This book was released on 2018-03-09 with total page 22 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Republic of Liberia: An Address The scheme of African Colonization is the offspring of a great Christian idea, which more than half a century ago fixed itself in the minds of Drs. Finley and Thornton, Gen. Charles Fenton Mercer, Elias B. Caldwell, Francis S. Key, and other kindred Spirits, who deeply deplored the oppression to which the people of color were subjected in this country, and feeling profoundly impressed with the importance of devising some plan by which the condition of a part of this people might be immediately and radically changed, and in such a way as to create a reflex influence which would produce. A salutary effect upon - as then existed - the abominable institution of American slavery. Hence the organization of the American Colonization Society, which you, Mr. President, and the Board of Directors here present to-day, represent. Those pure and disinterested men, with a wise forethought which penetrated far into the future, contemplated with earnest solicitude the accomplishment of designs in respect to Africa, no less gigan tic in their proportions than important in their results, and it is not surprising that irresolute minds questioned the ability of any mere private association to fulfill so great an undertaking.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Republic of Liberia: Its Geography, Climate, Soil, and Productions, With a History of Its Early Settlement Tn great interest awakened in this land in behalf of the African race, more especially since the abolition of slavery, has prompted the author in the prepare. Tion of the present volume. The interesting fact is here presented of a nation -born in a day on the coast of Africa - a 'nation, indeed, having a form of govern ment more in harmony with the teachings of divine revelation in its structure and application to the wants and well-being of the people than that of any human government. In this respect, it may be said to present a model, even in its youth, to the old nations of Europe and Asia, worthy of imitation. This is the more worthy of note when it is borne in mind that the continent of Africa is today the most degraded portion of our globe, and is less known to the civilized nations than any other.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Liberia: Description; History; Problems Again, after having given an attractive description of the first impression made upon the stranger by Liberia and its inhabitants, our author proceeds to say: Now, the spectacle which offers itself to the eyes of the visitor is less beautiful. It is the spec tacle of a nation in decadence. And this fact of a nation not yet a century old which, starting from nothing, raised itself in twenty years to its apogee, and has commenced, at the end of barely sixty years, to fall into decay, this fact, I say, deserves that one should pause, for at first sight it is not natural. And it can only find its explanation in the theory which I attempt to develop here, to wit: That the negroes in general, and the Liberians in particular, are emi nently susceptible of perfectionment and progress, but that this perfectionment and this progress are destined to a sudden check, and even to a prompt decadence, if one has sought to orient them in the direction of our European civilization.
