Mr. Edmonsion called for the reading of the names of those who h:d taken the oath. ‘The Chair called over the names of some forty or more; when Mr. Edmonston expressed himself satisSed; and added that the oath should have been admit istered to all the boys and girls in the schools. He moved to refer the bill to the committee on claims Mr. Wilson moved to lay it on the table. Mr. Byington inquired es to the duties of magis- ‘es t.

Mr. Byington said that the members had all taken the oath, and could not eee what objection there could be to requiring the commissioners to take the same oath. Mr. Mobun did not believe the objection was raised because the members were not loyn!, but because they thought that by the e of the tesolution they would be transcending theit were. wc Calan stated that there were several oaths which were regarded as oaths of allegiance, amd suggested that the words ‘‘in the form prescribed by the late act of Congters’’ be inserted.

Samvg dealings with the cbildren of Ham@&nd their (u- ture prospects,"’ was the topic of a lecture deliv- ered last Le wry in Israel (colored) churcn, by Rev. Samuel Chase, a colored divine of Balti- more. The speaker went back to the earl!eat ages, quoted largely from Bible bistoty, aia inaln- tained that God made of one flesh all the nations Of the earth. But nations, for crimes committed, CHaer.—* God » ‘ have been degraded, and fallen from the high es- tate wherein the Creator had placed them; as in the case of the Jews, who were oe untila few years age. ak pee arg that it was the providence of God that brought the negro mere. and the colored race has n benefited thereby. The colered race here have been educa- ted like the Amerfean family; bave imbibed thelr political princtpies, but do not dare to utter them; hare Imbibed the same religious Principles, ana them they do dare utter; and if the religion of the black man is wild enthusiasm, then so is the‘ of those who teugbt him ‘Ths speaker argaed that the negro had the sam® natural faculties as the whites, and quoted exam- ples to show that the vie, unadulterated African may become educated and ted. The black mau, beyond doubt, has the same natural quali- tles from Mason’s to Dixon’s line, and from t: t to Sabine. He argued that the isiature of Maryland be- lieved th the equality of natural intelli ence, or they never would bave desired to get the blacks out of the couatry by spending $10,000 a year for colonization. We must elevate the négro character, and that must be done by education. The pulpit is the highest position we can attain, and we must blame our white bretbren for not having a more educated ministry. The Methodist Episcopat Church (white) had been particularly backward in ex! ing education among the colored. They told us that if the Lord called us to Preach, he would put words in otr mouths. and we were totd to look only to Heaven and get knowledge, while the white preachers were looking all fe time in tne book. The speaker did not “tee the point”? that an uneducated negro could draw in- spiration direct ftom Heaven, while educated white men get It frem the books. Mr Chase urged the necessity of an educated ministry for the colored people. “I am,” said he, “‘a black man, and I want to see the blacks edu- cated. 1 love al! men, but I love the black man best. and will advance his interests first and all the time. Ifany¢olored man won't endorse this, the sooner he makes peace with God and dies, the better for him and his people” The negro could and would rise, if ptoperly educated, and they bed as muth right todo soas the whites. The #feaker said it would cheer his heart as much as that of the white man to see bis son pleading at the bar, or hia daughter taking a seat to play on the forty pieny ! In conclusion, his audience were urged to lib- eraily educate and sustain their ministers, as the surest mode of bringing the colored nation to a poattion of equality with the whites. It wes announced that Dr. Rock, an eminent colored clergyman, would deliver a lecture in the Fifteenth st. Presbyterian church, on Thursday night next.
