This church is well known as the aristocratic colored church of the District, with cushioned seats, carpeted aisles, gold-lettered pews, mar- ble-topped pulpit stand, handsome chandeliers, a fair organ, and a choir of no litile celebrity. Caucasians hurrying away from the damnable discords of their own church choirs, sometimes pause at the doors of the Fifteenth streetchureh | to hear the ricn swell ard fine harmonies of Grant's choir, or the delicate grace of Boston s yvoluntaries. Itis a well-dressed congregation. Nowhere bave we seen finer bonuets than here dast night. Altogether, the gathering and style of celebration was very different trom that at the contraband camp New Years night, ad- dressed by rude speakers of the «+ Joan de Bap- tis" stripe. With a single exception, last night, where a celered speaker used the scarcely de- tensible figure of representing slavery as dragon scattering /eva threughout the land, the speaking, both in matter and manner, wa quite as good, if not better, than that which usually prevails at “demonstrations” amongst white folks. On the platform were seated John F. Cook, | who presided, T. H. C. Hinton, of New York, st, Rey. Mr. Shelton, ot Cincinnati, J. E. en, of Detroit, Mich. J. Willis Menard, (poet,) W. E. Matthews, of Baltimore, Rev. Mr. Turner, ( white,) late cha cavairy, who is here on business relating tor cruiting colored soldiers. Among the audience we noticed Rey. S P. Hill, Dr. Breed, J.D Harris, (colored,) of the Haytien Bureau of emigration, im uniferm. The uppeurance of a colored man in the room Wearing the gold leaf epaulettes of a Major, was also the occasion vf much applause and grutulation with the assembly. The indi- vidual thus distinguished was Dr.A.T. \ugusta, who received ab Assistant Surgeon’s commis. sion last week from the Secretary of War. He 45 a native of Virginia, and graduated at Trini- ty College, Teronto, Canada. ‘The demonstration was under the manage- mentof Mrs. Kechley, president of the Ladies Contraband Relief Association, S. J. Datcher, William Slade and others ef note amongst the colored people of the district. About 8 o'clock the meeting was called to order by John F. Cook, (son of the well-known colored preacher,) who introduced Rey. Mr. Shelton, (colored,) of Cincinnati, who offered up & prayer, in Which blessings were invoked onthe members ot Congress who passed the decree abolishing slavery.and the President tor the measures he had taken to liberate the siaves of the country. Mr. Thos. H. C. Hinton, (col.,) of New York, awus the firet speaker. On the the isthof April, ix, a law was promulgated making liberty paramount toslavery at the seatof the natienal jurisprudence of the country. President Lin- coin made the law secure by his approval, applause: and that people which had bereto- tore been kept under the iron heel of oppres- sion stood forth clothed in liberty. the right conquered might. [Applause.] Sla- very, which had been maintained by 4 legion of political devils, regardless of the tears and entreativs of mother, wife or children, was par- tially done away with. The people now left the dark picture of the past and beheld a gleam ot liberty. The country was no longer under an incubus, and with a massiye Slew the hy- «ira-headed monster was felled to death. Notice thia dear baby of the country, this political pet ot the South, this cherubim of the F. F. V's, and we cannot do better than to look atitas it has developed itself. In this act Let any one eyen to-day have buta¢rop of | African blood in their veins, and let him or her pass or approach One ot the slaveocrats, and the first word you hear from them is, « Hello nigger!’ Any man or woman, if of African descent, is thus subject continually to A vile vituperation. There is no redress when thus aseaulted, unless you redress yourselves and take the law in your own hands. And the law is simply for the white man and not for the black. Again, if an African seeks accom- modation in a street railroad car, ne is told by the conductor, ** We don’t accommodate nig- gers in this car,” and this is one of the features of slavery as it exists in our midst. If this is the case to-day, what was it before the issue of the Emancipation proclamation. Must we uot then do all to conquer this great prejudice end to destroy this flery dragon that is scatter- ang its devastating lava about our land. colored man loved liberty. It was the gift of the great and good God, and it was intended as the path in which all should walk. If it that th was 4 prospect of a higher deyelop- mentof the colored race, they must endeavor to mert the event by making themselves better. Whose hand was it that had struck the death- blow to slavery but that of Abraham Lincoln. {Applause.} They (the colored people) re- joiced wiih & loud voice and hailed with joy his advent among them. [Applause.} May his path be strewn with peace and prosperity, {applause,] and may the nation look upon lum as the repairer of the land and the restorer ofthe National paths. [Applause.} J. Willis Menard (colored poet) was next in- troduced. One year ago to-day, he said, the Sun of skiyery sunk down into its native hell, iApplause,} and buried in its fall the clash of | devilish chains, (renewed applause,) and the Capital of the Nation ceased to be the great workshop of ittters and chains for the negro. ‘The colored people leaped from the condition | ot brutes to the broad and lasting platform of humanity.

[Tremendons Ap- plause.] (The presence of Dr. Augusta in tull surgeon's uniform called owt this remark.) Could he only see a wajor generai’s epauletice on a black nfan, he would cease to be an emi- grationist. {Laughter and Applause.} The specker concluded by reciting the fol- lowing poem, which he had prepared tor the occasion: One YEAr AGo To-par. Dedicated to the Ema ted Slaves of the Dis- | trict ef Coinmbia. Almighty God! we praise thy name, For having heard us pray: For haying freed us from our chains, One year ago to-day.

