We have read the speeches at the great ova tion at the Academy of Music with some in terest; and SVO are happy to applaud tho spirit that originated and controlled it. Wo do notby this mean to say that we know the personal mo tive at the bottom of it. Nor do we desire to be understood as sympathizing with the Bour bon spirit of 'MT. BAILIE PEYTON'S speech, who talked as if he thought he could make a Union party by reviving hostilities and preju dices long ago extinguished ; nor yet that we approve of the outburst of Mr. MAyx.s.an, of Tennessee, who, possibly because he had re ceived the votes of Col. FtottExon and other Administration members of the House for Speaker of that body, supposed he might in dulge himself in a very foolish threat that the Union might break up in a certain contingen cy. Mr. PEYTON is evidently of the class who think that c 4 a Union party" is to be made by attacking the two' great parties of the country; and Mr. 3fAYNARD is of that other set, who, born in the North, and resident in the South, sometimes think that tho only way to make themselves popular is to outbid the fire-eaters themselves in intimidations against the Union. With neither of these expressions can we have any sympathy or co-operation. But the evi dent devotion TO THE UNION OP THE STATES TUAT INSPIRED the masses of this meeting we heartily sanction and-cordially greet. In this sense we hail the speech of the venerable Joux J. CR*NDEN, of Kentucky. He spoke at the ovation referred to like a patriot and a gentleman. Ho never descended to little and low flings against any great party, and ho has lived long enough to dare to say that the idea of dissolving this Union was an almost treasonable impossibility. Ho looked to a Union party as against the two great parties North and South, like a patriot, treating both with consideration and respect, and he took great care, while asserting his own opinions, never to attack the motives of others. And, in good truth, he could have done nothing else; for had he not sustained CLAY in his great final triumph on the Compromise mea- sures 1 and did he not come forward for Dora- LAS in Illinois when the latter was struggling against a combined opposition ? Sueh a man can never be anything but a conservative, Union•loving statesman. ' We are glad, therefore, to see that one of the old-fashioned states Men of the day is still left to us. We are glad that he has consented to visit Philadelphia, and to speak sound, fearless sensa to our people. We need more of such men. In this hour of travail we need those who can talk for the country, ir respective of themsetrev. The life; of one real patriot is an inappreciable blessing to a free people. It is a great providence to such a people to feel that they have among them a man who will not lie, and is not afraid to die, except so far as his death may harm or dislo cate his country. When WELLINGTON died, all England felt that they had lost a sou who bad fought and bled, only that his country might believe him when he spoke for that country. Hr;CIiCITTENDEN is probably the last of his school. He has not come up to all our ex pectations in the Senate. He ought to have resisted in a great speech the revival of the secession spirit in the South. Ho ought to haves backed BRECKINIUDOE in his first demon - - straiten in favor of real Popular Sovereignty, ' before the latter dropped down into the loose and open lap of the Administration. But we are glad to thank him for what he has done. Re has done it bravely, and he has done it well., Will he repeat it in the Senate of the United States Lord Macaulay.

