Last week we laid before our &batten;
dealers respecting the Miii*of 11.AVAT.111*.tp
St. Domingo, to 'persuade tlier.afile,i4h&bitant's
luatarily to submit to that Rigte rf ,dairery hoax
which they had so nobly emantipased themselves.—.
We this day' lay before them.. nsmi'atimple ditajs
concerning this infamous busitteisiteilik'which ire
are confident will inspire in the bosoms of free mtg.
wherever they may be found, sentiments ot indigna-
tion nix inferior to those expressed by the inhabitant:
of St. Domingo.

TO case of the people in that island is singular aail
interesting : nor will all the ingenious efforts offal,.
logic ever be able to assimilate their situ mon to trtat rI
revolted' slaves. They were made freemen by a
of the French Convention, as regular and as bincii.T,
as any of those laws by which the estates of the emi-
grants and other victims of the revolution were said,
and are now he4l by those who became the purchasers.
Is the compact by which Louts has pled tied himself
not to disturb or overturn the Arrangements brought.
about by the revolution, to be considered as binding
only in as far as respects while men ? Have the ci•
decant white slaves of Boicamars, now that they are
emancipated, a right to destroy the liberty mule:red
on the blacks ? Is it consistent that, as a nation,
