THE PRONUNCIAMENTO or YOUNG AFRICA AGAINST OLD AFRICA, Address to the People of the State of New York, Fsiiow Cit :—His Exoellency, the Gover Bor of our Sti in his recent annual message, is pleased to say of its colored population that, ‘their anomalous position undoubtedly forms one of the mort serious obstacles to the gradual liberation of the slaves. * * * Debarred from all partisipa- tion in public employments, rejected from most of the institutions of learning and religion, governed by laws which they have no share in framing, hav- ing been denied the right of suffrage by a vast popular majority, shut out from social intercourse and condemned toa life of servility and draigery, their condition amongst us is deplorable in the ex- tremo. Any great improvement of their condition, under circumstances so calculated to crush the spirit of manhood, seems morally impossible. “The blighting effects of this inferiority to which they are subjected ig soen in the fact, that while every other clase has rapidly increased, the colored | population of this State has dwindled from 50,02 iw 1840, to 47,937 in 1850. naturally excites apprebensions that the African, like the Indian race, cannot permanently co-exist on the same toil with the whites, and that a sepa- ration is necessary to prevent their ultimate extinc- tion. * * The instincts of nature, too power- ful to be counteracted by the refinem@nts of abstract reasoning, preclaim that the two races must be sooner or later separated.” The Governor fusther recommends a “ liboral appropriation” by the Legislature, to remove this olass to Africa, under the auspices of the Aruerican Colonization Society. Had these animadversions come from the agents of the Amerisan Colonization Sveiety we should have borke them in silence, ior “tis their vocation, and we bave become a customed to give indirect support to an army of adventarers, who gain their Riving by plundering vs of our good name; but when the chief officer of our State, in the fuldiment of the cers tional duty of rendering an account of ite condition to the Legislature, makes these asser- tione, they arsume the prominence of historic truths, and appear before the world and posterity with ap autbority which will win for them the com- mon belief, if they be permitted to pass uncoutra- dicted. We feel and know that theso animadversions Misrepresent our conditions and prospects, and aro unwilling that they shall mould the public opinion in regard to us. And it is out of regard for this yore opinion, fellow-citizens, that we are assem- ied this day, in the hope that, by a respectful presentation of facts and arguments, we may do something to win back for ourselves the good name which the Governor hae so seriously impugned. And, whilst we yield to none of you in our high re- spect for his office, this very respect will not suffer ws silently to permit his exercise of it to be used to our detriment ; for if the representations made by his excellency were true, or but half the truth, we feel within us a love for our native State so deep and fervent that we would, however reluctantly, quit her borders for ever, rather than remain an Sareea to her greatness and her glory. e arenet ‘‘debarred from all participation in public employment.” In proportion to our attain- ments and efiorte to secure the same, we obtain and hold the public employments. Colored men have ever been employed in government vessels; eolored men have always been employed in the public storesin New York, until the tender mercies of a rhs administration dismissed them all, except such as the exigency of the public servize could not wpare. Colored men hold offices in the gift of the people in Essex county, in this State; have refused office in Oneida, and have been nominated, and re- ceived a fair share of votes for the highest offices in the gift of the people of the State; and if they have failed in being elected to such offices, it may, yorhene, be attributed less to their demerits than the peculiar avidity and denial of self with which our white fellow-citizens seek such incumbencies. Jf we are rejected from most of the institutions of religion and learning, it is from influences apart from our complexion, and from without our State. Jn 1837, 1839, and 1843, when colored youth, duly ified, were rejected from equal privileges in the testant Episcopal eet 1 Seminary in this State, solely on account of their complexion, the Bishop of the Diocess gave as the sole reason for such rejection, the fear of a commotion in the Episcopal church, in the Southern States. In 1S40, when a colored :tu cnt, duly quatitied,was presented for admissicn to the College of Physi-ians and Sur- geons in the ci'y of New York, he was denied ad- mission on account of the anticipated opposition of students from the slave States In the autumn of 1851, when a colored student hed bees promised admission into the Medical School in Aibany, be ‘was