SPANGLER'S YSAR 231X/E, or Finnino.—Mr. A. IL Spangler, of this city, bee published an illus trated Year Book of the Farm and Garden, which may be briefly characterized es a good idea well patented. Tlie4price (twenty-five cents) puts it within every one's reach. The subjects upon which it treats are the Farm, implements of cul ture, rural architecture, the esculent garden, wil der' requisites, ornamental gardening, fruit cul ture, ingots injurionsto 'our crops, the honey bee, heatand light for the farm and the dairy. The illustrations are well drawn and neatly engraved. "Ls 8111 Au at WALNGT•STREET rIIZATRE.—Dark, mysterious, yet grand and gorgeous, this drama wends through the canals of Venice, pausing now in the shadow of those palaces that *till frown in solitary and decayed grandeur in her streets, re vealing now the dread and fatal secrets of the Connell of Ten, and that subterrawan power that gave Venice her greatness in the past, and makes her yet live like some chained undying monster in the present. The hate that never through centuries has slum bered, and that. lies still recorded on her palace walls; passion, wild and deep as her seas ; valor, such jut no enemy could overcome; love, pure and tender, sash as patrician maiden felt—all aro in termingled in this dramatic poem, keeping the minds and hearts of the audience suspended on all the words and actions et the drama, from the first scene to the last. Miss Baron Stoops! has chosen with the taste and judgment of an artist this play (which is admirably translated); she has not made herself the bright, particular star, but has felt the great creation of Oreeeto, and made hint tower above all others. Mr. Wallach did not sur prise no, for he has accustomed us to talent and originality in his conceptions, but he has added one great picture to the annals of art, and won additional admiration from all who sajg him. Ills scenes with Labia; when she in gay and brilliant, were so wily, yet se : courteous ; then his great scene, the struggle between the last affection that links the old man with earth, and the hate that unites him with hell, was as magnificent a piece of stating, true to the exaggerated sentiments of that age, and masterly. Miss Heron, who looked like one of the beauties Titian painted, and for which Venice was renowned, diiplayed most versatile. talent. Her- ease of Manner, her fascinating and coquettish manner biding beneath the deepest feelings of woman's nature, si were well displayed and held the audi ence spell-bound. During the first acts. perhaps, the petition and rank of Ineeldes was scarcely suffi ciently defined, but as the plot works on she stands forth a grand, poetic, truthful, passionate woman, whose life was all love, and who for that love dies and forgives. Mies Heron Stoepol's cos tomes.were so gorgeous as to become actual artistic studies, and the cream-like veils of point de venh6 seemed, indeed, to he heir-looms of the Patient and the Moroaini. Mrs. Cowell was the gentle and graceful young patrician to the life. Mr. Shewoll was gaud and animated, though, perhaps, a little over-anxious, and, there fore, a degree too violent. Be looks heroic lovers admirably. Now for, the mese ens scene. There has not yet been a piece, at the Walnut, or, indeed, in the city, always eicepting the last scene in Mar guerite, so splendidly, carefully, and correctly put on the stage. The last scene, copal ally the azure sky, tinged by moonlight, was an artietio triumph. The artists were enthuslastieally received, being called before the curtain several times.

The Free Colored Population of the A disposition is manifested in a number of the Southern States to compel their free co lored population to assume the badge of ser vitude or expel them from their present i homes. Several alitieholding States have already adopted laws to accomplish this pur pose. The law of Arkansas, which recently went into operation, drove nearly all her free negroes to the North. Propositions to pro duce a similar state of things in Tennessee and Missouri are now, or lately have been, pending before the Legislatures of those States, and have excited considerable feeling. In Virginia and Maryland the project has also some advo- Cates, and will perhaps bo earnestly pressed at no distant day. In preparing the compendium of the census of 1850, Mr. DE Bow devoted special pains to the publication of statistical information in re gard to the numbers and condition of the free negroes. It appears that the free colored po pulation of the United States in 1850 amounted to 434,495, of whom 275,400 were black, or of unmixed or African de scent, and 159,095 mulattoes, of mixed African and other blood. In Arkansas, where the laws against the slave colored population have already gone into opera tion, their number was comparatively small, being, in 1850; but 608. In Missouri, the total number was 2,618; and in Tennessee, 6,422. In the region, immediately south of Pennsyl vania the number of free negroes is very large, being, in Virginia, 54,332; in Maryland, 71,- 723; in the District of Columbia, 10,059, and in Delaware, 18,073. Among the non-slave- holding States, Pennsylvania has the largest tree colored population. It reached, in 1850, 53,626. New York contained 49,069. In some of the States the free negroes form a large per tentage of the whole population. Thus, in the District of Cohunbia, in 1850, 19.46 per cent. of the whole population was free colored; in Delaware, 19.75 per cent.; in Maryland, 12.82 per cent .; in Virginia, 3.32 per cent.; and in Pennsylvania 2.32 per cent. In consequence of the decline of the emancipation movement in the Southern States the increase of the free colored popu lation, from 1840 to 1850, was not near so great as in former years ; and in several States, viz : Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, New