Genflematisnir Lake :—I saw It published in last week's-Ape/4cm that I would speak here this cu.— cling on the subject or the rights of colonel --seen to citizenship. That is a mistake. I have never had any doubt that • the coloredmim was just nff Much entitled to citizenship as the whiten= r• therefore I shall not attempt. to convince:you of what to me seems a sett-evident , fact . The question which propose to ductlse #44 evening is the troldect of th e Rights of Men. Man is ti being who baa been tinted with %trims rights and varwne powers. But MIDI is a being who craves a great deal of power. When God created man hegave him dominion over the beasts of the field, the rowels of the air, and the Mites of the seas r but be-never gave him dominion over his fellow man. Proni , theloundation of the world to the present time, man has been in rebellion against this law of ,God. Nation has risen up agaieutt nation, peopleturainst people. Eta since the lan Of man the , spirit of the devil has been tinging man to oppress' Ids fellow, 'while the spirit or 4ght and just ice has stilt battled for the rights w hi ch God gave to every' man. At first It may only ben war of words, but from that it is often changed to thear hltrament of the sword. Sometimes the spirit of truth has seemed to,be bowed.for. etiale, but only to rise again stronger than before, while at other times she baa 'burled error rind oppression and proudly lifted the standard of freedom above their graves. Such Walt the contest Waged by our fathers when' they istablished our etistence as a nation. Black men then were regarded 'as citizens of the United States, and they were so regarded in Penn sylvania until your state Cottatitution was formed, then you inserted that word..tarhltetl in the Con stitution that gave us black Men something' of a position between an inland and, a tuna. You gave us the protection you did your homes and oxen, but you excluded us from the right of votink rind the right of holding offices that were enjoyed by you. You 'made this as a.sort otpeace offering' to the gods of the Smith. 'Ton gave them this, and-you gave them mores Whenever they asked a -thing they got ft. Theyasked of you the Missouri cons promise,and they trot it. Theyasked of you the fu gitive elate law, that i five the. human bloodhounds of th e Sontk,the t to Mint us wildbeWits, and gibe them the ght to Order you to help them do it, and;; they 'got that too. • Youlaid year faces in the duet and blindly gave them whatever they asked. • Where 'was the unfortunate slave tolind re. loge and safety t • Mire staid at thel Simth he: was whipped, chained. and aoldllke an ox to the highest bidder; his wife tor - citrons Warms and his childreb scattered helm:wit ontwhere: t=it: he lied to Abe North, he was met by the law that seat him back tb stripes and hourbge.