rejected on account of the opporition of a medi- eal student from tke South In all there instances, the p: ofersors in these seats of learning expressed with profound regret, that their pecuniary dependence upon the Southern stu- dents, was the sole reason for thus making a rejec tion, repeguant to their own feelings, and to local opinions Hence it appears, that Southern young men, arrogating te themeelver the title of gentlemen, who, in infancy, bad drawn nutriment from the breaets of black mothers, the cost of whose ‘bring- ing up—nay, the very clothes, upon whose backs are paid for out of the uarequited toil of black men and women, have cone inte the free State of New | York, and succeeded in closing these ceats of learn- ing to colored men, in order to make capital for perpetual slavery. out of the necessary ignorance of free pereons of color. And so far from our exclusion from these seats of learning, being an argument against the portion of freedom which has been voucheafed to us, it is palpable proof of the chains which tho South has forced upon men of science _ and sanetity in our State On the other hand, with the exception of the bad eminence geld bythe Protestant al Chureh, gs a reepecter of persons, all other denominations in our State either have widened, or gradually are widening their platforms tot Teadth of that hu- manity which the Saviour came to save ‘The Presbyterian church have colored men spproaching their altars, and ministering thereto, have them in their presbyteries and synods. and cordially throw open the deors of the Union ‘l'neological Seminary to properly qualified colored youth. The (atholic ehurch, true to her ancient and not inglorious tra- ditions, holds its members equal, regardiess of_com- plexion—colored clergymen nave ministered its sa- ered rites in the city of New York; her edifices have ne ecasie pewe, and there is no colored Catholic eburch in the United States, nor in the world. The | Beptist church is equally catholic in these respects. The African Methodist Church in our State grew into a separate institution under the influences of slavery; ite continued separation is a matter of ex- treme regret among the whites of the same persua- sion, who have made overtures for a union. We respectfully submit, therefore, that with a single exception, we are not excluded from the Beate of religion. Even in the case excepted, some yeare ago, when the vote was taken, indirectly, in the Jiocesan Convention, some years age, the grow- ing catholicity of the clergymen Lae a majority in favor of the admission of colored ghurches to the Union, and this union was only lost by the mal- influence of # distinguished layman from Albany, who had been deeply engaged, some thirty years before, in an ingeriously contrived slave trade be- tween New York and New Orleans. We learn with extreme sarprise from his Excel- lency, that “we are governed by laws which we have no share in framing.” ‘To our humble appre- bension, it had ever seemed clear, that a gevern- ment of the people was carried on, both in the framing and the executing of the laws, when such people elected representatives, or other officers for those purposes ; and that cach voter framed laws through his representative. If this theory be true, we bave helped frame the laws of New York, ever since the foundation of the State. To an extent as fuil ae any portion, and fuller than a majority of its preeent Lid perce do we claim ‘the grateful me- mories an: 2S petal hopes suggested by the seventy- fifth annual session of the gislature of New York;” for our fathers were among those who roe their breast to British bayonets in defence of thoee who framed the first constitution, at Kings- ton, in 1776. And from that day to the prosent, free colored men have enjoyed the right to vote, on the basis then granted them, in common with all the citizene of the State. ‘The basis of this vote ia ® property qualification, so small in amount that every colored man who chooses may become a voter; four-fifths of the adult colored natives of this State are now entitled to vote under it: and our efforte to remove thie (ualification, have arisen less from the {act that it excludes us from the franchi than from our unwillingness to seo the otherwise glorious escuveheon of our State marred by an un republiean bleimich ence, feliow citizens, nearly to the fulle-t ox tent, during three-c ry, through the perils and through the gloriece of our native tate, have we, side by side, uttered along with you the silent but potent voices which have tramed forthe Empire State her unrivalled syetem of inter nal improvemente, her modern eystem of laws, her gigantic enterprize, and her noble system of com mon education.

Aud in order to relieve the [Executive anx- | iety on this point, we beg te state that, in parts of | Essex, Franklin, Oneida and Madison counties the courtesies ocial life are not proseribed by com- plexional ctions.