Hampshire, New York, and Vermont, there was a positive decrease of several per cent. in the number of this population. The per centage of decrease in the Southwestern States was 19.62 per cent., while, from 1830 to 1840, they had increased at the rate of 48,31 per cent. If any such legislation as is now under dis cussion in Tennessee and Missouri should be enforced in Virginia and Maryland, the question involved would become one of vital importance, not only to the people of those States, but to the people of Pennsylvania. The Middle States appear to be the natural refuge. ground of the free negrocs. In New Eng land, notwithstanding the strong anti-slavery fbeling which exists there, the ratio of In crease of the free colored population, from 1840 to 1850, was but 1.71 per cent., while in the Middle States, the increase was 11.19 per cent. If the people of Maryland and Vir ginia are persuaded to endorse legislation similar to that of Arkansas, and thus compel the exodus of their free colored population, Pennsylvania would be overrun with hordes of free negroes, and, however strong may he her feelings of humanity, such a .. state of things would be produced as would create an intense feeling throughout our Commonwealth, and per haps lead, in turn, to such legislation as has al ready been under consideration in coins of the non-slaveholdiug States, prohibiting any fur. ther immigration of free colored persons into our State. In this age of the world laws to compel any portion of the population of a State, however inferior they maybe to the white race, to aban don the homes where they were born and bred, under penalty of being sold into slavery, must necessarily be regarded as harsh and arbitrary by the. great mass of mankind, and we are, therefore, not surprised that some of the first men of the South have sternly opposed them. They are particularly unjust, in . view of the past history of the free colored population of the South,. who possess their freedom, in many instances, on account of meritorious acts of themselves or their ancestors. For many years slaves, ani mated by a desire to secure their freedom, and yet impressed - with a profound respect for the vested rights of their maAtera, have, by their extra labors, purchased their freedom with their bard earnings.. In other cases their free hr_tuda or extraordi nary fidelity, by careful watching at the bed sides of invalid masters, or it has been granted as a mark of regard for laudable acts which their masters' eyes alone could perceive, and their masters' hearts alone could properly appreciate. If the true history of the various processes by which the free colored population of the South have obtained their freedom could be written, what a remark able record it would present! The slave holders boast, and no doubt justly, of repeated instances in which, front various circuit]. stances arising out of the relation of master and slave, a high degree of mutual regard, and even of affection, has been created, and it has been, in many cases, through the highest and noblest manifestation of feelings of this character that the freedom of free colored people of the South was originally secured. Their liberty is, therefore, the representative of the highest virtues that have been called into exercise by the African race, and of the noblest promptings which have animated the breasts of the slaveholders of the, present and past generations. It is, therefore, not singu lar that when legislatures propose, by sweep ing enactments, to destroy all present and pro spective benefit, from a long and peculiar train of circumstances, of which a lively recollection must still be cherished in the memory of the free negroes, under penalty of banishment, some of the best men of the South should earnestly and energetically protest against such a measure. While the movement is confined to the States in which the free co lored population is but small, though the injustice of the principle upon which It is founded will be glaring, its practical opera tion will cause comparatively little positive inconvenience and consternation ; but if at tempts are made to enforce it in Delaware, Maryland, or Virginia, it would probably arouse a greater degree of feeling than any legislative demonstration which has ever been made, not only among the free colored popu lation, but among many white citizens of those States familiar with the circumstances by which the present free colored population or their an . .cestors acquired their freedom, and anxious to obtain their labor, and among the people of Pennsylvania. SUNDAY SCHOOL MISSIONARY Mumma. —Last evening there was a Sunday-school missionary meet ing of unusual interest, hold in the First Presby terian Church, Washington Square. This evening a second meeting of the same character will take place, at St. Luke's Church, Spring Garden, above Thirteenth street, (Dr. Rrauth'e,) when addressee are expected to be delivered by Rev. B. W. Chldlaw, of Ohio, Mr. John McCullogh, of Kentucky, and the Rev. Charles 0. Goss, of Nebraska Territory, all Missionaries of the American Sunday-School Union. These meetings are characterized with a class of intelligence from various regions of our country, deeply interesting to all who are in any way con nected with Mei Sunday-school cause. At the meet ing last evening, we were glad to find the time mainly occupied in the communication of Jug/fly/- mut/actg. The meeting at St. Luke's, this even ing, will doubtless be a very largo one. MEncumurs' Fusn.—The annual meeting of this society will take place this afternoon, at four o'clock, at the Board of Trade rooms. It is to be hoped that it will be largely attended by those who sympathize with its humane object. REAL EETATE, STOCKS, PEWS, &C,—This eve ning, at 7 o'clock, nt tho Exchange, stocks, ho.