They are the same ,class of men that ex-Governor Seymour's t'llienda" consisted of, who murdered negroes in the New York riot,, and postedplacards In the streets offering Dye hundred dollars for. a nhrger to kill ; but when the draft came they were willing to pay a thousand dollars fir one to go en a substttuto to save their cowardly bodies from the tender mercies of their friend Jeff. Davis. The men who cry out so strong ly-,against, the employment of colored soldiers, against the emancipation proclamation, and against every other act that tends to strengthen the govern ment, Ste not the men who really have the good of the comity at heart. Thoy are men without soul 'enough to know what liberty means, and too cow• ardly to fight for It If they had ; who are disconso late because their Idol 'Shivery Is destroyed, and feel lest without a master to direct them. . . But some men among you whn are black enough in eVerything except thelrskins, cry out that we want to assoniate with the white man, tarry his daugh telVand- bells equal. ' Notv It is generally those who' are Conscious that they are not fit to be the 'equal of a negro who are fearful of such equality.— The drunken Irishman, whose kitchen, parlor, and pig-pen are one and- the mine y votes the "re,,,wMar nomination ' and damnst he "ea .gur " whenever he is told to do co—need never he afraid that we shall claim equality with him ; and as for marrying your daughters, wu have daughters of our own as good as yours. If such men as Judge Woodward and Bishop Hopkins had the keys of Heaven they would admit just enough black men to wait upon them, and no more. Let those who claim that Slavery is a divine and Godlike institution im agine tor a moment an angel whipping a negro slave I Now we do not ask you to give us any rights or privileges but those the Creator Intended we should have. Let us be free; let us own ourselves and our own labor, and we eau work out our fortunes The black man has proved his patriotism and his love for the institutions of this country—not the Institu tion of Slavery, but the institution of the Proclama tion of Freedom. On the bloody ti.ltis of Port Thud son and Ouloathe he mingled his blood with that of the white man. The slave Is tracking his way in blood from the deep abyss of slavery to where he constant) In the Irroad sunlight of freedom. God heard the cry of the oppressed and downtrodden, and Ho is working out their redemption In His own good time and manner. The cloud of despair that has so long chained the mind and body of the slave .Its :breaking, and the heavens betoken a glorious dawning. Within the last OA.aree years oar national affairs have undergone a t change. The rebel proper ty that Sherman I‘..afft in his rear doq not need a guard to keep it frbeing stolen. The assistance of black troops la h " 0 longer refused, while the last news from Richmond tells ue that rebels are making desperate strides towards the "last ditch," though Whether they will stop to die there Is a matter 01 great do-Ad. Even Jett Divis has turned Aboli tionist, and humbly beseeches the slave to again fasten the fetters on bluiself which the fortunes of' war have cast off. Copperheads should now follow the example of their leader and be Abolitionists too. This would bring a certain leader 01 the Democracy back to his old place again, with this differen m, that he could preach abolittonism la this or Bradford codnty without any danger of being pelted with rot ten eggs for expressing his sentlrovrita. The next question that will present Itself In the affairs of this nation Wilt be reconstruction. The South will esk for cotnpromlf.e. They will ask that slavery Se allowed to live, that the conti-cation law be repealed, and that a general amnesty be granted for all political olh'enders. So far an the question of punishing the leaders of the rebellion is concerned, I h... nothing 40 say. The mad munition and reck less fury of the men who commenced this war has made many orphans and widows and dotted the land :with graves. It ha burdened the nation with debt and spread a cloud of sadness all over the land. But the same war.that Las beta the cause of so much Ca lamity and aulfsring has brought [4e light of free dom to the hut of the shave._ The clank of the 'stave's chains might. have sounded in your cars till the day of Judgment ere von would have lifted' a fin ger to help him, if God, la his providenee, bad not melted them off in the fiery furnace of war. If, with what you have cuff- red, you can affard to let the lenders of the rebellion go free, I am sure we can do thei same: Bat should they esk you to again rivet oar fetters and 'hind them wi.h the sanction of law, *O-should most solemnly protest against it. When this war commenced and you avowed that abolition of slavery was no part of tour policy, the slave had no interest in It. If the Ltnion shoold be establish ed as it was, he would have his chains and servi tude the sauae as before., and it the rebellion succeed ed his condition was not altered. Not until the emancipation proclamation was issued was there alit Inducement for the negro to fight for either side. When that proclamation was Wetted it gave the slave the strongest inducement he etnild have—that of obtaining his personal freedom. To-day two hut, deed thousand black met follow the Stars and Stripes, and battle in the ranks—for what ' For the Union as It we.? That Union was the price of slavery grid the glare trade, and for eighty years slavery has been protected by it , Is It (or the Con stitution as it was" That Constitution doomed the blaCk man to perpetual bondage. No; they are fighting for their own freedom ; fur the right to pro tect their own wives and children. The compro mise I would give them would be the Union us It ought to be, free from the lakes to the gulf and from ocean to ocean ; and the Con:titution as it la with neatest. amendment, with the emancipation procla mation thrown in. We ask.you now to be true to yourselves and to poaterity,' Three times you have paid the price of a free country,' let It 'not again revert to slavery and barbarism. By making the conntty free you will not only he Snit to yourselves but von will be gen erous to the South. Instead of being politically a blot upon the nation's honor, and practically aslave pen, as it has beep, the giant Impetus of free labor wilt make it the garden of thin continent. In this `yen Will have the strongest guarantee of your coun try's future peace and re A. nation free wilt g be a nation united!

