Educational From the minutes of the proceedings of a meeting, of the Patrons of Mr. nail's Select School, held in the School room, August 27, 1856, we extract the following Preamble and Resolutions: Whereas, Our Teacher has, during the last six years, constantly subjected himself to considerable pecuniary loss, by limiting his school, for the benefit qf our chittlan, to a less number of pupils than he always could have had; and whereas, he now proposes, for the same reason., to make additional sacrifices if properly seconded by us; and whereas, we be lieve that it will be true economy—a saving of time to our children and money to our selves, to accept his proposition. Therefore, Resolved, That hereafter, this School shall be limited to forty paying scholars, exclusive V the Teacher's Class, and that the terms of tuition shall be as follows, viz: Orthography and Reading classes, $12,00 a scholar ;Fresh man and Sophomore classes, $15,00 a schol ar; and Junior and Senior classes, $lB,OO a scholar, the one-third clue at the beginning of each session and payable at the end of it. Terms for the Teacher's Class to remain as heretofore, $5,00 a month; $12,00 a session; or $30,00 a year, payable in advance, Resolved, That the number of scholars above named, shall be so fixed and determi nate that no addition can be made thereto, during the school year, without the unani mous consent of the present subscribers; and that such consent must be presented to the Teacher in writing, before he shall be at lib erty to receive any additional patronage. Resolved, That the Rules and Regulations of this school, as revised and published, Au= gust 24, 1854, together with the alterations declared in the foregoing resolutions, are hereby adopted for the government of the school the ensuing year. Resolved, That WO will sustain our Teach er in the administration of these Rules, and in the faithful discharge of his responsible ditties; and that we will encourage all his ef forts to promote the interests of his pupils, and to secure the co-operation of his patrons, Resolved, That if any subscribers not pres ent at this meeting, shall disapprove of these arrangements, their names may be withdrawn from the subscription list, and others substi tuted, who are willing to avail themselves of the privilege. Resolved, That these proceedings be sign ed by . the parties interested, anpreserved as part of the records of the school. [Signed Accordingly,] Huntingdon, Aug. 27, 1856. A Pickpocket Detector has been invented down East. It consists externally of a case, resembling that of a - watch in size and shape. It has a fob-chain or string, and is worn in the pocket like a watch. Within the case is a bell and spring -hammer, the latter connect ed with the fob-chain. The supposition is that the thief will suppose that the watch chain is attached to a bona fide watch, and will accordingly pull the chain in order to obtain the prize. But instead of getting the watch, 'the watch gets him. The pull sounds the alarm-bell, the owner of the watch grabs the rogue, and the policeman conducts him to limbo. A MERITED SENTENCE.—In the Maine Su preme Court, on sth inst., Michael Dunrow, convicted of placing obstructions on a rail road, was sentenced to thirty days solitary confinement, and twenty years in the State prison. This is a just sentence, and it is to be hoped the courts throughout the country will visit -with equally severe punishment every one convicted of cooly - sporting with human life. by scores, by placing obstructions on railroads. '• Another Highly Important Letter. We ask the undivided attention of those into whose hands this number of our paper may happen to fall, to the able, and as it ap pears to us, unanswerable positions assumed in the communication which we publish be low. Will the reader lay aside for one mo ment his prejudices and prepossessions, and calmly review the array of facts presented? Their correctness will hardly be called in question by any one who is at all familiar with the history of our country. All we de sire is that the subjoined letter should be read with candor and attention: PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 20th, 1856. To the Editor of the Pennsylvanian: Sin—As regards the second position assum ed ,by us in our conversation, "That every practical act of philanthropy in relation to .Negro-Slavery, ji•ont and alter the adoption of the Constitution, has emanated .from and been e f fectuated by the Slaveholding States and their citizens," you will remember I said the first great practical act on the subject pro ceeded from Virginia, in the shape of the Or dinance of 1787, when she surrendered to the General Government the Territory now composing the States of Ohio, Indiana, Illi nois, Michigan and Wisconsin, with the pro viso that Negro-Slavery should be forever ex cluded from it, although by . the Local Law, the whole was Negro-Slave 'Territory, This, at least, is a full and fair set off to the aboli tion of Negro-Slavery in the Northern States prior to that time. For Negro: Slavery actu ally existed in Ohio, Indiana and Illinois, un der their Territorial Govermnents, to a limi ted extent, and it was only to a limited ex tent that the same institution existed in the Northern States when they abolished it. In both there were but few Negroes in compari son with the great mass of the population, and the Slave-owners were rather an excep tion to the general rule of the society than otherwise. In neither had the system be come interwoven with the general system of the community, though acknowledged by the Local Law of both. Besides, the Slave-own ers found them valueless at home, and sold them off for the most part, before the Acts of Emancipation went into effect. But be this as it may, by this one act of Virginia, a lar ger realm of Negro-Slave Territory was made non-Slaveholding Territory, than is embraced in the whole of New England, New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania combined.— What have the defamers of the South and the Democracy to say to these facts? The second great practical act of philan; thropy on the subject, originating with the South, arose immediately after the adoption by the Federal Congress of the Ordinance of 1787, and is to be found in the clause of the Constitution abolishing the Slave Trade.