This book was released on 2018-02-16 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Maryland Colonization Journal, Vol. 2: February, 1844 It is our decided opinion, for various reasons, that they should be remov ed, not only from Charles county, but from the State. The committee think in truth, that for social and intellectual improvement, they ought to be transported from America, beyond the Atlantic Ocean; and that Liberia or Maryland in Africa, is the proper place in which they should be settled. The committee will now give their reasons for this conviction; and for that purpose, we will show the means of transportation, and the resources that will be placed in their power in Africa, arising from the fertility of the region to which they will be removed, the natural advantages to be enjoyed from a fortunate or favorable location, a congenial climate, and the full means there will exist, that they may become a great, prosperous and hap py people; and furnish a solution of the problem, as to the capacity of the black species of the human race, for high moral and intellectual improve ment. For the purposes of showing the agricultural and other resources of the colony, the committee will quote from various and unquestionable authority.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Maryland Colonization Journal, Vol. 2: December, 1844 These assertions have had the greater in uence, because they have been thought to be corroborated by the representations of American Missionaries, laboring for the conversion of the heathen in and around the colonial posses sions. These missionaries, it is said, represent the colonies, or the c'olonists, or something connected with colonization, as serious obstacles to the suc cess of their labors. In this way, some of our former friends have been led to disbelieve, and still greater numbers to doubt, the utility of our labours. The interests of the Society, therefore, and of the colony, and of Africa, and of Christianity, demand an investigation of the subject.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Maryland Colonization Journal, Vol. 2: January, 1844 Coast of Africa, instead of being held up as the promised land of the bond' man, has been made a Botany Bay; instead of representing a return to the land of their forefathers as the consummation of a providential interference in favour of the coloured man, it has been represented as necessary to the interests of the white man, enabling him to hold his property in greater safety, while it would augment the value of slaves by withdrawing. The competition of free coloured labourers. All this has been done to secure the favour of those in the Southern States whose favour appeared to be necessary to the success of colonization, and hence we may allow the best motives to those who contributed to it. But the effect was injurious. It armed the ultra abolitionists with weapons which they have successfully wielded against the colonization cause, and enabled them to wake up a hostile feeling among the free coloured population all over the United States against the Colonization Society.

Download or read book Maryland Colonization Journal 1845 Vol 2 Classic Reprint written by Maryland State Colonization Society and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-06 with total page 22 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Maryland Colonization Journal, 1845, Vol. 2 This policy and its results must enter largely into the history of Maryland. Its success must mainly depend upon the ability and skill of the emigrants to found such a nation as will accomplish the end in view: and this in its turn depends on the oft mooted question as to the comparative intellect of the two races, the white and the coloured. To decide this, facts are important; and not one more conclusive exists than the abilities and character of Benjamin Banneker. Whether, therefore, as a matter of mere curiosity only, or as a fact from which important inferences for present action are to be drawn, a memoir of the individual in question should possess interest for our association. Benjamin Banneker was born in Baltimore County, near the village of Eilicotts Mills, in the year 1732. His father was a native African, and his mother the child of natives of Africa; so that to no admixture of the blood of the white man was he indebted for his peculiar and extraordinary abilities. His father was a slave when he married; but his wife, who was a free woman and possessed of great energy and industry, very soon afterwards purchased his freedom. Banneker's mother was named Morton before her marriage, and belonged to a family remarkable for its intelligence. When upwards of 70, she was still very active; and it is remembered of her, that at this advanced age she made nothing of catching her chickens when wanted by running them down. A nephew of her's, Greenbury Morion, was a person of some note, notwithstanding his complexion. Prior to 1809, free people of colour, possessed of a certain property qualification, voted in Maryland. In this year a law was passed restricting the right of voting to free white males. Morton was ignorant of the law till he offered to vote at the polls in Baltimore County; and it is said that when his vote was refused, he addressed the crowd in a strain of true and passionate eloquence, which kept the audience, that the election had assembled for him, in breathless attention while he spoke. The joint labour of the elder Banneker and his wife enabled them to purchase a small farm, which continued after their death in the possession of their son. The farm was a tract of one hundred acres, the half of a larger tract called "Stout," and was conveyed by Richard Gist to Robert Banna-ky, as the name was then spelt, and Benjamin Bannaky his son, (who was then but five years old) on the 10th March, 1737, for the consideration of 7,000 lbs. of tobacco. At the date of Banneker's birth, his parents, although within ten miles of Baltimore, lived almost in a wilderness. In 1727, five years before, the site of Baltimore was the farm of John Flemming, on which, in that year, the legislature authorized a town to be laid out. The view of this town, in 1754, with which we are all familiar, does not exhibit more than twenty houses, straggling over the eminences on the right bank of Jones' Falls. In 1740, Baltimore had been surrounded with a board fence to protect it against the Indians. All this is proper to be remembered, in order that the difficulties against which Banneker had to struggle may be fairly understood. In 1732, Elkridge landing was of more consequence than Baltimore.

They become the Pilgrim Fathers to a land, rich in varied but undeveloped resources, where man roams untamed and unblest, which superstition darkens, cruelty tortures, and vice degrades. They bear with them the Harp of Orpheus, and the Harp of David 2 the rugged aspect of nature grows smooth at their approach, and love softens her heart. The cannibal war-cry breaks no more the silence of night; songs of peace are echoed back from the lion's den, the wilderness becomes as Eden, and the desert as the garden of God. The incense of pure devotion greets the sun at his rising, and the fire burns unquenched beneath the evening star. The poor African is secure at his daily labour, he sleeps quietly in his rude dwelling, and is no longer afraid.
