Speech of Morton McMichael, Esq.
DELIVERED AT NORRISTOWN. THURSDAY EVENING.
OCTOBER 9.
[Specially Reported for The Press ]
Mr, Mold Mailer., on being introduced to the meeting,
was received with loud cheering. After the applause had
subsided, be said:
I have come here to-night, my friends, as you mil
see, laboring under considerable difficulty in speaking,
haying for a long time past been very severely suffering
from influenza of some sort, and I should not have coma
at all if I had felt that at a time like this any man, no
matter what might be his position, could refuse the call
of his fellow- citizens, It it were in his power to answer it,
when they asked him to be present and say a word in
behalf of the etraggling Interests of the country. I have
come here to have a little rambling talk with you upon
such subject' as present themselves to my mind as I go
on, for I have no pro arrangement of thought ; indeed,
Ido not know to what topics I shall advert. The diffi
culty I feel is one which must present itself to every
body : to know where or when to begin in defending the
Union or in advocating its maintenance There is some
thing so monstrous in the idea that the Union should
ever be attacked—there is something so inexplicable in
all that has been done by those who have led in this
attack upon it—that, as I have said, we scarcely know
how to begin to approach the subject which has led us
here to-night.
Mr. liszlehettet (the previous speaker) has meet ably
and eloquently gone over, with you, the causes, so far
as they were alleged to exiat, which are pleaded in exonse
of this rebellion ; and ho has, with equal eloquence and
ability, pointed your attention to some of the cense
quencee that have flowed from it. I do not propose to
retrace the ground which he has occupied ; but there
was One taws he said, which I must repeat now at the
very beginning; and that wan that let Gongreesional
elections this fall result as they may, let what party may
succeed, the proclamation of Abraham Lincoln, decla
ring that, on the let day of next January, the slaves of all
who are then in rein Ilion shall be free, will unquestiona
bly stand, [Great applause.] And it will stone, not
clone because we have the present Congress, not alone
because we have the present Senate, not alone because
we have the relent Executive, but because it is the will
[Applause]
lon may just ue'well attempt to stop the hurricane in
its mad career, or attempt to beat back the waves as
they dealt" upon the shore, as to resist the propels of
that mighty opinion which, for the Met few yearn, has
been developing itself in this country, and which, under
this rebellion, has been stimulated iuto the action now
contemplated in the proclamation of President Lincoln.
The fact that Mr. bazieharet is hero to-night to say
what ho has said, the fact that lem here tonight to
say what I shall say, the fact that many of you are
here to-night to listen to what he has [mid and what I
shall say, and to approve—that fact, my Wanda, is algal
taint of changes—changes that cannot be checked nor
stayed in their onward progress—because a revolution
like this, a moral revolution, a revelation springing out
of the purposes of the beneficent Almighty, never goes
backward. (increased enthusiasm ] Why, I remember
when I cable here, some twelve years ago, to address a
meeting le ibis borough, (a partisan meeting,) there
came into that meeting to interrogate me a gentleman—
a citizen of the borough, then largely in advance in
eldritch on this subject—l mean Mr. Aaron. Ho came
to interrogate me as to my opinions, and the apprehen
sion of my !clouds then was that I might, perhaps, be
con milted to something too positive on the subject of
tante slavery. It, there anybody here now to question net
Is theta ern body here now to interpose objection? Is
there anybody here row to say, "Take care, you will en
danger sour cause ?" If there be such a man, let him,
step remised ; let me look at him; let ate look right in
his face, as I am willing he should look in mine; for I
tell you, my friends, from the bottom of my heart, I
despise that man who permits himself to hesitate in times
like there, because he may se called an Abolitionist,
[Oheere
The day for that sort of thing has gone by ; that kind
of bugbear cannot be need any looger. There was a
peeled when it was enough to alarm almost any man,
particuiroly any men who desired to encased In public

