• A GRAND SCIIBMK FOR THE fOLOR
• EDYtACK. .
In August last, a National Convention of ool*
orcd'peoideV4s! ltwaa
of from moat of the States.
It was called tho "National Emigration Conven
tion,” and ite objects weco to coneider. the po
litical destinies of tts© black race ; and* reborn
mcod a plan of emigration to countries where
they caa enjoy political liberty, and form nations
" freo and independent. 5 ’ r
Thu report of the Committee takes strong
ground in favor of remaining upon this conti
nent, but, not in tho United States. In tho
United States it is admitted that the wbito race
has secured the osoendanoy, and will ever re
nin it; and will never admit the negro race to
political and social " Bat this is not
considered the country most favorable to the do
▼elopement, physically or mentally, of tho col-,,
ored raoe. . ' »•
The Comidftbe then prooeedß to mark ont a
grand sohemo by whioh.the negro race may be
regenerated, and formed into, free, intelligent
and prosperous nations. The West India Islands,
Central Amorica and ail the northern' and mid
dle portions of South America, including the
whole of Brazil, are designated as tbh
desired; and that canto obtained as the seat of
negro ■ civilization and empire. These regions
and islands together are represented as contain
ing twenty four and a.half millions of popula
tion ; bnt one seventh of which, somo three
and a half millions, are whites of pure
European extraction; and the remainder,
nearly twenty-one million, are colored peo
ple of African and Indian origin. This im
mense preponderance of the oolored races in
those regions, itls supposed, will enable them,
with the aid of emigration from vthe United
States, to take possession of all those countries
asd islands, and become the ruling race in the
empires to be formed out of those wide and
fruitful'realms. The committee expresses foil
confidence ftf impracticability of this great un
dertaking; and" that-nothing is wanting to its
success at no distant day but* unanimity of sen
timent and action among theinasscß t>f the col
ored people. Tho climate of thogg,regions is
represented as entirely congenial.to the colored
race, while to, tho European races, it is enerva
ting and destructive ; and*this fact,* added to the
preset immenßO superiority of numbVrs on tl|e
' part of the negroes, is relied on asasaroguaranUo
or the success of the great enterprise ; and that
their race oould forever naaintain the possession
and cootrci of those regions. 1
Other great events, it Is supposed, will follow
in the train of this mighty movement* With
the West lodia Islands and Gentrai and South
America composing free negro nations, slavery
in the United States would, they suppose* soon be
at as end. The facility of escape, the near
neighborhood of friends and aid, it is urged,
would-rapidly dr&ia ofi from theSouiuern States

3Jhe CommUiee presents this plan as the only
mode by which the African race can be regener
ated, and elevated to the rank of equals among
tho people and nations of the earth: and it ip
urged by many arguments. {
On one point the Committee expresses the
.. most positive and immovable determination. Wc .
give it intheir Own language : 1
. Upon (kg American Continent tr * aredaer- :
* « terminal to remain, despite every opposition that j
" ean be urged against ns." j

