A Hampshire , Patriot . —t lEdmund Taunton , ' a , Hampshire man , born in 1785—a ' Manchester Foreign Merchant 6 f i 807—^ Foreign Commercial ' Judge of 1825 , and an ardent lover of Old England , ' -has placarded Birmingham ^ with . . a-: -wild , invective - against Lord Palmerston : " Lord Palmerston ' s Civte Itomantcs sum is now a mockery : it should be Non Guglielmus Pitt sum , sed Judas Iscariot sum . " Sir . Taunton , we believe , is an admiTer of Mr ; TIrnuhart . ' " '• ' '
' ! t > B . LrviitfGSTCH * a * Edinburgh . — The freedom of * the « ity of Edinburgh was conferied on Dr . Livingston on Monday afternoon , in Queen-street Hall . The civic corporation attended in their robes , and the liall was cirpwded with frpm lOOO to 1200 persons . In addressing the audien ' cej the " distinguished travener gave some very ' anrtusirig parti'dolars' of the ' native Africans . He said :- * - " There is agood deal of ignorance about Africa in . England ,, just ' jaa there is ignorance of England in Africa . In fact , in tliat . respect . we are very much alike . The Africans look upon us white people as only another tribe of men , and , when I attempt to tell what
their numbers may be , they put to me tlie question , ' Are they as many a * a cloud of locusts ? ' If I say yes , they ask me further whether , if each of the white people were to , take a locust into his hand , they would finish the-whole cloud . Of course I say I think they would . Then they will add , Your Qiieen rnust be ver } - rich indeed when she has so many people . ' l Oh yes , ' I reply ; . ' she is exceedingly rich ; ' and I nm nsked , ' Has she ,, many cows ?'—a , question I really could never answer ( laughter ' ); and then , wlien I mention the fact that I have never seen the Queen , they sa } r , ' What sort of people must you be never to have seen your chief ?'
. . . . When English people- think about Africa , they imagine that all the Africans are like the spe . ciniens . we nave in front of the tobacconists' shops . ( Lang / iier . ) Thia'isnot the case at all . ' That ik the real negro type that is only to be found iu the lowest part of the population . . The , people , generally are not altogether black , Ijlany of them are , of . olive colour—or of the colour of coffee-and-milk , and usually the liigher grades of society ase of this lighter colour . I imagine that the type we s . e , e on the eminent Egyptian monuments is more near ^ 9 ' type of the central population than the tobacco-shop Variety . " ( -, 1 laugh . ) The Doctor spoke of the Africans da ' susceptible of culture and willing to trade ;
hereferret . . to the fertility of the soil , and mentioned his Qf ^ on ' . that by the cultivation of cotton there we shall no ^ oply civilize the natives , but shall contribute largely tojyarda the , abolition of slavery iu America . Dr . I ^ ijvmgston afterwards , replied ^ o a question which had bfieji put to him— '' Do thonatiye tribes employ slave l ^ o ( uj ?? , He s a ^ d ' : — " The tribes in the interior might bj ^ aid to employ slave labour ia . this way—when one tr ^ fl ^ onqu ' ered , anotbier it took the people of the con-<^^ i Gr . eA , tribe ii } Jx > , abjection , and . . called them their chill f V , Then ? condition , approached to that of slavery , b . u , t ; t ] ierp waaAlu ' ^ jli fFerence between , it and the America ^ -slavery , ' /^ there was no Fugitive Slave Law .
