In response to published call a vast ‘throng assembled the African church on yesterday at noon, to consider he stat» of the co-ntry and the duties of the pre hour.

Fervent prayer was offered by Rev. Dr. Hoge, the speeches which followed we shall attempt only nopsical sketches. MR. HUNTER’S SPEECH. Mr. Honrer, on taking the chair, explained, in a some length, tho object and purpose for which the ffaceting had been convened. The most momentous issues address our attention that over engayed the solicitude of ay people. Our form of government, our social yatem | and cenit, the Protection 1 pel T y, arc all involved, and are al take Got y ech i grant us the wisdom to concoive and the mergy our situation Yequires! Woe are not re- ible (said Mr. Hunter) for the war which has raged w four years and for the blood which has ben shed. Our skirts are clear. We have contended only for the tht of self-government. This ought to have been as ear to our enemies as to us, for it is an American princi- ple, and by education and tradition they had been ad- onished to reapect it. They ought to have united with in cherishing and maintaining it; but instead of that iBhoy have chosen to declare war upon it and upon us. re had beep, said Mr. Hunter, no such war as that hich had been waged Kgs us, except those of Wal- nstein and Attila and the Thirty Years’ war. The fury nd barbarity with which it been prosecuted worthy of the unhallowed objects which it contemplated. Mr. Hunter proceeded to notice he legislation of the United States government in relation to the people of the Confederate States. The Jaws, emancipation, constitutional amend- it, &c., were passed in review. If anything more said Mr. Hunter, to show the full animosity jwhich is exhibited towards us it is found in their refusal o enter into negotiations with (omer with our Con- foderate or State govergment. They negotiate with the canest Indian tribe; Dit with a population numbering ween seven and ten millions of people they have no rms—will enter into no agreement. Suppose wo were b as they say we are, no great civil war was ever ed without negotiations. The British government the colonists to be reb-ls, yet in 1778 they sent com- oners hither authorized to confer and treat with any overnment or with individuals, and to arrange for truce, nistice or peace. Strong governments have al- Ways esteemed ord | it the part of duty and of @isdom, after vindicating their wer, to extend Eboral terms to those who had been in armed opposition, ler to reconcile them to their sway and make them | org subjects. The President of the United States nothing of this sort; he did nothing and of nothing to soothe the reluctance or itigate the severities of submission. It is impos- lo that he could have supposed peace attainable his terms with such an armed tore? as the Confederates ve in the field. He required that we should confess rselves rebels, and as such responsible for the blood has been ‘shed, to submit without conditions to by which our property is declared contiscated and ur lives forfeited. He prot indved, that he would ow leniency in tho exercise of the pardoning power; but Id a prope, accustomed to be free, cons:nt to hold their property, their security at the will of one , aud mot under the guarantee of law? (Voices— ‘Never! Never!) In tho covernment to which they were thus required to submit unconditionally it was not nised that they should even bave aveice. It was inctly left uncerta‘n whether they should be allowed Q@ny roprosentation. President Lincoln had told our Oommissioners—had told him, Mr. Hunter—that shouid ‘wo olect representatives ond send them to the Wash- ton Cr le (President Lincoln) would be in vor of receiving them, but he was only one iy and whether or not they would be received uncerta'n, Such was the inducement held out fo us—such the proposed basis of pacification. Mr. Hunter then proceeded to notice some of the further @onsequences of submission or surrender to the Wash- Angton government. More than three millions of slaves, worth twelve to fifteen hundred millions of dollars, ‘Would at once bo turned loose as idlers and vagabonds Spon ourcommunity, It was not n to explain he evils of svgh a Population, nor would it be allowed to us to or restra.n them 60 asto make them ful or correct their viciousness.

