From the Tribune.
If the largo class of Americans, Imported and
native, who have been educated to express
their hatred of equal rtRlits and their prejudice
against race by mouthin? with hot rase, or
airy contempt, the word "Nignorl" could be
compelled to visit in detachments the PhJTiidel
phla Institute tor Colored Youth, on Shippen
street, they would speedily get cured of the false
ldras upon which slavery in the United Mates
souebt a logical and lawful foundation, and
which now Inspire the opponents of impartial
suffrage to resist the extension of the ballot to
the black man. We visited this school last
week, and for two days witnessed its annuul
commencement exercises. We saw there abun
dai.ee evidence:
I. That under the management and instruo-
tion ol colored teachers, male and female, there
is in Philadelphia a school for the education of
girls and bojs in ine .Latin and Greek Classic,
the Mathematics History, (lenernnliv. aud
Composition, wcich is fully equal to tne best of
tne endowed acuaemics or Massacbuseus ana
New Hampshire. This is saying a great deal,
but wo will stand bv it.
II, We saw that under the development of
this culture, iavored oy ine strong social posi
tion wnicn ine coiorea population in rmiadel
phia hae attained it) that freest of our gnat
cities, there were 181 boys and girls of African
descent as intelligent, as sell-respectful, as well
Mannered, as well dressed. Hnd as rjromlsiner an
i he same number of school children in any of
me Dest scnoois oi mew rngiano. xo De more
specific we' saw a large school of colored
pupils, wbo, in no respect, save color and lea
ti.rcs, differed at ail irom the best educated and
ot carefully trained white boys end girls of
jo fame age in tne Dest academies of the
lorthern Slates. In all respects they were fully
their equals.
III. ft'e saw colored children of both sexes,
between the ages of twelve and nineteen,'
riuidly examined in Xenophon's "Anabasis" and
the Greek Testament, m Virgil's "jEneid,"
Cicero's orations and Horace's songs, in plane
and Hphericol trigonometry, Lcgeudre's geome
try, algebra, mental arithmetic, English analysis,
history and geography, and saw that they under
stood and knew what they recited; that they
were radically and thoroughly instructed; that
their answers to questions were not exercises of
memorv ; that they had not been drilled parrot
like lor a public show; and that they had suc
cessfully received Irom colored instructors the
educations which our best schools give white
children preparatory to entering college.
IV. Wo heard compositions read and declama
tions delivered upon such themes as fi'he
Essential Feature of a Republic," "Music as an
Element of Worship," "The Education ot
Women," "The Age of Pericles," "The Ameri
can Conpres,'' "I he Province of Poetry," "In
dividual Effort," "The New Rome," "The T o
Ciesars." These performances original, marked
with thought, ol a bleb, grade oi excellence in
the u-e of language and structure of sentences,
and lull of generous teeling and morality had
they been listened to by the most prejudiced
upholders of caate, would surely have shamed
them out of all further talk about theiuferio ity
ot the African race, and brought them to a
dandd confession that there i3 nothing In the
organization of the colored American which
should withhold from bim complete political
enfranchisement nothing in his character or
capacities which can longer upnold the meau
aud cowardly lie that the Government of the
United States was intended to be a "white
man's government."
Richard Humphreys, a member of the Society
of Fiiends in Philadelphia, preparing for his
death in the year 18J2, desised $10,000 intrust
"to instruct descendants of the African race in
school learning, in tho various branches of the
mechanic arts and trade, aud in affriculturo, in
order to prepure and qualify them to act as
teachers in those branches ot useful business."
That little sum of money was the seed from
which has grown up the Shippen Street Colored
High (School. It would well lepay a visit bv any
generous and public-spinted man in this city.
The example of beneficence and patriotism set
by the Quaker Humphreys, if followed in New
York by some citizen intrusted with great
wraith, would produce results of the highest
tocml and political value.
The Next United States Senator from
New York.
From the Herald.
