IN the Sabbath Immediately before or after the 4th
Of July. The appeal proceeds to State:
{ There sre peculiar reasons for lunited and Wig
orous effort to raise funds for the Colonization So
ciety just at this time. The facilities of commune
Gallon with Africa the visits for purposes OF obser-
vation of intelligent tree colored persona and their
reports, on their return,o the Colony, its climate
productions, population. government, and it, adj
vantages as home for the colored race, in eli civil
social and religious respects, have had the effect OF
awakening deep and earnest anxiety, on the part
Of the colored people of many parts OF Virginia, TO
migrate to thar land of promise and OF freedom to
them. As the result of the information thus dis
tributed through the State, there are new one nun
drsd and sizty-nine free BON colored persons who
have given in their names to the Agents OF the Va
Colonization Society anxious to remove TO Li0e'
ria, and who win be quite ready to leave during
the ensuing autumn. Besides these, there are eghW
who have been emancipated within the last two
years, who are anxious to depart and doing tneir
best to get ready for any vessel that may be reaoy
to take them hence. There is only one draw oacK
to expedition direct from the waters OF virginia
during the fall 1t is the want of sufficient iunos-
The State of Virginia pays. for these VINO were
free at the passage of the act $50 or one nall Oh
the costofansporting adults; and So or less tnan
one third of the cost of those under ten years OF
age OF emancipated slaves, it no provision De
made for them by those freeing them, the whole
expense must be paid by the Society. From ibis
exhibit it will be that of the free people who
CO. the Society must pay more than one half of the
expense of removing--and the whole expense of
the emancipated. To raise these amounts the So
ciey must rely upon the lberalty OF the people of
Virginia 1t is on this ground, and on the pervad.
ing popularity of the scheme of Colonization, that
the Society it's claim and urges it's appeal for
help to the philanthropic and Christian citizens OF
the Old Dominion. And it is believed they can be
reached and the amount raised by an effort, on
Sunday, the Fourth day of July. The merits of the
cause need not be urged by us. The facts here
given will plead their own cause We seek to Sc
cure the cooperation of the Pulpit of the State
All the Churches of the State recognize the claims
OF the Society, and recommend them to the peo-
pie We believe, too, they are all pledged to the
Fourth OF July collection. We urge it then upon
all who desire to carry the Colonization cause into
full success, to give attention to this matter.
Any amounts raised in Virginia for this noble
object should be RENTED to Col Thos H. Ellis
