IXCIDBKTS OP TBI OCCAslo" A Southern man of so much distinction as Senator Houston from Texas lecturing in the capital of New England, on Slav* ly, a subject, on which of all others, probably New England is mcst sensi tive?is an event worth especial men tion. The discourse was delivered on Thurs day night, the Tremont Temple. The Governor and Lieut. Governor, President of the Senate and Speaker of the House, Hon. Robt. Rantoul, Hon. Anson Burlingname, and other dignita ries took seats on the platform. Before introducing the orator of the evening. Dr. Howe read extracts from a letter from Hon. A. B. Butler, of South Carolina, giving os a reason for not lecturing iu Boston, that he would have to lecture to an audience of foregone conclusions, and entering into a brief argument in defence of Southern Slavery. After telling his hearers thaf though far away from Texas, he felt he was not ?ar away from "home," inasmuch as h? was in the midst of Americans, the Gen eral proceeded to say that though born in the South, he had learned to know a North, He came among them unsolicit ed?indeed "1 might say, undesircd, because it de volves upon me a degree of responsibili ty to vindicate an institution with which I am concerned ?one in which [ had no election, one that fortune or destiny cast me into connection with, aud one that must exist, or the two races cannot exist together." It was not his purpose to discuss the abstract principle of slavery. "To discuss the abstract principles of slavery or freedom, is not my task here I take it ui I find it, and as I have found it in past life. It was not the contrivanct of myseli or ol my immediate, ancestors, that the institution exists in the country in which I live. Wc find that the adap tation of climate, of soil, and of produc tion have demanded and commanded the labor of a class of laborers that have been expelled from this section of the country. The institutions have changed in this section. In the achievement of American liberty, there was not one of the Colonies but held to slavery, and recognized it a* a right, as an institution. 1 he achieve meut was made by slaveholders, and il they have dispossessed themselves ol slaves, they have new enured to another scetion of the country and there exist to day. They are not objects of pity, or of wretchedness, or reduced to a state ol heatheuism: they are possessed of the light of civilization and of morality. [1 is the care of the masters there who have the fellowship of the community, to set that on the Sabbath day, the day of rest and adoration, their slaves attend the worship of the Supreme Being. The Word is thcie given by men of their own color, or by white preachers, and the) are instructed in religion and virtue. Masters rightly constituted there feel anxious that their slaves should become acquainted with the mysteries, the truths, and the advantages cf revelation. They do not desire to havetliein shut out from tju'sc advantages. Men who would re strain them from their liberty on that day?and I say with all sincerity that 1 1 have known but two masters of this kind in the whole State who are charged with compelling them to labor on the Sabbath day?are not consorted with by thtir neighbors. Their houses arc l?Cked upon as infected places. No one will consort with them, and no one -con siders them fit for any office of trust cr distinction. These statements, I know, are not con formable to the state of excited feeling which exists in various portions of the country. But they are nevertheless true, and I feel called upon by the respect shown to me to state truth in return for that respect. [Applause]. So far as the t'outh has heretofore ex pressed itself?I say the South, as I have come to vindicate the South against the responsibility sought to be cast upon it for that for which it is not responsible? the Souih has said, "let us alone, let u& regulate our domestic institutions for ourselves ; ycu governors, you states men, go on aud regulate your domestic institutions, but give us the same privi leges within our reserved rights of sov ereignty, and it is all we ask. Let us alone." llow long has that spirit of ac quiescence been i IIow perfect was it at the comaiencement of the last session of Congress! Not a voice of discoid, not a jarring sound was heard. Throughout the bro^d land j '.'ace, concord, harmony, and unanimity of feeling prevailed. The compromises of '50 had created for the country a state of peace and joyous tran quility not Wefare heard of. lo be sure, some exceptions were taken to them, but I speak of men and measures generally. No jarring sound was heard until a voice proclaimed within the hearing of the American community?"Nebraska! Nt iuiasea!" [Loud applause.] That was the note of discord?from whence did it emanate? Prom the South ? I deny it. [Cheers.] I will prove from history that the South never demanded il, uor did all the fouth acquiesce in it, either. [Renewed cheers.] 1 know it requires some iron nerve to stand up against clamor and abuse, but I would not give a tig for a man who could not stand up against the world when his breast p. ate is ^honor, and his helmet truth. [Applause.] Not one Legisla ture of the whole South?not one execu tive?exhibited any uneasiness under the Missouri Compromise. Not one single community?not one editor?not one ora tor?not one voice was heard claiming the repeal of the Missouri Compromise. Nor yet has one come from the North. I repudiate it as an effort of the slave power to encroach upon the North. [Loud cheers ] The North was not in jured by it: the injury was done to the South, as I insisted upon it the time, declaring that it was putting * knife at the throat of the South, whilst it was an abstraction at most, for not one slave would ever be recognised north of 38? 