At the closing hours of a session, Mr. Bateman startled the whole country with tlte proolsmatton of impending and fierce warfare between thp United States and the citizens of Utah, In the hurry of the moment, without time fur investiga- Gen, Congress was forced to take his word, raise new regiment/3 of troops, and authorize bitn to ex pend millions of dollars. Soon a large army, at a vast expense, was rendezvoused in Utah Terri tory. All over the country, beginning with the President, and going down to the penny whistle organs of his Administration, it was ntterwards pompously proclaimed that the Mormon war was ended, which was rather a curious fact, seeing that no engagements had taken place be., tween any belligerents; and, again, looking at all the fads of the ease, the American people can be appealed to whether there is not no much war with the Mormons now as there ever has boon. The Secretary of War substantially says that the army has accomplished nothing. So, then, the President cannot claim his Utah policy as a moms, any more than his greet war with Paraguay—the only result of which was to put money in the pockets of the friends of the Administration who bad coal to sell, and to those who had decayed ships to got rid of. Mr. Buchanan's foreign policy, of all Others the one in which ha would bo supposed to cresol, has disappointed the people of the United States, and, probably, it would not be going too far to say that he has, in 40140 instances, disgraced ue as a nation. The great principle that free ships should make free goods, enunciated originally by President Mon roe, has been conceded by an F,uropean ; Congress, but this principle was enforced by the giant ruled of William L. Marcy, Mr. Pierce's Secretary of State, and is a result which belongs to his cre dit alone. Mr. Buchanan, after all Isis let ters about the Bay Islands, whilst he was our. Minister at the Court of St. James, and, protesting against their going into the posses sion of Great Britain, permits them during his Att mlnietretion to pegs quietly, and without protest, . . under the British flag. Perhaps it may be that he was circumvented In all his Central American poll. cy by his dear friend Fir William (lore Costly, Bart., who, as rumor goes, was muoh:niore in the President's counsels in reference to Morino di. plumy than was any agent of our own t/overn ment, In rofortmeo to Mexico, the President takes up the Idea enunciated by Qeneral Houston in the last Congress, but he does not propose to carry it out in the saw way. Mr. Buchan an took up the Juarez Cievernment—whieli has never been de jure or elf , Jzr/n tha Government of that country—and forced from them vest stipulations, which they could not refine, and which they were too glad to give for the pro mised millions of men and money to help them into power. I have not attempted to take up alf the points of the present Adminiatration, nor to refer elaborately to any ono of them, if it merely to throw out the euggeetion that, on reflec tion, It must be seen that it was exceedingly polite and proper on the part of the Indiana Democracy to wish success to tide Administration, On the rule-of-thine principle, if the Administration, in three years, has had no success, the chancez ore very slim of its having any in the only remaining year of its ezictenco. For two days there hare been suggestions from all sides for an organization of the House. One moment you hear that there has been a combina tion to put Hamilton in the chair, and the next moment that Mr. holder stands the best show of hands, and then that Mr. Maynard will be run again.