In regard to all the other oecupations, we say, because we know, that ehey bind no chains upon our persons nor upon our souls. The earth yields hor increase a3 gladly to the toil of black farmers as of white; and in this, as in other callings named, if we bave won less money, we have at least maintained the same freedom of spirit, which has accraed to our fellow- citizens with fair ekins. The cities of New York, Brooklyn and Wil- liameburg, contain mere than a third of the entire colored population of this State. A hurried in- vestigation, in which many instances have been overlooked, and all the estimates rendered low, shows that colored persons have, invested in busi- nees carried on by themselves— In New York city...

As to the condition of the masses of our popula- tion in these cities, we adduce the respectable au- thority of the ew York Tribune for the statement, that colored beggars are extremely scarce in New York, except euch as come from “the South, ask- ing money wherewith te buy their own muscles, blood and bones.” By the second annual reportof the governors of the Almshouse cf New York, for the year 1850, it appears that there was expended by them during that year— For the poor generally... .... sere $406,652 60 For the colored poor, to wil ‘The Colcred Home..

Nor should it be forgotten, that during the same fourth ofa century, reo we have borne the brunt of competivion, with a | flood of emigrants from the old world; for nearly albeuch emigrants were immediate and direct com- petitore in our callings, having on their side the edds of complexional sympathy and political in- fluence from the moment of their landing upon our shores | May we not be permitted, fellow-citizens, to ex- | press some degree of pride in the fact, that we have | not merely survived but also surmounted all these ; difficulties, with peace, comfort, and growing pros- | Perity; and may we not also be suffered solemnly to ded against the false witness borne against us by the chief magistrate of the State, when, with | these facts at his command, he has pronounced our | condition deplorable in the extreme, and incapable of any improvoment! In the matter of tolls, or canal loans, his Excellency doubtless consulted the | records before announcing their condition to the | Legislature Then, surely, whore the well-being, the rights, and the ‘‘good name” of fifty thousand | of the citizens of the State wore involved, it was but just that he should have been well informed be- | fore publishing such broad and decided views in | regard to them, for if this class was of sufficient im- portance to merit any noticein his annual message, it was also of suffisient importance to have been | spoken of within the limits of the truth, carefally arcertained £ The only fact, in regard to our condition, which his Excellency announces with the authority of ics, is, that we have dwindled from 59,027 in 1840, to 47,937 in 1850; and in the expressed fear “that the African, like the Indian race, cannot per- wanently co-exist on the same soil with the whites, and that a separation is necessary to prevent their ultimate extinction,” the Governor recommends to the Legislature ‘a liberal appropriation” for | the purpote of removing the people of color to Li- | beria. It is nota little remarkable that his Exeol- jency, laboring under a fear lest we should become extinct, has recommended the very means by which that extinction may be moet speedily compa:sed. The removal from bis home, from the graves of his forefathers, is a cause whieh has so dreadfully thinned the ranks of the red man, in his sad and reluctant march towards the setting ofthe sun. And, if we may rely on the assertion of the Govemor that 10,000 colored Americans, in all, have be ent | from the United States to Liberia, this fact, taken in connection with the recent census, which gives Liberia 6,548 colored American residents, in 1851 after & twenty years experience of that diroful climate, it follows that the 50,000 colored peoplo of New York would be reduced to 31,79 within the | next twenty years, should they emigrate to the African coast | Again, the census of 1550 shows that Mont gcmery county, State of New York, has dwindled from 25,818, in 1840, to 31,918, in 1450—a loss of more than eleven per cent. We cannot perceive the (arithr nor the logic, which prevented his | k:xcelien y very urgently recommending to he Legislature an appropriation for the removal | of the inhabitants of Montgomery to whatever parte of the werld any portion of their forefathers May have come trom, in order to prevent an ex- Unction thet reeme twice ns imminent as that of $1 in 1845: which latter has been about the provor- | the colored citizens | lation of the State of New ¥ general enumo- ‘special classifi- cation. For example, the retarns of mortality for the year 1850 range, in the several States, from 1 death to every 47 tol toevery 282 