Lorir>or*.?Mr. W. Thomas, Nos. 13 and 21 Cath
arint-Htroo;, Strand.
There were no tidings of the Atlantic, now
elev. n days out from Liverpool, when onr paper
went to press this morning.
Tho sailing of the Hritish brig TMfSf from
this port with recruits fur the British service
was prevented yesterday by the police. Threo
arrests were inado.
The Northern members of the Philadelphia
Nativist Convention made a gall'int fight yester?
day. We are no friends of their Know-Nothing
doctrines or methods, but it is impossible to
withhold our ndmiration for the br.tve and man?
ly way in which they carry the war into Afriet,
tell ihe South home truths which she desperate?
ly needs to learn, and explode the stupidity and
folly of our doughfaces. Su;h a scene was
never before wtfnes-ed in any politie.il conven?
tion where both South and North were repre?
sented. It is a cheering spectacle, and revives
our faith in Northern earne-dtio-s and courage.
Our report indicates that the South will suc?
cumb and adopt a platform b*sed on the restor?
ation of the Missouri Prohibition, though it is
possible that the subject of Slavery may be al?
together ignored by tho Convention. It seems
that the delegates of New-York alone among
the men of rhe Free States are in favor of pros?
trating themselves in the dirt at the feet of the
Black Power. Our report states, however, that
one of them, Horatio Seymour of BoJaUs, his
renoimced that degree of doughfacetltiess, and
speaks now, aB well as he can, with a Northern
accent. If the Tl ce-Soil platform <>f lee tnnor
ity is carried, it will be a great triumph for
Massachusetts and the states that hire gone
with ber; if it is deb ated, the Order can never
hope to carry anoth? r election in the North.
We shall see how the s11 i. o)e * ill end.

The Couritr and I'm/uirtr has enlisted under
the banner of the BsohSOtt. It is uneasy at
The Tkiim Ni.s exposition ff things its they are
at the South?the negro-huntint's, negro-lash?
ings and necro-bumint's. We are sorry not to
pleaBe The Couritr, but we must speak the truth.
When the tortures of the inquisition, expended
on negro girls, are hnshed-up by the Kentucky
press it is time for the indignant protest of this
latitude to make itself felt, although it fosters
"the bitterest feelings on the p.irt of the
'?South." That is very possible. Hardened
sinners w ill sometimes rice blltthkd of n pent at
the exposure of their sins. But on our part,
while we have no quarrel with slaveholders as
individuals, we wish to be understood as having
nothing but such "bitterest feelings" town'.I
uu institution which converts men into brutes
on the SM F.ml and tyrants on tho other, and j
which employs the power of the Government
and the resources of thousands on thousands of
people in extending its curse and perpetuating
its hold upon the country.
Tkt Counrr is, however, quite at fault about
the precise strength of the Anti-Slavery party.
It is not weak and is marvelous!) crescent. It
is a party, too, whose prophecies ha>e all come
to pass. It is a party which foresaw that
the Southern ci.mprontlses were measured
by the growth of the slave territory
and the unconditional subserwency of the
North to the handful of slave-drivers, whose
insolence and aggression constitute?thanks to
doughfaces?so large a part of the federal hist >?
ry of this country So low ha* the North sunk
that a sincere and thorough democrat now stands
a better chance of official promotion under the
Emperor of Russia than under the administra?
tion of Franklin Fierce. This is no figure of
speech, but hard fact. No man who is not ready
to aftirn. or swear that he favors the uncondi?
tional and hopeless bond ige of four millions of
human beings?the indefinite extension of
Slavery over new territory?the recognition of
e\cry sectional assumption of the South over
the North, resiardlea* of the material and intel?
lectual preponderance due the latter?can be
appointed even to the lowest tide-water mark in
the Vnstom-Hoiise range, or to the cheapest
feti h-at, J-carry bole in the Post-Office. On
every public building, special or hir. tl, great or
?mall, fix? d or temporary, these word* are
plainly written to eyes that MN > freemen
" employs d here." Every free aspiration must
be left behind for the time being by whosoever
enters that portal.
While this worse than autocracy forms the
rast Federal Administration of this country?a
power which w;eld? this year a pstron.tge of
seventy million dollar*?we shall not cease to de?
nounce it and to tell the truth about it. We be?
lieve in such revelation*. They are necessary
|g every reform. Silence about negro-burning;*
does aot prevent them, while thecraele?t *Ia*e

adding to Slavery. And ao wo may M on with

The Courier and Enquirer long nine,, b"l*ng?d
to th?* pirty of 1 'nion Saver* and ('ti'iipn>mi?era.
