CHARM'S niCKENS.
[From Uio N: Y. Herald.)
... On the22d of. January, in the year of grace
1842, ilr. cSiarles Dickens and
»t Boston, after a passage of eigiitcen ,(lay s
from Liverpool, in the steamship fhitanma.
At that time Elder Knapp and John INew
land Maffit were stirring up the “ n “°™ fl ™cd
great -vigor, Yankee Sullivan had 5“

on in New York, and the State of Jl ‘s ss ®PPt
SiSigt,
Sw EnglaS sa?s the Herald .of a few
davs later was immediately infected with
the Boz fever, and the contagion spread with
• wonderful rapidity all over the country. The
tailors began to turn out Boz breeches, the
Sihtaers to make Pickwick petticoats, the
confectioners to make Samivel Veller candy,
and the grocers advertised Boz tea as the
onJV acceptable beverage.
THE ARRIVAL OF PICKENS.
After a lengthy account of th» appearance
of the steamer and of the crowd on the
wharves, the great Boz is thus described.
As for Boz himself, he was walking the
hurricane deck of the steamboat, with his
hands buried in a singularly unfashionable
depth in a coat about three times as shaggy
as the bide of a Siberian hear, and which, by
the bv is not by no means a coat winch win
lose caste in the streets of New York; cause
•vy, it ha’nt got any cast to lose. There s no
one as vears such coats now, and so we can t
place it any vere. . , , ,
But, barring the coat, which entirely hid
his little legs and a little cockney hat, stuck
jauntily upon seventeen fibres of about as
■many of Boz's go-between brown hairs
(cause it’s neither light brown nor dark
brown), which bat, like Sam Weller s, seems
to have an indescribably independent air ot
its own, being unlike any other that s been
seen in' this city for the last seventeen years
—barring these two external luxuries oflite,as
the newsboys call them, Boz was dressed
pretty much the same as the majority
of the male sex in this city. He certainly
had on a pair of pantaloons (the color whureot
we were not close enough to decipher), a
coat, vest, shirt, stockings, boots and cravat.
As to a shirt collar, we can’t swear posi
tively or to the best of our belief, for no col
lar was visible, save the collar of the atore
said Bhaggy coat, and an unusual amount ot
choler among the highly .respectable ragged
gentlemen on the dock, who,, by reason ot
being in the rear of the crowd could not see
Boz. Boz walked up and down the prome
nade deck in high spirits, as the boat came
up our beautiful—rapturously, thrice beauti
ful and blessed river—he looked to earth—to
stream and sky—and gave to the God ot all
the earth the silent tribute of his admiration,
as his large, bright eyes took in at every view
the beauties of. each scene. At times his
lovely wife was by his side, silently joining
him in ■'his enthusiastic admiration ot the
beauties of nature.
TIIE BOSTOfN DINNER TO DICKENS
[From the New Vork Herald, Feb. t>, IMS.]
The dinner given to this gentleman by a
portion of the young literatenrs of Boston,
on Tuesday afternoon, at Papahtis Hall,
passed off very pleasantly. The company
numbered about two hundred, and sat down
at five o’clock. Hon. Josiah Quincy, Jr.,
presided, and George S. Hillard, Esq., Hr. O.
W. Holmes, J. T. Stevenson, Esq., .and. E.
G. Loring; Es'q., acted as Vice Presidents.
Among the invited guests present were his
Honor, the Mayor, President Qumcy, Wash
ington Allston, Richard H. Hana, T., G.
Grattan, George Bancroft, W. H. Gardner,
Franklin Dexter,' Judge Warren, Dr. Bige
low, Dr. Palfrey and Rev. Caleb Stetson, of
Medford, the Pickwick of the. party. '
A blessing was invoked by the Rev. Dr.
Parkman. „ , , .
After the preliminaries of the dinner had
been gone through with, Mr. Quincy rose
and addressed the company in a veiy appro
priate speech, alluding in happy terms to the
arrival of the distinguished guest, who had
come among us “with no hereditary title, no
military laurels, no princely fortune, and yet
his approach is hailed with pleasure by every
age and condition, and on liis arrival he is
welcomed as a long known friend. ” He goes
on to say, “but when reflection leads us to
the causes of this universal sentiment, we
cannot but bp struck by the power which
mind exercises over mind —even while *we
are individually i.
other conditions of our present being. Why
should we not welcome liiih as a Have
we not walked with him in every scene ol
varied life? Have we not together investi
gated with Mr. Pickwick the theory of Tit
tlebats? Have we not traveled together in
the‘Markis of Granby,’with old Weller on
the box, and his son SamiveljOn the dickey?
