chievously upon all our business relations with
Western Africa The Courier says:
"The African trade is fast becoming a very
considerable item in the commercial TRANSACT

amounts to about five millions of dollars annu.

ciyilization-it is Liberia, we say, that chiefly

will be an act which will profit her much, ant