W. v, Esq., er fouse gates of Virginia, was next introduced to the audience, 4nd offered the following resolutions :— Whereas, while the existing war between the United States and the Confederate States has been and still is & war of conquest on the part of the former, it has been waged by the latter in defence of life, liberty and pro- por, and rg socure the right of self-government for the People; ani Whereas, the President of the United States has decharca that there is no g.vernment or authority, either St or Confedzrate, within the confid with which he can make any t-rm:, and that there can be no peace until the Confederate States shall lay down their arms and sibmit to the authority of the government of the United States, and accept tho laws of the same, some of which threaten our People with all that is degrading in subjugation ‘and all that is cruel in conquest; now, fore, be it Resolved, That the events which have occurred durin the progress of the war have but confirmed our original determ.nation to strike for our independence, and that, with the blessing of God, we will never lay down our arms until it shall have been won, Resolved, That as we believe our resources to be suf- ficient for’ the purpose we do not doubt that wo shall conduct the war successfully, and to that issue, and we hereby invoke the people, in the name of tho'holiest of all causes, to spare neither their blood nor their treasure in its maintenance and suppoit. Resolved, That we tender our thanks to our soldiers in the fleld for their noble efforts in behalf of the country, its rights and its liberties, and take this occasion to as- sure theia that no efforts of ours shall be spared to assist thein in maintaining the great cause to which we horeby devote ourselves—our all. The reading of the resolutions was followed by loud applause, . MR. SHEFFLEY’S SPEROH. Mr. SuxFFnty commenced his remarks‘by modestly na- cribing to the office ho hel the fact of his being invited toaddress tho inveting. It was, indeed, me:t, he said, for one who in his daily duty sits in that sam’ old arm chair in which the presid ng officers of the colonial as- semblies formerly sat, to be here to advocate the same principles which’ were then the objects of regard, and which constitute the glory of our fathers, We are enact- ing enow the history of the past. ‘The same principles of right, liberty and self-goveriment whi h our fathers vin- dicated have fallen’ to our lot also to. maintain, If we should fal, let the mementoes which con- neet us with the past be forgot. Let the chair in which Edmund Pendleton once sat and th» other rel ¢ of ancient glorious days become a funeral pyre to liberty, rather than be carried away a trophy to grace a Yankeo holiday. Mz. Shetliey proceeded at some length to speak of the part which Virginia had taken in endeavoring to prevent disunion and the vnanimity with which she had entored into tho rebellion, and the valor and the pertinacity which she had exhibited in the contost, ‘The news from Hampton Roads, Mr. &. said, had roused the community as by the el-ctric shock. As oon us it was heard every man yowed a’resh his resolve to conquer, and to support the cause of his country with renewed zeal. (Applause.) The fires of 1861 are burning as brightly a8 ever, and they are burning up, uot the croakers, but éroakinz? not the-do bters, but doubt. ing. ‘The reéconstructionisis are all gone; the mon who had forgotten that there was something botter than peace are cured now.

(Renewed Langhter.) ‘To offect this some were for commissioners to Washington, some for separate State action, some for a conv. ation of ‘all the States, and some for action by the Hovso of Representatives (asl Mr hier.)

