journeyings, labors, trials, disappointments,
encouragements and successes, with the pro-

side of the Atlantic. My beloved American
friends must not think unkindly of me, if |
do not write to them individually. Through !
the pages of your journal, will keep them
acquainted with my sayings and doings.
Let it never be forgotten that our object is,

soul the iron Of an unjust bondage enters
Brazil, with her two millions of slaves, a.
waits the Well-drected moral influence of
Great Britain and America united. A part

whatever country, in whichever hemisphere
they dwell. The voice of remonstrance shall
be heard from isle to isle, and from shore to
Shore and from continent to continent. until
Christendom is Furged from the stain of
blood, and Africa delivered from the spoiler
of her children.
