EMANCIPATION IN NEW GRENADA

We have recently noticed the adoption OF
law,hy the congress of New Grenada, aAoi-
ishing slavery throughout the Republic, aner
the ist Of January, 1882. The provisions OF
the =tsw are titus -sketVhvd by the Fhhatna
Star f
That on the day named, LIST January, Sh2
slavery shall no longer. exist in this Republic
All persons liberated from slavery shall be
eptitlcd to the same privileges, aud governed
by the same laYs,as are other citizens Of Now
Grenada.
"No slave under forty-Gve years shall be
valued at a greater sum uan ono thousand
six hundred reals, IT, male, nor over one
thousand two hundred reals, II female; over
forty five, the yatGv OF a male slave shall not
exceed one thousand two hundred reals, and
a female slave eight hundred reals which com.
pensation is TO be paid to the owners by the
government . .. .i'
Il appears, further, that the law contern-
plates the purchase Of several New Grenada
ans who are held in slavery in Peru. On this,
III Pdnemdno remarks:
IAN Grcnadians taken to PERU M slaves
are free, absolutely free, and New Grenada
is under no obligation to pay one cent for
them.
They are free, because neither in New
Grenada nor inPeru can this traffic be allow
ed without infringing upon our respective
contracts with Great Britain.
They are free, because published Peru
Wan law declares themtso the moment they
tourhPeruvian soil.