Have we not been rook shooting with Mr.
Winkle,and courting with Mr. Tupman? Have
we not played cribbage with'the Marchioness,
and quaffed the rosy with Dick Swiveller?
Tell us hot of animal magnetism. <We, and
thousands of our countrymen, have, for years,
been eating and talking, riding and walking,
dancing and sliding, drinking and sleeping
with our distinguished guest, and he never
knew one of us. Is it wonderful that we are
delighted to see him, and to return, in a
- measure, his unbounded hospitalities? Boz a
stranger! Well may we exclaim, with-'Sir
John Falstaff/D’ye think we didn’t know ye?
We knew ye as well as him that made ye.’ ”
After referring to the peculiar excellences
of Mr. Dickens!, writings, which “touch the
tender sympathies and womanly devotion,"
he concluded as it is not to
scenes like jhese that I would recall you. I
would that my voice could reach the ear of
every admirer of -our guest throughout the
land, that with us'mey might welcome him
on this, his first public appearance, to our
shores. Like the rushing of many waters, it
would come to us from the bleak hills of Can
ada,from the savannahs of the South, from the
prairies of the W cst, uniting in an 1 ‘eartin [uake
.voice, in the cheers which we welcome
."Charles Dickens to the Kew World."
Mr. Qumcy concluded with the following
sentiment;
“Health, happiness and a hearty welcome
to Charles Dickens."
This toast was received with tremendous
applause. As soon as the cheering had sub
sided, Mr. Dickens responded with the fol
lowing address, which he delivered in a warm,
fluent and manly tone.
Gentlemen— lf you had given this splen
did entertainment to any one else in the whole
wide world—if I were here to-night to exult
• in the triumph of my dearest friend—il.l
stood here upon my defence to repel auy un
just, attack—to appeal as a stranger to your
generosity and kindness as the freest people
on the earth —I could, putting some restraint
upon myself, stand among you as self-pos
sessed and unmoved as I should bp alone in
my own room in England. But when I hear
the echoes of your cordial greeting ringing in
my ears—when I gee' your kind faces beaming
a welcome so warm and earnest as never man
had, I feel—it is my nature—so vanquished
and subdued . that 1 have hardly fortitude
enough to thank you. If your President, in
stead of pouring forth that delightful mixture
of humor and pathos which you have heard
with so much delight.had been but a caustic,
ill-natured man —if he had only been a dub
l covUU e&ly tore doubted oidis-
trusted hint or. you—l should have had my
•wits aV my fingers’ends, and, using them,
could have held you at arm’s length. But
you have given me no such opportunity; you
take advantage of me in the tendercst point;
you give me no chance of playing at com
pany or holding you at a-distance, hut lloclc
about me like a heist of brothers, and make
this place like home. Indeed, gentlemen,
indeed, if it be natural and allowable for each
of us, on his own hearth, to express his
thoughts in the most’homely fashion, and to
appear in his plainest garb, I a fair
claim upon you to let me do so to-night, Tor
you have made my house an Aladdin’s palace.
You fold so tenderly within your breasts that
common household lamp in which my feeble
fire is all enshrined, and at which my flicker
ing torch is lighted up,that straight'my house
hold gods take wing, and are transported here.
