his tactics and conforms more
nearly to the convictions he has expressed
without the least idea Of their being made
public. s.-t --.-.-

EDUCATION OF COLOuED PEOPLS.
Apublic meeting will be held in the Scien-

stituto, on Thursday evening, eth inst, at
half-past seven O'Clock, to consider the sub
ject Of the present neglected condition and
want of education of the colored people of
this State, and 10 devise means for their
relief. The meeting will be addressed by
Judge Bond, of Baltimore, and other gem
tlemen familiar with the operations of the
Maryland association for the same purpose.
All interested are invited to attend.
We trust that this call will meet with q
hearty response from our citizens generally.
The subject tproviding means of thorough
lY educating the colored race is exciting
considerable attention all over the country,
and we are aware of no good reason why
the people Of Delaware should not move in
the matter. We have large numbers OF
colored people growing up in ignorance,
whom the philanthropic and christian pub.
lie should instruct, in order that they may
become useful to themselves and the com
munity. Judge Bond is an able speaker,
and those who attend will learn much III

ditious facilities of communication, they
permitted the mercantile men of Philadel-
phia, TO run Steamboats, down the Delaware
to various points, and carry off great part
oil 1t to that city. This is equally true OF New
Jersey. When the people used to cross the
river in their little boats to supply our mar
keis with produce they invariably made
large purchases at our stores. AS long as
they came here without any cxertion or
trouble on our part ii was all right, but no
effort or outlay would be made to retain
thelr patronage. Not so with the wide
awake business men of Philadelphia. Ever
alive to their interests they saw that there
was vast trade along the shores OF the
Delaware, and took immediate measures to
afford these people the means OF reaching
their market.
For long series of years VIC have seen
the Delaware covered with steamers loaded
with freight, plying between the towns be-
low us on either side of the river and Phila-
deiphia, and although VIC were satisfied that
some, and we believe nearly all that trade
could be brought to this city, there has
never been enough public spirit OR liberality
TO make road TO and build wharf on
the Delaware, where steamers could stop.
We think we see in the movement at the
Institute last week change in regard to
this matter. A new era is about to dawn on
our city. A spirit of liberality and pro.
gress is manifesting itself in business circles,
will ere long produce good results. Whether
it be Railway Or plank road, it is imma
terial, but let there be street opened, q
wharf placed on the river front, and othei
Improvements will soon follow.
Let every merchant, business man ant
capitalist feel that he has an interest in the
matter, share in the labor, and the result
will be such as will be gratifying to every
friend OF progress in our midst, and adt
much to the commercial and manufacturing
prosperity Of our city.