It hoped ai.d believed that the fta^Uf? Slave
law, which turned the free North into a man
huntiik| ground, would assuage for all time the
griefi. and detraction* of the LVpub?c. What
is the harvest of that salvation I Kansas and
Nebraska thunder back to nil eomprom
whimpering*. Even Castle Garden is- at last
tongue-paralyzed, or tella ua in euch limpid
generality a a? The Courier uses tnjvtrd the
South, that " the passage of the Nebraska bill
?' was an act which cannot be forgotten; and it
" ebould be remembered that it arome-d a feed
'? ing in the North which cannot be allayed until
m tie Missouri Compromise is restore^ "
That aroused feeling was not duo to I'nion
aavers by profession, but to the indepaadeal
anti-Slat ery prens, having then at la<t the ear of
all the Northern public, which felt that that
pr?ss alone had jH-iietrat-d the true character
of SUver\?,i - ?n institution utterly a eg revive,
unscrupulous and faithless in its ciiara-t-r:
whose upholders mistake the long-suffering and
forbearance of the North for cowardiM and f.'ar
of the chivalry, and just in proportion .1? they
are not met with manly defiance and renisttnc
will ewatger and threaten, and ttiaaltiTl Um
Union on paper forever.
For them and their threat* we entertain
neither respect nor fear. We shall continue to
reveal and chastise the atrocities of Slavery?
which makes animal* of men and tnen hums:
them alive nt the stake for crime? solely duo to
the l iirbarii-m of the governing powera; wiiieh
hunts them now with bloodhounds to the borders
of the Free BtsUflfl, ai: 1 threaten* soon to mike
the most sucred fields of Liberty the plains of
despotism, resonant with Uli overs-iff*!lash, as
it has alrc.n.y begrimed the historical associa?
tions of Hunker Hill and Independence Square
with the deeds of a Hallett and an Ingrahain.
The press of Kentucky and Mississippi mty join
The Courier in anger and lamentation that such
t>(1 eliitiens should be mtde; but on the other
hand we have tb? satisfaction of knowing that
iniiny an oll? rwisc helpless son of bondage will
hear, not without emotion, the name of Tun
Trimm: and will feel that there is a distant
P?<h er whit li watches and punish-s wloro law

As for that great resource of the Uoohooa,
the menace of dissolving the l.'nion, we warn
them that this cry haa lost its etfieMY. Nobody
is frightened by it now. Hesi jes, it in well nn
dcMood that the profit of the I'nion is all on
the aide of the South, its estimable value to
eachNoithern man being just forty cents, while
to the slaveholder it is incalculable. The Cnioii

Si DM dnys siice we copied from The Rock
rdlr (Conn.) Cazette au article in which it was
statt <l, among other things, that ;;,ore than
2,000 li tters of various description* had been
11 eei\od at one of the paper mills iu that towu,
during the la>t two years; that many of them
were letters of importance to their rightful owu
ers; that they were mailed in different part* of
the country, quite a number of them in Califor?
nia bnd 11 M ol them abroad: that the po^tiL,'?
was prepaid on a large majority of these letters;
that a letter mailed in California, directed to a
gentleman iu New-York, contained a cheek for
ftl05| that a Metel from Springfield cout.tined
$16111 bunk notes; that about half a bushel of
letters were received Iron: the Post-i Hime in
l'rov idence, iu one of which were money and
insurance papers of value; that a letter mailed
at l'ittfheld, directed to a firm in Hartford, con?
tained a cheek for $S0\ and that a leitetwHttfl
by a gentleman in this City and mailed to his
wile in Warren County contained a five dollar
bank note.
These allegations were specific; they were
evidently based upon facts; to suppose they
were fabricated ia simply absurd. The article
bore internal evidence of ita own truthfulueaa;
the items and figures given showed it to be true,
as we have no doubt it was in its main featur-*.
It appear* to have attracted the attention of the
I'ostmafter-t leneral, and deeming the charges
sufficiently important to require investigation,
i 1 ..[-patched Mr. Holbrook, a Special A.;ent,
to Kockville to look into the matter. The re
sult of hia investigation was printed iu our col?
umns cu Monday.