And whereas iffls written of that fairy struc
ture that it never moved without two shocks
—one when it rose, and one when it settled
down—l can say of mine, that however sharp
a tug it took to pluck it from its native
ground, it struck at once an easy and a deep
and lasting root into this soil, and .loved it’as
its own; I can say more of it, and say w it.i
truth, that long before it moved, or had a
chance of moving, its master—perhaps from
some secret sympathy between its timbers
and a certain stately tree that has its being
hereabout, and spreads its broad branches far
and wide—dreamed by day and night, for
years, of setting foot upon this shore, and
breathing this pure air. And, trust me, gen
tlemen, that if I had wandered here, unknow
ing and unknown, I would—if I know,, my
own heart —have come with all my sympa
thies clustering as richly about this land and
people —with all my sense of justice
as keenly alive to their high claims
on every man who loves Gods
image—with all my energies as fully bent on
I judging for myself, and speaking out, and
telling in my sphere the truth, as I do now,
when you rain down your welcomes on my
head. Yonr President has alluded to those
writings which have been my occupation for
some years past; and you have received his
allusions in a manner which assures me—it 1
needed any such assurance —that we are old
friends in the spirit, and have been in close
communion for a long time. It is not easy
for a man to speak of his own Works. I dale
sav that few .persons have been mdre in
terested in mine than I, and if it be a general
principle in nature that a lover’s love is blind,
and that a mother’s love is blind, I believe it
may be said of an author’s attachment to the
creatures of his own imagination, that it is a
perfect model of constancy and devotion, and
is the blindest of all. But the objects and
purposes I have had in view are voiy
plain and simple, and may be easily
told. 1 have always had, and shall always
have an earnest and true desire to contribute,
as i'ar as in me lies, to the common stock ot
healthful cheerfulness and enjoyment. I have
always had, and always shall have, an in
vincible repugnance to that mole-eyed- philo
sophy which loves the darkness and winks
and scowls in the light. I believe that virtue
shows quite as well in rags and.- patches as
she does in purple and fine linen. I believe
that she and every beautiful object in ex
ternal nature claims some sympathy- in the
breast of the poorest man who breaks his
scanty loaf of bread. 1 believe that she goes
barefooted as well as shod. I believe that
she dwells rather oftener in alleys and by-ways
than she does in courts and palaces; and that
it is good, and pleasant, and profitable to
track her out,'and follow her. I believe that
to lay one’s hand upon some of thos>c rejected
ones whom, the world has too loug forgotten,
and too often misused, and to say
to the proudest and most thoughtless,
these creatures have the' same ele
ments and capacities of goodness as your
selves; they are moulded in same form
and made of the same clay; and though ten
times worse than yoh, may, in having re
tained anything of their original ... nature
amidst the trials and distresses of their con
dition, be really ten times better—l, believe
that to do this is to pilrsue a worthy and not
useless avocation. Gentlemen, that you think
so too, your fervent greeting sufficiently
assures me. That this feeling is alive in the
Old World as well as in the New, no man
should know better than I—l, who have
found’such wide and ready sympathy in my
own dear land. That in'expressing it we are
but trending in the steps of those great master
spirits who have gone before, we know by
reference to all the bright examples in our
literature,"from Shakspearc There
is one other point connected wilh the labors
. 'WI-may call them so) that you hold in such
I'&erieroiflfr esteem, to which 1 cannot he/p
adverting. I cannot help expressing the de
light, the more than happiness, it was to me
to find so strong an interest awakened
on this side of the water in favor of that little
heroine of mine, to whom your President has
made allusion, who died in her youth. I had
letters about that child, in England, Irom the
dwellers in log houses among the morasses,
and swamps and densest forests and deepest
solitudes of the Far West. Many a sturdy
hand, hard with the axe and spade, and
browned by the summer's sun, has token up
the pen and written to me a little history ot
domestic joy and sorrow, always coupled, X
am proud to say, with interest in that little
tale, or some comfort or happiness derived
from it; and the writer has always addressed
me, not as a writer of books for sale, resident
some four or five thousand miles away, but as
. a friend to whom he might freely impart, the
iovs and sorrows of his own fireside. Many
a mother—l could reckon them now by
dozens, not by units —has done the like, and
has told me how she lost such a child, at6uch
a time, and where she lay buried, and how
good she was, and how, in this or that re
spect,- she resembled Nell. I do assure you
that no circumstance of my life has given me
one-hundredth part of the gratification.Miave
derived from this source. I was wavering at tne
time whether or not to wind up mv clock,
and come and see this country; and-this deci
ded me. I felt as if it were a positive duty, aS
if I were bound to pack up my clothes and
come and see my .friends. And even now X
have such an odd sensation in connection
with these things, that you have no chance
of spoiling me. I feel as though we were
agreeing—as indeed we are, if we substitute
for fictitious characters the classes from which
they are drawn—about third parties, in\
whom we had a common interest. At every
new act of kindness on your part, I say it to
myself—that’s for Oliver—l should not won
der if that were meant for Smike —I have no
doubt it is intended for Nell; and so 1 became i
a much happier, certainly, but a more sober
i and retiring man than ever I was betore.
