coalition at its outset, its practical workings have
only the more fully developed its perniclous ten
dency, and have shown that the spirit Of slavery,
as it is the antagonist of liberty SO it is all-grasp-
ing and never will be quoted until it has reduced
the laborer of all colors to entire subsection to
the ayistocratic tc1c. With such sentiments, we
cannot but recognize the eXnediency of voluntary
associations which have for their object the main
tenance and PRONUNCIATION of the doctrines of HUI
man Rights, and the exposure and combating of
oppression wherever it may found.
Therefore, Rcsolced, lst. That the Anti-Save-
Try Society, as it advances and maintains the true
doctrines of ethics and political economy; as it
opposes itself 10 one Of the greatest moral and po-
litica evils of all times; so it is worthy of the APP
probation and cooperation Of every moralist and
consistent republican,
Cd. Resolved That it is as inconsistent for abo-
litloniss, not TO carry out their principles by cor
responding action as it is for Christians to neglect
the most apparent duties Of their profession.
3d. Resolved, That religious, moral and poiti-
cal power are indispensable in the accomplishment
of this noble and phiIanhropic enterprise and that
the "Pecuiar Institution" cannot long withstand
their united influence.
4th. Resolved, That viewing the Colonization
Society as a missionary enterprise, as having for
its object the Characterization of Africa, we wish
success, and only hope that for the future it will
entertain and manifest the same Christian solicit
tude for the happiness of our coored population,
which it so loudly processes to feel for the for
eigner.
9Th. Resolved That the abolition Of slavery
furnishes the only efficient guarantee against the
Foreign Slave Trade
9th. Resolved, That the abolition Of slavery in
the British West Indies furnishes an additional
laurel TO the British crown, and teaches lesson
in moral ethics which our Republic seems slow
to learn.
9TH Resolved, That universal emancipation
mast and 70W prccede millenial glory, and its calls
are inperious upon ministers and churches to take
the lead in this enterprise.
9Th. Resolved That prejudice on account of
color is really prejudice against the law of Ma
ure and Natures God, therefore a great sin.
9th. Resolved That the Christian law of kind
ness and love to enemies does not authorize re-
sistance to injury, and the slave can alone look to
the declaration, Vengeance is mine will repay,
saith the Lord
The foregoing Preamble and Resolutions were
ably and eloquently supported by Hon. w. R.
Ranney, Hon. C. Phelps, Rev. Messrs. Burrows
aud Upham, Mr.. J. Mem. Shafter, and others
w. R. SKATER, Chairman.
Il. n. GRAVES, Secretary.
The voice of freedom. [volume] (Montpelier, Vt.) 1839-1848, 1839-11-30

Important from WaShingto n.-Exuact of a
letter from an officer in the Army to the Editor Of
the Courier and Enquirer:
8" We are on the eve OF another Indian War
likely to prove more expensive, as we'll as des-
tructive to human life than the mismanaged and
shameCully proracted War of Florida. y ou are
aware of the dastardly feud that existed between
the Ross and Ridge parties of Indians, growing
out of the treaty made through the agency OF one
Schermerhorn with the Government. The mia
my of this treaty was exposed in Congress since
that time great luminosity has existed between
these two parties, which has been increasing, un-
til the death Of Ridge was the result. The
Government demanded those engaged in this
murder, which has created great excitement
among the Indians this fame has been famed by
some Seminolcs sent from Florida, and great
apprehensions are entertained least war should
break out among them and spread among the 9TH
er tribes ere it can be checked.
IAN express has been received from Fort
Gibson setting forth the state Of things, and the
exposed condition Of the whites TO the numerous
tribes of Indians that the policy of this govern
mcnt has concentrated on tie spot. Should all
the tribes of Indians west of the Mississippi unite
against the whites, we should then have an lndi
an war more fatal in lis consequences than any
that has been waged for the las: half century