persons. These returns are so contrary to the well known laws of lengeviby that they are entirely uareliable, except for the single State of Massachusetts. The mor- tality set down for the State of New York is 1 death to 69.85 persons, which is, at the very least, | twenty per eent too low. It ie a fair inference that the same census takers who have made so gross an error in this speciality, have also made an one in n con- ation of this view, it may be stated that one of the Marehals, in Williamsburg, made no 86 enumeration of the colored popula:ion, which is not small, in that city. 2d. The influence of climate, intermarriages, and elicit intercourse, in whitening the complexion of the colored population; and the natural desire of those of this class, of fairer hue, to be ranked among white citizens, render the task of classifies. tion on the basis of color, an extremely diflicult and dangerous one; hence numerous ingtanges are known in which fair complexioned colored families have been set down as white. 3d. The movement ef the colored population of the State of New York, since 1790, has been as fol- lows :— Inc p.c Colored pop’ - red pop = “ st 12 Estimated 12 Btated ad ‘The rapid increase up to , arose in part from importations from Africa; the decrease thence to 1pz0, arose from the removal from the State of tome 5,000 slaves, by their owners, who soughs thus to escape loss by the act of emancipation which was passed in Isl6. From 1820 to 1840, the increase of this class was steadily 1 2 per cent per ancum. Tais may be set down as a stoady aad normul increase, for any population in comfortable circomstances, as it differs from the increase of the people of iingland, for the same time only 0.18 por cent, lees than one fifth of one per cent. And unless some disturbing cause occurred, the laws of increase Gx inevitably the colered popula- tion of 1850 at 12 per cent higher than that of 1540. No such disturoing cause has occurred; fecundity has not been arrested ; their morality has gradual- ly lessened; no marked emigration had taken place, up to June, 1850, when the eensus was taken, al- though since the passage of the fugitive slave law in September cf that year, some two thousand of the eelf-emancipated have gone to Canada. The enlightened state ot New York has for a motto * Lxcelsior,” and, therefore, cannot look down towards the acts of Indiana in search of oxam- ple. In New York, while one in fifty-three white adults (including a vast and illiterate emigration) cannot read and write, in Indiana one in seventeen cannet read or write; hence Indiana has but one third of the intelligence of New York, and Indiana, cherishing among her patriotic memories ‘* the inglorious flight even to Saltillo,” may be excused for expressing her dislike to pee with colored skins, by a large popular vote forbidding their immigra- tion. ven ao, had our Governor been disposed to look at the colored man in any other than a malign view, he might have gleaned, from the history of Ohio, that, by this very vote, Indiana has probably bid for a large increase of her colored population. In 1820, Ohio, with a colored population of 4,723, passed her black laws, which were even more étrin- gent than the recent constitution of Indiana against colored immigration. In 1360 we find Obio with a colored population of 24,300 ; and this population of such weight and influence as to have caused tho repeal of the black laws aforesaid. Or, his Excellency might have glanced at our peighboring State, Massachusetts, in which equal franchise, from the foundation of the State, nas resulted in raising colored men to the various trades and professions, including the administration of the laws, and has further caused the abolition of an old law, which forbid the intermarriage of blacks and whites. fe Ia Canada, also, there is civil, social, and politi- cal equality between the white andthe black man, and his Excellency cannot be ignorant that the in- stincts of the black man have carried him thither. Whilst the American Colonization Society, with enormous outlay of some three millions of dollars, has succeeded in Leese! a colony, now numbering some six thousand colored Americans, on the coast of Africa; five times that number, that is to say, thirty thousand colored Americans, have volun- tarily colonized themselves in Canada, and are be come, to the fullest extent, part and parce! of the State. His Icxceliency ig pleaced to proclaim that the “ jnstinets of nature, too powerful to be coanter- acted by the refinements of abditrac: reasoning, proclaim tha* the two races must be, sooner or later, reparated”” A Hibernian pbiloopher hid wcuteners to discover that mental state ia yhich a wan & Meets with friend, Acd for love knocks bim down.”” it it bas been reserved for Governor ce out the new psychol admixture ot the ied States is the res Tho term * colored prevestbat we are no longer, in appe fricars.