— During the Session of the Convention to frame the Constitution, the Representatives of the Southern States, with the exception of South Carolina, brought forward a proposition for the immediate suppression of the Slave Trade. This proposition was at once, warmly oppo sed by the Representatives of most of the Northern States, on the ground that the North cm States were too deeply interested in that trade to consent to its immediate suppression. New England and Old England had not only supplied the whole Continent of America, for a hundred years, with negro slavery, and to such extent, that it is undeniably . true, that every negro-slave at this day living in the Southern States, is held as such under Bills of Sale originally from one or the other of them ; but New England was at this very time, largely engaged in the infamous traffic and had millions of dollars invested in it.— Neither New flamshire, nor Massachusetts, nor Rhode island, nor Connecticut then saw any philanthropy in the proposition of the South to abolish this inhuman traffic. They were too deeply concerned in its profits, and had too much capital, and too many ships, and tco many citizens involved in it, to sur render it on any principle of National poli cy, humanity or religion. Their Represen tatives in the Convention, I will do them the justice to say, ably and zealously , represented the interests, feelings and wishes of their constituents, in opposition to the measure of the Southern Representatives for the imme diate suppression of the Slave Trade. The contest on the subject between the North and the South, became at length so heated, that for fear of breaking up the Con vention without the accomplishment of union, the South yielded to a compromise in favor of the North. They agreed that the North might enjoy the profits of the trade for twen, ty years longer, but then it should cease.— Hence the clause of the Constitution upon which the act of Congress on the subject is framed, reads "1808," instead. of 1788, as the South would have had it. What have the defamers of the South and of Democra cy to say to these facts? The third great practical act of philanthro py proposed on the subject by the Southern States, or their citizens, may be found in the "Colonization Society" and the purchase of "Liberia," on the coast of Africa, as a home for emancipated negro slaves. The first na tional president of this Society . was Chief Justice John Marshall, of Virginia, and its second national president was - Henry Clay, of Kentticky. The first state president of this Society in Virginia, was ex-President James Madison, and its second state presi dent in Virginia, was ex-President John Ty ler. Space will not permit me to indulge in details, but it will be scarcely denied that this Association in its primary inception, in its successful beneficence, in its happy provi deuces, and the actual results it has already Accomplished in behalf of the negro race, both in America and in Africa, deservedly ranks with all right-thinking and right in tentional men, among the noblest institutions of humanity of which the age can boast. It has already Led to the emancipation of thou sands who would otherwise have been forev er slaves, and supplied them with all the ap pliances and comforts of an independent home and- free Republican government, in that quarter of the world from which they origi nally came, and to which God and nature as signed them—where "none may make them afraid," and from whence they may spread the arts of peace and civilization among their brethren over the continent of Africa. What have the defamers of the South, and of the Democracy to say to these facts? They abuse the Colonization Society, because they perfer the emancipated negro here to compete with white labor in industrial pursuits, and with white electors at our election polls. For one, I had rather have them further off, if eman cipated. The fourth great practical philanthropy manifested by the South and her citizens, in connexion with negro slavery, may be found in the strongest and purest expression of eman cipation sentiment probably ever made by man, to which I shall advert, and, for which I am indebted to the Rev. Dr. Stiles, of the Pres byterian Church North, much of whose lan guage even I shall use. how shall we try the purity and power of a sentiment in the human heart? Surely not by words—not by any process of stubborn and imperious agita tion—not by any transient aid and comfort furnished to flying slaves, All these, and many similar developements, may cost but little. The power of a principle exhibits it self by the labors it can put forth, the oppo sitions it can resist, the self-denials it can bear, and the sacrifices it can make. Where shall we find the most commanding expres sion of that calm, enlightened, benign, high souled sentiment of emancipation in connec tion with the negro slave, which is uttered by the 'sacr?fice? Will you point to England and her £20,000,000 for the liberation "of the blacks in the West Indies? These things will work an abatement of our appreciation of this act of England. First, this sum was furnished by the richest treasury in the world. Second, only the annual interest of this sum has been paid ; the principal never will be until her national debt is paid, which can never be. Third, this sum was paid by her, not to benevolent principle, but to self-inter est. She thought that free labor in the West Indies would be far superior to slave labor there, and therefore, by . the Act of Enia.nei pation, she would get her sugars at a penny a pound less than she was then paying, which would return to her 100,000,000 of pounds in the place of the 20,000,000 pounds thus expended. Again she desired to open up the abolition question, to produce strife and dis sension in this Union, that constituted her great rival in commerce and manufactures,m-= England never yet performed a disinterested national act of philanthropy. But the citi zens of the Southern States, since the adop tion of the Constitution, have emancipated 250,000 negro slaves. Assuming the E. verage value of these slaves to have been five hurt: dred dollars, which is under rather than over the mark, the citizens of the Southern States have contributed $125,000,000 towards e»xan eipation. And when we consider that in al most every case of individual emancipation at the South, a