P, Benjamin, Secretary of State, was the third epeaker, He congratulated the large assemblage on the change of sentiment among the people, and apparent in the meeting, in the sudden revuis'‘on from the despon- dency of a few days ago to the high resolve, holy deter- mination and patriotic emulation ‘of this period. Hope and confidence were renewed in the hearis and minds of mon; what is the causo of it? Have any great military succtsses been anounced ? No. Iv is the knowledge and consciousness that has come home to all, that is folt in the core of all hearts, that we must conquer in this fight ovedic. Thank God, wo all know it now, that tho path of duty is plncod before us clear, straight and plain, ‘and all know that wo must tread ft or perish, Our terms are independence. With | that one word on our treaty scroll, wo say to Lincoln, “Pct what else you please, we will sign tho deod.”” Mr. Beujamin, at this point of his remarks, entered into a Teital of’ the circumstances that led to the sending by President Davis of commissioners with tho terms and instructions under whch they were sent, ‘The speaker next touched upon the necessity of supporting the gov: rn- ment and reinforcing the army, War was a game that could not be played witho.t men, and men we mus. have, He (he speaker) was h re to-day to tell some very un- wholesome trutl He would be blamed and abused for them pro ly, but he could not help that. When our soldiers th the trenches aro sending tp earnest appeals for help will you withhold that — aid, whethor that aid be white or black? (Great cheering.) Mr. Benjamin submitted some statis. tical fuete, showing the fighting clement available between the two sections, In $69 the Confederate States, exclusive of Tennessee and Kentucky, had with- in her boundaries ono millon sixty thousand ing men between the ages of eighteen and for years. Against this formidable force the encmy havo arrayed three millions of men at various periods since 1861. There are in the South six hundred and eivhty thousand black nien of fighting age, and capable of being made fighting men, Jet ua iay fo every negry who wanis t» ons em, h and they will be’ foond fighting agaiust us instead of for us As yet but one side is told them, The Yaukees can beut us from the beginning to the end of the year at making bargains. Let us stop the negro from going over to the encmy by saying: if ‘ou go over to the Yankees you’ will get your Freedom, but you will per'sh off the earth, for you cannot live in that cold climate. Fight for your masters and you shall have your frecdom without incurring the other danger. Let us prom se the negro in good ia th that ir he will fight {or us, he shall have his freedom. (Voice— “Lov's try it”) Yee, let's try it. He, the speaker, bad never lived in any but a slave country, and like most of his audience, doubtless, had his black matama nurse, bet he would willingly give up all for the attainment of independence, hat State will Iead off im sending the black man to the aid of General Lee? — (Cheers.) —_Virvin! who gave birth to secession, and led off in the first cannon shot of the revo- lution. uth Carolina, and one after another tho South- ern States wheeled into line, Virginia held ba:k, for hor love for the Union was as strong and warm and affection- ate as the love of a mother for her child. People began to ask what of Virginia? Then came a telegram saying that Virginia was going to abandon the South; that she was lukewarm, reluctant and holding back. (Voice— “Who held her back") But soon another telegram in- formed us that Virginia was with us, and, like South Carolina, we are looking to her to iead in the new measure of war policy, which 'g inevitable, and come it ‘When shall it be done?

This oniy alternative is prevented. Either we must fight the Yan- kee with our negroes, or they will take and hold them as shield, fighting vs with thelr emancipation tions in force. Ann:t if there be such a place as hell uj earth then it would be illustrated by our condition. This struggle over and our opie oy accomplished, our slaves freed, and we slaves. ‘hat the Yankees propose to do by the amendment to the constitution of the United States is to free the negroes if they conquer us, and if they fail to conquer us to let thom remain as they are. In conclusion, Mr. Benjamin paid a compliment to tho Virginia ladies for their patriotism and devotion to the cause, and closed with an eloquent apostrophe to peace. JOHN A. GILMER’S SPEECH. Hon. Jonn A. Game, member of the House of Repre- —_ from North Carolina, next addressed the meetin, ‘There had existed, he said, various opinions among us aa to the mode of conducting the war, the institution of Peace negotiations and the like All theso difterences now passed away. Meg | We have now before us a single alternative, either to submit unconditionally to our enemies or to ute the war. Mr. G. invited his audience to consider with him some of the material consequences of degradation and submission, As a first item he mentioned the loss of our national debt. All the notes, bonds and certificates of debt which had gone ut to the people and are held by them as property would be wholly lost. In the next place, three millions of slaves, worth five hundred dollars Aplece, would be lost. In the next place, our lands would be confiscated. In addition to this immense destruction of our property we should have our shares, at least, of the enormous Yankee debt to pay, Such {s one picture. On the other hand, while the cost of resistance cannot be accurately determined before hand, it at least presents the promise of saving @ vast portion of our property. jnestion of more dollars and conts, Mr. G. said our advantage is An resistance, Let us, he continued, take as our guide the example of our father ‘We shall not go astray if we follow them. They stood up bravely for their rights; they stood their ground like men; and if they fell was “back to the field and feet to the foe.” Let us follow their virtuous and heroic example. If we do we have every reason to expect a like success. (Applause. Mr. Gilmer, continning, exhorted the oe figh like men. ‘Let us, said fo, put aside all bickerings, all diesensions, and unite as one man and with one heart, sink or swith, live or dic.