who was stationed ut Monserrat. He spent the
five years previous 10 July, 1885, among the CAT
frees in Africa. n inquired Of Mr.. s." says Mr..
X, what he thought of uniting trading colonies
with missionary stations. shall long remember
the holy indignation of his look and voice when
he replied. The sentences incosed in parenthe-
sis are his very words which are too deeply I'M
pressed on my mind ever to be forgotten. { You
might as well think to ally THE BoTToMLEss PIT
WITH THE New JERUSALEM 1t is mingling light
and darkness. 1t is attempting to do the work oI
God through The aid and agency of Satan.)"
"He says the commerce carried on with the
natives is system of deception and fraud. The
conduct of the traders creates suspicion and Jealous
les against all white men, and obstacles almost
insurmountabIe are thus thrown in the way OF I1"'
missionary. His color is the same as that of the
traders, his religion is of the sans name, and his
language is the same. The hearts Of the natives
are shut against him."
Mr.. Clay said that every colonist is misSlona-
ry, not to preach merely, but to enforce The claims
of religion by example, And yet, in regard to
the free people of color, he, in the same speech,
pronounced them the vilest the whole population,
worse than the slaves. What sort Of Christiani-
ty," asked c. C. Bureigh, "wilpsuch men intro
duce into Africa 2. We cannot Chri8tanize men
into better religion than we have got ourselves.
Until, then, we see that the religion of the United
States has put down the slave prisons in the city
of Washington, and in Alexandria-until it has
opened the prison doors ofthe captive IN thsland-
has proclaimed liberty to all the inhabitants there
of, we cannot see that this same Christianity is
going to abolish slavery in Africa"
"Shall the Christianity of one continent make
it the home of oppression, and yet make another
continent the home of freedom? If we should
convert the native Africans to our Christianity in
the way proposed, why should they not act as we
doc Why should our Christianity make them
any better than it does US? g.. Why should we
expect that Christians will be better made i'll AZ
RIGA than in America =. . The fact is until this
nation is brought back to the primitive and pure
Christianity, vain is the attempt to convert Africa
to such Christianity,by ceans of slave-holding
and slave-tradng Christianity

For the Voice of Freedom.
Meeting at TOwnshcnd.

The Quarterly Convention of the Vermont A,
S. Society met at East Townshend, at 9 A. NJ,
Nov. 90, and was organized by choosing Hon. w.
R. SKATER, Chairman, and Rev. II. N. Graves,
Secretary. Hon. w. R. Ranney, Rev. Mr. Bur-
rows, Rev. J. Parsons Hon. G. Phelps and j.
Mem. Shafer were appointed committee to pre-
pare business for the Convention. The following
Preamble and Resolutions were reported and unan-
imously adopted
Preamble. 1t is the intention Of all philanthropy
c governments to secure, next to their perpetuity
the happiness Of their own citizens, and Of the
world, and while all wish to endure, it is Free or
Democratic communities alone that would do so
through the intelligence and morality of their con-
sti,uent members. Yet, great as are the induce
ments to knowledge and virtue, it is not 10 be con-
cealed that in Republics, where Offices are elective
and all have share in the entire concerns of gov
eminent, the excitement OF party politics and local
interest, tend to obscure and degrade those great
First Principles, that are the only safe guards Of
popular liberty 1t is believed we can secure to
ourselves safety at home or respect abroad only BY
a strict and constant observance Of our great Re-

and are equally entitled to the enjoyment of life,
liberty and the pursuit of happiness" While such
should be the rule in order to gain for our pro-

is not to be denied that the American Republic
now occupies towards the rest of the nations Pc
culiar and before unheard-of position. In its orr
igin and constitution it contains denial of Bar
onial privileges, and of the @Divine Right of
Kings" and yet it retains and fosters in its midst
an institution which holds and treats men as prop.

Bassa Cove Colony, is not quite broad enough
Strange as it may seem to the Mercury, we sup
pose man may have pecunary interest in that
Colony without possessing lands therein. We
say again, that we understand our correspondent
to have referred to Mr.. C's interest by way of
trade. Mr.. Beclsey is now absent in Michigan !;
but we see no occasion, at present, for the proof
since the change has not been met even by an ex-
plici, denial.
