HUMANITY, or the Rights of Nature, a Poem; in Two Books. By the Author of Sympathy.
MR. PRATT has touched upon the slave trade in a very pathetic and masterly manner, and his animated observations throughout, do equal credit to his feelings as a man, and his abilities as a writer. He thus traces its progress:—
Wouldst thou the map of slavery survey, And the dire circuit of the trade display, Dart thy astonish'd eye o'er distant lands, From Senegal to Gambia's burning sands, Pursue the blushing line to Congo's shore, Then traverse many a league Benguela o'er, Career immense! o'er which the merchant reigns, And drags reluctant millions in his chains!
Commerce! thou faust on a sanguine flood, On a red sea of Man's devoted blood! Thy pompous robe, tho' gemm'd as India's shore, Proud, tho' it flows, is dy'd in human gore, The tears of orphans bathe thy fatal cane, And half thy treasure springs from human pain, And not an idol on thy altars shines, But human victims stain the crimson shrine!
And thou, Oh! Int'rest! dark insidious power, Whose sanction'd arts waste nations in an hour; Whose mending hands, more fatal still, destroy Hope's tender blossom, and the fruits of joy; Thou, to whom all the coward fights belong, Thy heart too cruel for a generous wrong, For fierce revenge, that fever of the soul, Hate that defies, and love that spurns controul, On mad'ning jealousy when reason bends, Or zeal extravagant to liberal ends,
Thou, who, for noble faults like these, too cold, Whole vice ne'er aspires, but stoop to gold, That grov'ling passion of the sordid breast, Like Aaron's serpent swallowing up the rest; Theft, rapine, plunder, fraud, and murder, stand, Fell ministers! to wait thy dire command. Yes thou, the founder of this impious trade, Mad'st him a slave, that nature never made, To're the poor Indian from his native soil, And chain'd him down to never-ending toil.
Ah! insidious mischief, slave-creating Cane, Of ev'ry soft HUMANITY the bane! Thy venom'd sweet, whose foul-polluting art, Like some malk'd poison, eats into the heart, Sweet tho' thou art, an aspic sting is thine, And into shambles Christians turn thy shrine: Thou, like vile Gold , from th' embowel'd earth, By avarice dragg'd reluctantly to birth, To taste thy charm are groaning nations bound, And half mankind in kindred blood are drown'd.
Say, Mufe, from whence th' unnatural mart began, The sordid merchandize, and sale of man? From Egypt first the Ethiop traffic came, But dawn'd so mild, that slavery was not shame; While nature yet pities v'd some generous might, The yoke was easy and the burthen light; And here the patriarch saw each wrong restrain'd, And 'eye for eye, and tooth for tooth' ordain'd. Soon o'er the Egean waves the trade was brought, Travell'd to Greece, till Rome the infection caught.
At length the traffic into system came, Th' infection flew, till Britain caught the flame; Detested Hawkins arm'd his pirate host, And wolf-like prowld on Guinea's fatal coast; Force, bribery, stratagem, were all employ'd, O shame! till twice ten millions were destroy'd. The work of Christians this, whose lawless rage Taught milder savages foul wars to wage; Christians taught savages new modes of strife, And burst afunder all the ties of life; Christians taught savages to worship gold, Till, for their idol, sons and fires were sold; Till sleeping tribes at midnight's hour were caught, And seiz'd as prey, to public market brought; Till from the breast the babe was stol'n away, And children kidnapp'd in the face of day.
Next tawny Spain the shameful trade pursu'd, Th'etilt grew familiar, tyranny ensu'd; The tawny slave on his oppressor pour'd, And mad with smart his haughty lord devour'd; Infidious Spain ! still vanity thy guide, Thou mixture loath'd of penury and pride, Slothful in dignity, supine in state, Active alone in cruelty and hate; Commerce! like this, might well command thy zeal, O! patron of the agonizing wheel!
