Not only are combinations Of great force
forming against US, in church and state,
but there are practical questions of much

+ DEAR GENTLEMEN
4 l thank you for the
very polite invitation you have given me TO
attend your next anniversary, and shall
certainly avail myself Of that occasion to
show myself among you.
! You are right in calling me your
friend"-I have always beer one of your
best friends--in fact devilish sight more
friendly than you are to yourselves. For
six yearsyo have been making yourselves
the greatest fools that ever wore breeches;
and although have in that time been try
ing to put sense into your heads, yet so
great is your perversness and taste for
corruption, am sorry to say have, like
the man in the gospel, sown my precious
seed thus far in stony ground.
You request full attendance, and l
hope you will have it to your hearts con-
tent. | am we'll aware of the practical
| questions of much deIicacy among your.
selves that require to be harmoniously
Switzerland in order to come to right
decision on those questions l think you
ought ESPECIALLY to invite Mrs. Cove, whose
knowledge in obstetrics and physiology
may throw some light on the 1practical
question" of how much black and how
much white will make decent, respecta-
BILE, good looking mulatto color. Hereto
fore philosophers have differed on this
"practical question:" but l think in the
present state of the world it is high time for
it to be settled. You have long since
agreed on the great principles of Anti
Slavery, and justice of equal political, So
cial and personal rights to the blacks and
whites-but from the prejudices of the age,
and the combinations of great force
forming against you," the happy mixture
of the ladies and white gemmen, or ,visey
,carsey, as the play says, marrying and
intermarrying, has thus far been delayed.
1t is time now to bring about the glorious
millennium, when all colors and complex
ions will run into one, beautiful, and UNI
namenable, inexpressible, unbelievable
yellow--praise be to God!
You will perceive, therefore, that am
a decided friend ofyour great cause " as l
understand it," and that you may count
upon ne as one for the 7th of May.
lam, dear gentlemen,
Yours truly,