Gentlemen, talking of my friends in America
brings me hack, naturally anti of course, to
I you. Coming back to you, and being thereby
i reminded of the pleasure we havo m store m
hearing the gentlemen who sit about me, 1
arrive at the easiest, though not by the shortest
course iix the world, at the end of what 1
have to say. But before I sit down, theie
is one topic on which I am desirous to lay
particular stress. It has, or should have, a
strong interest for us all, since to its litera?
ture overy country must look lor _ one great
, means of refining and improving its people,
and one great source of national pride and
honor. You have in America great
writers—great writers—who will live
in all time, and are as familiar
to our lips as household words.

less degree, in their several walks) their in-

spiration from the stupendous country that
gaye them birth, they diffuse a. better know
ledge of it, and a higher love of it, all over
the civilized world. I take leave to say, m
the presence of some of those gentlemen,
that I hope the time is not far distant when
they, in America, will receive of right some
substantial profit and return in England from
their labore; and when we, in England, shall
receive some substantial profit, and return in
America from ours. Pray do not misunder
stand me. Securing to > myself from day to
day the means of an honorable subsistence, 1
would rather have the affectionate regard of
my fellow men than I would have heaps and
mines of -golds-' But-the--two- things do-hot
seem to me incompatible. They cannot be,
for nothing good is incompatible with justice.
There must be. an infferhational arrangement
in this respect; England has done her part;
and I am confident that the time is not far
distant when America will do hers. It be-'
comes the character of a great eountiy;firstly,
because it is justice; secondly, because with
out it you never can have, and keep, a litera
ture of your own. Gentlemen, I thank you,
with feelings of gratitude such as are not
often awakened, and can never be expressed.
As I understand it to be a pleasant custom
here to finish with a toast, I would beg. to
give you.
“America and England, and may they
never have any division but the Atlantic be
tween them.”
The speeches and toasts delivered on this
occasion occupy ten columns. We have given
all that is worth giving.
Mr. Dickens retired at one o'clock, and the
company soon after broke up,highly gratified
and delighted with the rich intellectual enter
tainment they had enioye d.
THE NEW YORK IiAIJ
From a long account of the; preparations
for the New York Ball we-extraettko follow
ing. The reader will remember that there
was a series of tableaux representing scenes
from Dickens's novels:
• As to the dancing, that was the funniest
that could possibly be imagined. The com
pany had mostly all assembled at a re
markably early hour —even before eight
o’clock. They filled and crammed every
part of the house. Every seai in the first and
second tiers of boxes was filled; the lobbies
were literally jammed full by eight o’clock.
There was scarcely any such thing ns passiug
or repassing in that quarter. And when
those who mapaged to struggle' through the
crowd up to the box entrance, so as to get a
peep at the stage, “one look was enough,”
(as the young woman said -when she peeped
into her lpistress’s love letter), and they gave
up in despair all idea of dancing for that
night. The floor, from the centre box
to the scene at the back, of the stage, was
one immense jam. There never was anything
like it seen in this city, country or any other.
Such a tremendous mob of well-dressed per
sons! Never were so many fashionable,
beautiful and well-dressed ladies so insuffer
ably squeezed up before in any place, or
uhder any circumstances. There was a mag
nificent crowd in which a celebrated auction
eer lost his wife, and although he searched
diligently, for three-quarters of an hour, it
took him all that time,to find her.. And yet
thero.was no ill humor shown.' Everyone
appeared pleased—all looked happy yes,
and even delighted. They saw that there
was;a great deal of good. sense, some little
nonsense, and a world ot fun in tiny affair,
and they were determined to enjoy it, and
make more if possible—particularly the
ladies, who made as much fun and laughed
as heartily as any of the gentlemen. In
proof of this we need only state that there
they stood, jammed and crammed together
on that stage for an hour and a quarter be
fore Boz came, or before anything but the
great, broad, indescribable joke of the
evening occurred to relieve them. Still they
looked at each other and laughed, and looked
at the house and laughed, and looked at
themselves and laughed and laughed again.
