SLAVERY IN THE COLONIES.

Lord PERCY role, in purfuance of notice, to move
for leave to bring in a Bill for the Abolition of Slavery
in the Welt India Colonies. The general (cope of the
Noble Lord's fpeech was, that it was defirable to put
an end to the barbarities exiting in the Well Indies,
at the recolledion of which it was impoffible not to
fhudder. We ought to endeavour, as loon as poflible,
to refcue the Negroes from the condition of Brutes,
and raife them to the level of human creatures. The
arguments that were good againft the trade were alfo
good against flavery ttfelf. He thought, therefore,
that a time ought to be fixed when flavery fhould
ceafe, and a mode by which this defirable end might
be accomplifhed. He concluded by moving for leave
to bring in a Bill for that purl:rote:
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQFER faid,
that notwithfianding his refped for his Noble Friend's
motives and his participation in his feelings, he united
the Houfe would not be furprited if he role to depre-
cate all dircuffion on this tubjedt, becaufe he had be-
fore declared, that he confidered the abolition of the
:rade and the emancipation of the fl.tves as entirely
dillind queflions.—The dircuffion of the queition of
emancipation at this time might deprive us of the
advantages of the abolition of the trade, and in this
feutiment he bad the concurrence of molt of the emi-
nent charaders with whom he had converted on the
filbjed. All was done that could be done. The
emancipation would be a molt ferious injury to the
planters, and would not be attended with any benefit
to the Negroes themfelves. The emancipation mutt
be gradual and arife out of the natural courfe of
things, which was the only fate way in which fucb
great revolutions could be effctled.—He concluded
by moving the previous queltion.
Mr. GREENHILL was extremely glad the quef-
.
two propofed by his Noble Friend had been brought
forward at to early a period, after notice had been
given for its introdudion, in order that the Noble
Lr r 1 might have a prompt opportunity of delivering
his fentiments, and difpelling the alarms of
.thofe
whole interefis were fo deeply at flake.
Sir C. POLE fpoke to the fame effea, and owned,
that after he firli heard the prefent motion announced,
he thought be could difcover the cloven foot through.
out the difcullion on the former Bill ; and that it was
intended by the friends of that meafure, to follow it
up by fornething like that now propofed. He was
glad, however, that it now came forward, as well as
to hear the fentiments expreffed by the Chancellor of
the Exchequer.

Mr. WII.BERFORCE felt it neceffary to fay
(notwithilanding whatever might be his own withes,
or remote hopes on the fubjea now propofed) that it
was never confidered by himfelf, or any of thole who
fupported the former Bill, as any part of that mea
Pure, or at all conneaed with it : but that their ob
jet was to carry the lint great meafure, as laying
the bails for the final emancipation, at fome future
day, however remote ; but of which no hope what-
ever could have been reafonably entertained until the
former meafure was effeeted. He was aware of the
danger that mutt attend the fudden emancipation of
the negroes : they were of courfe unfit for the imme-
diate participation of full liberty, with any fafety to
their matters ; bin he Loked to more gradual means ;
to a more tender fyllem of treatment, to a proper
courfe of moral inftruCtion, and the inculcating into
the young minds of the Negro children all the Chrif-
tian charities, as the means of ultimately emanci-
pating that unhappy race of men completely from
that Itate. He retorted upon the Honourable Baronet
the argument of the cloven foot, and Paid it was mott
applicable to thole who oppofed the former Bill.
Mr. SHERIDAN, after the anxious expeaation
w'lich he had tall night expreffed, that the Bill then
palled was but the preamble of the ultimate meafure
of emancipation, thought that he fhould be guilty of
the graffiti incontinency in giving a fluent vote on
the prefent queftion. With thefe fentiments he need
fcarcely fay, that the Noble Earl had his thanks for
having direaed the attention of the Houfe to this im-
portant fubjea, even at that early period. The No-
ble Earl's liatements had been mifreprefented. He
had never propofed to enfranchile the living negroes
—his mealure, as he underflood him, was to corn-
, mence with infants born after a period, which would
remain a matter of future parliamentary difcuffion.
The planters were entitled to fair dealing on this firb-
jet% If the Houfe meant to fay, that by abolifhing
the Slave Trade they had done all that duty deman-
ded, and that they would leave the emancipation of
the naves to :he hazard of fortuitous circumaances,
let them be explicit, and fay Co ; but if there lurked
in any man's mind a fecret define to proceed in that
butinels, a fecret conviaion that more ought to be
done than has been done, it was unmanly, it was dd.
honourable, not to (peak out. For one, he would
boldly declare, that he had further views ; he hoped,
that the yc.ung Nobleman who had done his feelings
fo much credit, by the propofition he that evening
made, would nand to his ground. If he perfevertd
in the purfuit of his objea wit*be fame zeal as his
Right Hon. Friend oppofite had done, he had nu
doubt that he would meet with the fame fuccefs.—
An Hou. Baronet had talked of a Cloven foot ; he
pleaded guilt) to the cloven foot, but fte would fay
that of the man who expretied pleat-are at the hope

