coLcrnsAnc::.' We pullih iii another column to-day a most sensible and Interesting li tter, wi it ten fiota Liberia to the Preside nt and i'oird of Managers tf tlu New Jor;y Coloniza tion Society, by Henry V. Johusou, for mally a'practltioi ec tf the law lu tho Slate of New York! 'Johnson ia a colored man, . and -la, therefore, peculiarly fitted, -to gin information and advice to hi co'ored 1 rth renin the United Stutcr Having hin. elf itrnggled against all the advene c'n cumstancea which muHt ever impede the celored race when they come iu competi- . . n at tion with the Caucasian race, bis eyuip4 thlet and Via feeling are all ith t'icm, and being por teased of more than ordinary iitU'lligence, he U capib.'e 'of instructing them. Ho gives the most glowing descrip tion of the ecu .t y, in a til, climate, and natural scenery, aa wtll ar tlie-abundance of the means of making a livl g. -We wish that his 1 tter could be read by every colored man and womanTon the American - continent, H laments" the fact tLat Lis colored brethren in America are: so much averse to colonisation. " He cannot under stand their stupidity and blindness. We are among those who believe that the African race, as a rnci can never at tain to any high degree of prosperity or happiness in competition!, nit li the Anglo Saxon race of the Unltc-df States, and con sequently we favor, as soon as the Govern ment mny become .ahiu to do it, ample pro vision for the colonization of them, or at least such of them as may become willing: to emigrate. ' From, the description of tin- country given by Johnson, it is one exact ly suited to tho development ol whatever degree of civilization the Afikaii .race is capable. The climate will be congenial to their nntus-e, and they can live without any very great exertions. In such a country, with a government of their own, under the protection of some of the enlightened and Christian powers of Europe and the Uni ted States, they would have an opportunity of working out their destiny, and reachiij that point of civilization, and that eution which die laws of Nature and Nature's God have made them capable of filling. Relief toe Alabama. Gov. Patton, of Alabama, has induced the government at Washington to allow the State to as sume the payment of-the federal land tax, as wc lcaru from the following in a South ern paper: We learn from the Huntsville Indepen dent that Gov. Patton has succeeded in ef fecting the object of his late visit to Wash ington the .assumption bv his State of the federal land tax. Bonds of the State, with Wcnty -one years" to run,, are to be substituted for the tax, which amounts to $528,313. Governor Patton (who was at Huntsville the other day, on his way to his home in Lauderdale county) informed the editor of the Independent that he found President Johnson and Secretary Seward " willing to afford any help demanded by our embarrassed condition." Martial Law. Martial law hire betu proclaimed at Norfolk by Jeneral Terry. The Virginian says : Two companies of infrntry and two Eiccees of artillery, six jiounders, arrived ere on Tuesday night from Old Point. A company of marines also, came from Bal timore yesterday morning, and went tjtl.e navy-yard, aa we are informed.