Everybody wondered and asked, as the old
■woman did at the siege of Belgrade, when the
performances would begin, and how they
would begin. At last, about nine o’clock,
Barry said to Simpson, “I think wed better
begin the tableaux; he may he half an hour
yet before he comes, and they won’t know
what to do with themselves, or what to think
of the whole affair by that time. They can t
dance, and, by George, they must do some
thing, or we must do something.” “Very
well,” said Simpson, “begin.”
" Bang went the great gong; everybody
jumped with surprise—some with alarm
and a cry arose of “Boz is coining!”'“Boz is
coming!” But Dickens didn’t come, and
bare ; .r ' 'J&fffcfftgaia. “lie’s come
now,” was the generalrettrark, “where is he?”
“There he is," said some seven or eight
wags, as the drop curtain arose from before
the tableaux, and represented John Povey in
green velvet smalls, with a wonderful.poste
rior protuberance and fantail jacket to match,
with the*tw6 inch tail, in that part, forming
one of the characters at Mrs. Leo Hunter’s
fancy dress dejmne. “That’s him,” “thats
Boz!” Most unoriental roars of laughter fol
lowed this. Bang went the gong again—down
went the painted drop,laugh after laugh broke
forth from several most beautiful lips, and.
again the curious and unearthly,indescribable
buzz or. hum of sounds' of many voices, that
was heard so often that niglit, broke forth
and was kept up until Boz really came.
Something like an attempt was made at a
dance, but the jam was then at “its height,
as the man said just before he jumped off the
monument. The music struck up, but
Satan himself could not have struck up so
much as.a reel of a stagger in that most
magnificent mob. And this continued for
twenty minutes, the Mayor and lady and Phil
Hone standing in the centre of the stage the
whole time, till at last, by sundry cabalistic
signs, nods of the head, and motions ol the
hand, it was evident that Boz, like the Camp-,
bells, was coming—and tfien the buzz became
beautifully bewitching.
: After Boz had been introduced to the Lady
Mayoress and several gentlemen, and been
shaken by the hand till his arm ached, he
breathed heavily, cast one look up at the
house, partly curious, partly bewildered,
partly satiric, and a good deal humorous, bang
went the gong again—bang—bang—up went
the drop, and there was the lady and 1 ick
wick in the double-bedded room. All laughed'
at this, except Charles Dickens himself, and
even ho could not help smiling at the funny
nature of the whole affair.
. In the midst of the laughing, bang went the
gong, down went the curtain, and then there,
was a most awful rush to get a sight of Boz.
.Elderly Indies, both of certain and uncertain
ages, married and spinsters, "rich and poor,
old and young, handsome and homely, all
strained their eyes, and some few their necks
(as a goose does when it sees a stranger) to
catch a'glimpse of his face. But he was so
provokingly short that the thing was impos
sible. At last it was proposed to march him
rovtnd the room. The band struck up; three
gentlemen went abreast first like pioneers to
clear a passage through the well-dressed
crowd, which was accomplished With dread
fill difficulty. Boz, with the Lady Mayoress
■tnr' his arm, came next; and then General
Morris- with Mrs. Dickens, then—the Lord
- knows who came after that, for the crowd
fell in and one couldn’t tell who from which.
After another tableau, by dint of some ter
rible efforts on the part of Duncan Pell,
JainesA. Smith, and several of the Floor
Committee, a space was cleared large enough
to form some half » dozen cotillione; the
music struck- up, and Boz found himself ,
danciDg With somebody—but it is extremely
doubtful -whether he knew, hi the confusion,
'who it was or not; for there was hardly
room to breathe. Still, he worked the mus
cles of his face and forehead up and down,
laughed out of his large mouth (pretty fair
mouth too, considering it is only a mouth),
and took his turn dance. It is true
that he “chassecd once, when he ought to
have gone “forward one,” and that he turned
himself when he ought to have turned *P
partner: but that he didn't turn his own head
off his shoulders, or get it turned, lor him
thfttnigiit,“ is one of the funniest afiairs oi the
CT The hist we saw of Boz, he was in the
lobby of the second tier, coming lrom the
direction of the refreshment room, m com
pany with his-lady, the Mayor, &c. And he
was then looking pretty effectually used up.