From where wild Brizay throws its foam around, And aids the dashing combat's frantic found, Ev'n to the sleeps where Pyrenees ascend, And like a rocky chain their links extend, The nations shuddered as it sprung to birth, And throes unwanted shook the lab'ring earth! Thou, Torquemada , thy assistance gave, To fix this engine which the thoughts enslave; Sedately savage, thou couldst calm behold, Men scatter'd piece-meal, tho' thy rage was cold; Quaff'd the warm blood, enforced the torturing power,
And view'd with horrid joy the flames devour. School'd in thy clime's demonic arts, couldst bear To see the cord inflict, the pincers tear; Array'd thy victims in the rich attire, And danc'd, like Satan , round thy feast of fire. Ah! well might Slavery thrive in such a hand, For all are slaves in a despotic land; Precarious life is paid in trembling awe, And the proud tyrant owns the breath they draw, Power, like a miser, spreads the greedy hand, Still creeping onward, never at a stand. A subtle miner working still his way, In av'rice of accumulated sway; Tools would be statesmen, statesmen would be And they would mount upon the angels wings; Power first advances with a modest air, But, born a tyrant, quickly learns to dare; By due degrees he throws each barrier down, Thinks strength is right , and calls the world his own;
At length grown absolute, assumes the God, And proves at once a pestilence and rod, Till, grown incautious, some rash point he tries, And in the ruin of his project lies. Behold where fatal Florida extends, His blood-track'd course the fell Velasquez bends, Launches his guilty bark upon the waves, To kidnap free-born men and make them slaves! See, as he gains the chain-devoted land, The sable natives hurry to the strand. His sailing cable on the waves they view, And gaz'd with wonder as it near them drew; But on the deck when human forms appear'd, And peaceful signal smil'd, no more they fear'd; 'Twas, Man they trusted, Man who spoke them fair,
And now as guests they land, as guests are led Thro' palmly groves to every Indian shed; The Spaniards there their glittering stores unfold, The shining mirror; and the toy of gold; Each gaudy bauble cheats the Indian's eyes, And ticks his passion into fond surprise, Teaches new luxuries and wants unknown, Till Europe's vice and folly are his own. The useless ornaments his senses fire, And each fresh gewgaw kindles fresh desire; Fair in the glass another self he sees, Till harmlefs wonder swells to vanities; From lures like these the baneful passions grow, And what began in pleasure ends in woe: Frauds heap'd on frauds to purchase these were taught, And every trinket was with blood-shed bought.
But soon as guests in turn, the Indian Bands, Condemn'd alas! to quit their native lands, No fraud suspecting mount the treacherous ship, Where, as in appu , he the chains and whip; Like nested snakes, whose poisons are enroll'd Midst wreaths of flowers, in many a shining fold; The faithless Spaniard leaves the plunder'd shore, His fraud succeeds, and freedom is no more. Then o'er th' all-lighted waves is heard the yell Of mingled thousands in their wat'ry hell, Shut from the light, unknowing yet their doom, The vessel proves a poison and a tomb: In the dark caverns of the bark they lie, Live to fresh horrors, or in bondage die; While the pale tyrant, glorying in his share, Mocks at the loud rebuke and dumb despair. Soon as the vessel bore the tribes away, What horrors seiz'd upon the trembling prey! Ah, hear the shrieks of kindred lost behind, Roll to the wave and gath'ring in the wind! Matrons with orphans, sons with fathers appear, But vain affection's shriek and nature's tear: The Spanish pirate ploughs the wat'ry plains, And plants his cannon at the thin remains. The flaming balls the wailing natives reach, And added slaughter stains the crimson beach; All, all is lost! but with a generous pride, Even slaves spurn life, when freedom is deny'd; "Free, still be free, loud echoes to the sky, Dare not to live in bondage, dare to die!"
PORTSMOUTH, Aug. 30.
We are informed, from good authority, that Mr. John Thayer , late a protestant minister of the puritan sect, in Boston, but who publickly embraced the Roman Catholic religion at Rome, on the 25th day of May, 1783, is shortly expected to arrive at Boston, in the character of Papal Bishop . He has been offered a handsome living as minister to a chapel in France; but he declined it, preferring (as he says) poverty, and visiting his relations and countrymen, hoping to convince them, that as there is but one faith, and one baptism, so there is but one church which has been preserved from the days of J. Christ; and that we ought to obey her under pain of being regarded as heathen, and relinquish our salvation, by being separated from Christ, and the Church he has promised to be with unto the end of the world . He is become very near the Pope, and all the ecclesiastics of the See of Rome. He has visited Madam Louise , (Aunt of the present King of France, who was the darling daughter of Louis XV. but has now become a nun of the order of the Camelites ,) and will return to his country with all the prayers and benedictions of the church of Rome. The Milky of America never produced an instance of the kind before—his reception will no doubt be becoming a country tolerating and protecting all religions. He exults much in the surprising revolution in Ameri-
BOSTON, September 4.