Mr. UNDERWOOD, of tleorgia, indulged the bops that by this debate the South had been aroused to their position in the Union and have become fully acquainted with the ends and aims of the enemies of the Republic. It would be neither truthfid, profitable nor just to speak of the Republicans otherwise than as OA) Abolition party, which he regarded as utterly un mindful of their constitutional obligations. Ile gave a brief history of the slavery agitation, speak ing not as a Southern man, but Rd n citizen of the United Steles, for the uonatitutlon depends not only on the preservation of bouthern rights but of the Union. Ile maintained that It was the duty or every citizen to aid in the execution of the lugl liVegdave law,. and that those concerned in the underground railroad operations were land pirates, and ea poor a orew as were ever mustered on board a ship. The itepubliean or Abolition party had faithfully followed the advice of Mr. Seward, who proclaimed the higher law against the lives and interests of the South, In the course of his remarks, he said he wanted a wilted South, for the South demand nothing to which they are not entitled. While they remain divided they are n prey to faction. Thls was not the time to term a new party, when the Repubil cane endanger the Urdu.

Mr. Mud., of Georgia, in explanation, said there were many gentlemen In political life who, though now co-operating with the Republicans, do not cor dially aympathlzo with them. A Ulan party was proposed, based on principles of attachment to the I iovernmont, and the enforcement of all lan,. Would it bo a national misfortuno to make such a division of the Republican party ? Mr. UNDSItI\Oun wished to know what evidence the gontlemen from Georgia had that any portion of the Republicans would join the new party Mr. Him, replied that a portion of the men who were Fleeted en the " People's , ' ticket had shown their nationality by voting for Mr. Gil. mor Ile hoped this class of men would undo with the Union party, and separate thclusch es from the Republicans. Mr. Umunnwoon responded to this by saying that they showed they were sectional by voting first for Mr. Grow, and thou fur Mr. Sherman, a number of times. lie would tell his colleague that at no titno or place, or under any circumstances, would he trust the rights of his constituents in the hands or Thaddeus Stevens, neither would he go into puiiti. eat association with Mr. 1111.1, wished to know whether his concave would spurn affiliation with John Cochrane on the Buffalo platform Mr. LINDE R oun replied that Mr. Cochrane (who was absent) could speak for himself.

Mr. 11[1.1., in further explanation, said the new party was predicated on the good some of the American people., Mr. UNDERWOOD contended that the Southern were as patriotic lie the Pennsylvania members. Why, then, are not the former as good as the lat ter lie eulogized the Republican party, and eon,- merited upon the conduct of the Southern Oppmi. tion regarding their votes for Speaker lie said no reason had been given why those twenty-three members did not vote for the Detnocratie nominee. Mr. LannangE, of Wisconsin, who, with others, participated in the incidental debate, asked Mr whether the latter entertained proscriptive principles against foreign-born citizens, or on ac count of certain religious opinions.

Several of the members await an oppsr tunitv to offer prepositions, of a practical character, for the purpose. Among them is Mr. Sickles, whose resolutiou provides that the delouse now pro ceed to the election of a Speaker viva yore: and if, ppon the first call of the roll, no one shall hat e a majority, a quorum being present, then from thole listing the highest number (not exceeding three) the Mouse will proceed to make a choice by a second vote; ',ld if neither have a majority, then from the two highest on the list the House will proceed to a choice for Speaker. That if. upon the third vote, the said two persons shall receive an equal number, the House will continue to vote for one urjthe other of :bemuse two persons until one of Them Shall receives majority; and that pending the election, and until a choice be made, there shall be no debate. -The most claimed for this proposition is that it Is according to the constitutional mode for electing a President by the House. to the event of the fail ure of the people to do en, and by which the Se nate chooses a Vice President in the same eontiti geney.
