TUESDAY MORNING, MASCH 26, 1867. ,~~ THIS PEABODY DINNER. Mr. GEOBQE PEABODY on Friday last ?ave a din? ner at the Fifth Avenue Hotel, New York, to Gone ral and Mrs. GBANT, and tho Trustees of the South? ern Educational Fund. Seventy-three persons were present. Among thom many of the most distinguished men of New York. Mr. ROBEBT C. WTNTHBOP, the President of tho Board of Trustees, mtdo tho opening speech, as follows : MB. PEABODY, LADIES AND GENTLEMEN : I trust -1 shall be pardoned for claiming your attention for a eingle moment. Tho hour is at hand when this distinguished company. is to separate, and when the brilliant occasion which we have so much en joved will exist only in thoso grateful remembrances of the past whieh'oan never be effaced from our hearts. It is, I am a vare, and was intended to be, a purely social occasion, where anything of formal specch-niaking would be quite out of place. But as the chairman of the Board of Trustees, to whom, in company with our illustrious associate, General Grant, this banquet has been given, a duty has been imposed on me which I must not omit to discharge. I hold in my hand a brief series of resolutions r.+ich were unanimously adopted by the Trustees of thc Peabody Educational Fund at the close of their proceedings a few hours ago. They were moved by the Hon. "Wm. Aiken, of South Carolina, sec? onded by the Hon. Wm. A. Graham, of North Carolina, and, after eloquent and impressive re? marks by Bishop Mcllvaine, of Ohio, and by the Hon. William C. Rives, of Virginia, every member of the Board rose in his place in attestation of their adoption. And let me say in passing, that it is not among the least welcome circumstances of this occasion that our noble host, by the magic of his munificence, more powerful than that of any Midas of old, has brought to? gether around a common board Virginia and New York, North Carolina and Ohio, South Carolina and Massachusetts, Maryland and Penn sylvama, in the persons of so many of their distinguished sons, once more to con? sult together on subjects relating to the high? est interests of the whole American people, and once more, to interchange those assurances of mutual regard and respect which are the best and only pledges of permanent and perpetual union. If Mr. Peabody had accomplished no other object but this he would have entitled himsolf to the. heartfelt homage of every lover of his country; These resolutions 1 have been instructed to com? municate to you, sir, at tho close of this banquet this evening. And what opportunity could present itself BO fit for the communication of such resolu , tiona adopted by such a board, under such circum? stances, as that which I find here and now, in pres? ence of these troops of friends, whom yon havo gathered around you ? I am sure I shall havo the concurrence and sympathy of every one who hears me, both m tho resolutions themselves and in thc few words with which I shall venture to accompany them. But let me hasten to read, the following resolutions, as they came from the band, and I may say from the heart, of my valued friend, Governor Aiken: Resolved, That we tender to our distinguished ' and noble friend, Mr. Peabody, our thanks for his munificent hospitality td ns dering our sittings, while organizing our board, both in Washington and New York. Besotted, That we consider our appointments as - trustees of this grand charity as a very high honor, and one. which we acknowledge most cordially. . Resolved That our friend being about to leave - his native land for England, we hope that a kind Providence will take him- nhd?t His guidance and . protection, and return him once more to us. Wo trust he will then bo able to see the fruits of tho . work of his great charity sod remarkable wisdom. ?Resolved, That the chairman communicate the foregoing resolutions to Mr. Peabody after the . banquet of this evening. And now. my friends, continued the speaker, I . will attempt no eulogy of Mr. Peabody. Distant, fax distant be the day when his eulogy shall be pro . nounced as it hereafter will be. I feel, too, that bis deeds of munificence are far above the reach-'of any praises whioh it is in my power to utter. Landing, as he did, hore at New York,, after a long '- ~ absence m England, where ho had already perform? ed acta of charity without & precedent in the an? nals bf the world, and which gave a new lustre to the American name wherever that name is known; ? landing here, I say, on the 1st day of May last, his visit to his native country has been one contint**? May-day of benevolence arid beneficence. TW^Vhas ; been no winter in his bounty. TheJ,nionn8 and snows of New Tfogland which havo raged' around him with more than their won* -d severity, have not boon able to repress or ch?i-have stimulated, ' rather-the genial current* of his souL His path? way through our ?and has been ? perfect Milky Way, leaving a radiance on the historio page as en? during as that of the one above us. And this last, bent, largest, noblest, crowning gift for aiding the wor?. of education in the, desolated South has, ?J-above all others', touched and thrilled every heart in the land; and there ia. at least one of his trus? tees-I think loan speak pf thom all-who regards , his association with that- gif t the highest honor of his life. It was once said, on some occasion, by my ?lust?oufl friend, the, late Daniel Webster, in that loose and impressive language