of feeing fo large a portion of the tnman race freed
from the 'hackles of tyranny ; it ought rather to be
fhid, that he had difplayed the pennon of an angel
that the cloven font of a demon. It was true no
immediate conne&ion exilled between the abolition
of the 'lave trade and the abolition of fla-,!y, but.
the fame feelings mutt be roofed by the canfideratka
of both quell ions ; and he who detected the one prae
rice mutt alfo &tea the other. H. did not like to
hear the term property applied to the fubjeCts of a
free country. Could man become the property of
man ? A colony emancipating from the free Confli,
cation of England mutt carry with it the principle
of that Conaitution, and could no more !hake off its
well known allegiance to the Conaitution than it
could (hake off its allegiance to the Sovereign. lie
trolled that the planters might be induced to lead the
way on the :trbje& of emancipation ; but he caution,
ed the Houfe againft being too fanguine on this fob.
jell. Were the planters themfelves always reticle,..
on the Wands, he fhould have greater hopes ; but it
was not probable that becaufe cargoes of human
milery were no longer to be landed on their thores,
that becaufe their eyes were to be no longer gluttel
with the fight of human Coffering, or their ears
pierced with the cries of human dittraftion in. any
further importation of negroes, that the have driven
would loon forget their fixed habits of brutality, and
learn to treat the unhappy wretches in their charge
with clemency and compatlion. Slavery would not
wear itfeif out ; it would become more rigid, unlefs
the Legifliture became more vigilant, and reminded
the planters of the new duty that had fallen upon
them, of rearing the young haves in fuch a manner,
that they might be worthy of freedom. Adverting
to the quotation from Gibbon, he contended that the
flavery of the Weft Indies was unlike any other
flavery ; it was peculiarly nnlike the flavery of an.
cient days,- when the haves frequently attained to the
highelt dignities—Efop, Terence, and Seneca were
haves. Was there a polllbility that any of the nn.
fortunate Negroes now in the Weft Indies fhould
emulate fuch men ? It might b; dangerous to give.
freedom to the haves in a mars, but that it was not
dangerous to give it them in detail, was fufficiently
proved by a little pamphlet that had been put into his
hands IA night, in which it was (tated, that a Mr.
David Barclay, to his eternal honour be it fpoken,
who himfelf had been a have owner in Jamaica, and
who, regretting that he had been fo, on a requeft of
the haves being made to him, emancipated them,
and caufed them to be conveyed to Pennfylvania,
where they were properly intlrufted, and where their
fubfequent exemplary condo& was the general theme
of admiration. With this fa& before him, fhould he
be told that he mull give up all hope of abolifhing
flattery ? No, he would never give it up. •He would
exclaim with the poet, in the words of the motto of
4.the pamphlet which he had mentioned,
I would not have a have to till my ground,
" To fan me when I fltep, and tremble when
1, 1 wike, for all that human finewabought • •
" And fold, have ever :arn'd."
Mr. WILBERFORCE, in explanation, denied
ever having difavowed his with that freedom fhould
ultimately be -communicated to the haves. He had
deprecated the difcuflion at prefent, becaufe he look.
ed to the gradual improvement of their minds, and
to the diffulion among them of thofe domeftic cha-
rities which would render them more fir, than he
feared they now were, to hear emancipation.
The CHANCELLOR. of the EXCHEQIJER.
and Mr. EDEN explained.
Mr. P. MOORE, however ftrongly he had advo-
cated the abolition, was again(' immediate emanci.
pation. The abolition would ameliorate the condi.
Lion of the haves, by forcing the Weft India planters
to treat them well, and they would ultimately be
prepared to receive freedom. He hoped llve Noble
Lord would withdraw his motion, that he wottd turn
his mind to the objeft with deliberation, and look at
it remotely.