Mr. Aimavne did not observe the Iltile Moo nosed boy, crouching by the brilliantly Illuminated plate gluts window, as he sprang oat of bbreurriage and went into the throngad shop. How should be? Bat little 800 narrates eyes, eager with the sickly glare or extreme poverty, took in every detail of the rich num'a equipage, and his purple fingers clasped one, another tighter as ho looked. "Oh!" he thought, "hoe ntco It must bete be rich—to have cushioned earrisgea, and bik zed eras, and minced pies every day! Ohl I wish I were rich!" And Ben shrank closer Into his comer as the wind flattemd his thin, worn clothing, and lifted the, curls with freezing touch, from his forehead. Nor did Mr. Almayno observe him, when he en tered his carriage, drawing on his expensive fur gloves; and leaning. among the velvet chnelons' with a sigh scarcely less earnest ttan little Ben's had been. The child's, ideal of a " big red fire " would bAve been quite realized if he could have seen the scarlet shine that Illuminated Mr. Almayne's luxuriona drawing rooms that night, glowing softly on gilded tables, alabaster vases, and walls of rose andTld— while, just 'before the gentle flame the pain Iv dos , er eat, thonghtiblly watching the flickering spires of green amethyst light, and very lonely in IthiSplendid solitude. " I wonder what made me think of home just then," be murmured, idly tapping hie feet ny4n the velvet rig. "I wonder what alchemy confuted ttp. the broken bridge, where the willow branches* swept the waters—the bridge where little Clara Willis used to sit and study her lessons, while I angled vainly for the fishes that never Would bite? How lovely she wee, that golden halm!' girl, With her blue veined for ehead and dark, downcast eyes! I was very much In love with Clara W ilia; in those boy and girl days. I should like to know on what shore the waves of time have cast her barque. It is not ()tutu that a person one has known In ntng-syne vanishes so entirely and utterly from one's horizon.

As the thought passed through his bruin. he In stinctively glanced down at his finger upon which he wore the betrothal gift of his dead wife.

" What was it about a glove, Ben - He sprang suddenly up as if remembering. "A gentleman dropped it lo the street. I ran after the carriage, bet it went too feet: for me to catch up. Isn't it nice, sis " Very nice, Ben.' , She drew the fur glove abstractedly on her hand and looked at the rich, dark fur. " Why, Ben, what is this?" Her linger had come in contact with something in the little linger of the glove and she drew It out Even by the dim light of the lams) shesaw the my riad sparkling rascets of a diamond ring.

"More than that, Ben. Why?" "Oh! Clare," he sobbed, burying his face in her lap, "a bemired dollar; would be so nice! I Wish It wasn't wrong to keep it." Clara did not answer.

THE PEARL OYSTER. Far down in the deep watrqs, near the Island of Ceylon, to the bright sand, lay a young pearl oyster. It.was surrounded by a large family of brothers and sisters, and was as happy and joyous as an oyster could be. The beams of light mine dancing down upon him from the upper world, just as bright as ins eyes could bear. The dark wares rolled over his head and beat upon the island with a thundering mar, but they never troubled him. Ships some. times scudded across his vision under the storm sails, bat whether wrecked or safe, gave him little ,or no anxiety. If the hungry Usti came, prowling round he nestled deeper In the sand, and was safe.— So Lull of We was be, that, l had he feet, ho doubtless would have danced for joy.

From that day the poor oyster never had a day tree from join. Gradually these pains came, but with Increasing poWer ; but he soon learned to bear' them, and even to drone and speak cheerfully. Ten derly-the poor mother ministered to him and corn 'forted him.

