BIRNEy's second LETTER.
in our ears, 'let this people go that they may serve me, ' Hhey can serve thee belter as slaves than in the condition for which thou didst formthem.^ Again: what has disqualified the slave for freedom — his 72a/i«-«/ state ? The c/mm* that we have cast upon him. Is it a reasonable course, then, to prolong a condition all whose results, down to the present moment, have been disqualificalion for freedom, with the expectation that it will yet, after the failure of our expe-... rimentfor two hundred years, bring forth fruits that consist with free- dom ? Shall we be careful daily to make the chains more secure, and hypocritically tempt God with our prayers that he may remove them? If this excuse be a good one now^ and slavery be contin- ued, producing no other fruits than such as it has already yielded; it will be good ne. T^ ?/ear, next lustrum, next century ; and slavery, with all its horrors, is made perpetual. Are you willing to say Antcn ? But it is said in avoidance, that although the present adidts are, and must continue through the remainder of their lives, unqualifi- ed for freedom, and therefore should remain in slavery ; ive can qual- ify their children for freedom by bestowing upon them a suitable education, and rearing them under the influence of the hopes and ex- pectations of freemen.
