The Funeral of Mirabeau.

day. All that can now be done is to
envelop ones self in perfumes, to
crown one's self with flowers, to sur
round ones self with music, that one
may sink quietly int everlasting
sleep" :
So said Mirabeau on the morning of
the day of his death.
He had reached che summit Of world
ly glory. He was the popular idol of
France. His statesmanship had given
to the people constitution to protect
them from tho tyranny Of courts and
kings. The king, in the presence of
five hundred Thousand people, had ao-
cepted that constitution amid the
booming of cannon, the peal of
triumphal music, and the ringing
acclamations of popular applause.
The shout that assembled when the
proud monarch swore eternal fidelity
to that charter of civil rights had
been echoed from Paris to the
Pyrenees, from the Rhine to the Alps,

lFor the New Orleans Advocate
Mr.. EDITOR:
The negro has heretofore been pub.
liely assailed as an idlel, and when
freed from the institution" now
doomed in almost every part of the
civilized world, has been, times with
out number, heralded as too lazy to
earn his bread without having some
one to drive him to it; but we have
had occasion to see the influences that
slavery in its mildest form exert over
the mind, viii, and disposition of q
race considered superior mentally,
morally, and intellectually to the
negro. The results produced are to
'us one and equal, and prove to our
own mind ecnelusively that like causes
must inevitably produce like effects.
Hence the white man under the influ-
ence Of slavery is no more energetic
and persevering when freed from its
baneful and pernioiOus influences than
the black man, and according to GER
tain rules the converse must also be
true.
