— Did they exhibit any regard for the eternal principles of truth, justice, and equity? No. — Any attach- ment to the cause of religion ? No. They fiercely denounced, what? — wTong? no; — cruelty? no; — oppression? no: — But the measures of the government then recently brought forward for the amelioration of the condition of the slave. They styled such interference unjust, mon^tr(»us. Unheard of, and 29 iniquitous. They displayed an unbending attachment — to what? — mercy? no; — humanity? no; —... to money! Each seemed to say, " Mammon, thou art my god, and I will wor- ship thee. " Did they denounce the Courant ? No. — Did they condemn the treatment the Missionaries had just experienced? No. — Did they propose a measure of emancipation of any kind ? They did not. There was a scrupulous avoidance of all the real facts and merits of the case. Many things were said about the worth of the Colonies; the export and import dues ; the amount of tonnage in the shipping ; the number of seamen employed ; the past greatness and present distresses of the Colonies ; the necessity of instant relief for the Plant- er; — but not one word about the compromise of national honour; or the forfeiture of national independence; or the wants and claims, and natural and inalienable rights of the Slave ; or the sacred duties and obligations of religion.
