Book excerpt: Excerpt from Address of the Board of Managers of the Maryland State Colonization Society There was another object, which the board of man agers thought of much importance, and which they pro posed to combine with emigration from Maryland; and which could best be effected at the commencement of a settlement, and for which exclusive control was necessary. This was the establishment of the tempe rance principle, as a fundamental one - prohibiting any person from leaving Maryland for Africa, who would not first agree to forbear the use of ardent Spirit, except in case of sickness; and holding any person ineligible to office in the colonial government, who either used or trafficked in it. An opportunity was offered of found ing anation upon the principle of temperance, and the board of managers thought it wise to lay hold of it.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Maryland Colonization Journal, Vol. 1: October 15, 1812 Gentlemen, - I noticed in your paper of the 22nd ult. The Report of a Committee of the American Board of Commissioners for Foreign Missions, to whom was referred the communication relative to the mission at Cape Palmas, in which are contained many reflections upon the character of the government and the colonists at Cape Palmas, tending to injure them in the estimation of mankind. Being a citizen of that colony, and, of course, suffering in common with other of my brethren, I feel myself impelled, by the highest and most solemn considerations, to repel the unjust charges and unwarrantable assumptions contained in that Report; and I trust, gentle men, that in consideration of the circumstances of the case, you will be disposed to admit this communication to your columns. I am aware that the bare assertions of an humble colored man, banished by a cruel preju dice from his native land, and who has sought a home in barbarous Africa, can have but little weight when thrown into the balance against the dicta of the congregated learning and piety of the most intelligent body of Chris tians in the United States; and it is with a deep sense of my unfitness for the task, that I presume to comment upon the Report of a Committee of gentlemen of such standing, honoured by the name of its distinguished chairman. But duty to myself and a much-injured people, compels me to come forward and declare wherein we are injured, and to appeal to the jus tice of the American public. It is not my purpose, at all, to discuss the question at issue between the Maryland State Colonization Society and the A. B. C. F. M. I merely propose to defend myself and my brethren where we have been most unjustly assailed. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Eighth Annual Report of the Board of Managers of the Maryland State Colonization Society, to the Members and the Public, 1840 In this matter the Board have not been without their disappoint ments. Although the laws of the colony prohibited native traffic, the fruitful source of difficulty and dispute, without a license, except for clothing or provisions, - and although no licenses were issued, it was impossible to prevent the exceptions covering a much more extensive trade than was intended, the inclinations of the colonists, generally, with some honourable exceptions, leading them to prefer the easy profits of trade to the harder won profits Of agriculture. This was remedied, to a considerable extent, by the introduction of the paper currency mentioned in a former report, which found great favour with both natives and colonists, - and which, being issued sparingly, and with a View to the competency of the public store to redeem it in goods, has maintained its credit, and along with that its usefulness. But nothing has tended so much to force the colonists to pay attention to agriculture, as the difficulties thrown in the way of obtaining rice, and provisions generally, from the natives, by wars among the latter. What might, at first sight, have appeared to be an evil to the colony, was made a benefit to it by the results; and at the date of the last despatches, as Governor Russwurm writes, there was more land under cultivation, by a great deal, than there had been since the establish ment of the colony, and the feeling was becoming general among the colonists, that it was both unsafe and impolitic to rely for support upon any other labour than their own. The importance of this subject justifies its being dwelt upon. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Report of the Committee on the Coloured Population, of Answers of the President of the Colonization Society of Maryland: In Obedience to the Order Adopted by the House of Delegates, on the 4th of January, 1841 The act of not only provided for tie removal of manumit ted slaves and free colored people of Maryland, but it prohibits slavesfrom being brought, and free colored persons from coming, into the State - both which provisions were consistent with the policy Ofthe law, which was to prevent any 1ncrease from abroad, Ofthe colored population, while an outlet was provided, by which its numbers would gradually become dtminished. Various supple ments to the act Of 1831 were passed, however, from tune to time, authorising slaves to be brought into the State under particular circumstances, upon the payment of a tax, so that although the te moval Of free colored persons and manumitted slaves by the Colon izat1on Society, was going on, and large numbers of slaves were removed by sale to the south and southwest, yet the reduction in the number ofthe colored population was not as great as it Would have been, had the original policy of the State been maintained.
