according to accredited reports, let them
clear off and cultivate our western Wlles,
emancipate and settle on the lands. at fair
rates, all who by the profits of their Ia
bour, may refund the purchase price.
By process of the kind, the slaves OF the
South may be redeemed, and prepared Tor

pleasingly and profitably employed, and
the southern portions of our country freed
from one of the foElest stains that ever
disgrsced the annals of any nation. A
plan something like this has been follow

in North Carolina, for some years; during
which time they have purchased and freed
about one hundred slaves each, and at the
same time realized both the principal and
interest Of the money expended IN the
purchase.

it was a third time overturned with the

1855, Lisbon was destroyed by an earth

$4,000 inhabitants. The effects Of this
terrible earthquake were felt over the

even in the midst of the Atlantic ocean ;
