In Maryland there were eighty-seven thousand

think what the people or the North would do.
The colored people of the South look to the
North to rescue them from the depths of degree
datlon into which the war has pluneed them.
Since the close of the war the people of the
South have eaten any kind of pie the North has
ceosen to rend them. They would make all
-kinds of concessions and promises, fully in
tending to break them so soon as the argument
of the bat oast was withdraw,. There has not
been a single ecclesiastical reunion between the
South and North. Except by the clergymen of
oar boned, not a word has been sold In any of
the pulpits in any Christian denomination of the
dales to be performed under the present dr
comstances. A silent church end slavery al
ways go together. He proposed to make the
clergy of the South do their duty, or else send
them up here to be taught, and get you to seed
down some of yours, who would do their duty.
When Ste applied for the use of a church in
Baltimore in which to hold our anniversa

not get one I that the churches had been
bothered to death with the negro. I a regard so

slavery again. It has been rather hard on the
white people for the past four years. The ques

left for it to propagate from. If you cut down

will coon sprint up to event direction, and soot

Doctor then read some extracts from the laws

to show that the negro bad only exchanged
one kind of slavery for another. He ale) read
extracts from papers, is relation to Outrages
perpetrated uroe the colored people. Extracts
from the laws recently passed in Mississippi,
thowing the status of the negro, were also read,

ADDRESS OT Ms. uannows.
Wm. Lloyd Ganison‘Esq.,:was thanintoxbaced
by the chairman, m the 'Wilberforce of the
United States, and was received with loud ap•
pietas. He expreaeed great gratification at be
tag able to address she oseetiesr, although
mewled with travel and exhausted with con
stant speaking. He alluded to tbe.old charges
which need to barnacle naiad the Aholltloolsta,
before the-war- - one of which was, that they
Were Lauer of neallallating two thousand Mll,
-liens Omahas property by freeing the hleTee
' The Alaalitlonlata never asked the South to N't
with one dollar's worthof real property. ell ea
were only nominally property, and if, tau relation
beteen touter and One ware changed oath.
Mg w would be annihilated but that figment of the
brain, property to mar.. The South had now got
rid of the system of 'slavery, but the spirit was
atEll there. The value of On slava was rapidly
passing the land, and the South was in
comparably better off to-day than, over before.
' Another charge was, that the Abolitionists de.
shed to torn the slaves loose. This was not
correct, as the Abollotusts only desired the free •
dem, education and elevation of the black race.
Before - the war, the Man who undertook to en
lighten the slaves would have paid the forfeit
of lalife; but now. that they have been e 111312.
drilled, and their shieklet broked, the geld was
open, and it was our duty to go to wok and
elevate them morally and politically.
The speaker then argued the qusation of prriv
dice la an able and exhaustive manse:. He
proved that the prejudice against the black man
and act originate from his earrplexion. God had
made his children as it pleased him to make
them, and no an could Improve His workman
ship.lr,o islavery.
prtjadke ligalOat Color was not innate—
was not planted in xaan a by y d
his B Maker, but had
If Its origin in the pr ide
thin prejudice were innate, then It must of Mane
be u n iv er sal_ Bat it was an admitted fact that
thmc wan ao colorphohia in England, and other
conni.cke "tick he mentioned. They did not
know what it meant when yen talked of preju
dice ~galnet a man because his skin was black,
and you might as well tell them that the negro
was obnoxious because he had • head on his
shoulders! There was no prejudice against the
negro in Ireland, and yet many of thellish here
were terribly prejudiced againet that race. They
did act learn this prejudleo at hems, before es
caping from a Cs ranny little lees severe than
teat under which the slaves were held. It was
the outcropping of poor human nature, and
originated from the Irishman having at last
found a class a little helots. himself. Of all peo-
Ole in the world, the Irish people, who had es
caped from bondage themselves, should sympa
thize with the negro, and extend to him a help
ing hand.
There wee no thought of prejadlee when we
were stealing these blacks from their native
country—no prejudice against them while they
were being held in bondage. Boma men would
turn up their noses at the "nigger;' and then
step into a barber-shop and submit to have
that mime nore manipulated by black Began.
He proved the utter abeuridy of this prejudice
in omicrons ways, and sbowid conclusively
that it sprung from the system of slavery, and
nothing tire. A black skin simply Identified the
person to be hated—and a feather in the cap, or
a chalk teak on the back would answer the pur
pr se jest as well.
He then discussed the question of the boasted
superiority of the white over the black man,
and state d that, with all our boasted light and
knowledge, the blacks tr-day stood higher in
God's estimation than did we, because we had
conspired to degrade them and keep them down.
It was like clipping the wings of the eagle and
then taunting him because he could not 111.; or
like hamstringing the noble horse and then as
serting that he could not run. This was what
WC had been doing, and what we must not do
any more. There was no natural inferiority.
The Six hundred teachers now in the South bear
ti alimony to the fact that the colored children
learn with extraordinary facility. They were
most entimalastic in their desire for knowledge,
and their progress was truly wonderful. He
predicted that, in the not far distant future,
with proper training, out of this degraded mass
would spring up poets, philosophers, matemen
and divines—tnechanies, artisans, etc.
He then alluded to the debt which we owed
the colored people—a debt which had been ac
cumulating during two ',centuries and a half of
unrequited toll, and welch we could never re
pay. He also alluded to the debt of patriotism
which we owed them for having sent ewe hue.
dud thousand of their number into the deadly
hi each when our liberties were in peril. Many
christian people exhibited commendable Concern
about the condition of the heathen, and con
tributed largely to their enlightenment. Hay
ing had so agency in their degradation. nee had
no special etch ement to make in that direction.
There was simply an obilgailon to do what we
could to spread light and knowledge. But the
case was different with the millions of blacks
whom we had enslaved and degraded. We
sbculd now atone for the great wrong heaped
upon them. Having kept light and knowleoge
from them, we should now exert all our ener
gies in their elevation.
_Aside from the moral aspect of the case, there
were other realms why we should discharge this
deity. A vast field was now opening in the South
for the products of the North. The four millions
of colored people, heretofore subsisted mainly ea
corn bread and park, with• small allowance of
indifferent clothing, are now beginning to ease
money on their own account. and with
the increase of their means they are
enabled 10 x-archase better food, beLle r
clothing, and live in better style. They
want houses, agricultural im p lements, and
the various articles of which they have
long been deprived. The old cry •`that the
black man could not take care of himself' hal
proved an utter falsehood. Give him fair play
and lair pay, and there was on dans.ver as to his
taking care of himself. It was a grave
tine. howev. r, as to how some of the 01l slay
holders were to take care of themselves.
Mr. Gentian concluded by urging the friends
of Freedom to activity, vigilance and zeal, to
this important estate. If the people of the

