Washington, Jan. ii3, 1851. j
I alluded in ;:<y last letter to the grand AlVi- j
Cnn Coloni^a(ion Meeting which was hold on
Tuesday night The chief orators were Mr.
Clay and the Rev. Dr. Fuller of Baltimore.?
They mutually exalted each other by a profusion
of flattering compliments; and the Divine
and the Politician ; each in his own vein, work- J
ed admirably to the same end, to aid in billet- j
I ing the Colonization Society, with ail its tram- |
Bpery, on the United States Treasury. Mr. C'lav j
Bulged at length, and with much earnestness, |
r the propriety of Congress taking in hand this |
business of colonizing the free negroes, by supporting
the African line of steamers. But ,1/r.
Fuller went far beyond Mr. Clay, in his pro- |
jects on the Treasury. He proposed and urged
that Congress should make an annual appropriation
to buy up the slaves at the South, in order
to ship them to Africa. This is cool, certainly.
The Southern slaveholder to furnish
money, in the first place, to buy up his owu
slaves, and in the second, to pay for transport
I iog them to Africa. And yet .Mr. Fuller claimed
to be a Southern man, to abhor the schemes
I of the Abolitionists, and to consider the Union
in extreme danger from the agitation of the
slavery queston, at the very moment that he
was opening this fathomless abyss of agitation.
Tnere seems absolutely no limit to the iufatua- I
tiou of so called philanthropy, when it has once
entered the brain of an unhappy mortal.
"The Mutual Insurance Association," as they
c ill the new league between certain members
of Congress, to keep out of ollice, State juid
Federal, all who will not pledge themselves to
j stand by the "Compromise," and to appropriate
r. 11 the said oilices to themselves, came up in
the Senate yesterday. Mr. Clay and Mr. Foote
were of course head members of of the"Asso
niation." But only nine Demscrats have taken
stock jn concern, and we may guess that
t ie pressing ^notive that drew dir. Foote and
Mr. Cobb into it, was the extreme need they
? ? ? m t
felt of being "insured" by somebody, inoy
are in a predicament?groping in the most bewildering
darkness, with both hands stretched
^ o it to feel for the dangers ahead which they
fear all the more from not being able to tell
when or in what precise shape they will start
up. Hence they are trying to get up all soitof
new platforms. The Whigs are swallowing
' them ; they feel it; they are tryiug, hut in vain,
to escape their jaws. Their position, and their
struggles to mend it, are becoming equally ridiculous.
Orit Railroad.-In a late table, prepared
and published at the North, we see, in a compa;
ativtf statement as to the rate per mile, that
the fare from Charleston to Hamburg is placed
at 8 dollars. This is an error. It is four dollars
: and th?? same to Columbia.
While writing on this topic it is but justice
to say that, the Road from Hamburg to Charleston,
over which we have lately travel ed is bo.
ing made one of the most delightful in the
Southwest. The moment a traveller enters on

I take much pleasure in adding my individual
testimony to the public vouchers which the bearer,
Mr. John Ronnie Blake, of Abbeville, S. C., will
receive from the authorities of* this Institution.
An intimate connection with hiiu for the past
thrpe years har, in the minds of the Faculty, gained
for him a hitth reputation both for intellectual
and moral excellence. As a general scholar, he
secured a high honor in his class, and never, during
his sojourn among us, did he become amenable
to discipline.
In my own department, I consider Mr. Blake
eminently and decidedly qualified to make a very
superior instructor?and as such I would, with
I best wishes and in al! good faith, recommend Aim
to any community who may wish for a man of
I good solid acquirements and fine taste.

as convenient, organize themselves into a Society
for the management of the funds.
The necessary expenses of the Institution will
be the erection of suitable plain buildings; the
board of indigent pupils, and the salary of a competent
superintendent teacher, as soon as the
school shall be firmly established. No salary having
as yet been fixed, arrangements will be made,
for the present, with the friends of the cause; with
the aid derived from a few paying pupils, to commence
the exercises at time specified.
The price of.paying pupils will vary from $7 to
$16 per session of five months, invariably in advance.
