The sxibstance of an Address delivered by the Rev

the " American Colonization So itty," held in
th Hall of . the House of Representatives at
) Washington City, ou Monday evning, 21st
.January, 1833.

"Halved, 'Fh&Xtf?e report which hasjust been

thereof be printed, under the direction of the
Moard of Managers, forthe use of the Society."
s In other places, said, Mr. H. ami ther

irafjorwul -duty support, by what may
beVa'led aru ent, the able, the pmver-

liant assembly that now surrounds me, I
fe?l it entirely unnecessary: especiaily,as
I know, that there are those to follow rui
fnm whom the meeting has a right to ex
pect much more than from myself.
There-is however, Mr. President, in
ithe report,"one particular whch my sense
of duty will not permit me to pass ovr
in siltnee. I' is' there stated sir, ai.d t
confess that I heard it with mingled feel-
ino-s of surprise and regret, that this so
ciety h.s still 'to contend with a persever-
nir or J n.i'.rinc- oi)doitiou tr in soujc
ausrteti. Ooposbiod still tb sucli a cause
as this 1 Sir,! had hoped that .that day
had well nigh passed by j and ti.at tne

efforts ni this society, had left no lon
ger doubtful the bene vole;, ce of the scheo.e,
or the practicability of carrying it into full
cfl'ectret his socify fall, sjr ; take
from ui the hope pf ri liet which it holds
out,"ind, like the miserable patient who
hears, from Wit physician that tne last ex
pedient hat, failed, -you leave us nothing
to reflect uinn but the -uiler. gloom of de
spair. The evrl which this r:t 'rro
pluses to reroedv, has alrtaiiy sre.jd -o a
fearful. extent; ami is becomitg more and
mojre ai?.ru;injg every day. That tlas of
thelcbiDtaynity to whom t aftrd-i succour,
though nominally free, can, injact, never
be bo in t hi country. A gloom hangs
over them tii rough which they can never
hone to penetrate,' arid they groan under
a weight of prejudice from which they can
never expect to rise. The consequence
is'i 'that intellecttiaeffortis paraiizeii, and
moral amongst them are prost rated. Find
them where vu mav, whether in Piiila-
delphia,Cinciimati,ltchmond or Charles
ton in a free or ly. alave-hnldingS ate,
tou find them, with very few exceptions,
the same degraded, demoralized race. No
individual effort, no system of legislation,
can in this country redeem them from this
condition, nor raise them to- the level of
4k.. hitp man. nor secure to them the
1 . it a . . . -w- . .
privileges of freemen. It is utterly vain
to expect it. And, sir, to procure for
them what they cannot have here, and
what the history of this, enterprise has
proven, can be secured tothem elsewhere,
is the object contemplated by this asso
ciation ; remembering always, that in pro
portion as we benefit them, w benefit our
selves. Now, sir. Task you, is it not a
mazing that such an enterprise should
meet with opposition from any lover of his
country from any lover of freedom?
Bat, thank Hea'veii, sir, the opposition
i feeble in comparison with the .encour
agement and support which the society
lneetswitb. In almost every State of this
Union, the great body of the people are
awaking to a sense of the vast importance
of this undertakintr. The ablest .states-
men and politicians are espousing and ad-
vocating its interests isfate societies ana
neighborhood societies, designed to' co
operate with this are rapidly multiplying.
The Legislatures of several of the States
hav$ pronounced favorably upon its plans
and its proceedings ; many of them con
tributinglargelv to its pecuniary resources
and, sir, the whole religioui community
of this widely extended republicvhave de
clared it ''worthy their confidence,1 and
have resolved in their solemn assemblies
to give it their support . 4 i-i ,
Take for example, saidMr; jl. thef Me
thoiliit Episcopal Church-rthe Church to
vh-ch I haye the happiness to belong.' -At
her eneral Conference. t,h& highest
assembly of that Church) whicn met in
Phihidelnhia irivfMa? last, a resolution was
adopted, and, I believe unanimously, re
of the people of that communion. Sir, I
know I am correct when I ay, that this
wfwle denotmnation, numbering in the U
nited States; nearly six hundred thousand
(600,000) Communicant, and not much
short of ten thousand Ministers of differ
ent grades, unitedly approve the objects
of this Society All the other leading de
nominations of the country, sir, do the
saoie. In this, we all agree. The pecu
liarities of creed, of sect, and of party,
are here forgotten, or lost, iu the glories
of one common philanthropy. With puch
a general almost unanimous -testimonial
of the approbation of the country, and
with the.blessiais of Almighty God attend
ing its exertions, there can be little room
left to doubt, lhat the American Cnloni
7.?itinn SocieW ;will, continue to rise and
flourish', and taltimately accomplish the
glorious undertaking in whicn it "i3 en
agfd. .
Turn vourtyes, sir, to the Colony it
self, and .the prospect is equally encou