cause the British provinces wfll soon jtelodg to
the United States. To &ii further acquisitions
by the United Btalcs southward, tho Committee
is utterly opposed. Tho whole tone of Use
Report indicated that these projected empires
to tho south of us would be anything but friends
of our republic. .»
Dr. M. Tl. Dolaney, of Pittsburgh, was the
chairman of Committeo that made this re
port to the lt was, of ooursc,
adopted.
If Doator D. drafted this report it. certainly
does him much credit for learning and ability;
and oannot fail to establißh for hUn.a reputation
for vigor and brilliancy of'imagination never
yet surpassed. It is avast conception of im
possible birth. The Committee teem to haveen
tireiy overlooked the strength of the “ powers
on earth” that would oppose the Africaniza
tion of more than half the Western Hemisphere.
'England, France, j Spain, Holland and Den
mark own large portions of the domains that
are thus to be seized and converted into Afrioan
izedyempires; and where are the armies and na
vies, the arms and monitions of war, with which
thetfs rich possessions are -to be wrested from
the European powers ?And the Sooth Ameri
can republics and the empire of Brasil, have
they no strength to preserve, their existence
.against servile insurrection, and negro inva
sion 1 ' The United States, too, with iu
-of oommeree across Centra! America, its friend
ly relations with the doomed republics of the
South, its intention to. annex Cuba, and a littli
more* will she not bear a part in this grand
trngirnjMnio cmcute t Wo can nsenro our colored
neighbors that Unde Sam, Johnny Bull, John
ny Crappenn, Queen Christina wad- the Dutch j
win all interpose most formidable obstacles
to the success, of this splendid project. No*
thing but-a sudden coup dc main could give.it
any chance of success. And for that there it
no adequate preparation. A few years delay,
and Cuba will be under the Stars and Stripes j
and American railroads and canals will span all
the realms of Central America. . ■ ■ ■. i >
Wo have no motive iu noticing this gorgeous
dream of “ the committee,” except to show its
fallacy, its impracticability, in fact, its absurdi
ty. No sensible man, whatever his color, should
be for a moment deceived by snob impracticable
theories.
On Che African coast already exists a thriving
and prosperous republic. It is tho native home
of. tho African r&co ; and there he can enjoy the
dignity of manhood, the rights of citizepship, and
nil tho advantagos of civilisation and freedom.,
Every colored man in this country will be wet-’
corned thero as a free citizen; and there he con
not only r prosper, and 6eonre his own comfort
and happiness,- but beoome a teaoher and bene
factor of his kindred races; and become on agent
in carrying civilization and ohristianity to a be
nighted continent. That any one will be turnod
aside from, so noble a mission by the delusive
dream of conquest and empire in the Western
Hemisphere is an/absaglHy too monstrous and
. miaohievous to be bftlMjlp Yet “ the Commit
tees ” Report was accepted, and adopted and
endorsed by a “National Convention;” and is
published and sent forth to the world.

The New York papers tell a story which, il’
true, is a good joke on the Know-Nothings. It
is stated that Daniel Oilman, reported tho Know-
Nothing candidate for Governor, is not a native

A Bnffalo paper offers to wngcr $lOO on the cor

Ono of the escaped seamen of the Arotio ship

losi of the Arctic was tho theme, on Sun
day, of nearly every sermon preached in New.

lost friend, oud the scenes injhe various church

Speed Terems Safety—The Couduet of the
Arctic** Crew.
disaster to the Arctic has caused
all newspaperdom to discuss the relative safety
of sailing and steam vessels, and the suggesting
of numberless precautions to avoid future
calamities of the kind. A New York cotempo
rary, whoso opinions aro generally carefolly
weighed, gives as its advice that the steamers
should take the Southern passage wheuever “tho
Northern is likely to be foggy. Tho vogago," it
says, 44 will require more-time, but is a littlede
lay to be considered ns an evil equivalent to a
risk of life?- Let tho passengers bo landed two
days later, so that they be landed in safety.”
"This goiog backwards in the leogth of time
employed on a voyage will never do in the year
of grace, 1851. It may operate well enough
until the terror of some recent calamity is worn
off; bat then, wc venture say, nineteen out of
twonty persons would take the ship that made
the paasage in ten day*, in preference to the one
that made it in twelve, even though the risk was
somewhat greater. Hod the Arctio been fitted
oat with the requisite number of boats, and bad
her crew then behaved themselves as become
men, there need not have been half tho sacrifice
if life. We do not wish to join in the general
hue and cry against “ the dastardly conduct”
of the ill-fated vessel’s crew, lo the present in
stance, they did not, to be enre. act a chivalrous
and self-sacrificing part, but did precisely what
majority of mankind would do under like eir
ouiastanecH.
Thefiicli, in the first place, lay with the agunt
of the Coitin* line, in not furnishing the Arctii
with sniucicut to acoc-mmodate all on
boasifc for, according to Capt. face’s own state
ment, (hero were nearly *4OO souls, while the
boats wero cspr*bl-i of holding but iUUu inoro
than half the number. The crew caw the din
ger first, and knowing that a part would have
*0 perish, acted upon the first law'of nature and
f'*ved themselves—the passengers would have
lone the same had they been sooner aware of
rheir danger and been able to get pofisef-Fioa cf
: be boats. >
Without intending, therefore, to defend all tho
.otions of the Arctic’s crew, we cannot but
hink there is moeh justification fur fAnr con
tact, and very little for the gross neglect of her
irners and agentein not supplying her with %
jraper outfit.
Tbb Rbnewal System of Training tub Gr afs