Had there been such antipathy, it wouid have wrenched from us all right to vote. The question decided in 1846 wag a political one. We have ever been known as staunch whigs. Hence the demo. cratic party, with a few noble exceptions, voted againet adding to the whig ravks voters who would bave secured the whig preponderance ia the State. About the city of New York, the democrate added to their vote against ue, by representing that our affranchisement would seriously interfere with the employment of the laboring population. And, in the next, the dreadful murders cemwitted by an insane man of color, was made an effective weapon against us. And now, fellow-citizens3, we are done. It is a grave thing for men, in the quict pursuit of their jawful ayocations—men who have neither burdened the State by their improvidence, nor disturbed it by their importunity—for these men to be sud- denly summoned, in the midst of a most inclement season, at a distance from their homes, to show cause why they shall not bo removed, as a com- mon nuisaace, from their native State. Such, in plain words, is the amount of the etate- ments and the recommendation of the (rovernor. We have endeavored to the best of our humble ability, te show that his statements are incorrect, and we earnestly and solemnly protest against the adoption of his recommendation, to appropriate furds for our removal to Africa, or anywhere else. Virst—Hecause the appropriation is unconstitu- tional. The 10th section of the 7th article of the ccnstitution states, that ‘the credit of the State shall not in any manner be given or loaned to, or in aid of any individual association er incorporation.” ‘The American Colonizatien Society is an ‘* aaso- ciation” foreign to the State, and uaknown to its laws. By granting no matter what eum to that so- ciety, the good faith of the State would be pledged to the cruel and monstrous dectrines on which that society ie founded—that a man has no right to live in the land of bis birth. Seooudly-- Because such appropriation is entire, unnecessary. Of the colored population of this State, there are not fifty persons, all told, who de- sire toemigrate to Africa. Even the New York and Liberia Agricultural Association, no longer held together by the cohesive power of eleemosynary plunder, is organized to tend other persons to Africa—other persons having been conjured up for the purpoee of lining the pockets of the members of the association. We need no State appropriation: should it ever oscur that we shail be cailed upon to leave our na- tive state, having means of our own, we shall not burden the public fund in our departure, any moro than we do while remaining at home. In consult- ing the mysteries of Providence, touching such de- perture, and with hie face turned toward the Last, cur worthy chief magistrate has not been vouch- sated the true reading of the auguries: /ntomwit lac um: the road is short to Canada ; from whose fer- tile fields and equal institutions, we might be per+ mitted to witness the prosperity of that State, which, in giving us biith, has entwined in its com- mon weal every fibre of our being ; this would take away half the bitterness of our oxile, and would leave us the privilege, should peril come to her, of bateing the breasts of black men ag a shield to what ever blows might be hurled againet the heart of the iimpire State. ‘Thirdly—We protest against euch appropriation. because the American Colonization Society is gigentic fraud, professing to love, whilat it syst retical enconrapas hate among mankind: ora: ‘mly the chains of the enthralled; professing to give peace whilst itis the last srosgneld for the organised disturbance of the entire Union; profess- ing to evangelize Africa whilst it hurries to its short which has the best reason to hate the christianity which seads them there; with no other merit than that of a cold, crafty, implaca- ble hater of the colored Americans; it pushes its Jesuit head among high and low, a moulder of, and profiter by @ diseased public opinion, it keeps alive an army of agents who live by plundering ua of our Bid Iastly—Wo protest gainet this inti nd lastly— We protest a, t this appropriation, because ‘* we remember them that are fn bonds, as bound with them:” bone of our bone, and flesh of our flesh, may evil betide us when the hope of gain, or the fear of oppression, shall compel or persuade | a to forsake them +o the raylees gloom of perpetual slavery. The Magyar In the Iron City. KOSSUTH’S SPEECH FROM THE BALCONY. Gentlemen—I believe your warm-hearted and elo- ant orator will be best contented with an an3wor jadressed not tohim, but to you, people of ald and of the county of