Download or read book Maryland Colonization Journal 1849 Vol 4 Classic Reprint written by Maryland State Colonization Society and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-18 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Maryland Colonization Journal, 1849, Vol. 4 Here was England's position, and here was Liberia. The old empire, shaken by powerful rivals, and driven to extremity, was seeking a prop of sufficient strength to support her. The young Republic, in the feebleness of infancy, was needing a protector. That secret, unseen, hidden, invincible, and all-controlling power which had impelled England onward in her giant efforts to extirpate the slave trade and to abolish slavery, and which had inspired the hearts of American christians to restore the colored man to Africa, and had watched over and protected the feeble colony until it could assume a national position; that Providence which had made England's crimes of former years to re-act upon and embarrass her in all her relations, had now brought face to face the prime minister of England and the President of the Republic of Liberia. The first was the representative of that unscrupulous but powerful government, whose participation in the slave trade, to build up an extensive commerce and aggrandize herself, had doomed the children of Africa to perpetual bondage; but who was now, as a consequence of that very slave trade, compelled to the most powerful exertions for its suppression to save herself from commercial embarrassment and national decline; the second was the executive of a new nation - himself a descendant of one of the victims of the English slave traders - seeking the admission of an African Republic into the family of nations. The old Monarchy and the new Republic thus found themselves standing in the relation of mutual dependence - the one to secure a field for the immediate commencement of her grand experiment, of rendering free labor more productive than slave labor, and of creating new markets for her manufacturers - the other to obtain protection, and to offer the products of the labor of the freeman of Liberia to the commerce of the world." Latest From the Colony. It is near six months since our last previous advice, a remarkably long period to intervene without direct communication between this country and Cape Palmas. Although little is said of the present position of affairs in the Colony, still, from the general tone of the following letters, we are led to call ' our news, good news." Doubtless, ere our next, the Packet will be in port. Cape Palmas, January 20, 1849. Dr. J. Hall - Dear Sir - This bark returns home via South America, and it may be months before this comes to hand, but, perhaps, no other opportunity may occur to inform you of our welfare, &c. You will rejoice with us that the native war is over, and our native trade in palm oil will soon commence again. We had to contend hard for peace, as we found Freeman, old sinner, was the sole cause of the war being continued. We were exposed ourself in defending two from H. Cavalry, the purpose of spewing water, preparatory to the war being finished. I have had no intercourse with him since. At present, we sell no guns or powder to Freeman's subjects. They don't like it - we don't care. We are all well. The new emigrants are doing well. I remain, dear sir, your obedient servant, John B. Russwurn.

Book Maryland Colonization Journal  Vol  4  April  1849  Classic Reprint

This book was released on 2018-01-31 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Maryland Colonization Journal, Vol. 4: April, 1849 The countries where these doctrines exercise the most absolute sway, are the great heathen empires of China and Japan, whose people are not allowed to emigrate, even temporarily; though many of the Chinese are forced, by the superabundance of the population, to emigrate contrary to law. But the sentiment is not confined to them. In England, but a few years since, a book was published on the evils of colonization - not of any particular instance, but of colonization in general. It was the work of a good Christian man, and was read and praised by others of like spirit. And kindred feelings occasionally show themselves among Christian men, and sometimes 1 View good and very able men in our own country. It may not be wholly useless, therefore, to inquire what God has taught us, in his Word on this subject. This we shall now attempt; and we invite the closest scrutiny, consistent with candor, of our citations, interpretations and inferences.

This book was released on 2018-01-11 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Maryland Colonization Journal, Vol. 4: December, 1847 On a question of such magnitude as slavery - involving as it does, the interests of millions, and, it may be, the destiny of two continents, I should not presume to lift a pen, were it not, that my opportunities of a personal and intimate acquaintance with the subject have been somewhat peculiar. Being a native of New England, and imbibing as I did at an early age, an utter aversion of the system - residing afterwards nearly twenty years in different slave-holding States - travelling frequently and extensively in every State in the Union, where slavery exists - addressing large and popular assemblies of both colours - aiding in the promotion of Sabbath Schools and Bible classes among the blacks-conversing freely with master and slave, respecting the relation they sustain to each other, and the feelings of mutual dependence and attachments between them - together with seven years' residence abroad, listening to the most exciting debates on the sub jcet in Exeter Hall, London, and elsewhere - and now a resident of New York, where every variety of opinion is freely discussed - and, though last not least, never having had any pecuniary interests whatever involved in the question, may perhaps entitle my remarks to as much consideration as {hose of many others, who have never travelled south of Mason and Dixon's me.