Mr. MANNING was proceeding to Rate the rt.
Cult of his experience in the colonies, when
Sir C. POLE moved that the Houfe be counted

mediately adjourned the Houfe.

The French account of the affair which General
SAVARY, %Vial the corps of LASHES, had on the 16th
with General VON ESSEN'S corps, appears ir, the
Sixty-fecond Bulletin of the French army, which ar•
rived yelerday. The details are e;aftly fimilar to
the accounts we have already laid before our Readers
refpeaing that adiun.
The Bulletin is dated Liebfladt, the 21ft ult. but
we know from accounts of a more recent date, that
the head quarters of the French were afterwards tranf.
(erred to Oflerode, and that even there they were not
likely to continuelong.
This Bulletin is liable to the fame charge to which
all the Official Reports have been more or lefsfubjelt,
(ince the progrefs of the French was arrefled ; it is
occafionally inconfiflent and obfcure. There is an
intentional vaguenefs and confuficn in the accounts of
the events of the 16th, which convince us that the
French obtained no advantage on that day. If they
had fo decifively defeated General Vow EssEw as
'they reprefent, why did they not follow up their vie•
tory ? Surely the Fifth Divifion of the Grand Army
could have nothing to fear from General BENN mug.
who was Rated to have been driven acrofs the Preol

It h apprehended by many that the TJkafe lately
publithed in Ruffis, and which profeffes to have for
its °llea the granting of new privileges to the Met.

charts, will prove injurfuss to the Bata Trucial
thou,2,h probably not fo intended by ALE ZANDER.
Merchants raiding in Ruffia enjoy at prefent
certain privileges which are not recognized in the
Ukafe referred to. The Treaty of Commerce be-
tween this country andlltuffia, which fecured thole
privileges, expires on the 25th of this month ; and it
is thought that in confequence of the new regulations
they mull either leave that country or become
Burghers, or what is called Foreign Gut:ft', a meafure
;rating to their feelings, and highly injurious to their
interefts. This Mare is foppoled to have been the
work of a party which Rill poffefres too much influ-
ence at the Court of St. Peterfburgh, and which has
invariably cm,►loyed it againft the commercial in-
terells of Great Britain ; but this opinion may prove
Irlfounthd, and perhaps a new Treaty of Commerce
may be i►t contemplation between the two countries.

Mr. Jou:: Pia innex, nearly half a century a bookfeller
in Fleet-ltreet, who, by perfevering induliry, acquired
an independent forts:ne with [Ili& integrity. The
folbwing anecdote of this worthy man mull not go

—Seven years ago, on the failuie of his left fortunate
next door neighbour, he invited him to his houfe, and
relinquifhed bufinefs, to give him the opportunity of

" On 'l'urfday laft, during a tremendous gale of wind from the

fince died from the fevcrity of the weather. This information
was left night communicated by D. Toughgreaves; fince which,

Orkney, for (ecuring the enemy. Six fmacks failed this morning
for Scrabiter Roads and Couchnefs, to bring a detachment of Vo-
lunteers over; and very fortunately, Captain Richan arrived this
day with the Norfolk armed Ihip, from Lsith Roads. About 2co
in Kirkwall have taken arms; and feveral boats armed, have alfo
this day gone for Sanday. There is, however, no great fear to
be apprehended from the Dutchmen, who have been wonderfully
docile. They are without arms, and fcattered through the Wand.
A boat is (aid to be Peen coming ever, with a number of the pri-
