AT a Special Meeting of the Committee aril
Friends of the BRITISH and FOREIGN ANTI-SLAVERY
SOCIETY, het I at 27, New itroad street, on Wednesday, the 31st
day of May. 1848, George 'William _Alexander, Esq., Treasurer, in
the Chair, the folowing resolution was unanimousty adopted :
Resolved,— I hat this Committee have learned with deep regret the
recent public declaration of Lord John Russell, that the Government
did not intend to propose any alteration of the Sugar Act of 1846,
either to Increase, or to coattune .or a longer period than th,t now
fixed, the differential duties between liritisn and Foreign Sugars, in-
asmuch as the elect 01 that Act has been greatly to stimulate the
Foreign African Slave Trae, and to give extension to the system of
slavery. That havin always, upon principle, strenueu.sly objected
tope Sugar Act of 18.16, in so far as the introduction of stave-grown
sugars into ;he British markets was concerned ; and 100- ing nut
only on the dreadfal evils it has already inflicted on multitudes of
suffering slaves, but the still greater evils it wril inflict, it it remain
nnrepealed, tlys Committee deem it once more to be their Only so-
lemnly to protest against a measure so criminal in the application of
its principle, and so baneful in its operation, and pledges itself to use
evtry means in its power to procure its repeal, and to substitute tor
it a measure which Brion wholly exclude slave-grown sugars from the
British markets, and allow of the lilacs:nu:don of foreign free-grown
sugars only on equal duties with those from the British plantations
and possessions abroad.
