TIE LINCOLN UNITERSITY.

We pint elsewhere extracts from All address
recently delivered by Thomas Webster, jr., esq.
OF Philadelphia, to the students OF "the Lincoln
university" an institution for the education
Of young men Of African descent. established ut
Oxford, Penn. OF this University correspond
ent writes to u.s. "Wthin two years four chairs
"have been endowed, each on the sum of
$4,000 one by the iberality of w. L. Dodge,

"and one by Mrs. Mary Dckey, her husband,

endowed at once, and the capacity Of the
buildings doubled. More than half Of the
students were slaves few years since and
cover forty were soldiers. The Lincoln Uni

There has been 80 much wicked nonsense
written, and printed, and spoken about the
Blacks, with such superficial and sophistical
show of scientific reasoning both against their
claims to be considered human beings at all,
and admitting their quasi humanity against
the possibility OF bringing them up TO point
of even average cultivation, that the mere ex-
istence of College for their education as
endowments OF of its curriculum because, unless
these white persons who give their time, their
labor, and their money to such seminary are
infinitely and incurably imad, like devisors
who leave their estates to dogs and .cats-un-
less, for instance, this Lincoln University y
is a wilder folly than any the world ever be-
fore witnessed, the Blacks are proved by the
very existence Of the school to DO hu-
man beings, and as a logical seQtitur,
to be capable Of cultivation. The thing settles
itself A devise to the Lincoln University for
tho education of Blacks would DO good in
law. A devise for the endowment of n college
for guerrillas and ourang outangs would be bad
in law, and the testament containing 1t would be
set aside, even though the legacies were to
trustees for the benefit of tho beasts. Now, u

by the Law as Men are Men, IL the dark-cOl-

rfpersons of African descent cannot be morally
and scientifically regarded as human beings, then
are whole pages of the Statute Books of every
State the sheerest middle and absurdity which
ever got itself into print; and this is char
acter, moreover, which might be assigned with
ten-fold force and propriety to the laws made
by the late Slave States for the government of
of Blacks, for even these laws. cruel and bar
barous as they were. recognize human con-
science in the Blacks, and their consequent res
possibility.
We trust, for the honor of this nation that
the world is about to witness here an attempt
upon a great scale TO raise and to refine, COM
paratively a race which for more than two cen
turtles has been studously degraded by every
device which all the ingenuity of an unlimited
power and all the precaution of an unmanY
fear could suggest. There are those who hope
for failure as we'll as those who predict sue
cess; but, unfortunately, almost every scheme
thus far hit upon has had certain partisan fea-
lures, and has been approved or condemned
quite in advance, according to the political
procivities of its observers. The result OF this,
unless it should be corrected, must be judg-
ments enormously nasty, and inpatient conclu-
sions unwarranted by fair and honest expert
monts. A great project for the permanent
amelioration Of tho social status of
class cannot be carried out in a month.
or in year Nor should 1t be depend
ent for its success merely upon Acts OF
Congress or the shifting phases of popular
opinion We are always rcjoiced, therefore,
whenever there is to be an effort to educate
the Black, to find its supporters acting upon
permanent basis, with full leisure and oppor-
tunity upon their side. We believe, whenever
an attempt has been made TO train the Black
in this reasonable way, that it has always sue
ceeded; and every honest man will agree with
ms, considering social difficulties which requires
10 prescience TO foretell, that the experiment
of literally educating a considerable body OF
Colored Men is we'll worth trying. Whatever
may bo the opinions of others, we have no
doubt of n favorable result. At any rate, as
We cannot avoid the trial without danger of
anarchy let it DO fairly and philosOphcally
undertaken.