Tbe question who is to be the next United
States Seuator from New York is dividing public
attention with the meteoric shower and the dis
covery of the roattodon. The people will watch
the action of the State Legislature in this
matter with much interest. They will expect their
representatives in their choice of a Senator to
correctly reflect the popular verdict rendered in
the late election. Senator Harris, whoe term
is about to expire, is a candidate for re-election;
but bis success is out of the question. He ha
avowed himself a follower of the Jacobin fac
tion, in lavor of ignoring tho Constitutional
amendment as a basis for admitting the unre
presented States to Congress, and uu advocate
ot the impeachmeut of the President. There
can be but one interpretation of the meaning ot
the late election the acceptance by the people
of the Constitutional amendment as a flual set
tlement ol the question ot Southern restoration
The Legislature cannot disregard the will of the
people by elect'ng a United States Senator
who is an avowed opponent of tntt policy, and
who would reopen the question and bring new
trouble and limitation upon the countrv.
The Herald has made Horace Greeley proml- !
neutas a candidate tor the Seuatorship; but it
has been upon the presumption that he is and
will continue to bo an honest and unconditional
supporter oi the Constitutional amendment as a
final basis for the readmission ot all loyal repre
sentatives to Congress. Some fear is expressed
that he may run olf niter some impracticable
notions about "manhood suffrage," or "universal
suffrage and universal amnesty," or some other
figment of a luncitul brain. He must come out
plainly, and plice hiinselt squarely upon the
Constitutional amendment, or we shall have to
let him go. He may allow the long-haired
champions of neero's rights and women s rights
and tree love and bran bread to till the columns
of his paper wiih their notions andlieas, lor
that is of very little consequence; Out Greeley,
the Senator, must show his band and put hlm
aelf on record as a fair, square Coustitutionsl
amendment man, or the Htruld must give him
up as a bad lob.
There are other obstructions in Greeley's
path, but they are not serious, and can be re
moved without much difficulty. One contem
porary Btates that Greeley cannot be taken up
because he is from the came section of the
State with Senator Morgan. If this is really an
objection, there is an easy mode oi getting rid
oi it. Senator Morn an is a very rich ruan.'aud
has plenty of bu-iness to attend to at home
without going to Washington, where he is ot no
earthly use to any person. We have no doubt
he will cheerfully resign his office in ordor to
disembarrass Greeley's prospects. As a Sena-
nr he is a "dead letter." lie never speaks in
cnate, una never mates up nts mind on a
' ouestion until the nght is over. His
, , 'he Constitutional amendment was

ment. If be will make up his mind to 1r1lo w
or.r counsel, there is no rencon why f-eelcy
should not be our next United btates 8 nator.
We have dropped the superfluous prefix ol "Mr."
and npoken ot Greolev an "Greeley," because ni
perron thinks of bilking about "Mr." Monies
quien. or "Mr." Socrates, or "Mr." Pluto, and it Is
equally out of place to talk about "Mr." Greeley,
vtho, rn some respect, may be said, to resemble
Socrates, lor he has had his Ufa wrltlen, like
Socrates, and I'aiton Is his Plato. We oiler our
apologies to Plato lor the comparison.
guflerlnfc at the South The Keceealtjr
for Adopting Mtaiurti of lttllif.
From the Timti
There ceems no room to doubt that actual
destitution is imminent throughout a large part
oi the South. Tho Carolina, Georgia, Alabama,
Mississippi, and Louisiana are represented as
the scenes of wide-spread suffering, arising
from the failure of crop upon which the poople
of the interior counties relied for their year's
subsistence. Some of the crops have altogether
failed; others are so short as to be inadequate
to the wants of tho winter months; and as no
lunre reserve exists in any part of the South, the
prospect is to Immense numbers appalling. Nor
is there any resident wealthy class to minister
to the necessities of their destitute rwini.H
The yield of cotton falls so far below expe-ta-tion
that the planters are unnhlp m .ii ihni
own indebtedness. Even now we hear ot anplica-
"U"',U,IIC came uuu military authorities for
assi.-taoce to avert impendinir lamine; and i he
rigors ot the approaching season portend
misery and disease unless the official action bo
both prompt and effective. '
uniortuuatelT tho Southern State Govern.
ments have not very extensive resources at
their command. Their treasuries are empty,
their taxes uncollected and uncollentblo nJ
their facilities lor raising money by loan lar
below par. The Freedmeu's Bureau may have
more available means, but there are reasons for
restricting rather than extending its eleemo
svniirv operations, it other raomm nt mUn-
be made available.