It was about ten o'clock when Mr. Thomp
son was introduced to the audience, and owing
to tie lateness of the boor his aditrias was
brief, although. from the sicsirt,lng luter,o,
macifested, be could here held the meeting to
gether for abott er hoar. After some prelsmin
ary remarks In reference to the greatness of the
American people, he discussed the great question,
—What shall be done with the negro fits con
clusion was summed up tune: Do justies. He allu

Rev. Dr.Shlpheni. The burthen of their speeches

Intl the rust ihe blight, the mildew, the curse
of ahriarrp. He alluded to Lae terrible ordeal
[trough which Providence had brought ne as a
nation, and declared t "You must, by one sim
ple act of justice, put the negro where he ought
to stand, or you will have to enter again the
crucible of OW." He cited the cue of otter
nations which bad been blotted out of existence
for their sins, and asserted that the American
nation would be blotted out also If she did not
settle her account with the negro. We could
not pay the debt contracted during two hundred
and forty-five years of bondage, Irons the time
the first cargo of slaves was landed on James
River, bat the debt bad at 1113' been acknowl
edged, and se were now called rip,ri to pay the
first Instalment. We should continue to pay as
long as we lived, and bequeath the debt to oar
children es a sacred obligation renting on them.

skin, who would then sway him the right of

sod the stains of the negro could be ready set

tic° and enforce our laws, and coming t us
thus clothed, should we not take him "into our
house." Our drat edifice went down in dark
ness and blood-, because It was found
ed in unrighteous:lcm; and now that cur I
great business was Itsconstruelion, we should
see to It that we built wisely and writ. If we
refused to take these oppressed ones "into the
house," t ur edifice would co down eglln. Th.s
was the trial hour of America, and the question
was •`shrill you do Justice to the negro, or
you hand him over, towerless, unpitied and
bated to bit old muster? Will you not give him
the tights of a free man, and let hint tight his
battle for himself!" If we failed In the dis
charge of One duty now, see would surely entail
u;an our children a fearful War; but Irate would
but giro the negro his civil and political rights
we should secure the favor and blessing of heu
yen, and then would our Ship of State go for
ward In I romperity and power.

A complete and thorough education is a logs
m which every parent desires to b-stow n-xel
his children. IL is a treasure, which once ob
tained is never lost. A thoroughly educated
man can make his way through the world under
all circumstances. Even when sickness or deli
cate health preclude the possibility of active
business, a thousand avenues are opeuel to the
man who has stored his mind with that knowl
edge which Is to be valued above riches. Wealth
may take to itself wings, and fly away, but •
mind well stored with practical and thcoretical
knowledge has always a resource to fall back
upon.:

other offices In the rations college buildings,
thereby securing to the student the advaata
