Butif the abolitionists really mean what they say, why not support a Colored Editor with an Office, and a host of attendants, as well as a white one ? I have noticed that all the various trades among the whites have organized themselves into asso- ciations for mutual benefit, and mutual protection, against the encroachments of capitilists.. The beneficial results are incalculable. They tend to provide capital for industrious and responsiblemen, and labour and employment for others, and to promote and sustain economy in living, by com- bining their capital and making their purchases at wholesale. They report that in this way they save from thirty-five to forty cents on the dollar, or in-other words make sixty-five or.seventy dol- lars, laid out in that way, go as far as a hundred in the ordinary way of purchasing severally by retail.

'The Commitee had paid ovey £400 to the Anti-Slavery Society of Canada; any rest of the money was still in the hands of ths Committee. ib Mr. Ward was then called upon to address th assembly, who received him with loud and ré peated applause. He began by expressing th- deep and sincere thanks which he felt to thos gentlemen who had given their relative influencé and personal assistance on behalf of the fugitive meeting had already heard that this sum had bee? country for the poor man to be eomptred to Can- ada, where 100 acres of land might be®purchased for £65, and ten years given to pay itin.

Yankee town in Canada, to exclude their children from the new school-house which had been erected; but on the appeal being made to a British court of law, the claim of the negro for his children was honorab!y sustained. (Cheers. ) Why should not the children of the black man enjoy the blessings of education equally with those of the white? (Hear, hear.) In nothing, when free, did they show themselves inferior to their more favoured brethren, (Hear, hear) Let them be assisted for a little on their first arrival in Canada, and it wonld be very speedily fonnd, as experience proved, that they were not only quite able, but perteetly willing to help theim- selves ; and that not merely to secure food tur their bodies, bat to obtain also education for their children, and the means of enjoying the blessed privileges of the religion of Jesu~ Christ. (Hear, hear.) Mr. Ward reiterated the thanks which he felt to all those gentlemen who had so nobly and so cheerfully come forward to assist in tue promotion of the object which he had so closely at heart. The especial kindness which he had ex- perieuced trom that peerless of Peers, the Earl of Shaftesbury, and the kev. J. Sherman, of Surrey parsonage, he should never be able to forget to the last day of his lite; and to those genilemen, as well as to all the friends who have laboured in behalf of the emaneipation and elevation of the slave, he would say, may the blessing of those who are ready tu perish ever be yours. (Loud eheers.) Sir Edward North Buxton moved " That the thanks of ihis meeting be presented to the Right Elon. the Earl of Shaftesbury, for his efficient aid in forming the Society and pre- sidiag over its operations; and Geo. Wm. Alex- ander, Exq., Treasurer ; and the Rev. J. Sher- man, and S.

(Cheers) It was searcely ne- ceasary to say by resolution, that they returned their cordial thanks to the Earl of Shaftesbury. (Loud cheers.)