Give liberty to millions yet ‘Neath despotism's sway, That they may praise thee as we did, One year ago to-day. O! guide us safely through this Bless Lincoln's gentle swa | And then we'll ever praise t One year ago to-day. {The recital of this poem elicited great ap- | plause.] i | The next speaker_ introduced was J. E. | Green, (colored,) of Michigan, who said that the Amprican Revolution was an important epoch in the world’s history; not only haying its effect on the whites, but upon the blacks. He alluded to the blacks helping to fight f our liberties, and instanced W. U. Will,a black of Boston, who shed the fi blood. Crispus Attux, another dbiack man, fell at the head of a band of citizens in the Boston massacre. Col- | ored blood was spilt'at Bunker Hill, and the bones of the blac! repose there with the whites. In Rhed» Island a regiment of blacks ; was raised, and in Connecticut alarge batialion who fought bravely throughout the war, but | owing to the prejudices of the whites their | deeds have been covered up. | He alludeu to a speech made by Charles | | storm; 1 as j | Pinckney, of South Carolina, in which he ad- | Mitted that during the war of the revolution colored men tought bravely with the whites. The victory at New Orleans was won by blac } as well as whites, who were highly compli- | mented by Jackson. He contended { patriotism was more deeply rooted in the | | blacks than in the whites. They pour out their | | blood fer those who do not regard them as | fellow men. i He then referred to the progress made In lib- | erating slaves in different portions of the earth, | The English siayes liberated by their Irish prs did not rebel ugainst their deli verers. | Ietl, was declared tree. In Columbia every ‘e bearing arms was emancipated July 19, , and provisions were made for the eman- cipation of the remainder, amounting to 250,040. | In Mexico, September 1529, instant and | unconditional treedom was given every slave. At the Cape of Good Hope, 30,4 Hottentots | were freed in Isv3. In all these places without any unhappy results. The slaves in the British { West Indies, amounting to =60,090, were libe- | rated: andin IS18slavery throughout the British | dominions was abolished, by which 12,000,000 | j in the East Indies were libera Georgia, 426,696 in Mississippi, 40: Carolina, 150,652 in Texas, which amounts to 2,093,140; and in Louisiana, excepting New Orleans, 1; in North Carolina, excepting Beaufort, $31,081; Tennessee, excepting loyal portlor 775; Virginia, excepting West Vir- i 7; making « total of 3.456,121 who ed free by the proclamation. Russia had emancipated 7,000,000 slavea, and in our country rxtend from one ocean to another, with 3,000,000 square miles, heretofore there was not a place in whichatugitive could be safe William E. Mathews, introduced. He said it was a custoin old as antiquity for men to come together to celebrate | greatevents. The Jews celebrated the Pass- over; England the brithday of her Qlueen. All the great powers of the earth, including Hayti | und Liberia, (applause,) haye a day peculiarly their own. ‘the white Americans celebrate the Fourth of July. Butitis an unhappy factthat the colored people of the United States had no day to celebrate. Thank God, another and a better day has at last dawned, (applause,) and this evening the colored people met under cir- cumstances never before known. Wilson and | Lovejoy (applause,) would be handed down to | posterity with blessings. [Applanse.] { The speaker hoped the 16th day of April | wouldeyer bea day of rejoicing in this Dis- | trict. [Applause.}] Let the rejoicing swell the tide until all in the United States meet in one | grand celebration; (applause,) and when the | colored man shall stand on one grand platform of universal right. [Applause.] He liked these anniversaries. They inspired them with a manhcod they did not feel on other occasions. [Applause.} The colored people should celebrate the birth- | days of their great men—the birthday of Han- | nibal, who crossed the Alps and compelled the Romans to cringe at his teet, [applause;] of Toussant Ouverture, (applause, } who worked snecessfully the greater than mathematical problem that they who would he tree mast first strike the blow. [Applanse.j He (?Ouver- ture) had turned Hayti trom a hell of slavery toa paradise of freedom, {applause;)and Amer- ica had been forced to recognize her national- ity, and to-day we havea black man [applause] representing er here. He would like also to celebra the birthday of Benj. Bannecker, the negro astronomer, who firs: gave an alma- nac to Maryland, Virginia and the District. | [Applause.}| Who were the early fathers of religion? Who put the light to the torch of christianity, which has continued to burn | brightly, but St. Cyprian, Augustine and others | of their race? He would like to see their mem- ories celebrated. [Applause.] He could name A great many more, both of ancient and modern ; days, but so long as history dors its duty the names of these men will never be forgotten. Let us, then, believe that this is the beginning of abetter time for the race. In conclusion, this speaker also recited a poem of his own com- position appropriate to the occasion. Other speakers followed, Francis Taverns (colored), Dr. Breed, Judge Day, and others, but for whose remarks we haye not space to- 298 & 2 (colored,) was then | he affair concluded with some musical ex- | ercises in the basement of the church. “Vive la America’’ and several pieces, including the «John Brown’s Song,” were sung during the | | evening by Misscs Margaret Brown, M. Cook- ley, L. Starr, and F Fisher, and Messrs. T.S. on and W. F. Landie, with much effect. ee TRIAL ov Mary Cyrus vor THE Murper O¥ HER INFANT.—She is Found Not Guilty.—At- ter our report closed yesterday, District Attor- ney Carrington opened in the above case, con- | tending that the offence with which the pris- | oner Was charged wus much greater than ordi- | nary murder. He expected to prove that the prisoner in January last was enciente, and was delivered of a child, which was afterwards | foundin a privy, wrapped in a manile belong- ing toher. That an cilicer, on pinning her as | to her guilt, contessed it to him by oifering to pay him if he let her off. Mr. Wharton briefly stated the case for the detence. He did not think that the District At- torney would be able to prove all that was stated. The first witness called was Alice Cyrus, sitter of the prisoner, who testified that s lived in the house with her last Januar: that during the month she went to her bed, stuting that she had a violent cold.