30'. For on the score of policy slavery never could react north of 36? 30', while south of that line it would be productive of benefit. Thus it was an abstraction at best. But it was that kind of mis chievous abstraction that dUruptarrd the bonds that connected the two sections, and created Apprehensions in the minds of the people of the North, that the South were struggling lor dominion, al though it was a barren sceptre for it at at last. SOUTHERN SLAVERY. As to the institution of southern sla very, he continued, we found slsves in the country, and we use them. We use them, but do not abuse them. We must use them, or where would your cotton mills be?in what condition would they he placed ? It may be said that this is mere cupidity?a very sordid view ef the question?but he would appeal to all common sense if it was not the real and just view? Slaves were there, and were not iitted for any other situation : the work could not be done br other labor. :*rd emancipation would not benefit the .si are. The speaker said that he had spoken plainly. His anxiety to place the sub ject in its proper light had induced him so to speak. All could not thiuk alike. The South did not wish to obtrude upon ih-j North, and so could not be expected to look kindly on interference with her peculiar province. Let us alone in the possession of our rights, and only our rights, is all we ask. As the Union cannot be severed, so let us live in har mony. The adaptation of slave labor to the southern climate and productions was again alluded to. It would be impossi ble, said the lecturer, to supply one quarter of the demand throughout the country for southern production with white labor. The white man could not supply the place of the slave : the negro is alone adapted to the situation. White laborers there fail and die, while the negro grows and thrives. The negroes cannot prosper at the North; at tb?* - South they live the happiest people of the world. Who said he had ever heard of a negro suicide ? If they are unhappy as a race, why should not some of them at least give way to their teelings ? Yet lie had never heard of an instance of self, destruction in all his life among these people. lie, as he had journeyed to the North, had seen amazing evidences of prosperity and progress, lie saw Slates looking like gridirons, and in every thing show ing evidences of splendid prosperity. He saw all this, and it delighted him ; but he would ask, could all these railroads and these improven^nts have been con structed without the nelp of foreign labor? Would all the native labor of the coun try have built them ? [Much laughter, applause, and no little amazement.] It - could never have done it. The work was well done and he was glad of it; but, said he, suppose all the improvements at the North were to have been achieved and we had no foreign labor to do the work. Then, he would say, had such been the case, you of the North would invs held slaves to this lay. iSensation ) There would have been no help for it. It was cheaper bere to hire labor than keep slaves, and when this is so in the South, they will >end the slaves to Africa rather than teep them among them. '1 he speaker, after stating that he had ectur.d under much difficulty, and that le had no opportunity for preparation, closed by an earnest appeal to his audi ence to retaiu ever in their hearts the ove of the Union, snd to practice for bearance toward circumstances that :ould not be avoided. VISIT TO WARREN STREET CHAPEL. Subsequent to his lecture at the Tem ple, Gen. Houston, accompanied by Gov. iardner, paid a visit to the Music Hall, vhere there was a concert taking place n aid of the Warren street Chapel. The ihiliren of the cbapel, several hundred n number occupied the seats on the plat orm, and the hall was crowded with a jayly appearing audience. Upon as cending the platform, the General was ntroduced to the audience by Rev. Mr. Jarnard He responded in a few words, complimenting the audience before whom le had just lectured as one of the most )i illiant before which he had ever ap *ared?and also, neatly introducing a cntiment in favor of the perpetuity of he Union. Gov. Gardner was also called ipon to make a few remarks, which he lid briefly and modestly. The choir of children then sang Hail Columbia, after vhich Mr. Houston retired amid the cheering of the assemblage. The Gov rnor and Senator then went to the raneuil Hall ball. The Vrrdaxt Groomsm an.?On no oc casion (says the Springfield Republican) lo people seem more prone to commit >1 under* than at a wedding.* The follow ng actually occurred in a neighboring own: In the midst of a crowd of witnesses, .he clergyman had just completed that nteresting ceremony which binds in the diver bonds of wedlock two willing hearts ind stretched forth his hands to implore .he blessing of Heaven on the union. At .his point the groomsman seeing the open lands reached out suppobed it was the signal for him to surrgnder the wedding fee, which was burning in his pocket. Accordingly just as the clergyman closed bis eyes in prayer, he felt the pressure ot two sweatv half dollars in his open palms. man herttated a mSmeEt, ap palled at the hkberoosness of his situatwo but coolly deposited the money in his _ pockets and proceeded with his devotion.