The interview took place on the 12th of January last, This is probably the first official report of the details of the conversation which has been telegraphed from the Washington War Depart- ment for publicity here, and was first read by Mr. Beocher last evening. Mr. Beecher took his text from Psalms Ix.,31 and ad- vocated the rights of the common people to self-govern- ment, following it by this prescription for the colored people of the South:—‘Make them-American citizens,” under the following details :— 1. Give them (the negroes) land in feo simple, with ample protection in the shape of wise, self-protecting economy. 2. Provide for them all those sources of improvement which we so golicitously secure for our white popula- tion. 3. Open up for them a right to use their powers and ekill in honest competit on in all trades and professions, with all classes, they to stand or fall by their own capa- city—to stand the ordeal. Give to them the right of every born croature to take part in determining the laws, the magistrates and the public policy under which he and his children were to live. In short, said Mr. Beecher, I demand that the broad and radical democratic doctrine of the natural rights of men shall be applied to all men, without regard to rave, color or condition, I demand faith in our national principles, and courage to trust them in practice. The speaker con- tinued to advocate the education of the masses of the people, and of thé colored race as well, in eloquent terms, and insisted that the slaves were entitled to the right of suffrage as a right and asa boon earned and de served of the republic for ther singular good conduet during the war, for their love and care for our sold ers and for their heroic military services and fidelity to the Union and nation. Mr. Beecher concluded by remarking that people might say that,if permitted to yote,the nesro may also hold office, and asked why not, if people want him to. Ifathousind men choose to sond Douglass to Con. gress, will you take away from them their right to do so? red to mniscezenation, and thought the raves should not intermingle; but, if they did, it should be by ba sid), earnest marriages, and not under tho romiscnous intercourse prevailing in the rebel States. He would bave one law that @ man may mary = biack woman if he wishes to, and another tuat aman shall never be compelled to do any such thing. close of the discours> he read the followin; interview with the colored m nisters above alluded to:— by court martial is a mistake, Gen. Spinola is no longer under trial, the court having concluded its investigation of his case, and tho general is now awaiting tho action in tho matter of the Department of War, General Sweeny was before a court of inquiry for some dificultios arising during Sherman’s operations in the vicinity of Atianta betwoen hisself and Major General Dodgé, at the time his corps commander. Tho Genoral is now awaiting orders in New York or some other Northern city. Since his partial recovery from his wound received at Gottysburg, General Sickles has been most of the tims on government service. During the past summer he mado a tour through those portions of the Statos in rebellion within the lines of the national army, for the purposo of roporting upon the tomper and condition of the inhabi- tants. Tho beginning of tho present year he was again ordered on special servico, and sailed January 13, on tho steamsiiip Costa Rica, for Aspinwall, Tho nature of his mission has not been divillged, but no doubt {t has a bear- ing upon our relations with some of the South Amprican governments. As regards tho officers wounded, General Asboth is still suffering from a dang rous casualty rece ved in his oxpedition to Marianna, Fla, Barlow ix in Europe, bearing with him a painful evidence of his gallantry. R. ©. Tylor still shows an unbealed momento of Coal Harbor.

