Recent Missions in Africa have thrown
much light upon the manners and customs OF
its numerous population. 1t IS melancholy to
reflect that the most fertile spot on earth should
he the most wretched and uncutivated and that
with all its natual advantages Africa should
be sunk so low in the scale OF civilization Men
will differ as TO the expediency of toe colonl-
zation society; but sure am tn at he Is recre
ant to his colour and void Of every NOBLE feel
ing who can look with indifference upon the
efforts made and making to spread the gospte
in that benighted country. own him not for
brother who feels no interest in the welfare Of
his brethren in Africa, and cares not for their
deliverance from supersttions the most gross,
and denominations the most horrible. In the
2lst. annual report Of the Church Missionary
Society [Engl.] is contained the narrative Of a
converted native. He was the son OF the king
ofBamba and passed thirteen or fourteen times
as slave through the hands of his own coun-
trv,nen. Passing from dealer 10 dealer, for a
hoe for little salt or piece Of cloth he fell
On the fifteenth sale, for an iron bar, into the
hands ofa Portuguese SLAYER from whom he

Our population is now nearly three millions.
One million oil US are ffeemen. How disgrace

exclusively to our interests, and published at
the low rate Of two dollars per annum should

ranted to say, that it has been already exten-

tightening the mind, and imi rowing me COLI

crease OF its usefulness, under The direction OF
the present udicious and public sprHed e
ditor.
But much more liberal patronage Than 1t
has hitherto received, is necessary TO sustain
it. 1t was the want of this, which Obliged The
editor Of the Freedoms Journal to relinqulsh
his work. lie was loser, no. gamer by his
labours. The editor Of the "RIGHrs OF ALL,
has also been great looser By every number
he has published.
This paper was not undertaken by him for
his Individual benefit, but for urgenrral good,
and to that he is willing to sacrifice his time
and his labour. But to expect him also 10 sui-
fer pecunlary loss, is too much. He has pro
missed to issue the paper monthly, for year,
though it should be at his own expence. But
then unless you come forward and contribute
TO its support, it must stop. Will you suffer
this We hope not. but that you will render
il such aid, as will enable the editor to publish
it at least weekly, and will secure its cohtinu-
ance down to posterity.