Such being the condition of thousand i
tens of thousands at the South, and miHi tho
inadequacy of Southern, powers of relief, a
outy devolves upon the North that shn.iirt
neither be underestimated nor deterred. It is
not a case for Concrees or the PreslnV nt. line
for the Governors or Lerislatures of States
within the Union. It is a man in n?hir.i. tk.
benevolence ot the North 6hould fcnontnnnnnalir
come forward, to assure the starving multitudes
pf its readiness to co-operate wiih trustworthy
local organizations that mat be formed tnr tiii-
relief. The North is able of its bounty to take
care that suffering, however extended, shall not
culminate in famine; and its liberality when
appealed to from other quarters, should be a
guarantee of what it will undertake to do when
the Southern authorities shall set forth tho data
of an appeal, and the ninnner in which thev
propose to apply the assistance that may be
rendered them.
The famine now rH?incr in Tn.lm Ima rxui a
blot upon the escutcheon of England's civiliza
tion. It has appeared almost incredible that a
nation whose missionaries penetrate the remotest
receses ot heathenism to nreiich tho nn.nni nt
charity, should permit millions of irs own sub-
jects to perish Irom sheer hunger, without one
vigorous enort 10 succor tnern. Let us take care
that a 6imilar horror be not repeated on n
smaller scale in Alabama and other districts of
the South. The Dlea of iirnornnce will not h
available. The tact that destitution extensively
prevails ha? been promulgated through tnn
many channels to admit of controversv; and tne
inability of the South to cope with the suffering
wnich weekly spreads within its borders, is
equally susceptible of prnot.- We ouuht not to
wtiit until lam ine actually begins its work. I
Why Not Discharge .Jefferson OnvU J
From the World.
The shabby and, scaudalou3 treatment of this
prisoner of state proceeds from the same mo
tives as the unconstitutional exclusion of the
Southern States from Cotierress. The gross ille
gality of detaining him in custody nineteen
months without putting him on trial or con
fronting him with tho witnesses expected to
testify to his guilt, is au exhibition of the same
rancorous aud unmanly spirit which, dictates
the whole mode of dealing with the South that
has prevailed since tho meeting of Congress last
December.
Chief Justice Chaee and his sycophant, Judge
Underwood, shnuk irom trying Mr. Da vis leaf
his acquittal should expose ihem to the obloquy
ot the rauiculs who thirst for his blood, and lest
Chic! Justice Chase's chances ot the raoicil
nomination should be diminished. The Presi
dent has hesitated to release him o;i parole or
bail, because the radicals would raise a great
outcry, and add to the otherwise lornuaable
obstacles to tho success ot his restoration policy.
Congress, although the subject has been before
heir most important committee, would not
Hit a bneer to promote lustice, because they
were willing to embarrass the President, anil
Vt ished to spite the South.
There is good reason to suppose that there has
been a studied collusion between the radical. in
Congress and the Chiei Justice to postpone and
prevent a trial, and put the odium on the Presi
dent. Chiet Justice Chase (ought olf the trial
as long as he could, by saving that he would not
compromise tne dignity of the judiciary bv
holding a court under the shadow of martial
law. When that excuse became obsolete he in
vented others. He authorized Judge Un
derwood in May or June (wo lorget the month)
to promise Mr. Davis' counsel that the trial
should come on in October; but it afterwards
appeared that this was like adjourning the case
to the Greek Kalends, or to the thirtieth day of
February. WLen October arrived, and Mr.