The freedom of amation is taking us out from under the yoke of and placing us Where we can reap the fruit of our own labor and take care of ourselves and assist the government in maintaining our freedom, Q St»te in what mannor you think you can take care of yourselves, and bow can you best assist the govern- ment jn maintaining your freedom? A. The way we can best take care of ourselves is to ha e land and turn in and till it by our labor—that ts, by the labor of the women and children and old men, and we can soon maintain ourselves and have something to spare. And to assist the government the young men shouid eni st in the service of the government and serve in such manner as they should be wanted. The rebels told us that they piled them up and made batteries of them, and gold them to Cuba; but we don't believe that We want to bo placed on land’ until we aro able to buy it and make it our own. Q. State in what manner you would rather live; whe- ther scattered among the whites or in colonies by your- selves, A. I would prefer to live by ourselves, for there is a prejcdice against ve in the South that will take years to et over; but I do not know that I can answer for my Grethren’ Mr. Lynch says he thinks they should not be separated, but live together. All the other Len ae an sent, being questioned one by one, answer that they agree with brother Frazier. @ Do you think that there is intelligence enough among the slaves of the South to maintain themselves under the government of the United States. A. I think there is sufficient intelligence among us to #0. Q@ State what is the feeling of the black population of the South towards ihe poveenmann of the United States; what is tho understanding in respect to the present war, it# causes and object, and the disposition to aid cither side? State fully your views, ‘A. I think you will find there are thousands that aro willing to make any sacrifice t assist the government of the United States, while there are also many that are not willing to take up arma. I donot suppose thero are a dozen men opposed tothe government. I untlerstand, as to the war, that the South is the aggressor. President Lincoln was elected President by a majority of the United States, which guaranteed him the right of holding the office and exercising that right over the whole United States, The South, without knowing what ho would do, rebelled, It is + opinion that not a man in this city could be to help the rebels one inch, for that would be suicide, There wero two black men that left with the rebels because they had taken an active part with the rebels, and thought something might befall them if they stayed behind; but there is not an- other man. If the prayers that have up for the i not get through, Union army Could be read out you them these two weeks. Q. State whether the sentiments yee bone np boca only of the colored people in the city, or do they extend to the colored population th hout the country, and what are your means of knowing the sentiments of those living In the country? think the sentiments are the same among the of the State; my opinion is formed by personal in course of my ministry, and also from the thousands who followed tho Union arty, loaving their homes and undergoing suiforings. 1 t) id not think there would be so many.

A large number have gone as soldiers to Port Royall to be drilled aud put in the service, and I think there are thousands of the young men that will enlist. There ig something about them, perhaps, that te wrong. They have suffered so long from the rebels that they want te shoulder the musket; others want to go into the quarters taster or the commissary service. Do you understand the mode of enlistment of colored persons in the rebel States by State agents undes the act of Congress? In answer tho speaker replied that its operation was te leave one white man at home for every colored map token into the army, and that the army was not im creased thereby. Q. State what in your opinion is the best way to cnliat colored men as soldiers. A. I think that all compulsory enlistments should be put astop to. The ministers would talk to them and the roung mon would enlist. It is my opinion that it woul@ far better for the State agents to stay at home, and the enlistments to bo made for the United States un direction of General Sherman. Ia the absence of General Sherman the following quem ‘a was aoked:— a . State what is the feeling of the colored people in re gut eueslane if A. We looked upon General Sherman, to hie arrival, as a man sp.cially set apart by Providence to ag complish this work, and we unanimously felt tnoxpres sible gratitude to him, looking vpom him as a man that should be honored tor the faithful periormance of hie duty. Some of us d upon hinw imunediately upom his arrival, and it is probablo he did not moet the Secretary with more courtesy than he met us. Hip conduct ard deportment towards us cAaracierived him asafriend and a gentleman. We have confide co im General Sherman, and think that what concerus us could not be in better hands. This is our opinion now, frum the short ucquaintance and interest we have had. Mz. Lyneh states that, with his limited acquaintance with Genoral Sherman, be is unwilling to express an opinion.