against him, with the faintest show of truth, that he was

have never been an Abolitionist; my friend, Air. Hark
burst, has never been; neither one of no, in theordinary
sense of the term. could be so called even now. We
have, both of us, belonged to the conservative portion of
our party; we were rather charged with leggin in the
rear of opinion on this aubjeot when we were Whigs, and
alto since we joined the People's party. But I was glad
10 hear his declaration here to-night, and I am proud to
echo it in the face of Heaven. [Applause J Slavery is
doomed—doomed past redemption !—and I thank God for
it. And it is doomed, ray friends, by no act of ours; it
is doomed by no with of ours; it is doomed by the wicked
acts of those to elhom it especially belongs.
I have been told, since coming into the town to-night,
that a somewhat conspicuous politician of your borough,
melee keowa but two parties : the party of the "nigger
and the party of the white man." I accept his distinction,
and I believe in it. There are but two parties: the party
or the negro and the party of , the white man • and I be
long to the party of the white '
an, as I have always.
[Great applause I belong to the party that teems to
lake care of the interests of these honest workingmen
whom I see sitting here before me. I belong to tho party
which has always believed, and acted upon the belief, that
it was of infinitely more importance to the Interests of
the,country that we should protect the free labor of the
North then that we should protect thg slavery of the
South. (elm:ries In the more than thirty years that
I have been et gaged in public affairs, I defy any man to
point to a single phrase I have ever uttered—to
point to a single act I have ever performed—that
was not strictly its keeping with the declaration that
I now make; for I ran of those, and always have

there two parties—the party of the negro and the party of

who reads three extracts knows that not alone of late
but for years post, it has been the constant theme of
• those papers to abuse the laboring cheeses of the North,
to bestow upon them epithets of opprobrium, to heap
upon them all manner of calumnies and to charge um
them all poesible crimes, to setter at and deselect them,
and in every way attempt to degrade them Arid yet

has the insolence to come among free white laboring al.ta

mind that the Question is not one of separation or !wog- .

there is no possibility of a permanent recognition ; there

a territory that is unenseeptible of envision, we occupy a
country that cannot be divided. Nature has set her face
against divielon, and we cannot overcome her if we

not for the Union from a patriotic love of the Union must
ho for it from compulsion, in view of the impossibility of
separation. There does not live tho man, however gifted
be may be, who can draw any line of demarkation be•

