Book Anti Slavery  Vol  3

Download or read book Anti Slavery Vol 3 written by and published by . This book was released on 2015-08-04 with total page 572 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Anti-Slavery, Vol. 3: Monthly Reporter; Commencing June 1829, and Ending December 1830 So much space has recently been occupied in discussing the question of a want of a Sunday for the slaves; and in pointing out the miserably defective nature of that education and religious instruction they are said to be receiving that we fear lest our readers should begin to imagine that these constitute the exclusive evils of colonial slavery, and that, if these were but obviated, the work of reformation would be accomplished. This were a fatal misconception. The prevailing want of a Sunday is, indeed, most adverse to the hope of christianizing the slave population, and it reveals, at the same time, the insincerity of those, who, while they either conceal the fact of this compulsory desecration of the Sabbath, or resist or postpone the measures necessary for its prevention, are nevertheless loud, both in the profession of their zeal for the religious instruction of the slaves, and in the boast of the religious improvement that has been effected among them. But, even if a Sabbath were at length given to the slaves, and more efficient plans of instruction were adopted, little benefit would accrue, even from these improvements, under a system so debasing and brutalizing in its character and effects, and so incompatible with the purity and elevation of christianity, as is that species of personal bondage which exists in the slave colonies of Europe. For be it remembered, that even the British Critic has not scrupled to describe that system as one by which "the whole order of nature is reversed; the labourer being excited to labour, not by hope, but by fear; punishments inflicted in England by the magistrate for crimes, being inflicted there by the master for idleness or impertinence; the supply of daily food, and the maintenance of wife and children not being dependent on the exertion, self-denial, skill, or good character of the individual;christian marriage being almost unknown; the human form divine being treated as if it were no better than a brute or a machine; degraded to a chattel, seized by the creditor, sold in the market-place, and exposed to every indignity which tyranny or caprice may dictate."

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Anti-Slavery Reporter, Vol. 3: December 1, 1834 With respect to the former point, we need only to repeat What we said on the publication of the first of these two pamphlets, in 1826, (see anti-slavery Reporter, No. 11, p. - that the author might have spared all the pains he has taken to convince the world that the views now entertained by the leading abolitionists on the subject of the necessity and expediency of legislative interference, with respect to colonial slavery, have undergone a great change since 1792, and even since 1807. This fact is so far from having been denied, that it has been fully and freely admitted. Nay, it stands prominently forward as the very ground on which, in 1823, the men of 1792 and of 1807 formed themselves into a Society, for the avowed purpose of abolishing slavery in every part of the British dominions. But, (we then asked, as we now ask again) if the abolitionists formerly See substance of the Debate of the 15th of May, 1823. Preface, pp. 10, I1.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Anti-Slavery Record, Vol. 3: For 1837 Surely, those who testify against themselves will not be deemed false witnesses, and common sense and candor will credit their testi mony. As a sort of preliminary to the testimony, we introduce an article from the New York Commercial Advertiser, of April 25, 1827.

Download or read book Anti Slavery Monthly Reporter Vol 3 written by Zachary Macauley and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-18 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Anti-Slavery Monthly Reporter, Vol. 3: May, 1830 The system of slavery is a deplorable one. It debases, demoralizes, and sinks man to a level with the brute. The abject wretchedness of the unfortunate slave is only contrasted by the petulant tyranny of his master - this petulance and this tyranny he fancies himself entitled to manifest to, and exercise over, every man whose complexion is not white. Accustomed as he is to lord it with a high hand over his black and coloured slaves, he considers himself equally entitled to domineer over the black and the coloured freemen; hence, has arisen the con tempt and contumely with which thev have been, and will continue to be treated, so long as slavery exists. The people of colour, then, if they really wish to rise in the scale of society, must lend their assistance to the British Ministry and Nation, in putting an end to this crying evil. To the Legislature (of Jamaica) they need not look; a thousand instances of political treachery on their part must, ere this, have satisfied the most sceptical on this head. Do the people of colour generally, or any portion of them, consider the re cent measures as having originated from a conviction of the justness of their claims, or from an opinion that they are deserving of the immuni ties nominally said to be extended to them 7 We know they do not.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Anti-Slavery Record, Vol. 3: September, 1837 Names are things; and in some cases they are very important things. The mass of men shun vice or rush into it according to the name. To the name they attach, without qualification, the idea of right or wrong, and are apt to welcome a bad thing if it comes with a good name, or to reject a good one With a bad name. The most corrupt men and times do homage to virtue by borrowing from her the names of their vices, and till they have contrived to get rid of the right names of things, they are by no means at ease in their sin. Hence the first step in a moral reformation is to restore to things their appropriate names. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Anti-Slavery Reporter, Vol. 3: August 1, 1830 And now, after the question ofcolonial slavery has for so many years been familiar to the House, and I fear still more familiar to the country, I would fain hope that I may dispense with the irksome task of dragging you through its details, from their multiplicity so overwhelming, from their miserable nature so afflicting. But I am aware that in the thres hold of the scene, and to scare me from entering upon it, there stands the phantom of colonial independence, resisting parliamentary inter ference, fatiguing the ear with the thrice-told tale of their ignorance who see from afar off, and pointing to the fatal issue of the American war. There needs but one steady glance to brush all such spectres away. That the colonial legislatures have rights - that their privileges are to be respected - that their province is not to be lightly invaded that the parliament of the mother country is not without necessity to trench on their independence - no man more than myself is willing to allow. But when those local assemblies utterly neglect their first duties - when we see them from the circumstances of their situation prevented from acting - struggling in these trammels for an independent existence - exhausted in the effort to stand alone - and to move one step wholly unable; - when at any rate we wait for years, and perceive that they advance not by a hair's breadth, either because they cannot, or be cause they dare not, or because they will not;-then to contend that we should not interfere - that we should fail in our duty because they do not theirs - nay, that we have no right to act, because they have no power or no inclination to obey us, would be not an argument, but an abomination, a gross insult to Parliament, a mockery of our privileges for I trust that we too have some left - a shameful abandonment of our duty, and a portentous novelty in the history of parliament, the planta tions, and the country.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Anti-Slavery Reporter, Vol. 3: October 5, 1830 It is well known that one of the principal charges, brought forward by the Anti Slavery men and their adherents in England against the West Indians, is to this effect That from the state of the Colonial laws, and their defective administration, the slave, when wronged by the free man, cannot obtain legal redress.' It is not my wish to join in such a cry, nor is it my design at present to advocate either the prin ciples or the conduct of any party whatsoever. But, Sir, when a case falls under my observation, in which a slave has been grossly injured by a free man, has sought legal redress, and has been denied it, then I hold it to be a matter Of duty to put forth every effort on behalf Of the oppressed, however slight the chance of ultimate success, as I am equally satisfied it is the interest of every honest and independent Colonist to second my endeavours.
