camille houses; when negro wit, sense, man.
ners, refinement, and social gifts shall cap
tivate elegant circles their black skins
and woolly hair will not be regarded as q
badge Of inferiority. That they are black we
know; but we do not know that they can
become superior mechanics, artists, poets,
savans, conversationists, merchants, jurists,
or statesmen. They have now a career open
to talents and if the difference between
them and the whites is only difference Of
skin and hair, they will in time make it mani
fest. But we cannot accept their equality on
trust, without any proofs. Against their
color, merely as color, there will be no preju-
dice when they shall have demonstrated that
it is not an accompaniment of mental and
moral inferiority. If q barn-door fowl claims
equality with the lark or the eagle, he must
not stand disputing on his plumage, but show
that it covers equal strength of wing by rising
to their elevation in the air.
The negroes of this country take their new
start under very favorable circumstances.
They are not compelled to maintain struggle
for existence in a dense and overcrowded
population. The demand for labor insures
them employment, whereas if the experiment
were tried in an old country whose labor
market is glutted, itwould go hard with them
unless they we're really equal to their white
competitors. There is abundant room and
employment for them and their offspring, so
that they will have an open field for all the
energies they possess. If they fail, it will not
be because they are crowded and crushed in
press of laborers. The length of time they
have been in slavery is also an advantage to
them. 1t is beyond question that slavery has
been civilizing process. The negroes of the
United States are altogether superior
to their kindred in the wilds of
Africa-a superiority produced by inuring
them to the habits of regular labor,
which is the first lesson of civilization;
by contact with superior race; and by their
conversion to Christianity. They are better
qualified for their new condition than were
the freedmen of the British West India
Islands, because they have continued one
| generation longer in condition of tutelage;
all that is gained being kept and continued
| by hereditary transmission in accordance witA
a well-established physiological law. For
this reason, the failure of the experiment in
| the British West Indies does not necessarily
| foreshadow its failure here. The ensave-
ment of savages is a civilizing influence up
to certain point; and the superior industry
of our liberated negroes over those OF
Jamaica would seem to indicate that British
emancipation was premature. If our negroes
shall persevere in habits of voluntary indus.
try, that fact will have to be accepted as
proving that slavery had done for them al
that it can do for any savage race, and thai
the time had fully come for their release from
its leading strings. But if they relapse int
idle and vagabond habits, they have beer
| emancipated too soon or the race is incapable
| of self-subsistent civilization.

DIED TOO SOON.

From the Missouri Republican,
The institution which has attained unen-
viable notoriety under the name of ''the
American Anti-Slavery Society" held its final
meeting on Saturday week, and resolved that
having like good old Simeon, 'seen the
glory of the Lord" it was now safe and
proper to depart in peace and be gathered to
its fathers. Various male and female apos-
ties, black and white, spoke on the subject
profusely, and all united in the same opinion
save one. Mr.. Stephen Foster, the husband
of ong-minded sister, well known in the
ranks of the faithful, stood alone in the
minority, and declared that the American
Anti.Slavery Society, instead of having
finished its labors, had only fairly entered
upon them, and ought by no means to die,
but rather to grid up its loins anew, and
fight valiantly under the old banners for
many years henceforward. Foster was
promptly opposed by several members, and
the coup de grace being administered in a
speech by Mrs. Foster, he subsided; the
motion was carried, and the society djourned
sine die.
Now, if we could only hope that the endless
stream of fanatical nonsense and humbug
philanthropy, which has deluged the country
for almost half century, had, like the rivers
in the desert, run itself into the ground and
disappeared permanently, there would be
ample cause for hearty congratulation; but ii
is impossible to lay this fattering JUNCTION to
our souls. This regiment of the abolition
army has indeed disbanded, but both officers
and privates announce their intention to con.
tinue the holy war on the guerrilla system;
and, wherever and whenever head is raised
against Africa, to hit it. The last resolution
gives this cheerful assurance
''We welcome our wronked equal to our sides
We promise him henceforth TO make every effort q
secure to him safe exercise OF all his rghus, ant
IA nraapnt ODDOItunitV for social aniOVment.

tity; while the population of our Alpine ter

peaches, pears, grapes, and figs, leaving Sac

cities eastward, and among them to Dubuque,

still doubt watch the developments of the two
next years only, and they will be abundantly
satisfied.