There can be no permanent tecogietion, no peace except
that which results from these traitors laying down their
arms, and morrendering themselves at discretion to the
power which they themeelvts have outraged, and submit
ting to ench conditions as a merciful Goverment may feel
inclined to impose upon them. That view of the case ( what
ever partisans may Bay to the contrary), every, mane"
conscience mast teach him is the true view. Every um
who thinks or feels upon theeenbjects, must know that
what I say is true, that whatever we may do tempora
rily. there can be, ultimately and finally, but one coun
try here ; and in view of that fact, does not every man
who hears me to-night recognize that other fact, that
this rebellion must be crushed, or we, who are opposing
it, will be crushed. But, putties/ aside, as I said, all the
instincts of patriotism, (supposing that any of us ware
mean and base enough to put aside those glorious iii
etincts,) selfishness prompts us to retest, even if it be
to the death, those who wenn make this rebellion
prosperous; because you and I, and all of us, would fall if
this rebellion should succeed. Those of us who are
obliged to earn our bread by our daily toil, as I am
and all my life have been, and as I know, are many of
these who listen to me now, would be obliged to submit
ourselves to the dictation and domination of harder task
masters than we ever imagined it possible could be lifted
up over is. We should be obliged to accept all the terms
these conquering Southerners might dictate. We would
resist, of course; but of what avail would resistance be,
if they should Ise successinl and have at their back, in
the Borth, a great, powerful organization, ready
to yield to them In all they require, for that would
ba the result. I do not mean to say that the tens
of thousende of voters who on next Tuesday will vote
the Democratic ticket, will do eo with the impression of
that which I now charge, but I do mean to say the in
evitable result of their success which will compel them
to make what I have stated their party policy, will finally
compel us to lie down in abject submission to the traitors
of the Bonne to accept their terms of peace, to make
ourselves their bowers of wood and drawer" of water, to
become, in a word, their slaves. Democrats do, not
avow these designs, of course; perhaps some of them are
not even aware of them; but all of us who know any
thing of the teachings of history, who know anything of
public affairs, know that all these events travel on until
they accomplish their own logical results. AU of us
know that a ball set in motion, if it be on an inclined
pane, cannot be stayed except be by some opposing
force, and It will be utterly impossible to avoid the tones
gnences that must result from their own acts if they are
succeteete in obtaining the power which they now seek
pa this point of the speaker's remarks, an interrogato
ry was addressed to Sir. biotlichael. He continued :1
I am gratified, indeed, to have a topic suggested to me
in the we, of an inquiry, which, perhaps, in my earnest
ness with reference to other matters, I might have over
locked. I am asked, If the Proclamation of the Presi.
dent is carried out, whether the North will not be over
run by negroes 1 It is a very Reeve question—a question
involving grave consequences, and one, therefore, which
requires grave deliberation. I answer, that having given
that subject a very considerable thereof attention, having
myself, at one period, entertained very great gapers.
bunions in that direction, I have arrived at the conclu
sten, deliberately, that so far from such a result following
—timely following, I mean—directly the reverse will
happen. I believe that If this rebellion is subdued, as it
most be subdued, by tho power of the North—by the
substitution of the National Government for the spurious
Confederate Government which now seeks to rival ani to
overthrow it—that, so far from the emancipation of the
slaves in the South tending to the increase of their num
ber in the North, a very large portion of the free blacks
who now live here will be attracted to the South. and
that our black population, instead of being increased,
will be very materially dlmiulelied. I have had the
pleasure of a very large intercourse with some of the
ladies and gentlemen who have taken and are taking
a deep interest in the experiment at Port Nora!;
and having, as I just stated, my own fears ex
cited as to the possible result of an exodus of the
blacks from the South into the North, I have been
at great paths to luquire, wherever the opportunity was
