Am old vYrircr ON slavery.

1t may not be undressing to our read
ers to be reminded of what Moatcsquieu jqst
century since, wrote of Negro Slavery.
The passage quoted occurs in The spirit q
The Lars, which was first published in
1748.
"If had 10 defend our nights to make Slaves
OF the Negroee this is what should say
The peopt- OF Europe having cxterminated
those OF America, they were obliged to make
Slaves OF the Africans in order TO make use of
them IN clearing sovast territory.
Sugar would be dear ii the plant that produces
it were not cultivated by Slaves.
"Tbese creatures are black from head to foot,
and they have such fiat nose that 1t is almost I'M
possible to pity them.
1t is not to be supposed that Goo, who is very
wise Being, has put soul, especially good soul,
into body entirely black.
at is so natural to think that it is the color
which constitutes the essence of humanity, that
the people OF Asia who make Eunichs always
deprive the blacks by more marked distinction
of their relation with us.
1.-THE color of the skin may be determined by
that of the hair which with the Egyptians, the best
8 philosophers, was of so great consequence, that
they put to death all the red.haired men who fell
into their hands.
"a proof that Negroes have not common sense
is, that they think more OF glass necklace than
of gold, which, among polished nations, is of SO
great consequence.
is quite impossible to suppose that these
creatures are men, for if we suppose them men, it
might be suspected that we ourselves are Chris
tians.
Some small minds exaggerated the injustice
done to the Africans. But if it were as they say,
would not the Sovereigns of Europe who make so
many useless conventions, have taken itlntO their
heads to make general one in favor OF mercy
and pity ~