Alleghany. (Cheers.) In crossing the mountsins of Pennsylvania, gentlemen, I found confirmed that Switzer proverb, that “the spirit of freedom likes in the mountains to dwoll.” ‘The weather was chill, but the hearts were warm. (Applause.) And upon the very snow grow up around me flowers of sympathy, benevolent as na- ture itself. (Applause.) Since 1 breathed the air of your great republic, the bounty of Provi- dence has thrown mapy a flower of consola- tion and of hepe in my thorny way. But though bright be the lustre of sympathy which tne stars of your great nation casts over me from nigh and from fer, nover was the sympathy of tho people more decidedly and more universally manifested than in Pennsylvania. (Cheers.) “Citizens of Pittsburg aud Alleghany, with your friondly hands youhave bound the flowers of Pennsylvania in a farang full of blossoms, and, I hope, full of fruit, ike the orange tree. (Cheers.) Sir (turning to Colonel Biack), you have told me that the peculiar character of this people isindustry. Well, whore one finds industry, be sees & a working peoole—and that word “ working people”’ is a noble title on enrth. | am proud to have belonged to it. (Cheers.) Gentlemen, amongst all the testi nials of sympathy, those of working men afe dearest to my heart; because there is not only a touching, high minded fact, but also a true revelation of the power of principles, when we see those who havo no other capi- tal than their time, and no other treasure than the honest hard work of their hands, sacriiice their time, and stop in their work not only, but also sacri ficing a part of what they have earned by their hard, honest labor, for the support of the cause of liberty. Oh, indeed, such a manifestation reveals mankind’s divine origin. It isdear to the heart, and cannot fail to be attended with the blessings of God. Surely, ] have met with such a sympathy here, and [ thank you for it, gentlemen, with the most sincere feelings of a warm heart, ia the name of my poor county: (Cheers.) My country ! That very word brings home to the heart the syrrows of my days and nights, which! had almost forgotten, in looking at your warm and gonerous reception here. Well may my country rejoiee at the honers which the people of America is ploased to bestow upon Hungary’s exiled chief; and God knowg, even one moment’s rejoicing is even now 8 great benefit to poor Hungary. But you are too practical a people not to excuse my country when it looks over to yours with the inquiry beaming from its weeping eyes. After all, what is, what will be, the result of all these domon- strations—all these honors—all these sympathies ? Indeed, I cannot answer it yet, urgent though the necessity may be for it.

A_large meeting assembled at New Orleans on the 14th instant, for the purpose of receiving the German Reformer, Professor Kinkle. Tne Naw Orleans Delta, of the 15th, says ; The largest number of persons which ever crowded together in Banks’s Arcade, assembled last night to hear Professor Kinkel plead in behalf of tho German revolutionary movement. There was not Spare room fora man as lean a3 the Apothecary in “Romeo and Juliet;” galleries, platform, the wide area of the hall, every available nook, all falgreds enthusiasm appeared to prevail amongst the German portion of the as- sembly, and the eons of the fatherland seemed proud of the occasion, and the man wom they had met to honor. The American ig gece ex- hibited the greatest anxiety to hear the learned gentleman, and leaned over the galleries eagorly watching for his arrival. On the platform were placed ‘standard bearers,” through whose minds the grand German air of that name was probably ringing ; and the flags which they bore were covered with different devices, expressing the love of liberty and human emancipation which animated the Germans. After waiting patiently for some time, the as- sembly was gratified by the musie of a band ia the distance, which gradually came nearer and became more distiact, until at last the distinguish- ed stranger entered the hall to the sound of some ofthe grand old Teutonic airs, accompanied by a procession of German patriots, who carried va- riegated lamps, and flags of various kinds. Dr. Kinkel is a fine looking man, of unusually large stature, whom nature had apparently intended for a soldier, but whom study had elevated into the echolar. The expression of his face is mild and noble, and his tall figure is slightly bowed by what Carlyle calls the “scholastic bond.” Wo may a3 well say in advance, that his style of public sp ng is cemarkable for its clearness ratber than for ts warmth or eloquenco. A voice—*‘ Three cheers for Dr. Kinkol ” A burst of spelauue