On Saturday last the Squadron of his Most Ch. M. Majesty came into and anchored in Nantasket Road. On Monday, the Right Hon. the Marquis de Saint Nazille , the commander of this Squadron, came up to town, and accompanied by the corps of officers, proceeded from the house of the Hon. Conseiller France, to the house of his Excellency the Governor; where they were politely received by his Excellency, several Members of the Hon. Council, the Hon. Judges of the Supreme Judicial Court, in their robes, and a number of other gentlemen of distinction. The company partook of an elegant collation, and the pleasing interview was attended with every expression of heart-felt satisfaction.
On Monday last, agreeably to its charter, the Ancient and Honourable Artillery Company of this Commonwealth, paraded at Faneuil-Hall, from whence they marched into the Common, and performed their usual manœuvres, evolutions, and firings, with soldier-like exactness.
The American Academy of Arts and Sciences, at a meeting on the 10th ult. elected the following gentlemen Fellows.
Charles Hutton, L.L.D. F.R.S. Professor of Mathematics, in the Royal Academy at Woolwich.
John Caskly Leffon, M.D. Fellow of the Royal, Antiquarian and Medical Societies of London.
Benjamin Rabb, M.D. of Philadelphia.
Winthrop Sargent, jun. Esquire.
Jonathan Stokes, M.D. late President of the Royal Society of Edinburgh.
NEW-LONDON, September 5.
We are informed that the anniversary meeting to commemorate the Massacre at Fort Griswold, the 6th of September, 1781, will be held at the Meeting house, in Groton to-morrow; when a Sermon will be delivered. Service to begin precisely at one o'clock.
On the 18th ult. arrived here from Guadalupe, in the Sloop Griffis , Capt. Jonathan Colfax, for the recovery of his health, the Reverend Arnoud Durre , of the Convent of Charity in that island; but he was so far on the decline that he departed this life on Friday last; and the next day his remains, attended by a respectable number of gentlemen of the city, were decently interred.
ELIZABETH-TOWN, Sept. 3.
The proprietors of the two lines of stages that run between Philadelphia and Paulus-Hook have brought their opposition to such a height, as to reduce the fare to two dollars: a compensation too inadequate to afford that recompence which every man ought to have for laboring to serve the public. Without a heavy purse, peccavi will be the result to one or both parties; for they seem inflexibly bent on trying the issue.
We hear from Hackett's town, Sussex county, that a young man, of respectable connections, got so vitiated in the ways of vice by gambling, that he made a descent on his brother in law's property, purloined a considerable sum of hard money, and then, in conjunction with the gentleman's servant, stole two horses, and made off—Well might that arch imposter Mahomet , viewing the perniciousness of this fault expressly prohibit it in the Koran, as a step to every species of vice.
PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 8.
On Wednesday morning departed this life, after a tedious and painful indisposition, in the 32d year of his age, HENRY W. ANDERSON , Esq. and on Friday evening his remains were interred in the Friends burial ground, attended by many respectable citizens of different denominations.
A passion for liberty, and a high sense of the justice of the American claims, altered this gentleman across the ocean from England in 1779. His ample recommendation from Dr. Franklin , and a previous military education, procured him the rank of Major in the American army, in which station he served with bravery and fidelity during the remaining years of the war. But his public affections did not absorb a sense of the obligations of a social and domestic life. He was sincere, just, and benevolent.
So unaffected, so composed a mind, So firm, yet soft, so strong, yet so refin'd, Heaven, as its purest gold, by tortures try'd, The man sustain'd them, while the soldier dy'd.
PETERSBURG, August 28.
The following was handed to us by a gentleman from North-Carolina. To His Excellency Samuel Johnson , Esq.; Governor of the State of North-Carolina, and President of the late Convention held at Hillsborough.
