This eociety celebrated its anniversary at the Taber- nace, at three P.M, yesterday. ‘The assemblage was | respectable, a large proportion of | very large and vei them being ladies. There wore but few negroes present. John Van Buren occupied a seat in the back ground, during a portion of the time, and George Copway, the Ojibewsy chicf, was very conspicuous in the forv-ground. | The exercises commenced. by the reading of the ninety- fourth Psalm :— ©, Lord God, to whom vengeance belong 0, God, to whom vengeance belongeth, shew thyself. 2 Lift up thyself, thou judge of the earth; render a re- ward to the proud, % Lord. how long shall the wicked, how long shall the wicked triumph ? 4 How long shall they utter and ape all the workers of iniquity boast themsc 5 They break in pieces thy people, O, Lord, and afflict thine heritage. 5 slay the widow and the stranger, and murder lens.

We know that judgment and truth are the habitatinact of throne.and knowing that thy cause will ultimately prevail, we are glad. We mourn that so many are saifer.ny from oppression, not only in this bur ther ; but we see behind thy kind providence a We rest assured that ail things shall work ose who love the Lord. And now that we ssctbled to celebrate the anniversary of this in- weask thy blessing to rest upon us. While we and hard things? a ¢ Lerd shall not rd it, &e., e. neither shall are endeavoring to spread the truths of the gospel of the | Son of God—while we are preaching the truths of uni- versal brotherhood, we would mourn that so many mil- lions in this land are still heid in oppression. We mourn . there are so many whose minds are so degraded a+ to be but little over the brute; and that there are millions who enjoy not the privileges of fzeedom. We pray thee to hasten the time when we shall rejoice that there sul! be no more occasion to enlighten man on these subject when all thy people shall love thee—when_ thy minis shail herald forth thy glory—when God shall be ho nored; and we will Triune God, world without end. Amen. Mr. Lewis Tarvan, the Secretary of the Soci then read au abstract of the annual report—the readi of which, he said, would occupy but afew minutes. The report contained a review of the slavery question for the last year, and referred particularly tu the “odious” | Fugitive Slave bill, the Compromise measures of last Congress, the Union meetings, merchants who sell their princtples with their goods, and the sermons of the clergymen who spoke from the putpit. in favor of obedience to the law and the constitution, ‘The report conteaded that the Fugitive Slave bill is as unconstitutional as it is infamous, and it expressed the hope that it would be repealed bef he political death of those who were instrumental in its passage had come to pass.

(Laughter ) | | Another reason that stavery has not been extinguished is, that the whole power of the church has not been ar- | Tayed against it.

In relation to the argument that the Bible justifies slavery, he said that book expressly (orbid the: Hebrews to make staves of their brethren. The distine- tion between slavery among the Jews and’ the Gentiles, he said, was not tenable, He cenciuded that slavery Was « violation of nature, and the fundamental princi. ples of morality and religicn. After a few more remarks he concinded, and the meeting adjourned. The Soclety for the Relief of Destitute: Children of Seamen. This society held their fifth anniversary meeting yes. | terday, at Tripler Hall, when the attendance was very numerous, consisting principally of Ladies. The children who are now the objects of the society's Protection, presented a most gratifying spectacle. There were about thirty boys, and an equal number of girls, exhibiting all the appearances of being carefully tended, in every respect. | The proceedings commenced with an anniversary hymn, sung by the childecn, followed by an appropriato prayer, by the Rev, Dr, Pricites. | Some exercises and examinations then took place. in | the course of which Mr. McKrxx, the Superintendent of Schools, examined the scholars. who numbered, male and female, about sixty, in geography, arithmetic, and other subjects, including the holy Scriptures, in all of which branches of knowledge they exhibited « laudable pro- ciency Mr. Witsam J.

Wint is the attitude of Christianity towards the colored race, North and South? Christ, the head of the church, recognized no distinetions among men, except one, He first directed his attention to the poor, the lost and the bewildered, It is therefore for the ministers of the gospel to go down to the poor, and elevate, raise, | and save them. This is Christianity. Now, has this spirit of Christianity becn exerted on behalf of the slave? Let us look and see. ‘The rights of three millions of aon in the South are actuatly taken away from them, by aa institution whicl recognizes man as 4 chattel—as an ani. | mal + ef furmitare, of the * makes chastity almost iupossible—it | br , and is attended by other evils.