And what does Mr. Holbrook's card "to the
"public" amount to f Nothing whatever. He
tinea not even deny the allegation* of
7Ae Cazette; instead of that, he informs us
that the public hi'.* been " very unnecessarily
"alarmed;" that the ' De.id L-tter t ?rriee" at
\Y. ?I.ington haa no such " formidable competi
"tV r" as has been represented. He conversed
with the paper manufacturers iu Kockville, but
the only fact he learned was from a ?uperin
tctdent of one of them, who state* that
"during more than a year past," not exceeding
five li ttets, according to At.< best Ttcolitctijn, have
be? n found amoniT the cart loads of waste paper
that have been nct ived from l'o*t-().tice*, and
>> me ol tht ?e w ere w ithout post marks t<> show
that tht T bad ever been in the Post-Office, ac
ceniirg to the " best recollection" of the family
ol the superintendent.
Now thia looks to u* very much like a
" it IftJ." The charees are not met. The pub?
lic wai t to know about the valuable letter* re?
ferred It If t!.e editor of The Cazette. What
about the letter* from California on which the
I" l.i.e wa* prepaid' Have any such letters
been found* What about the one containing
$|i 6 f lias there ever been one of this charac?
ter found in the Kockville paper-mill f What
about the letter from Springfield; the one from
ProvidiM ee ft i t.lining money and inaurance pa?
per': and the one from Pittstield inclosing a
? I?ck lor fMI Where i* the letter in which a
gentleman inclosed $5 to hia wife T Tbeae are
aonie of the mattera referred to bj the editor of
TV Gtnette. Were they founded in truth or ?re
they altogether false?
It haa been intimated that the speoial agent
din not gn to Kockville to obtain the fact*, bnt
to eover them up, to whitewash the matter, with
the view cf quieting the alarm which the public
batti rally felt on account of the exposures which
bad been made We understand that he was ae
companied to Kockviile by a Postmaster, froui
whose office some of these very let'ers were re?
ceived, among which was at least one of value.
Why was thin, if net for th- purple of covering
up matters I It is not at all likely that a paper
? . hi r would care to expose n Postmaster with
v.him he ha* had extensive dealing*, and with
v. I.em he has always been on friendly term*.
\i.il especial!) would he be unlikely to do it were
he tolii in aihance that he had comoiitt *! i
criminal offence bjj opening the*- letters. It
would not be singular if, under these circum?
stances, a mau should fail t? recollect every
thine. The prospect, t<>o, that the head of ktM
family might get into Btsvta I'ri?on by making
himself too free with other people'* property?
for, we t;?ke it, letters belong either to the in?
dividual sending them or the one to wh >ra t!iey
are addressed, even though they may b
from a PoetofTice as wa?te paper?we say this
prospect inicht make the family itself also for?
getful.
Bat the card of Mr. Holbrook is etleuUted to
deceive the public addressed, if it was not de?
signed for that express purpose. He ftm Mr.
superintendent Talcott to say that "daring
"more lhan a year past not exceeding five let
"ters nave been received from Post-Offi Me,"
and then lollows the averment with the assertion
that the "half bushels of letters from Provi
"dence" were "lottery circulars addressed
"to persons who never call for them, or who
"in cities refuse to pay the Ac of the penny
"post." Mr. Superintendent Talcott's family
state in respect to some of the letters discovered
tlint they \sere without post-mark. Now, why
was not "the truth and tho whole truth"
given ' Ii post-marked letters wer" r> e il rt*J
and opened, it is most likely "the family"
knew what the post-marks were. The public
would be glad to be informed how many of th**n
letters there were, where they were from, and
the nature of their contents.
It strikes ns the Sj ecial Agent's card needs
explanation It leaves the matter which it un?
dertakes to clear up more involved than it n h
before he commenced. Letter-writers are
justly alarmed. In some parts of the cotiutry
it appears the mail agents are in the habit of
opening nod reading private communications
w hern \ er they see fit. Elsewhere letters are
gathered up and sold to paper-makers, and
opened and read by the superintendent and his
family. The people desire to know the length
and breadth of this business, and where the
matter is to end Heretofore the seal of a let?
ter ha* heeii considered inviolably sacred. If
this is no longer the case, if a letter is of so
little consequence that it may be used for waste
paper, it is high time the fact was understood,
so that perrons who are in the habit of in?
trusting their communications to the mails may
gmeru thtmsehes according!). It is a crime to
break the seal of a letter?a crime which even
the head of the Pw*y*O**r0*J I ?epartment cannot
'? v. ink at" w ith impunity. If this truth is not
appreciated it is about time it was impressed
on the minds of these officials by a few year*'
e< iitiiicti.etit in sotxc well-guardeil State prison.