in which he excelled almost all other men, that if an inquiry, were - made as to what America baa ever contributed to the world, it was enough to say that she had contributed the character of George Washington. And we of this day and generation may now .answer to that in . quiry, that she has not only contributed the character of. George Washington* but also the example of George Peabody. And, let me add, ' that if some American Thackeray should here? after epring np to compose a series of lectures : or of essays on tho American Georges, ho will J be able to trace in them clements of true nobility, of real' royalty, such as have rarely adorned the .Uves, of those who have, wielded the scep? tre of earthly sovereignty in any land or age. But I .bog pardon- of Mr. Peabody : for such personalities, i must not say more; ' I could not say fess. 'Let me only assure him, ' in conclusion^ that everything has gone on most ,. happily and! most harmoniously in the proceed , rings of our board, and that measures have been - adopted which will soon be communicated to tho public, and which, as we all heh eve, will secure . the entire success of his nobie design.. Nor is the day distant, we trust, when thousands and thou . sand? of young children of every class of the pop? ulation in the Southern and Southwestern States ' will have substantial cause to bless his name as - their greatest benefactor'. God grant that he may live long to witness the fruits of bis beneficence ; to visit the States which his bounty will have help ? ed to -restore, we hope, to more than their former prosperity and happiness, and to be hailed by t them, as he ia bvus1 here to-night, as the great ?hfl?nthropist of his age. ! Ladies and gentlemen, ask yon to unite wi*h the trustees in drinking the health of our loved and honored friend, Mr. Pea? body. \(A^pIa?so.> . ' . -', ! HB. PEABODY'S BEPLY. ~ ? Mr. PEABODY rest ?nd said : LADIES AND GENTLEMEN :-I feel most deeply grateful to the trustees for the very kind resolu? tions they have presented me, to Mr. Winthrop for - \ the complimentary manner in which he has pro? posed mv health, and to yon all I give my warmest . thanks, for the enthusiastic reception yon have : given to my name. I havo at times been placed in *. very , honorable positions, but in no instance did I ever feel more highly honorable than at this tim? ' by the presence around me, not only of the highest ? officers of our. army and navy-deservedly re ' nownod in both hemispheres-but by some of the ? most distinguished men of our nation, both North and South, whose -happy union and pleasant in ' tei-course' I trust is an omen of the brighter day -chich I hope is soon to dawn np JU i our beloved country. (Applause.) I cannot refrain from expressing my satisfaction at '. the harmonious action of the gentlemen who ? 'ive.done me the honor to act as my trustees, and i.c the happy auspices under which they have com? menced their labors, which they have great conti dence, will be crowned by success. Although I feol that this occasion should not be one of making speeches, one or two sentiments before we leave 1 the table. I w?l give :-"Our Country, our Whole ? Country, its Chief Magistrate, its Congress, its Army and' Navy, and the Commanders of them both, who ar? with us here this evening." Here the applause was very warm and enthusi : astiCv and, after the band had played one or two . national airs, Mi*. Peabody continued, expressing . the hope that her Majesty Queen Victoria would long live to rule over the country in which, under Prov? idence, he and others had prospered. He gave as a ooncluding toast, "The Country in which I have long lived and prospered, and its honored and be? loved Queen." Mr. Winthrop then read a poetical address in honor of Mr. Peabody, which was most favorably ? received. It was written by Madame Botta. - German Emigration and the Southern States. . A Brooklyn correspondent comments on tho necessity of directing German immigration toward the South as being the best means of bringing k about .a reconstruction of the States lately in re? bellion. He says: Your remarks upon German emigration suggest something practical in relation to the Southern States. It is well known by all who have observed ti*e progress, of this country that where Gormans nave settled there have most prospered agriculture and manufactures, that they have shown them? selves to be an industrious, hard working pooplo, attending to their own business and looking only to their own improvement and the development of the resources of the country immediately sur ronnding them. They aro our most steady and entepruflng pioneors, and whenever intel?Kcnt, steady labor is to be employed, of all foreigners tiley are foremost. Hence, tho Southorn States, being m some respects lut little better than unde? veloped Territories, they aro the people for hs set ?Sf. 3&??Ie by ,wh0*c industry, well directed, those ?tates may become rivals if hot superiors of the great West-the plan, in brief, which I suggest is, let Northern capitalists, one or more, buy up, say ten thousand or fifty thou? sand acres of land m North Carolina, Virginia or any other Southern State, divide this into forms of one hundred, two hundred or moreacres, and sell to these German? emigrants, to such as have not ample means, a credit, with mortgage to be given. The settlement ouco begun would rapidly increase, and tho natural