It appears that the excitement, the. crowd,
the talking, the heat, the dust, the fuu, the
sensiwidin, tlio cotip d’ccU, the whom thing
had gMen him a sore throat, or what seemed
a venngood imitation of it, and the 1 Mayor
kindly took him'and his lady home in his car
riage about midnight. And that was the last
. of Boz that night.
-sEniial IligUtK Convention In Delaware
Wii.MixoTox, Del., Sept. -t.—The advocates ot
emial rights atul impartial sutfrago in tins State
licdd high carnival'to-day, at Wilmington Insti
tute, in this city, on the occasion of the State
Convention, to select delegates to attend a Con
vention of the Border States, namely, Delaware,
Maryland, West Virginia, Kentucky, Tennessee
and'Missouri, to be held at Baltimore,on the 12th
of September, for the purpose of soliciting Con
gress to pass the bill establishing impartial suf
frage and civil and political rights to all persons,
irrespective of color, throughout the entire
Union. ' A
The spacious hall was filled to its utmost ca
pacity, and the scene presented was unparalleled
(as far as its political character was concerned)
in the history of the Diamond State.
The call for the Convention was signed by
over three hundred prominent citizens, and
among them were such shining Delawarean lights
as lion. S. M. Harrington, Ely Bradford, llan-
Sou Robinson and C. S. Dayton. , .
The Convention, about two-thirds ot winch
was composed of colored persons, was called to
orderut twelve o'clock by Dr. William C. David
son, of Milford, who was appointed temporary
Chairman. Committees on Permanent Organi
zation, Resolutions and on tile Selection ot Del
egates were then named, alter which the Con
vention adjourned until two o’clock R. M.
AH'KKNOUN ■SKSSION.
nr. Davidson, the temporary Chairman, called
the Convention to order, and .Mr. John P. M.;-
Lear, front the Committee on Permanent Organi
zation, reported Lewis Thompson, Esq., res per
manent President, and a largo-number of gentle
men from New Castle, Kent and Sussex counties,
as Vico Presidents and Secretaries-
The gentlemen named in the report were elected
officers of the Convention by acclamation,.and
Mr. Thompson took the. Chair.
He made a brief address, thanking the Conven
tion for the honor so unexpectedly bestowed upon
Mm, and stating that he considered.it a high
honor indeed to be called to preside at the first
Convention in favor of E(]uai. flights ever held in.
Delaware. ■. , ~
Mr. Harrington, from the Committee on Reso
lutions, then reported the following, which were
unanimously adopted: ...
Resoled, That the theory of our government,
the claims of impartial justice, thb equal rights of
citizens, and the ldvalty and iaithtuf services of
the colored people demand that the righL of suf
frage be extended to them in common with all
other loyal citizens; and we respectlully petition
Congress to confer and secure this right at the
earliest possible period by such legislation as it
may deem right and appropriate.
Resolved, That in the State, of Delaware there
does not exist a republican form of government
because of the exclusion of a number of her
colored citizens from participation in the enjoy
ment and exercise of political rights, and because
of the gross inequality of representation in the
Legislature, whereby less than one-half of the
citizens wield the power of the State. We hereby
call upon Congress to assure to us the guarantees
of tho Constitution of the United States in every
Ill's"led, That we demand the recognition by
law cf the entire equality of all American citizens,
without regard to color, in all civil and political
rights and privileges, and the protection and en
couragement of the government to enable every
man to occupy whatever position liis virtues and
intelligence may quality him to hold.
Resolved, That wc confidently look to Cangresß
to adopt, at its approaching session, such mea
sures as will effectually remove every obstacle to
reconstruction, secure a faithful execution oi the
laws, and sustain those officers,civil and military,
who are carnestlv and bravely endeavoring to
carry ou t tho will of the people aud of their
chosen representatives. . .
Resolved, That standing upon these principles,
and having no motive but to prdffiota the happi
ness. peace and permanence of our country, and
to elevate our fellow-men of every race, we are
content to wait,, through successor defeat, until,
in the Providence of God, our republic, shall be
■ established-uppn the basis-of. virtue, and justice.

The report of the committee was adopted, and
the gentlemen named appointed delegates.
On motion of Mr. Bancroft, sucli ol the dele
gates ns could not attend were empowered to ap
point alternates.