afforded me, as to the probable disposition and conduct
of the black in the event of emancipation ; and I am
tatistied—rerfectle satisfied—that wherever it is possible
for the negro to remain in the place where he was born
and reared, and especially if it be among large numbers
of his own class and kind, there he will desire to remain,
anti there he will:later° to die and be bathed. There ts,

severe cruelties, under the pressure of the lash wielded
by the strong arm of the wicked taskmaster, that the
negro le ever induced to abandon his Southern horns
In the fete South, instances of desertion, even under
such circumstances, are rare ; end we all know that while
contiguous to our own State there are slave States
where slaves swarm, it to only in exceptions' wee and
tinder the preen are of. such. circumstances es I have ad
verted to, that the slaves cross the border and reek a
home among us. The slave by nature and constitution,
is adapted to the South. God Almighty bits so prepared
him that he is especially adapted to tropical climates.
ho revels in the host; he seeks the eon ; Lis
native Africa is to hint dearer than the moat
genial climates of our middle &steel could be ;
and with all the changes he has undergo.e, with all
the modifications of race through which no has vested
since he was brought Into this country, that feeling Is
still paramount; end wherever the, free negro can plant
Limeelf on Southern sell, there you will tied him in as
large numberans the laws permit. In soma or the sla ve
States, where there is uo positive interdiction in the way
.of their living, the nentrwr of free negroes at this hour,
though subject to All• possible degradation, is larger, fu
ercportion, then those in the.. Northern States. And if
emancipation were once proclaimed and the negro once
made free in the lend, the negro in his Southern home
would not only remain there, but all his brethren would
cast their lot along with life. 1 greut, if these southern
men succeed in their purposes, if they can dictate to us
litre in the North terms of stanission, then we shall
have an exodus of blacks among us; because, you need
not be told, my friends, that it' they succeed in main
taining themselves with their institution of elevery un
inipalred, every motive of the negro to come North will
be inevitably strengthened, for every inducement for
him to Ace from the lash of the overseer will be mire
then doubled. Then wo shall have coming In among us
a large influx cf negroes; and, if we aro 'separated, we
cannot torn them beck ; there will not be any fugitive. •
slave laws ler restoring thcm to their masters: and hete
they will remain. If there ut as Max of negroei among us,
it a ill take place only under such circumstances. What
motive could bring the black slave here, if he can en
joy his freedom in the South? What possible mottos
could he have in coming here? tie could not enter into
competition with our labor—he Is not qualified for that;
there is no work here that he could obtain. He only comes
here wile n he ie driven by thereat' of his master's cruelty
to abandon his master's home.
1 repeat, then, as my deliberate conviction—a convic
tion to which I have com eller very considerable exami
nation of the whole queation—that, ultimately, the effects
of the emancipation, upon the terms proposed by the
President's proclamation—(of course, while our armle3
are in progress, there may and will be a greater or lasi
lumber of slaves taken for the temporary pnrpsoa to
Nvinch they may be applied); btu, ultimately, the effects
of tmancipalgers upon any tame, so far from bringing
slaves here to interfere with tho free white labor of the
lam% will have precisely tho opposite tendency, and
yid carry back to the South large numbers of those who
have fled here in former years. [Applause j
btatlatical examinations allow the fact that, even' duting this rebellion; a very considerable num
her of negroes have gone back into those or -
bons of the South where they supposed they would
be protected by the armies of the fruited States; and
there can be no doubt, not the slightest doubt, that when
ever wo have established peace upon our terms, when
ever we have compelled the South to submit to a resto
ration of the Union upon such conditions as the nocessi
th a of the case will compel us to dictate, then the negro
will remain where he Is, and never desire to come away.
Be never will come ; except under the Orme of a neceeelty
that drives him from his home, and that can only exist
while he is there in a state of slavery ; and that man is

