PR0sPECTUs OF THE EIGHTH VOLUME OF THE
NATIONAL ERA
G. BAILEY, EDITOR AND PROPRIETOR.
JOHN @. WHITTIER, CORRESPONDING EDIToT
WASHINGTON, D. C.

The National Era is weekly newspaper,
devoted TO Literature and Politics.
In Literature it aims to unite the Beautiful
with the True, and to make both Immediately
mbservient to the practical purposes of every
day life.
In Politics, it advocates the Rights of Man,
and the Equality Of Rights, and opposes what.
ever violates or tends to violate them, whether
this be Involuntary Personal Servitude, Civil
Despotism, Spiritual Absolutism, Class Legis
lation, the Selishness Of Capital the Tyranny
Of Combination, the Oppression Of q Majority,
or the Exactions of Party.
IL holds no fellowship with the Wing and
Democratic organizations, believing that the
main issues on which they have been arrayed
against each other are obsolete or settled, and
that they arc now chiefly used by tho Sectional
Interest Of Slavery, 10 impair tho love Of Lib
erty natural TO the American mind, and to
subjugate the American People TO its rule Dis
claiming all connection with them, it yet sym
pathzes with those Of their adherents who are
honestly seeking through them to advance the
substantial interests Of the country, although
il muet believe that they have not chosen the
better way.
Il is a supporter Of tho Independent Democ-
racy, which holds that the Truths Of the Dec.
laration Of Independence are practical, that in
their light the Consultation Of the United
States is to be interpreted, that 10 them the
laws and institutions and usagcs of the com
try should be confrmed-a Party, whose
motto il, Union, not for the sake Of Union,
but for the sake Of Freedom and Progress /;
and Ian, not for the sake Of Law, but for the
Protection OF Human Rights and lntcs csts---
the only sure foundation Of order and concord
In no sense is it tho organ Of Party, or a
mere Party Paper, but absolutely FREQ and
independent" claiming to speak by author
ityr for nobody except its editor, and recogn
sing no authority in any quarter to prescribe its
course and policy.

triot and y lover Of his country, bear to see
this ancient Dominion, rendered iliustrous by
the noble devotion and patriotism Of her sons
in the cause Of Liberty, converted into one
grand menagerie, where men are to be reared
for market, like oxen in the shambles Ii it
better-is it not w0rsc--than the slave trade
that trade which enlisted the labor Of the good
and tho wise Of every creed aud every cline 10
abolish it. The trader receives the saye--a
stranger in language, aspect, and manner--
from the merchant, who has brought him from
the interior. The ties Of father mother, hus-
band, and child, have all been rent in twain.
Before he receives him, his soul has become
callons.
But here sir, individuals whom the master
has known from infancy, with whom he has
been sporting in the innocent gnmbols u child
hood, who has been accustomed to look to him
for protection, he tears from the mothers arms,
and sells into strange country, among strange
people, snbject to cruel task-masters. In my
opinion, sir, it is much worse.
He has compared slave property TO a capital
in money. ! wish it were money, sir, or any
thing else than what it il. 1t is not money it
is labor--it is the labor which produces that

has attempted to Justify Slavery here, because
it exists in Africa, and has stated that it exists
all over the world. Upon the same principle,
he could justify Mahometanism, wilhitsp plurali-
ty Of wives, petty wars for plunder robbery,

and enormities Of savage tribes. Does Slavery
exist in any part of civilized Europe? No, SIR,
IN no part of it, Americ.. is the only civilized
Christian nation that bears the opprobrium.
In every other country, where civilization and
Christianity have existed together, they have
erased it from their codes, they have blotted il
from the page OF their history.
The gentleman has appealed to the Christian
religion in Justification Of Slavery. | would
