Several gentlemen wiro are raising a great
hue and cty against the Introduction Of slavery
into this state, appear t. be lnauenccd strong.

That 1t would better the condition of all
Africa, to bring her unhappy sable children to
The American continent, no one, 1t is presumed,
can be found SO stupid and destitute OF com
mon sense as to deny, or indeed for one mo
| ment to hesitate to believe. Therefore say
nothing on this head, and shall content myself
with referring the religiously scrupuloas part
OF the community, and especially the preaching
and erhoring tart thereof, TO such passages OF
holy writ AS would think ought 60 close their
bps, and which are concei ed TO be unanswer-
able, in favor of reducing negroes to a state OF
bondage to the .ohites, and OF introducing aud
treating them as slaves among us. The pas
sages OF Scripture to which | would refer, and
which may be deemed conclusive by reasona-
bic and candid men, are To be found in many
different parts OF the bible, but it is considered
10 be sufficient for our purpose TO quote from
| the 25tii Chapter of Levltcus, the 18th, ash
and 46th verses.
''Both thy bond men and thy bond maids,
which thou shalt have, shallbe of the heather
that are round about YOU; Of them shall We
buy bond men and bond paids.
| Moreover the children Of the strangers
that do sojourn among you, of them shall ye
buy and OF their families that are with you,
which they beget in your land and they shall
be your possession.
Sand We shall take them as an inheritance
for your children after you 10 inherit them for
"a possession they shall be your bond men
| for ever"
From these passages we see very plainly
that the Israehtes were permitted to make
slaves of the heather that were round about"
them, and :" of the children of the strangers
that sojourned among' them. II is very evil
dent that the African negroes are to be con-
sidered AS "strangers" and "feathen'' to US
christians, who stand in the place and foot
steps of the ancient Jews, Gods chosen peo-
ple and whatever was Lawful for them to do

FOR THE SPECTATOR
hiUZZLES
Union at large

| 1t is written in the law of Moses Thou shalt
not muzzie the mouth of the OK that trcadeth
out tlie corn PAUL.
| Mn. WARREN,
! AS | made some observations in your
last number respecting the conduct OF
those writer's who have 50 literally
abused the Methods, preachers for &C
casionaiiy speaking against slavery aud
as the editor of the Illinois Republican
has come out with an editorial article
on thst subject; in which he attempts
10 justify himself and his correspondents
for such procedure, by quoting from
the writings aid speeches of those two
| great British statesmen, Burke aud Pitt ;
| hope you will allow me The privilege
OF replying, through your paper, to that
article.
We admit the business and proprie,y
OF the observatio of those great states
men; but we do not admit that they have
any bearing on the question under dis
cusslon.
We likewise agree with the editor
that "political iarson, violence and
abuse" ought never to be heard in the
sanctuary-nor any where else; but we
do not adui. that for preacher to ili W
his voice against oppression, is such POI
Iitical jargon. And it remains for him
TO shrw that the Methodist preachers,
or any other preachers in this state, in
Opposing The introduction of slavery,
have departed from the legitimate cxer.
else OF their proper functions.
He has likewise made number Of
ex racls from the Sermons of some oil
the New England clergy, preached il
the time of the last war. But he must
have more acuteness than usually falls
TO the lot of mortals, to discover much
analogy between the sedilious ratings OF
infatuated clergymen, against the go
vernmenk of their country and the inca
sures pursued by that government, in
citing their hearers to rebellion, attempt.
ing to kindle the flames of civil var, and
dsInenber the Union; and the faithful
admonitions OF a pastor to his flock or a
| preacher to his hearers, not to be guilty
OF the sin of oppression, not to be instru-
| "iNh al ~ NAsNHhibS I't uhtC-
cessarlly to put their liberties and inrmu
mites and their all in jeopardy.
We agree that Politics should not be
introduced into the pulpit; but we do
not agree that morals should be ex-
Guided. And we maintain that the uues
ion OF slavery or no slavery, is as much
a question oil morals as Of holcy. Why
then must it be excluded from the pnI.
|pn? Why must the mouths Of the
preachers be muzzied, SO that they may
not shew that slavery is morally wrong,
and is forbidden in the Gospel; that it
Itends to harden the heart OF the master
10 brutalize the slave, and thus to render
it more unlikely that either the one OF
the other will obey the Gospel and en-
ter into the kingdom of Heaven ? Why,
but because that if the preachers mouths
are not muzzied, the slave party may re
defeated There's the rub.
! This editor seems trembingly alive
10 " the purity of religion" and he re-
grels that "the baleful practice Of de.
voting the sanctuary which has been
solemnly. dedicated to the worship Of the
Most High God, to the constant sound
ofpolisical jargon, violence and abuse, .
should have +" usurped the benign and