I happened to be in Harrisburg on the night when
Governor Curtin isaued his call for fifty thousand trooer,
and, upon the information suornitted to me by the Go-
Torpor and other gentlemen connected with the Admi
nistration, 1 bad no earthly doubt that; unless there was
the Intervention of some power beyond any that any
man In Harrisburg could control, Wore forty-eight
home our State would be, at tecsst in tome degree, dese
crated and devastated. There was every reason, that
night, to believe, upon the intelligence received, that
the enemy, in very large force, was moving rapidly upon
our border, and if General IrloOlellan had riot come up
with his army at the fortunate moment he did, and if
there heel sot been that grand uprising of the people of

his duty as a citizen ' a Pennsylvanian , a patriot, and a
friend of the Union, Is to v3te against alt who support

Was living in Harrisburg, I hare known Lim during all
the interval, and though it has so happened that, our
walks in hie being somewhat apart, and the location of
our residences being distant from each other, we have
not often met, yet I know that Judge Krause is eminently
deserving of your support. "Applause.]
I E now that ho possesses alt the ability required to re
present your district faithfully; and I know—what is far
more necessary in this crisis; what is tar beyond any
more question of ability—that he posieesee that loyally,
without which no man can faithfully discharge his duties
as a member of the National Congress. Of his compori
toy, personally, I have no knowledge.. I am not aware
that I ever saw him. But he has made for himeelf,a
most outrageous record. He has, by his votes in . oofi.
grass, shown that be is not a friend of the country ; that
be is in sympathy with the rebellion ; that he is hostile
to all tho great interests of this district; to all the work
ingmen of thin district, and to all those who live by their
labor, whether they be agrieultarists, mechanics, or ope
ratives; because he has steadily, consistently, and per.
eistently voted with those who desire to replace upon the
necks of Northern men the heti of the South, which so'
often ground us into the duet.
ly friends these are times for serfousreflection. Every
man who votes for Dr. Stiles, in view of this record, is
fairly chargeable with disloyalty, and the charge ought
to be made, because it is one that may be maintained I
do not know what the result may be ; I know that your
district is senerally largely Democratic, but I do hops and
believe that in a gteat crisis like this, when the country is
bleeding at every pore, when honest mon owe it to
themselves and to that country that they atrial
rally to its support—l trust that after next Tues
day we shall find that idontgornery has beau true to
her interests,
faithful in the discharge of her duties; and,
it she is ao, then will Dr. Stiles be allowed to remain at
home instead of going to Washington for another term,
there, in conjunction with Vallandigham, to plot mis-
chief against the connrry to which he owes all that he Is
and all that he has.
And what le true of your members of Congress is not
less true of your members of the Legislature; because,
remember, if the Democratic party succeeds in electing
to the Legislature a sufficient majority of the members
of that organization to control an election on jolut bal
lot, then Francis W. Hughes to all probability, will be
elected Senator to the United States - Senate from this
State; and we shall be sobjected to the perpetual dis
grace of having a man standing up on the floor of that
body declaring that we are in favor of dividing this great
Union, of separating ourselves from that great constella
tion of States of which we have loog been one of the
blighted lights. and that we desire to bitch on to this
Southern Vont, demos.
There are other topics which, perhaps, have escaped
my attention. What I have said here sprung from the
innermost convictions of my heart. 1 have uttered no
word tonight that I do not as firmly believe as I believe
in my own existence. I have come here to• night, as I
said, not desiring to promote any partisan purposes at all.
I came, as I was asked, to say a few words to my old
Dienes in Montgomery county. I have come to toll u
bow I feel in this contest, and hoW I shall act I have
come to beg of you that, for a time at least, forgetting
all party distinctions, you will rise above the low level of
mere partisanship; rise up to the full dignity of patriot
ism, and to the full stature of statesmanship, and in this
hour of your country's direst need, when traitors are
triingto plant daggers in her heart; when she calls
upon ybu to come to her rescue, I do hope you will be
true to yourselves end to your destiny, and that you will
unite with me In praying and working for our blessed
Union.

THE RIGHT KIND OF RESOLUTIONS.—
The following, among other resolutions, were adopted at
a meeting of the citizens of the Fifth precinct of Twenty
fourth ward, on Thursday evening:
. Resolved, That the candidates prosented by the Na
tional Union Conventions for the various positions now
to be tilled are eminently worthy of the support of all
true and loyal mon, end that the National Union organi
sation is composed of men who are Willing, for a time, to
forgot all partisan , feeling, and to unite together for a
common object, burying ail minor issues and past din
rencte, and rally to the support of the Administration
and the Government in this crisis of our country's
history.
Resolved, That we, the citizens of this precinct, his im
mediate neighbors and friends, do most cordially and
heartily endorse the renomination of Ron. Wm. D. Kelley
as our Representative to the United States Congress.
That as neighbors and friends we cannot repreal a feel
ing of pride that he has not only reflected honor neon
his constituency and upon his native State, for the ability
and faithildnesa with which the claims and interests of
that constituency were represented; but that he has also
taken a front rank among the leading statesmen of the
times, and achieved a reputation as widely diffused as
tlint njoyed by some of the great minds who