The Hon. J. A. J. Creswell, ex-United States
Ssmitor from Maryland, was then introduced. He
spoke at considerable length in favorof manhood
suffrage and of tho exerciee of the duty empow
ered upon Congress, by the Constitution, ol
guaranteeing to each State of tho Union a repuo
fienn form of government. Th.e speaker was par
ticularly severe upon President Johnson, styling
him “a living lie embalmed In whisky." He re
viewed the various Congressional meusures oi re
construction, and favored striking out of tho law
of the land every line that made one man the
lord of another, or decreed that one man should
live by the sweat of another man’s
brow. The speaker alluded to .Generals Sheridan
and Sickles in glowing terms, (and his eulogy on
those two renowned patriots produced the great
est enthusiasm. He had tho greatest confidence
in General Grant, and bolioved that he would be
found as true to tho' best interests of the country
in the future as ho had proved in the past. The
speaker doubted the assertion that the black man
would vote as hiß former mastor does, and cited
. the. lata elections in the District of Columbia and
Tennessee, to prove that the negro will vote ac
cording to his own political convictions. He said
that in Maryland there were thirty thousand
blacks, and in Delaware thirty-six hundred,and if
the right of suff rage was extended to them, those
States would prove as radically loyal as Massa
chusetts. The speaker then reviewed-the whple
suffrage question at length. , .
The Hob. William D. Kelley, oi Pennsylvania,
■wna then introduced, and received with great
applause. He said, how rapidlv tho world moves
on, and how old John Brown ssoul leads it on
The Judgo wanted the delegates to the Baltimore
State Convention to hear a messimo fiom him,
that lie endorsed every word of the admirable
resolutions offered by Mr. Harrington, lie sa v
early in the war that it was the boumtaMluly of
the government to rally in tho deience ol tke
national flag all of its citizcns irrcspLCt ve ot
color, and that they must risk their lives in de
fence of the principles of the loyal

that four millions of its most robust cUi/xtis
were dcoply interested in its result, and tn t
victory would - not perch upon our bunncis

poVver Of these four millions of people as we met
their military services during the rebellion, iv e
cannot rc construct a siugle Southern State witn
out tlioir consent and tlicir aid. ,Sonic time or
oilier a Stale Government must bo organized, in
tlie Southern, StatHsjbut you cannot send white men
there, because they do not want to go, anil they
■would hardly be welcomed if they did go; out
in those States there are good , ,aml loyal
men who have proved bravo and trustworthy,
and to them we look for aid in effecting the
reorganization desired. The speaker scouted
the idea that these blacks are igno
rant; if they are. how many whites are the reverse
in the South? The last census shows that in Vir
ginia alone seventy thousand whites do not know
from a bults loot,’’ and it is so-in -ill the other
-Southern States. Yet these ignoramuses are to
be clothed with full political power, Rebels as
they are, because they are-white. Mr. Kelley
then reviewed the present state of ..outlieru
society, and illustrated the necessity ol impartial
suffrage as the sole remedy lor the political evils
now aUlieliDg the Southern people. Alter Mr.

Tlie Situation"ill Wnsliington.
The Washington correspondent ot
situation to-night lias resumed the
turbulence of last week, us it lias transpired tlut.,
iu view of tlie indirect attack on Grant in llie
President’s proclamation of this morning, an
outright rapture has occurred between them,
which I am assured will result in Grants leaving
the Cabinet before the end of this week. Later,
an interview occurred between the l resident and
‘’General Grant to-day, during which warm.words
passed regarding reconstruction matters, brought
up by the former's proclamation. There is
no doubt now blit wlmt the rupture be
i tween them is at last so open that a recon
ciliation is impossible. It is understood that
during the interview General Grant plainly told
the President that lie eon-idered his opposition
to the Congressional policy of reconstruction as
fortunate lor the country: “lor, ’ said lie, “it it
had not been for you the Southern.. States; would
have adopted tlie Constitutional Amendment.
Tlit-ir admission to Congressional representation
would have followed, and we would have bad
ten enemies, in the shape of sovereign States,, to
tlie Government in its councils, whereas now
they will be obliged to come in as Inends.