immediately followed this call, when another voice shouted *l'aree cheers for Lop: which was respond:d to in the most enathasiasuie manner. ‘The mecting was organized by appointing Chris- ian Roselas, Esq., President,’ and some forty Vico Presidents, among whom we find the names of macy of the ci nguaned monofthocity. ‘The chairman introduced Dr. Kinkel to the meetiag ina highly complimentary speech, to which the De. responded in English. He also addressed the meetiog in German. We make room fora brief oxtract from his speech, in the course of which he remarked :— Non-interference wasthe law of liberty, and could not be infringed by any honest advocate ef human freedom; and on this very point he hada few remarks to make which were altogether personal to hiaself. Ho had been informed that certain calumnies had been busty circulated with regard to him, in this city and elsewhere; circulated with singular assi- duity, and by what enemies he knew not. It was represented that he and his friends were endeavor- ing to induce America to violate hor policy of non- intervention, by engaging in the [uropean strug- gle, and committing her flag to trans-Atlantic politics. He denied the statement, and branded it movements in Eurepe, and declared thatin the rapidly approaching contest between monarchy and repub! mm, the German States would take the lead. In such a contest, they hoped to have the aid and sympathy of the United States, who would not be ‘able to be indifferent spectators in such an issho. Events were rapidly hastening, which would come pel them to change their policy, and be propagan- dists as well as lovers and suppertere of freedom and republicanism. He was happy to find an or- ganization in this country, on a basis so consistent with what he regarded our duty as republicans and friends of freedom. He trusted that the order which had offered such distinguished courtesies to him, would place itself in full communion qith tho republican party in Europe. It was natural that they should desire first to rid their own cow of all vestiges of Europoan oppression ; but their views would no doubt, extend also to all the repub- lican movements in the Old World. Dr. Kinkel concluded by tendering his gratitude to the delegation forthe attention paid to him, and, asa pledge of their cordial aympathy, bo grag; the right hand of the president and of the several members of tho delegation. After conversing together for some time, the do- legation proceeded to the rotunda below, where it was formed into a line, with Wr. Kinkel in the centre; when the President desired the members to fill their glasses fora bumper to Dr. Kinkel, which was drunk with enthusiasm. The delegation then, after bidding farewell to is it ed of their courtesy, broke up and sepa- Taled. The Ballot Boxes of New York City. Annexed is a copy of Mr. Beokman’s vill, relative to the number of ballot boxes for the city of New York. Ii has not yet been acted upon:-- AN ACT TO REGULATE THE JMBEK OF BALLOT BOXES TO BE UsED AT ELECTIONS IN THE CITY OF NEW YORK The People of the State of New York, represented in Senate and Assembly, do enact as foll,ws:— Section] At elections hereaiter to oe held in tho city of New York, the boxes to be used in re= ceiving the ballots thereat, shall be marked and numbered as follows:— The box to contain the bal« lo:s for State, judicial, city and county oftisers, shall be marked **State, City and Couaty, No. 1; the box to contain the bullots for Ward aad Schook officers and inspector of elections, shall be marked “No, 2;” the box to contain the bailots for mem- bers’ of Assembly, shall be marked * Assembly, No. 3;” the box tocontaia the ballots for Senators, shall be marked ‘Senator, No. 4;” the box to contain the ballots for member of Congress, shall be marked ** Congross, No. 5;” the box to contain the ballots for police and civil justices, shail bo marked ‘Justices, No 6.” and the box to contain the names of eleetors of President and Vice Presi- dent, shall be marked ‘ President, No. 7.” And, at every election hereafter to be held in the said city, such number of boxos, marked as aforesaid, shail be furnished, as may be required for by law, to receive tho ballots to be used at such olection. Section 2. At every election hereafter so be held in said city, the names of all persons, with the do- signation of the oflice, which all the votera of said city are, or may be authorized by law to vote for, at poy clecdons except elections of President or Vice President, shall be upon one ballot, and as acalumuy. Hoe was here as the friend ef non- intervention, not as its enemy. He and his friends believed in the justice of it, in the true sense