sum equal to the full value of the slave, has been invariably given to him to enable him to purchase a home for himself, and in addition to this, the immense sums contributed to the Colonization Society by others, we do not exaggerate the sum volun tarily bestowed in this way by the South, when we set it down at $250,000,000. This immense sum has been actually paid out, not interest only, but principal also ;—not by a rich public treasury, but by private families, who lived by the slaves they surrendered ; not for the public eye, but in the retirement of private life;- , .not under circumstances which provided the slightest hope of pecuni ary emolument, but from no other possible motive than quiet and conscientious senti ment. What can the defamers of the South and of Democracy say to these facts? The fifth great philanthropic manifestation made by the Southern States and their citi zens in this. connection, may be found in the fact, that they have effectuated a larger con version of the heathen than the whole world beside, through` the conversion of their negroes from Barbaric Polytheism to Christianity/ and God. What is the whole number of Heath ens which the ,American Church presents -at this day as converts to Christianity? The American Board of Missions have 26,000; the Baptist, 15,000; the Methodist, 13,000; the Presbyterians, 250; and the Epipcoppli ails only "il—in all 54,321. For this state ment I am indebted to' the Rev. Dr, Stiles, of the Presbyterian Church North. Now, one branch alone of the Methodist Church South, numbers 134,722 negro-slave members, more than three times the number of heathen con verts than the combined American Church can produce. The number of members in the whole heathen church of the world, ac cording to the ablest and best authorities, reaches only 200,000 members. Look again at the South. To say nothing whatever of the colored members of the churches in Ma ryland, (and they . arc numerous;) nor of those of the Presbyterian Church South; nor those of the Episcopal Church South; nor those of the Lutheran Church South, and several oth er denominations, all of - which have many colored members, There are enrolled upon the lists of two church denominations alone, at the South, negro-members in the Methodist Church 134,000, and in the Baptist Church 130,000, making in these two branches only, 264,000 heathen converts. Thus it appears that the South and her citizens have redeem ed scores of thousands more of the family of man from savageism and heathenism than all the churches of the "Free Soil" of the world combined have yet gathered within their fold. It seems indeed, that the Almighty in his wisdom has selected southern institutions and southern philanthropy, through the grace of the Saviour, as his methods of removing the curse from Ham and redeeming Africa.— What, I again ask, have the defamers of the South and ofDemocracy to say to these facts? They can only answer through the ravings of fanaticism ! I might enlarge upon the great additional philanthropic fact connected with the subject of the vast social and mental improvement of the negro slave of the Southean States, since his first introduction there by old England and New England, but I fear to impose too much upon you. When landed in this coun try, the African captive belonged to the most degraded heathen and barbarian tribes upon the face of the globe. His descendants are now far removed from the universal debase ment of his progenitors. Changes for the better have marked the history of negro sla very from its commencement to the present hour.. Not only has the slave been redeemed from barbarism to civilization, and from heaths enism to christianity, but from being in his social condition, a blood-thirsty and predato ry animal, living by the butcheries ho was eternally committing upon his fellows, he has been rendered an orderly member of society, humane to his fellows, and of vast benefit to the family of man. The laws of the South ern States in reference to the negro slave, are more benign than any code of laws in refer ence to a subject class, ever framed among men; and the customs of the dominant class exact from him less labor, and bestow upon him more care than the customs of any dom inant class in Europe exact from and bestow upon its so7called " •,.13-ee white laborers." Ev erywhere else in the world the laboring class es have to proyide themselves with houses, lands, clothing, food, fuel and niedical atten dance, and have also to take care of their aged, infirm and adol,escent. If one i$ too old for work, or too infirm for work, or too young for work in other societies, and has no family or friend -who can and will proyide for him out of his daily acquired pittance, he necessarily has to appeal to charity and the alms house for the means to sustain life : — The daily receipts of the day laborer, even in the best regulated communities elsewhere, but scantily supply the means of paying rent, and providing requisite food, raiment, fuel, and medical attendance for himself and fami ly. Sickness or accident often subject him to the mercy of his landlord, and render him destitute of the necessaries of life. In the Southern States the negro slave is always bountifully supplied with all the necessaries of life, never suffers from the want of medi cal attendance, has his aged and infirm and adolescent amply provided for, and reared in comfort, cultivates the land whose products return to himself rent free; and never, from the hour of his birth to the day of his death, passes a day without being secure in his ten ement and home. Even his family, though liable to be sold, are nevertheless more uni ted in time and space, than the families of the slaveholders themselves, and incompara bly more so than the families of the North that rarely "abido in one story," which fact is too easy of demonstration to p.dmit of ar gument. In conclusion, the census of 1850 exhibits the statistics showing less blindness, deafness, lunacy and suffering among the negro slaves of the South than among any other four mil lion of laborers in the universe, with regard to whom statistics have been made; and to this fact our enemies can answer nothing. The third position I assumed in our Con vention I will consider in my next, Yours, very respectfully, JOHN TYLER. EUSINESS NOTICES. Plain and Fancy Printing.
