SIXTH LETTER.
Most RcUerened Sr:-In my last letter.

Ham. established from the beginning, and
as imperative now as it was at that day
Allow me now, to shew the mis- ion of ia
phet in relation IL his brother Shen: ard |
here Sir, | must beg your especialat,
tention. In the first place, repeal myob
lection to the criticisms on the Donay text
which limits the Shemi ic race 10 the sbo-
sen people of Go2. II is true 'hat of that
race Almighty Cred Selected the Jew, aud
made him the depostQ.y of his supernatu-
raj law. Il is true, that SO far as that law |
! is concerned. he represents the entire race
from whence he springs; but the the Shem |
itic race is no more merged in the children
of Canaan. Shem, Ham and Japhet are
still the three brothers of the triune race
of Noah, and to the end shall we find hu-
mauity dependent for its enlightenment on
the action and reaction of the one upon
the other, as expressly pointed out by their
lproph=tic father. Japhet, then, has as dis
tinct function to perform towards his
brother Shem as he has towards his broth
er Ham, We will now examine it. In
The frs; place Japhet has deprived him OF
his tents,-the graces Of Amighty-God
are no longer TO be dispensed to the She
metic race through its own channel, or The
descendants of its own chosen son Ahra-
ham. Japhetis to teach he n his relation
ship TO the Creator through his supelnatu-
raj will See, Mos, Reverend Sir, what an
imme Use function is now before the inter
mediary Iro,her Take him, even as en-.
arged upon this noble continent, and he
! does not numher over three hundred millions
yet there are seven hundred millions more
of human beings, chiefly the defendants
of Shem, TO be euIighteud by knowledge
of God, as known in his suaerna ural rev.
elatios TO man. | again repeat, Sir, tina:
While regard this as religious duty, on
> The part Of Japhet, and every enlightened
. Japhetian must act under this conviction
z it is to this conviction it IS TO the natural
y characteristics of the Jdphetian race that
( the action is to spring. He is covetuous

I known as the Yankee principle; on the COLI