POP! I. A It KIJirATIOX- Dkl KXGLA\T>.
If has always been the deliberate policy of
the upper classes and tne established clergy of
England to keep the people in a state of abject
ignorance. That the working-classes should
i ontinue to remain a base, brutal and drunken
uiob was deemed a vital necessity to the conser?
vation in its integrity of "our blessed Consti
"tution in Church and State." While stich
was the intellectual and moral condition of the
people it was calculated they would be more
prone to ignoble seditions for Slavery than
to a grand movement for Liberty, and would
sootier sack the house of Dr. Priestly because
he was an advocate for popular rights than
smash the windows of the Duko of Wellington
because be was their foe. Or if the spirit of
political disaffection should ever unfortunately
come over them, it was hoped that the mood
ITtlM evaporate in acts of lawless and anarchi?
cal turbulence after the* m anner of the Luddites
and Mai hiue-hn nkers. Thus it happened that
the on! kJitec.-ii mi ll who thirty years ago first
publicly agitated the questions of popular
education and temperance hj lineland were
looked upon as evil-minded revolutionists
bent on dark designs. The first Reform
Parliament in 183*1 set the example of a grant
by the State ta aid of populir education in Eng?
land. The amount was ?S*\000j but it was sjsy|
until Mfi and the advent of the Whigs again to
power that the provision was made an annual
one; after which, slowly increasing since then,
the appropriation last year had risen to jC:{(X),<sii).
Kn m these cause? it has resulted that En?
tlud is, in the matter of infant education,
conside rably in the rear of the other portions of
the British Lies. Sir.John Packington, a lory
Ktiight of Worcestershire, lately brought the
statistics upon which this conclusion is based
heii.re the House of Commons. His statement*
were copied at the time iuto our columns, .nd
are prt bably still fresh in the recollection of
that portion of our reader* who interest them?
selves in such topics.
Put in this as in so many other instances, the
English people have by their own unaided exer?
tions put to shame their Legislature and balllcl
the calculate ns of their Aristocracy. The phy?
sical features of England, its population so
i ? ? If compu ted into industrial centers, offer
li.i ciLUion facilities for adult education.
The opportunities thus afforded are not
thrown away, and we believe that the
educational activity of the adult masses
of the British population is as far above
the general average of the civilized world
in this respect as the state of infant education
among the same classes in England falls below
it. We lately mentioned the fact that there are
now 1,-Jl ti M. chanics' Institutes in the Island of
(in .t Britain; these institutions, seated mostly
in the large and small towns, have classes at?
tached to them whereat the vvorkingman can
haw the benefit of systematic instruction, and
thereby remedy, to some extent, the shameful
neglect in which his early years were
p. rtnitt. .1 to pass away. We do not stop
to describe the Free District Library
movement and the spread of Penny
reading-rooms, as our aim is cot to exhibit a per
feet outline of the instrnmenUlittee f?f adalt
1 popular education in England, but to oill atten?
tion to the operations of one anch institution re?
markable among ita fellows?the Workingmen'*

Nearly twoyeara ago the Kev. professor Mtirlee
was ejected by the Council of K :i >;'s Collefe,
London, from hi* chair of The ilogy aa l f. ? J -
siastical History on account of the hetero lovy
of bii opinions. That heter>?d ixy consisted in
hia rejection of the pbil.inthrop 1? isjfFsssa1 of
"eternal damnation "?a d.)gmi whi*h M i ir,| ?
admitted to be part of what he o l I? I
"the popular theology,'' but which h- did n >t
.!? em worthy of a place in hit own eclectic
cre.d. Professor Maurice, being of an earn- r
and enthusiastic turn of mind and determined
j not to be idle, thought of nuking a dire,-t ap?
peal to the workiniiinen of London. With this
j view he delivered iu the Metropolis a aeries of
free lectures on Popular Education and it j re?
quirements, and at the tenuinition of the
' course announced his intention of endeavoring
i to found a popular Academy which should eo ne
j up to hia idea of what such an iastitutioa
should be. Associating w ith himself i number of
' accoi: i h-t.ed vo'untecrs || teachers, the affair
was set on foot about a year ago. The
third terra is just ended. The eouncil of
teachers numbers twelve gr ?du\tes of the Uni?
versity of Cambridge, eight of Oxford, and sev?
eral members of Lincoln's Inn. The knowledge
1 of the first four rules of arithmetic, reading an 1
writing is the only condition of adtnitt ttic?.