After the treaty of Tilsit, Napoleon occupied the loftiest position In the civilized world. Euthroned amid the splendor of the most magnificent court of Europe, he was virtually master of an empire stretching over the satire face of the whole contin ‘ent, with the exception of Russia and Torkey, and with those two powers he was on a term Of cordial alliance. To himself, as every school buy knows, he reserved the imperial throne of France, comprise Mg the France of the present day, Belgium, Savoy, Piedmont, and at one time the whole of Northern Italy, and part of Germany. On his brothers and sisters ho conferred respect ively the diadems of liollaud, Naple‘Spaln, West phalia, and Tuscany; whilst his step sou Eugene ileauhsrnals, he appointed viceroy of Italy. Yet, ..witu this tantivaned dominion her was - discontented. As long as he had no issue to tnuastalt his name to posterity hd fancied his power 111-seemed. To con solidate his throne, then, and to gratify the ambi tions yearnings of his heart, no formed the. project of an alliance with the imperial family of Austria. And to accomplish this he discarded Josephine— his long-devoted and faithful wife. She retired to Malmalson, a powerless, weeping woman, a cast off favorite,• without political friends or Influence.— And be continued to role, the very emblem of pow er, all Europe at his feet, millionaof men ready to carry out his lightest caprice, and his throne spar. neatly Orme? than Gibralter. Who then would have dreamed of the retribution that, time held to resewve I A few abort yearn more, and Napoleon lay chained to St. Helega'a reek, and Josephine lay sleeping peacefully Unneatit the sod. The rule of the Bona partea was over; the sceptres of France, Belgium, .Holland, Spain, Italy, _and Westphalia had been transferred to hostile haiMs. The only scion of the .treat man fallen, the Duke de limichgadt, el-decant King of Warne, roamed a virtual prisoner in his grandfather's palace at Vienna, bearing in him the melts of a malady to which he was early doomed to tall a victim. The family name of the ambitions Napoleon figured in none of the Courts of Europe. The children of the discarded. Josephine, on the other band, were rising In power and forming alli• antes with the proudest blood in Europe. Her eon Eugene, already allied to the royal house of Bavaria by Ms marriage with Amelia, daughter of the king, was [ivied" with his father-in-law, under the title of Duke of Leuchtenberg. His eldest sea, Augustus., married Donna Maria, Queen of Portugal, in 1835.. His younger son, Prince Mallinillian, married. in ItZt the daughter of the Emperor Nicholas of Russia. The eldest daughter of Eugene Bmnharnala, Jose phine, married Oscar, afterwarda King of Sweden, son of Marshal Bernadotte, the successor to his father in 18th. The second daughter e E d ce, mar ried the Prince of Flobenzollerns H n—the Hohensollerns, It will be remembered, are e reign ing house of &nada; only the Prussian mcmakha are descended from a yaunger eon of Rodolphns IL, whilst the flobenzellenwillechlagenti boast of do s:xi:ding from the eldest eon. The third datighter, Amelia, married Don Pedro, the Emperor of Brasil. And the only surviving son of Hortense„ Louis Na poleon, is seated, more firmly than his uncle ever was, on the imperial throne of Prarma. Thus, at the 2resent day, the decendanta of Jose phine are allied to the thrones of three empires—. France, Russia, and Brazil ; and three kingdoma—. Bavaria, Portugal, and Sweden; without mention ing the connection with the Hohenzollern% and the reminisce:mese? Eugene's viceroyalty in Italy, and Horteneo'a clouded reign in Holland. What better evidence could be adduced of the vanity of even Imperial ambitlen ? Napoleon, the most powerful of mortals, nets his whole heart on the hope of perpetuating his family, and sacrifices everything—prtumpin and popularity--to attain his object; yet, himself and all of hts name In exile, he loaves behind him butane &Mktg eon,. who flickers awhile and then dies out ingloriously, leaving no issue; whilst Josephine, the woman he discarded, sees her children sea rd:in the palaces &hallo doz en kingdoms and empires! And, even when the indirect line of the Napoleons 'ls restored to power, It is reinstated only In the person of one whose de, scent fronaJbeeplaine Is both more direct and nadir:- Ented then front her anabitious and repudiating lord.