WE the undersigned citizens of the town of Tarborough, impressed with the liveliest sense of the important motives which influenced the wise and virtuous members of the Grand Federal Convention held at Philadelphia, beg leave to approach your Excellency, and express our sincere approbation of the zeal you have displayed, to connect the State of North-Carolina to the General Union, and to those blessings and happy consequences we expect to flow from a free and energetic government. It is a duty we owe to ourselves, our country and posterity, to publish every testimony of reprobation of the unhappy influence of that public measure which claimed the attention of our late Convention in Hillsborough, and to record also our unequivocal applause, of the virtue, patriotism, and exertions, of EIGHTY-TWO STATES MEN, whose wisdom and characters, we trust will yet preserve all that we conceive precious in this life, to ourselves, and future generations.
United in the principles of your Excellency, we contemplated with emotions of pleasure and regret, this small, but wise and firm band, struggling against a torrent of popular phrensy, excited evidently to extinguish whatever hope remained to restore public faith, revive commerce and promote agriculture; and though their efforts proved unsuccessful, they are not less entitled to our gratitude; at least, their exertions, and the federal principles of our numerous adherents, may preserve us from indiscriminate odium, and probably recommend us at some future hour of calmness and moderation, to our place in the United Government, the only rock of Salvation on which we can repose with confidence and safety. Well assured that the most discerning of the majority, begin now to comprehend the danger into which their conduct was calculated to involve their country, themselves and their fellow citizens—we publish this declaration of our principles, determined to die and fall with the Union of America; supplicating your Excellency to employ all constitutional means and influence in your power, to convince the adopting States, or their Executives, that North-Carolina ought not to be included in a general condemnation, but that a considerable part of her most respectable citizens are still attached to a federal system, from purification, that from it alone they can expect exemption from domestic insurrection, defence from foreign invasion, and continuance of the blessing of peace and general prosperity.

High proof Jamaica Spirits, For Sale by SAMUEL PELL and Co.
NEW-YORK, Sept. 11.
Yesterday arrived the sloop Peggy , Cahone , from Rhode-Island , in 3 days.
The society of "Friends," and many individuals of other religious denominations, it is well known, are averse to Negro Slavery and the Slave-Trade. Now, the best means of abolishing both the slavery of the Africans, and the transportation of them to the West India islands, is to introduce substitutes for the articles which are raised by them in those places. The American Sugar-Tree , or Sugar Maple , produces syrup and sugar in very considerable quantities; and with a little attention early in the spring of the year, when the farmers are idle, quantities might be procured, to supply the families of many, who from conscientious objections, or found policy, object to the slave-trade. A very creditable portion has informed us, that ten hundred weight was made by one farmer, in Northampton county (State of Pennsylvania ) in three weeks last spring. Now as this is a supply for five families for a whole year, and as there is abundance of the Sugar-Tree on the waters of Delaware and Susquehanna , and there is wood in abundance also for boiling the syrup down to sugar, it is clear that large quantities might be made for sale. It is hoped that those who have the Sugar Maple on their lands will attend to this, as it really may become a valuable economical manufacture, tho' very little has been thought of it heretofore.

JONATHAN LAWRENCE, Esquire, President for the evening.
THE Committee of Visitation reporting, that from the great number of Persons relieved, the Funds of the Society were totally exhausted. That there were several Distressed Debtors in Prison, who had no other Subistence, but what was derived from this Body: and that without such aid, they must want the common necessaries of life. And the said Committee farther reporting that it would be necessary for the Society, to procure a quantity of Fire-Wood for the benefit of the Prisoners the ensuing Winter; and that, were the means in the power of the Society, the same might be purchased at present, at a very low rate:—Whereupon, on motion, It is unanimously voted, that the Clergy in this City, be earnestly requested, to preach Charity Sermons in their respective Churches, for promoting the important and benevolent purposes of the Society. And that Dr. RODGERS , Mr. LYNN , Mr. BEACH , and Dr. KUNZE be a Committee for making the necessary arrangements to carry the same into effect.

BURNS' POEMS.
Now in the press, and speedily will be published, Poems, by Robert Burns, The Ayreshire Ploughman.
THIS American edition of Burns' Poems will be ornamented with a head of the author, neatly engraved by Mr. Scott, of Philadelphia, and, to render the work more worthy of public patronage, will be added, without any additional expense, a number of Poems selected from the works of the celebrated R. Fergusson.
The publishers return their sincere thanks to those Gentlemen who subscribed for this work some time ago, and assure them that the reason of its not appearing sooner, was entirely owing to the extreme scarcity of Printing paper; a supply of fine paper is now received, and, as the work is in the press, they may rely on having their copies in a very short time.
