Nothing can be added to this, it breathes the most benevolent and the wisest sentiments of enlightened humanity, and proves the determination of the greatest Sovereigns on earth to annihilate a pestilence, which has so long been suffered to infest the most 'inoffensive of God’s creation ; this declaration shews the inclination, no one can doubt their power to effect any thing, that does not belong to that Omnipotence which could “stop the rolling earth, or stay the flowing deep.” But 'it is four years since this declaration was made, and evidently now full time to have it carried into effect; that the African should burst his fetters and revel in new found liberty; that innocence should be rescued from unprovoked persecution, and induce a blessing for the interposition; that the door of misery should be closed against the merciless depredator, and the gate of commerce open {or the civilization of millions; the noble lord to whose care this great cause has been entrusted, E have no doubt will do his duty wish active benevolence, and by its final accomplishment, erect for himself a monument of fame, consolatory in this life, and recommendatory to the supreme Dispenser of inestimable rewards.
THE END.
