The people of Massachusetts have now a ttrxking proof of the ovil result ing from intermeddling with other peo ples business. Tho war that has been waged against the South by anti-slavery fanatics, led on by Seward, Hale, Wil son, Summer and others, has at last forced us to take measures to establish our independence, by adopting as. far as practicable a system of commercial non-intorcourse with the North. There ex* fifty thoueand journeymen shoe ma* kers in Massachusetts who have earned their bread by furnishing our slaves with shoes. Their wages are barely suffi cient to furnish the absolute necessities cf life. The Southern trade falls off; business becomes dull; the supply ex ceeds the demand, and the employers ourtail the miserable pittance paid to their workmen. On the 22nd of February twenty-five hundred shoemakers appointed their leaders and with banners and inscrip tions marched in procession through the streets of Lynn. Speeches were made urging them to stand firm, to demand their rights and never yield until their wages were raised. The same demon strations were made in other places. A schedule of prices was agreed upon and resolutions adopted to accept nothing less. What produced this mighty^ uprising of the laborers of Massachusetts ? Did emissaries from the Southern States pic ture to them in exaggerated colors their oppressed and starving condition, and instigate them to insurrection, ar son and murder ? No! It was the free ing Northern winds upon their uncov ered Itmbs, and the gnawing of unsatis fied hunger; the grasping avarice of hypocritical philanthropists with beams in their eyes, endeavoring to pluck the motes from the eyes of their brothers. When the abolition incendiaries invaded aSouthern State and attempted to in flame the minds of our negroes with false views of slavery and freedom, and placed in their hands the murderous pike, and the lighted torch, why was their fiendish mission unsuccessful?— Why did not tho “down trodden Afri can,” with heart burning with revenge, plunge the frightful weapon into the bo som of his sleeping master, and light up the midnight heavens with'the glare of his burning mansion ? Because when ohilled by the rains and frosts of winter that master gave him warm and com fortable clothing to protect him; when hunger called for food, he fed him to fulness; and when labor was to be per formed be went to it with a cheerful face and a happy heart knowing that he was not working for “an hard mas- These two pictures, placed side by ter." side in contrast are not overdrawn.— Will the Northern people look on this and then on that, and learn the plain lesson +hey teach? If not they must be among those whom the “Gods wish to destroy." [For the Rem Courier.] Bostok, Mass., Feb. 22d, 1860. Mkssbs. Editors This is the one | hundred and twenty-eighth anniversary I of the birth day of George Washington, I Throughout the country our people, I laying aside political passion, have, in I various forms, celebrated this day; and I paid unqualified reverence to the do* ■ fender and pretervtr of our common I liberties. It is an established holiday I here. In the forenoon of the day mauy [of the stores were closed, and in the I afternoon scarce any stood open I throughout the city. Notwithstanding I the wind, rain and thawing of snow— I produced by the ingress of a Jteavy fog (from tho outskirts of the Gulf-stream— I many strangers oame in from the coun- tty. The parade of Military Companies I i n the oorowflti and through the streets, I with the indoor festivals made up an [interesting programme. At sun-rise church and engine bells [were tung. A national salute was fired |on the. common. Flags were thrown at from the house-tops, on liberty- [poles and ship masts in the harbor.— [The British steamer, Canada, came Inshore at noon, gorgeously decorated with flags; and as she passed down the harbor, thundered a national solute.— By a special order of Gov. Banks, pre cisely at 12 o’clock, 128 guns wore fired. An interesting portion of the celebra tion, was the parade of the Amoskeag veterans. This is a military corps, or ganized in 1854 and incorporated the following year. Its design is to perpet uate the memory of the past. Its uni form is in the style worn by the general officers in the Revolutionary war. The sight of these venerable costumes bore me to the days “that are pastand gone,” and I gathered up love anew for the union and the whole country. Mt. Vernon is ours, and it is to the imperishable honor of our Ladies that through their exertions in the main, the home and grave of Washington is now rescued from the possibility of fall ing into strange hands. Whenever it pleases Providence to take Everett from us, we should honor him with a resting place by the side of Washington. Lot him bo the first buried in the American Westminister Abbey which ho contribu ted so largely to secure. No one living or dead is more worthy of such a signal honor. His statuo should be erected on the grounds, and by it the statues of those Ladies who have sacrificed so muoh and so devoted themselves to the >tt, Vernon purchase, It was my good fortune to hear, a tew days ago, Mr. Everett repeat his “ora tion on the life and character of Wash ington." I have never read anything of ancient or modern times equal to it, SAVANNAH ROUTE! TO A Quirt Paw,nit Inmate.—Miss Fulle in a late letter .from Europe mentions ' having become acquainted with Doctor ! _ __ Southwood Smith, the well known pliil- 1 |NkT p-r-rr \7~ anthropist. ‘“On visiting him,” says _L w C VV -A- '-L TV the lady, “we saw an object which Iliad Great Reduction in Rules of Pussage. often heard celebrated, and lmd thought __ . , ^ would bo revolting, but. found, on the New Arrangement ..... a.j. .. . .T-v - 0 f through contrary, nn ngrccahlo sight; this is the skeleton of Jeremy Bentlmm. It was at Kontlmm's request, that the skeleton, dressed in the same dress that he habit ually wore, stuffed out to nn exact re semblance of life, and with a portrait mask in wax, sits there ns Assistant to l)r. Smith, in the entertainment of his guests and as the companion of his studies. The figure leans a little forward resting the hand on a stout stick which Bcntham always carried and had named Dapple. The attitude is quite easy, the expression or the whole is mild, win ning, yet highly individual. It is well known that Benthnm, in order to op pose, in tho most convincing manner, the prejudices against dissection of the human subject, willed his body to the surgeons, and in a codicil, subsequently written, made a final bequest of his skeleton to his friend Dr. Smith. S&yIt is stated that the volunta ry fund for the relief of John Brown’s family is very likely to reach 30,000 dollars.

And the pleasure realized from hearing the greatest orator, in the finest stylo, and on tho noblest theme is be yond description or conception and can only be realized. It was more than the hundredth time, that Mr. Everett had delivered his oration. It was first heard at Music Hall in Boston, by an immense audience, and was met with enthusiastic admii^tion. It was so fa vorably received, that upon the sugges tion of some friends, he determined to devote it to the Mt. Vernon enterprise. The reporters for periodicals were re quested to reserve publication, and the speech has never appeared in print. So the repeating of the oration was an after thought. Although Mr. Everett has committed the oration to memory, lie usually pre pares an introductory and frequently a peroration suited to the place and occasion. It was in a hall situated on ry, resolute, cold-hearted.