TEX 88TH REGIMINT.-111 conversa
tion with an officer of the 88th Regiment, P. V., a few
days ago, we learned some facts in relation to it that may
Possibly interest our readers. The men composing it, as
is well•known, were mainly recruited in this city. They
left here needy one thousand strong, about a year since,
tinder the command of our townsman, Col. George e.
McLean. Shortly after their arrival at vre..s..ewton they
were laced p in General McDowell's division, antr
ir ifrenerreareatered at Alexandria, and subsequent
places in that vicinity. -- lifitellip. ' .Ranassas, and other
campaign before Washington they_ aa w Pra Drier
severe service, and participated in near: - _
CO'd
marches and- battles of that period At the second
battle cf Bull Run they were prominently en
gaged and distinguished themselves by their gallantry
end good conduct. In this engagement Lieut. Colonel
McLean, brother of the Colonel, fell mortally wounded
while he ading a charge, and was captured by the rebels.
A private in the 76th Ohio Regiment, taken prisoner a
little while before, saw him fall, and wentimmediatelY to
his assistance. The rebels at once ordered him away,
and all his entreaties for Remission to dress the wounds
cf the dying man were brutally refused. Ills last words
to the Ohio soldier, as he was forced to leave him, wore
a menage of love t o his wife and children, and "I die the
death of a soldier, in defence of ray country and her
flag!" heroic words, that will live long in the remem
bi ate° of his friends, and be treasured by hie rela
tives to the latest generation. Upon their return to
Wailliff ton at the clone of this unfortunate and disastroan
campaign they were at once incorporated into the grand
army, which moved under the command of McClellan,
for the expulsion of the rebels from fdaryland. In all
the severe battles which followed they took an acti vo and
willing part, and were everywhere noted for their in
domitable bravery and reckless determination. As a con
sequetce their lose in khled and wounded was yore
heavy, and they can muster for dnty only alnint 850
men. Notwithstanding their ranks have been thus fear
fully Rdrined, arid notwithstanding the work yet before
them—the magnitude of which they fully appreciate—
they are as roan y as ever to do battle for the Union,
and, if need be, to offer themselves a sacrifice for the
Cause in which they are engaged. The regiment Je at
present wider the command of the major, Col. McLean
being tmeorarily absent on account of ill health. All
honor.to them and. to all our gallant Pennsylvania sol
dier. They have berries themselves nobly on many a
hard-fought field, and a generous people will not soon
fortet leek devotion and glorious achievements.
SCARCITY OF OYSTEREL—At the Pre
tett time oysters are much higher than for many years,
and the supply to far abort the demand. Those en
gaged in the trade base endeavored to remedy the defi
ciency as far as possible, but thus far there appears x.o
probability that the difficulty will bo overoome. In the
first place the principal oyster•tields of Virginia are eta'
closed, and thole of Idaryland wore se completely
dredged last year that they cannot afford a half supply.
Another difficulty would be, if plenty of oysters were in
the field, there are not vowels to bring them into the
market. It is estimated that fully five hundred vessels
engaged in this trade have been destroyed, or seized and
confiscated, dace the war began, besides which nearly
ail the smell boats usually employed in catching oysters
have disappeared from the shores, and those for
merly employed in taking the oysters from the water
have sought other employment. ,Thus, a most important
branch of business has beeu considerably curtailed since
the breaking out of tho war.
INTERESTING FLAG II AIgING AND
DEDIOATION.—The new hospital for the relief of sick
and wounded solders will bo dedicated to itsinteuded pur

. THE ARRIVAL OF GEN. MCCLELLAN.
—The news of the arrival of Gen. litcOliellan in the city
on Thursday night created no little sensation throughout
the town vetrerday. The. General came here on urgent
private business, and was accompanied by his father-in