The entrance f e is i S| for sixpence I week a
student can pursue any one of the following
courses: Drawirg, French, Geometry, AlfOhrtVj
Knglish (i rain mar and Structure an I Derivation
of Knglish Worts, Latin, Knglish Literataro,
Kuroppan Politics (the Sixteenth Century),
History and Geography of England, Structure
and 1 unctions of the Ilumin Ho ly, Law, Club
and Tenant Law, Physical Geography, and
Political Economy. The most attractive of
these classes have been Drawing, French, Ue
ometry, Latin and English Grammar and Ety?
mology; the least attractive, Physiology a id
Political Economv. The number of students
amounta to V.'0O. From an abstract of their sit
u tii ns in life we gather that there have attend?
ed, of the building trades M, cabinet-makers
and upholsterers 215, printers and compositors
10, tailors and bootmakers 15, lithographers aud
draughtsmen 15, engineers I", watchmakers and
jewelers 10, miscellaneous trades 157, warehouse
men, shopmen and tradesmen 39, clerks, law
writers aid accountants V.7, teachers 6, profes?
sional men (lawyer*, doctors, clergy, universi?
ty-men and architects) 23, This Metropolitan
Inttitute hopes to be the parent of many similar
schools iu the provinces. One has already been
projected in the learned town of t'ambridgo.
Eighteen Fellows of that luiversity have vol?
unteered their services f>r different depart
cents, with the Kev. Harvey Coodwin, tlio
Hnlsean Lecturer, as Principal. The Cam
biidge College will open for the commonalty of
that town in October next. It is anticipated
that even SBJtrnhlj Oxford will follow the exam?
ple of the Whig l uiversity. Tho People's Col?
lege in Sheffield is auoth? r institutiou born of
the ai-piratioiis of the ? top It after a higher order
of knowledge, and their own spontaneous efforts
to realize their ambition. It has ii less pretentious
corps offeachersthan that in London, but is bet?
ter established and answers its purpose fully as
wi ll. It was initiated in Ubut did not b'come
self-supporting ar il self-governing till November,
1816. In 1K>4 it educated no less than 551 person i,
ol whom 472 were males and H females; and this
was Cone at the trilling annual expense of ?820.
Its terms are six shillings a quarter in addition
to a small entrance fee. Dr. Lyon Playftir
take? great interest in iti progress and 0SOt>
eisest certain influence over it. Similar at?
tempt* were made at Norwich and Nottingham,
but they were not loug-lived.
Let not those who are now looking fir ex?
citing political developments from England
despise these humbler details. The universal
[ r ill* li-m between educational progress and
political reform exists nowhere more closely
tiian in England. It was the growth of iatelli
l> i et among the mass of the community that
formid the central argument for Lord Grey's
Keform bill of Mfst| it wns tho growth of intel?
ligence that laid the foundation for Lord John
Ku?hi ll's Supplemental Keform bills of I8kl and
I863| and it is the same fact which proves the
Beasonableness and gives hopes of the success of
that current for administrative reform which
has just set in with so much impetuosity.
Kecurring for a moment to oursVlves, we ask,
is the provision for the tuition of the mass of our
adult civic population (our mechanics, clerks
and teachers) what it ought to be considering
our material resource* and our facile habits of co?
operation engendered by the absence of the castes
ami -ocial barriers of the Old World ? The two
leading desiderata are that the instruction of?
fered should be cheap and near at hand to suit :
the OtOiTtSssMMt of the daily drudges of city life.
In the splendidly endowed Cooper Institute this
City at lea/t will have an accessible iustitution
for popular education in the highest d-gree
worthy of the Metropolis of the New World and
admirably situated fur the supply of our great
intellectual wants; but it ia not every city
which is blessed with a Peter Cooper. While
in England the instrumentalities for the educa?
tion of the adult many contrast favorably with
the provision for the mental training of the
young, with us the reverse holds good?oar
educational facilities for the adoloaceut and
adult mass of both sexes will bear no compari?
son with our unrivaled Free School sy stem for
children.
FREEDOM ? KEVTtrKV.
A few week's since the Kev. John 0, Fee, s
?tiivl born citizen of Kentucky, of a singularly
pure and gentle yet brave and resolute spirit,
wag interrupted and silenced when attempting
to deliver an address on the subject of Slavery