Th« Veaael that ran into the Arctic*
The French vessel, the Vesta, which was in
collision with the Arctic, was miming, accord
ing to the report of her commander, at the rate
of eight knots, and tho speed of the Arctic is
stated on the same authority at not less than
twelve knots. Immediately after the ooUisioa,
Captain Doohesne noticed, that the bulkhead of
his veeael was not started, aad he proceeded to
lighten his vessel by throwing overboard all the
i-oxgo and luggage which was in the forepart of
the veasel. This elevation, with the firmness of
the bulkhead, contributed much to stop the
heavy rush of water About 150. mattresses,
palliasses, and other effect* of the efew aad pas?

That the Arctic steamed off in the western
direction, the statements heretofore published
concur, and that the captain of the Vesta was

which she subsequently fired, is not nnaoconat*

A Oourageoue Act*
Yesterday morning, about 11 o’clock, a young
mulattoboy, named Edward Tluney, Accidentally
fell from a raft lying in the river a short dis%
tance above the foot of Broadway,' and was car
ried by the current under the bow of aflat boat
or lighter. A Mr. Bartholomew P. Brown stand
ing by, instantly* plunged into the water and
disappearefftrader the boat A large number of
persons were standing on the wharf and boats in
tho immediate vicinity, .and the most intense ox
cltement prevailed as to the fate of both man
and boy.' In a few momenta Mr. Brown re-ap
p cared from under the boat, bearing ip his arms
the child/ and readied the float in safety. One
big about wont up from the crowd,-and in less
than five minutes some thirty or forty dollars
was collected and tendered Mr. Brown, which at
first he refused, but was finally forced to aooept.
The &ot was one of a most daring and courageous
character, and done at the imminent peril of the
life of the brave man who rescued the boy from
a watery grave. Mr. Brown in answer to the
many enquiries propounded him, stated that hr
was a stranger in the oity, having arrived here
from New York city the evening previous. . He
was a woll dressed, gentlemanly looking man,
and in our opinion deserving of a substantial
testimonial of his hcroio conduct. —Cincinnati

41 'The Mean —This resplendent luminary, Ifee
many a youth on tho 4th of July, is now in
(possession of) its first quarter* The evenings
of the post week have been beautifully Illumina
ted by i*s clear, mellow light. The moon re
volves in an fOipticaU orbit about the earth in:29
days, 12b, 44m. and 8 sec., the time whieh
elapses between one new moon and another. It
was supposed by the ancient philosophers that
tho moon was m&do of green cheese. Kepler
and Tyco Bfahe, , however, held to the opinion
that it wae composed of Charlotte Basse, the
dark portions of its earfaoe. being sponge cake,
the light, blanc mange. The modern improve
ments in science aod the use of Lord Boas’s
famoas telescope have demonstrated the absurd
ity of all these speculations, in proving conclu
sively that the moon is mainly composed of the
Ferro-ses-qul-cyaouret of the cyanide of potas
sium. No one, up to the latest dates, from the
Atlantic atatee/has suoceeded in reaching the
moon, tihoald any one do so hereafter, it will
probably be a woman, aa the sex will never
cease making an exertion for that purpose while

Upon the whole, we may consider the moon
an excellent institution among the many that wo
enjoy under a free republican form of govern
ment, and it is a satisfactory thing to reflect
upou, that Mr. Pierce cannot veto it, uo matter
what inclination from principle or habit he may
feel to do it,”

Captain Marty’s expedition to the bead wa~

from which we learn that the Wichita river
take its origin-in a system of high bluffs, on the
the borders of the 81aus Estalado, which at the
head cf Ufc river form a regular eenti-oirelo or
horse shoe 1 , and from whieh are sent out a num
ber of small streams, converging at the distance
of two or three miles from the main river, which
from its source to its mouth ruos through high
bluff banks composed mostly of clay and red
gypsum. It is to the extensive beds of this lat
ter through which the Wiohita Brazos, and Bed
Rivers flow, that their waters, owp their bitter
taste. This gypsum, J>x analysis yields glauber
and epsom salts. The great gypsum field is of
the CQormoos thickness of seven hundred feet,
of tho purest quality, and extends for many hun
dred ailee. This is one of the most rains
Me discoveries of recent date, and must at
no distant day lead to tho settlement of,that
region.