of the word, and would always support it. (Cheers.) They never entertained the idea of interfering with the affairs of this country. Ame- rica was strong and willing enough to settle her own domestic questions, and no foreigner had a right to force any private views of his own upon her people. (Cheers.) Andlong may she coatinue to retain that strength and will; because, on the safety of American liberty depeaded the advancement of the Iuropean cause. This country was the hepe aad inspiration of Eu rope, and the men interested in the freedom of the latter, would be tho slowest to throw any diffi culties in the way of American progress. On the contrary, they looked with horror oa all attempts to dismember the Union, as such attempts endangered, too, the liberties of their respective countries, and lessened your chances of extending your principles and institutions. (Cheers) But, though the revo- lutionists of Europe disown all idea of meddling with your domestic affairs, in the foreign policy of this country they are, of course, interested, and deeply. They consider that if a people rise for liberty, aud battle against their particular tyrant, it is unfair and unjust for another tyrant to come to his aesistance and crueh that people by his superior power. It appears to them that it is the duty of a Tepublic— not to help that people by arms and mon —not to send fleets and legions to advance their principles—but to stand by and see fair play be- tween the combatants, and not ailow the tyrants to fall too many at a time on the people. (Uheers ) Ard this was tho true doctrine of non intervention. This was not a breach of the principio, but a support of it, for it was simply preventing others from violating ite spirit and meaning.— ‘The fello wing resolutions having been reported to the meeting, were passed unanimously :-- Rescived That the meeting declares it te be a call of duty and how: for every friend of freedom, and more especially for all Germans who have emigrated into this ccuntry. to further by every postible means, and to the beat of their ability, the deliverance of Germany fron the shameful and degrading tyranny of her princes, snd trom their whole gang of depeudents and parasites.

The interview was held in the parlor of the St. Louis Ball Room, where the delegation formed into a circle, and Dr. Kinkel was introduced. Alexander Walker, who had been selected as the speaker of the Order, addressed the Profossor as follows :— Doctor Kinxer—By the designation of the Order of the Lone Star of this State, it devolves upon mo to tender to you their welcome to our city, and their kindly sympathy in the cause in which you are embarked.

Boyd & Hinck- | en's line of Havre packets, diod Jast night, at his residence, South Huntingdon, Long Island. Ho died of a disease of the brain. Captain Hewitt was born in the State of Illinois, and was edusated at West Point, where he graduated. He soon after entered the navy of the United States, as a mid- shipman. He subsequently leit the navy, and engaged in the merchant service, and, in the course oftime, purchased an interest in the packet line, referred to above, and became the efficient and popular commander of the fine packes ship Utica.’ He was a favorite with passengers, and especially 80 with cilizens of France, many distinguished per- sons of that nation having made the passage with him, ameng whom was Joseph Bonaparte, Count de Survelliers. He was said by many person, to bave borne a stpong resemblance, in his features, to Napoles Bonaparte. He was ameng the first to propose and to originate, tho establishment of a line of mail steamships to ran between New York, Havre, and Bremen, and, of which line, the Washington and Hermann wera the pioneers. He was the first commander of tho Washingtov, and made the first voyage in her. Subse quently, some want of harmony among those interested in the Jine, caused him to withdraw, and the proprietorship of the line mostly changed hands; and also varied the route, by dropping Havre as & station, and running alone to Cowes and to Bremen Two additional steamers wero contemplated to run inthe same line, to be called the Franklin and Lafayette. The former was partly built, and then sold to the present direct Havre line, to which tho Humboldt has been since added—both eplendid and successful steamers. Soon after Captain Hewett retired from the Washington, and the sea servico generally, he purchased a handsome farm at Hun- tingdon, Long Island, where he expired, aged be+ tween forty and fifty years, in the prime and vigor of manhood, regrettted by a large circle of friends. We learn that his remains are to be deposited i Greenwood cemetery.