I behold in the Colony of Liberia the

Yes, sir, superstition shall be broken

" The altar and the god shall ink to

come forth ''redeemed, regenerated, and

It is a coirimr p Remark, that the clia
racters of menu; a re, for the most part,
pretty justly appreciatel ; that the d.-ci-si-
ns which are pvvs-'ed upon tiicm, by the
great tribunal of public opinion, are, usu
allv. a safe, stajidard for the formation of
p:ivafe judgment.: This mav be true in
general ; yet t ? m inclined to think, there
are miny exceptions to the rule. A man
may have the reputation of being generous.
Ami why ? Because, iu a few- showy and
popular instant he has been so ; vvhib
his private-life.v; may have been marked
wi?! ad.the bitt jrpess of a mean and par-

see what he is iiere.
I thin V it can npt be pressed too earn
estly upon the young, that character is
not what a person does, or is, once a year,
or- once in half a dozen y-ars, but what he
is and does'habifyaHy. A very generous
man may, from, mistake, or from some
other cause do 'vhat is the excess of little
ness. A very week man, may, from the
pressure of perplexing circumstances,
g-'t so' much 'i ff his guard, as to utter
things unadvised and improper, which he
-would weep tea, s of blood to recall. A ve
ry humble man may be placed, by thei im

it in recollection, that a story somewhat

that the above account is substantially

have read with great satisfaction, as con

" Amongst the speak r.- who have ad
dressed the House on the 'subject of i -e
latin, Mr., Shepard ot North-Carolina
has earned for' himself a reputation of
which his friends 'may 'well be proud.
His, speech in comparison with many,
might be consider.-d brief, but that fault,
if it can be called one, was amply com
pensated by clear lucid argumeut,- at
times he was truly eloquent, breathing
forth sentiments of pure patriotism, clo
thed in language at once simple and clas
sical on the whole, I think the speech of
Mr. Shepard may be ranked, if not the
best, aniongit the -foremost of the very
best delivered this session. The cbizeus
of Philadelphia cannot but feel proud of
the successful effort of Mr S. when they
are informed that he wan educated at the

Ji Brave Wife. The family of Mr.
Diamond have been for some time the only
inhabitants of Calf Lland, situated at the
extremeouteredgeof Boston harbor. Last
week, the father of the family; having been
for some time in a feeble wtate of health,
died. The only persons present oo the
island at the time of this melancholy oc
currence, were the wife of Mr. Diamond
and her family of seven; small children
In this afflicting situation, being destitute
of any other means of send felligeuce
or procuring asitstance from the neigh
boring islands, the wife leaving the corpse
of her husband to the care of her children,
launched a small boat, and though the seal
was quite rough, the wind blowing, und
the raiu falling,1 she effected her -passage
to Gallup' Island, a distance of more
than three m-les, where she was fortunate
enough to find two men, who returned
with her. Such had beeti the energy wjth
which the peculiarity of her situation had
inspired nej, that she actually consumed!
a shorter time in passing from her home
to Gallop's Island, rowing:; cross-handed
all tlie way, than her friendly assistants
did in returning by the same passage.

A letter from a gentleman. residing. neai4
Smifhville, Rninwickcounty,N, Cpiib-
tiihed in the Fayettville Journal, relateslhe
following interesting circumstance-:
" A short timo ago, in the vicinity of
Smithville, k negro man (JoeJ he property
of old Capt. lirown) went to the house off
Mr. Daniel Rennet in his absence with the'
intention of comroittirig an assault. Mrs;
Rennet was in the house, when he entered
and made known his intentions to her.' She
immediately roe, up, when he threw hi
arms round her ;Jshe however by herex?t
ertions, got rid of him for a moment, tvher
he wenttoa iargecrackin the house to see
if any person was approaching. While h&
was in this position, she seizr-d a shotgun
which was loaded with buck shot, and shot?
him dead on the spot -she immr-diately-communicated
to her neighbors what sh'cr
had done. A Coroner's Inquest was held,'
when she appeared before the Jury, arfljt:
swore that she had done the deed and why'
sho did it." .
Grave Senalors.'-s' fa smartness whicjf

the kintl of pleasantries which mv be
met occasionally even in a vemrnble Sen

good nature of such sallies.
Mr. Tyleri in the course of his speed?'
said he was somewhat in the situation.'
of the Sena' or from Maine, who says that 1
he find himself with Strang? bed fellows
and wonders how he became so thick with
therm - It wa3 singular indeed, that the
Senator should support, and he resist tleV
measures of the present President. . He
had himself given the Administration as
liberal a support as it reasonably could
deserve, but could not go quite so far as
as the Senator from Maine in approbation
of its principles and measures. The Se
nator from Tennessee, with whom he had,
recently acted, had gone over to the as
sociation with the Senator from Maine.
There was many years ago existing a co
partnership, under the firm of VJJmes3
Madison, Felix Grundy, John IlolmeS
and the Devil." About two years ago,
the copartners called br a division of pro
fi(s. The Senator frm Tennussee with
drew his name and that of the senior part
ner from the fVm, declaring that they
would have nothing more to do with theysp
rest of the concern, and trusting that Bil
Satanic Majesty would take goodjeare bf'
the other partner. He would like to knowv?' :

Mr. TIolme9 begged the Senator from
Virginia to yield the, floor while be cor
rected a slight erroHwhich the gentleman
had made in his statements relative to
the affairs of the firm The original firm'
wa$ " James Madison, Felix, Grundy,
and 'he Devil.' The Senator from Ten
nessee withdrew and Inserted my name-,
leaving me and his Satanic Majesty to
manage the concerns of the firm. If the
Senator from Virginia .-wishes to know
how the concern stands at present, he
-would inform him that his Sa!anicMa-
J"1
uch. about the same time wi.h the S
vjesty had gone over ,to the Nulliflers; and

Mr. Tyler resumed. He had conclu"
ded that his Satanic Marjesty hail obtain
ed a complete mastery over the whole con
cern ; for he should show that, nothing
but the workings of his spirit could have
pruduced such a bili as this."