THE PRESS.---PHILADELPHIA, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 11, 1862.
EMM DIDATION AND bOLONIZ
The present year is the eilitztv-savanth of the lade• .
peneleuce of the United :Warw. 1383 will be the first year
of the independence of the Southern slaves. The
preclamation of the President could not have Loren made
at a Mere acceptable, time, under more at minable clr•
eametances. The year of jnbl'ee 11 come, aid each
ransomed servitor will now inherit the birthright of 'the
flee. In this city, the feelitg in regard to eintanelp4tion
is evident and the actions of levered societies prove the
Interest felt. Some interesting statistics Wll probably
soon be forthcoming, and time wal develop the agency
now at work. The Colonization Society is active In its
duties and in its sympathy with the Preeiden t's endeavors.
It is noticeable that oar colored popolation do not give
evidence of any great anxiety to quit the temperate (or
.more torrid regions; to exchange America for Liberia.
Their meetings and their reeolutioni evince a different
sort of Interest from that entertained by the whites.
Liberia. however, is not a residence to be devised.
beris le situated on the grain coast of Guinea, and though
the measured limits may amount to but some sixty thou
sand . sonars miles, yet her facilities for indefinite
extension' are very great, the natives everywhere
being only too glad to have their territories em
braced within her dominion. The original set
tlers landed in •Liberia on the 25th April, 1822,
Cape Meentrado. The capital, Monrovia, was here
established On the 24th Auguet, 1841. they were de
clared independent, and instituted the Republic of Li
beria. The deportation of those previously free, and of
thousands of emancipated slaves, 'whose benevolent
masters and mistresses were glad to grant the freedom
which is the natural heritage of all, swelled the popu
lation of this new democracy. In 1.84.1, upon the death
of Buchanan, the last of the white Governors, the ele
vation of the colored class to office was resolved upon,
a circumstance at once congenial to their tastes, and ex
alting to them as a race. .The intrinsic virtues of Li
beria; her advantages of fertility of soil, of variety of
prcduction and of climate, are the natural causes whioh
ebould make her a rich and •powerlul nation. Nearly
every variety of tropical produse seems to be indigenous
to the country. A valuable export can be found in
cotton. atd the soli ore which it thrives may vie with that
of other regions in wielding the sapreMacy so long
usurped by the States of the South, whence its °nit!•
va'ors are to be gathered. The rainy and dry seasons,
the middle of May and the middle of November, divide
the year into two portions, and. the warm though
equable climate would seem to offer, at least, as accept.
able a temperature for the slave, and for the colored race
generally, as the latitudes of America. The fifth Pre.
silent of the United States, Mr. Monroe, also Jefferson,
Webster, Madison, and (lay, strenuously advocated the
direct settlement of our colored population in the land of
their ancestors. The. feeling throughout Philadelphia,
though its direct expression hap not been as strongly
argued as the most devoted upholders of the emsucipa
tion act and colonization scheme could 'desire, is yet
very strong, and the future meetings of the Cotonization
Society will doubtless' be of interest A vessel is ex
pected to sail for Liberia about the first of November.
Why should not Philadelphia take the load in this af
fair, as she ever has in other actions,in the history of
her country, connected with the truest national glory 7
To our colored race particularly, a still deeper conside
ration, a more thorough appreciation of the subject,
would seem necessary. Freedom from certain preju
dices, which mill attach to them as a class in certain
quarters; a citizenship and nationality, which 'cannot
attach themselves to him here; surely these are objects to
be desired. The man of dusky blood, be he bond or free,
bits hopes, ambitions; aspirations, in common with his
fair faced brethren, and thoush forced deportation 14 not
to hi advocated, yet the advantages of volu ttary action
in this respect are fairly and'impartially to be cot forth.
Liberia Las rnaintaited her independence since 1847, and
ten loading Powers have welcomed her into the family of
nations, and, with few exceptions, formed commercial
treaties with bar. Her strength and resources have son
cessfully stood severe taste, and intellect and religion are
advancing hand in hand. The school hoists; and the
churches, the several seminaries and the college, yield
ample proof of this. Worthy colored people emigrating
are provided with a comfortable passage 'and abundant
food on the voyage;and with medical attendance. atd a
habitation for six months after arrival. To every adult
five acres of land are given, and an additional Quantity
according to the 'number of the family.
To presume, however, that our Philadelphia colored
population are indifferent to tho subject is a mistake.
They think and bilk of it in the family, and In c)nven
glom Many motives for this interest animate their
bosoms---atabilion for themzeivee, and the Mill nobler
emotion of ambition for their children.

The Government of Liberia being like our own, and
offering adventagee to be found nowhere else in the world,
would seem an irreeistible inducement to the colored
race. In a word, this Republic has proved a success,
whilst other regions ' to which emigration has been male
for a similar object, have proved failures. Other lands,
bewever, may be made to co operate anomattfolly with
this, and the numerous homes at present offered to the
African race are earnests of the awadening.sense of true
freedom pervading the union-op.
TOWN. ---After severe exposures i n
the Penton!la, Antietam, and the Bappatiannock, Col.
M M. Gregg, Major Jul',i and Dr. Egan, of the Bth
Pennsylvania Cavalry, are at length in the city. No
cavalry regiment in the Army or the Potomao has seen
more corvine than this. one, and the exertions it has put
fortbiln defence of the Union and the Constitution can
never be too highly appreciated. Alt the regiments in
Maryland.have the fever, and the officers named above
are also cillicted with it. It is our sincere wish that
they may speedily be (stabled once more to resume their
patriotic labors.