Davis' counsel appeared, according to appoint
ment, in Richmond, behold there was no court)
the judges who had appointed it having dis
covered all rf a sudden that they had no au
thority to hold one at that time! Most learned
judges! Most sapient expounders ot the law!
ii mey nad no antnority to noid a court at
Richmond in October, why did they appoint
one, and make that a reason for postponing the
trial f
Meanwhile, the Chief Justice ha s discovered
another reason lor skulking Irom his duty. It
seems that Coneress. at its last session renr.
ganized the circuits, but, by some unaccount
able blunder or oversight, failed to assign
judges. Therefore, Judge Chase says he cannot
try Kir. Davis until Congress has revised its
clumsy Jaw and reciiUed its blunders. This
brings us to the grounds of our surmise of col
lusion between Congress and Mr. Chase. It is
incredible that the Judiciary Committee should
have drawn a bill reorganizing the circuits
without submitting it to the Chief Justice tor
his criticism and suggestions. For aught we
know, he may have prepared the draft ot the
law himself. Considering the constant repug
nance he has shown to try Mr. DavK it would
be quite in keeping with his wishes that the law
should be in such a form n? to turnlsh him with
a new excuse when all the others he could invent
had failed. lie this as it may, he has as per
sistently fouebt off the trial as if he were the
criminal and Mr. Davis tho judae.
The action ol Chief Justice Chase and Judge
Underwood, discreditable as it is, is outdone by
that oi Secretary Stanton and Ju lee Advocate
Holt If the one Is scandalous, the other is
atrocious. It was by the representations of
Messrs. Stanton and Holt that President John
son f ho had then suddenly como intooftice,
and had no time to look closely into the matter)
was deceived into offering a reward tor Mr.
Davis as one of the assassins of President Lin
coln. There was, to be sure, evidence to this
eflect; but it consisted of a deliberate tissue of
perjuries fabricated with the connivance of
Mr. Holt. Conover, aliat Dunham, their
ostensible author, has been, within the last
two or thice days, Indicted in the District of
Columbia for his forged stories and false
swearing. Why was such evideaoe received
without scrutiny f It was probably got up to
be submitted to a military commission, lite
that which tiled Mrs. Surr.ttt, wbero it would
Vrobrfblj have passed muster bv the coinplai
cance ol the coinmicMoa to it oflicisl superiors
Fortunately lor justice, the President thouaht
one snrh commission suilioient. But why was
this perjured testimony kept closely concealed ?
VVhy was it never submitted to the inspection
ui uimi ..a.iuK mi luii-rcsi io detect and
explode it f For no other reason in the world
thsn because Stanton and Holt krww that it was
lalse, and would not stand scrutiny Their
combined falsehood, meanness, and injustice is
worthy ot their character, and of the deceitful
diabolical sunt ot the party with which they
are in fviiiTiQilm llu '"'J
But shall this scandalous Injustice continue?
ov .vii n.i mere was any nope ot a trial, the
1 resident may have been reluctant to interfere
esjeciaily as his enemiee would have cnueht at
the pretext to heap tip new calumnies against
Lis adn initiation. But now that the elections
are over, these prudential reasons have lost
their force, and the indictment of Conover calls
public attention anew to tU disgracclnl arts
which have been used to blacken Mr. I)avii.
ihe Constitution declares that everv accused
person shall have "a speedy and public trlsl "
Nineteen months have tlapsed, aud this belied
and maligned prisoner has no trial, nor seems
likely to have one.
Under llipse rlrciimslon n u ...
should interpose in the interest of abus.-d
justice and of a calumniated reputation Mr
Davis ought to be set at large cither on his
parole to present binuelf tor trial when the
court is ready to try him, or it there is objection
to Hnything so lib ral as a parole, let bim be
released on sufficient bail. We suppose nobody
doubts that Mr. Duvis would keep nis parole
but it bail is preferred, any amount can be im
mediately obtained. In some wav, let the
Government and the country be relieved from
the scandal cf keeping this man, who ha been
Hccusedasan assa&in on perjured testimony
longer in confinement vainly demanding a trial!
