Y Z h, ri, certain sections Of our Union the free
negro negro 4 is5ju regarded nd as an American citizen,
and entitled 70 all the rights and privileges
of, that proeud and lofty station. We can
send hin 10 those places. Indeed, A am as
sured that he. will be received with pleasure.

4 i regard our free negro population evils,
and to get rid Of it il one Of our highest du-
ties. Great as may be the apparent difficult
" Of accomplishing this desirable measure,
il would dwindle into insignifcance under
a bold and decided treatment. But all
now propose is, the passage Of a law prorid-
ing that each county, al our next annual
election, shall have the right 10 vote upon
the question Of removing the free negroes
within their respective limits beyond the
Commonwealth es'
Compare this, sir, with the late inaugural
Of the Federal Executive Of Ohio. Il will
Sc seen that the Chief Magistrate If Con
tiRuous. slaveholding State urges speedy
removal Of The free negro; while the Gov
ernor Of free State is FOR repealing all laws
which 90 10 prevent The liberated slave from
making Ohio his home. The effect of all
this. sir. will be readily understood. Garry
this out, sir, and the free States, and partii-
cularly those Of the West, will be literally
oyerrun with emigrating blacks. .,,a &
/ am reminded here. sir. of an anecdote,
which will. perhaps. suffic,entlv illustrate INV.
views on this head. ! II seems that sick
traveller once. calling for meal al an inn,
had plate OF butter placed before him per-
fectly black with flies. mTake II away (says
be.l and tell the landIady 10 send the flies
and butter on separate plates, and 1 will mix
them to suit myselfn ssssaa So
/ am satisfied, that, instead Of desiring the
abolition Of slavery, it is our bounden duty
to give il every opposition ia our powsr 4, un-
less il be coupled with colonization. If
slavery is 10 exist in this country, the slave
States have bad all the benefit Of it, (if any
benefits can result fiom ii) and the free
States ought not to bo encountered with
these manumitted blacks No !; let them be
kept together--let them be colonized; lei
them not be turned loose upon Ohio, and
ether free States. TO the prejudice and injury
Of our free institutions. s.g, S. ssi,eael' .,.'t