fertility of these lands would be almost marvellous under tho careful cul? ture of the sturdy German. Nearly the whole of Virrinia and North Carolina is well adapted to such settlement. Bi fact there hus been fur many years in North Carolina a largo and thriving set? tlement of Moravians. They show the tact of tho Germans in selecting the best Irjid of tho middle region for their settlement, and many of the wealthy families of the valleys of tho Ya'dkin and Catawba trace back to Germany on one side or the other. Their farms are the ncotr st and best culti? vated, I claim that this system, while being a source of profit to the party or parties operating it, would at the same time be the quickest Mid surest means of accomplishing that much desired end-the recon? struct ?on of the South. It would bc a regenera? tion. All who, dissatisfied with the present or prospective state of affairs, chose to sell at fair rates, might do so; and, if hot disposed to sch, they might be supposed to be contented, or should abide the consequences. The great fault of the South, and one of tho accompaniments of the pecu liar institution, has always been the large bodies of land held by one individuaL I know of parties who own ten thousand and some thirty thousand acres of land. If operated upon rightly they would gladly sell. dgain, the security of the manufacturing inter 3st of this country demands some means Of revi? vifying tho South* and perportuating the supply of cotton. Tho plan which I have suggested is the one. Cotton can be produced profitably by white labor on anv upland and on many of the lowland farms. More cotton will be produced by dividing up the farms than by the old syBtem, because the land will be better cultivated and manured. Then, too, the product of wool might bo vastly increaeed by the importation of Germans into the mountains and uplands of Virginia, North Caroli? na, South Carohna, Georgia, Alabama, Arkansas and Tennessee. The soil ox these mountains, too, is peculiarly adapted to hemp, flax, &c. I have hastily thrown these ideas together rather suggestive: but mv plan, if looked into, will be fodrid the 01 e. * H. E. COLTON. THE JEWS AND THE INSURANCE COMPANIES OP NEW YORK.-Mi*. Alexander Stoddart. the General Agent of the Underwriters' Agency of New York, is making efforts to induce the Insurance Compa? nies to withhold policies from the Jews, on the ground that they are addicted to acts of incendi? arism, in order to secure high insurance policies on tho loss of property destroyed by their own acts. Some of the New York papers have taken up the cudgels for the Jews, *and'are bitter in their de? nunciations of this attempt to traduce and injure this class of our fellow citizens. Wo quote tho following, which appeared in the Tribune on the 18th instant. "We wait the denouement of this ridiculous farce with a good deal of interest, Wo really bad quiet forgotten the Jews and thought that every? body else had. We were not green enough to sup? pose that bigotry and intolerance are dead and buried-wo have living witnesses, every day, that they are as alive as ever. But wo did think they had changed their tactics a little, and were trying their hand on new subjects. The persecution of the Jews is an old story, and we should have been hardly more surprised to hear that people were refused policies for believing in the Copernican theory, or in the circulation of the blood, than we were "to hear of this eminently Billy and unjust ac? tion of the Insurance Companies against the Jews. Wo may safely trust tho laws of trade to bring: these fatuous*gentlemen to their senses, aud as it is absurd to supposo that they can bo reasoned or shamed out of their course, we rely with serene I confidence on the appeal to their pockets, which is I suro to bo made in time. We trust, also, that the Insurance Companies will speedily mend their waj s, and come to a better mind. But, if they will not, then we hope the Jews will carry out their threatened intention and establish a company, which, while it will secure the rights of the mem? bers of their faith, will also rebuke the bigotry of those who lay claim to a higher belief, by permit? ting Christians, as well, to purchase its policies.

Among the Chief points of excellence of the Ohicker? ing Pianos, of which speak the renowned artists io their congratulatory testimonials to the Messrs. Ohickering, are the greatest possible depth, richness and volume of tone, combined with a rare brilliancy, clearness and perfect evenness throughout the entire scale; and, above au, a surprising duration of sound, the pure and sympathetic quality of which never changes under the most delicate of powerful touch.

They aro unrivalled for their singing qualities and fur the harmonious roundness of their tone. There 1B a perfect homogeneity throughout ali the registers. The upper notes are remarkable for a clearness aud purity whlob I do not find in auy other Instrument, while the base is distinguished for power without harshuess, and for a magnUloent sonority. WEHLI. Your Pianos are superior to any I have ever seen In this country or in Europe. I have never hoard a tone so perfect; it yields every expression that is neoded in muslo, and Its quality ls CA[>ablo of change to meet every sentiment. Thia is a rare power, ana is derived from the perfect purity ol its tone, together with its sympathetic, elastic and well balanced touch. POZNANSKI.
