The Rev. DocToR SPRise on ABoLITIos-Ths
lecture on slavery delivered by the Rev. Doctor

Doctor Spring is little affected in his gestures
and his manner-but there is no afectation in hi.
sentfnests and opinions lie took hold Of the absli-
tionists without ceremony, and gave them decent
but a very respectful dressing. To slavery in the
abstract, but particularly to the slave trade he 10
undisguisedly opposed-but with regard to the sla-
very Of the south, he would treat il the apostles
and their disciples treated the relations Of masters
and slaves in the Roman Empire. Here the Doctor
gave very learned and happy historical sketch Of
the effect Of early Christianity the domestic sa-
very q the Roman empire. The apostles did not
disturb these relations-they found these relations
exi,tinr-they endeavsred TO mitigate them to
make both master and slave good Christians, but
they agitated and disturbed society by foment-
ing insurrcction or rcvolstion modern aboli-
tionsts did.
On all these points Doctor Spring was exceedingly
happy and practical. lie conceived the immediate
sbsitonists to be actasted by miscellaneous purposes
and principles. His audience was very numerous
and respectable.

part Of ne country is rapidly dying. The proceed
