These papers describe a state of society which we had no idea ex isted in any part of the King's dominions—the color ed population there seems to have equal privileges with the white, ami arc actually struggling with them for political ascendency ! People of color it appears, are admitted to the Councils of the Settlement, where they indulge in a freedom of debate with the whites, bordering upon defiance. This must he very comfort ing to Mr Powell Buxton, Mr Zachariah Maccauljr, and the people of that ilk. The march of intellect, has fairly overtaken the sable gentry in those regions. The matter will he better understood if we briefly sketch the form of government established in the col ony. At the head of the settlement is a Governor, now Maj. Gen. Codd, appointed by the Crown, to ad minister the government. The next power is the Le gislative Assembly, which enacts the laws. To this Assembly colored as well as white persons are admit ted, the only qualification being a certain amount of property, (g30UU) the colored person being also born is the settlement. There is also a Bench of Magistrates, which is elected by the people, and to winch colored persons are also eligible. This last Assembly tries criminal cases and administers the laws generally.— Trial by jury lias also been introduced. Some attempt having been made by the whites to regulate the mode by which the colored people should claim their seats in the assembly, a vory animated de-\ bate took place, in which Dr Young, a colored person, was very conspicuous, and treated Mr Wright the Chairman, with marked indecorum. It was express ly declared at this meeting that the colored people were aiming at exclusive power, and Mr Wright re quested that the whites might not be condemned un heard ! The population of the colony is as follows Slaves 3000, free people of color 2000, whites 200! A countryman from Kentucky, offering a horse for' sale in Charleston, S. C. three or four young men un dertook to quiz him. After several impertinent ques tions, one asked, " Why, sir, what makes your horse laugh so?" The countryman replied, "he is ori'è smiling at having discovered his mistake in supposing himself among gentlemen."