It is well-known that General Sickles acted by
and with the advic-e-of General Grant, and con.-.e
-ou'oßll- the latter cannot but consider the
proclamation as a dipect attack on him and an
insult-of the most 'offensive character., lne
President, as usual, refuses information to tlie
representatives of the loyal' press, hut some ot
his confidants, who are disgusted with his re
cent performances, do hot hesitate,: to make the
announcement that it is his intention To dis
place Grant, or force him to leave the .Cabinet
bv repetitions of ’such iusnlts; and their state
ments are confirmed by similar assertions irom
a member of the Cabinet, made in myf-presence
to-night. No one has been detimtclv
selected as Grant's successor, but I can say that
General Steed man lias not yet received
tlie offer of the place from the President, and I
have reason to believe that be wduld tioc accept
it if altered. 'He now bolds an exceedingly'
lucrative office in New. Orleans, which he is not
disposed to change for the doubtiul honor oi a
few weeks’ administration of the War Office.
He will return to New Orleans as soon as the
vcllow fever abates. In .conclusion, I venture
the prediction that Gen. Graut will be returned
to his legitimate duty as commander of the army
before the 10th instant; and In the meantime
tlie public may expect'a- most explicit statement
from him regarding his opinion of the political
situation, as the lion. Burtou C. Cook of Illi
nois. General Sehenck of Ohio, and Genera!
Shanks of Indiana, members of the L uton Con
gressional Executive Committee, have had inter
views with him,, during which they demanded,
on behalf of the Republican party, a formal expo
sition of bis political status. 11l reply, General
Grant expressed himself in the most decided
tenns as a confirmed Radical, and. gave the dele
gation assurances that he was willing to make
his views public whenever a proper opportunity
is offered, ft was agreed that the Executive Com
mittee should decide upon the best method to
bring the matter before the, public. General
Shanks and Mr. Cook had their interviews yes
terday, and General Selienek to-day.
Tlie AUibunwi Claims.
Los j ion, September Ith.—The 'i m<:.< ot tins
morning, commenting editorially on the corres
pondence between the British and American
Governments, in the Alabama case, says that
Secretary Seward Bhows by his despatches that
he is unwilling to forego, by a definite settlement,
a popular ground of complaint against England;
and, like a lawyer, is less anxious- lor judg
ement then" to prolong litigation. It asserts
-Thit the counter claims of-England foi indem
nity at least balance those ot tho United. States,
and complains that Seward now declines to
adopt tho plan of a mixed commission proposed
k^The 1 article concludes by saying that Lord
Stanley has acted all along in good faith, awl
with a determination not to give capital to a
circle ol American politicians who are ever
seeking causes of complaint against England; but
under the circumstances, he will watt until
the United States Government reduces its preten
sions.
, An invitation to n. Lion Hunt.
An invitation has been issued “to coura
geous huntsmen of all nations, to hunt lions,
panthers and other wild beasts of Algeria,
under the direction of M. Pertuiset, the lion
killer,” who invites “hunters of the large
feline race to accomt>any him to'Algeria, in
order to assist and take part in hunts worthy
of Nimrod, and to lace and openly fire upon
in broad daylight the king of animals. ” It is
arranged that “two grand special battues of
lions will take plaice every week, with the
assistance of from one hundred to two hun
dred native beaters. It will be expressly for
bidden to shoot at any animals except
lions. The amateur huntsmen will be assem
bled in parties of three, more or less, accord
ing to circumstances—M. Pertuiset alone
excepted, who will always make it a pleasure
to occupy alone the more dangerous post.
AThe night hunts will, when weather permits
it, be’made in ambush.
“A wild boar, hyena, panther, porcupine,
lynx, tiger cat, jackal, &e., hunt will take
place twice every week, with the assistance
of a numerous troop of On these
occasions the huntsmen will have th^nghtoi
firing at all kinds of animals w 1 thoutrestno
tion. A -shooting match will he held once or
twice a week, as may be most agreeable
the huntsmen. The number of hon bunts
may be increased as often as the presence

Every animal killed will be considered as be

All disputes me to be referred to a committee,
whose ludgmenlr is to be final. Twohand-

thceeneral votes of all the hunters as a re
ward and souvenir to the two -.sportsmen 1 -
who shall have given the greatest proofs of
courage and dexterity. In addition to the
above, a bronze medal, in • remembrance of
the expedition, will be presented to each sub
