As our columns are at present engaged in the chronicling of events in the history of this island, which Mr Horace Greeley never dreamt ol in bis philosophy, and which he and others like him will uave some difficulty iu reconciling with certain theories, we have not room just now to go through with the easy task of an-wering Mr. Greeley.

In the ineautime the perusal of the article may un fui row the brows now bent in painful thought, of our planters, and produce the agreeable effect in these awlul times of provoking a smile. It is thanks to such men as Mr. Horace Greeley, Dr. Underhill and others, that the poor negroes themselves are deceiv ed iuto furnishing by their own acts the best possible arguments agaiust negro freedom.
