WASHINGTON, &C.
A PIoUs FRAUD EXPOSED.

We have for some years past heard good
deal of the system Of communicating religious
instruction to slaves orally. 1t has been stout
ly maintained, that to read the Bible and other
good books is unnecessary, and that the way
of salvation may be taught effectualy without
enabling the slave and the free man of color to
"search the Scriptures" Pious Protestants-
ministers of the Gospel-have, in humble sub
servieucy to the Slavery Oligarchy, adopted and
inculcated this Popish maxim; and Abolition
lists have been denounced as fanatics for oppo-
sing it.
Now, hear what one of their own number, a
Southern Baptist minister, Virginian, says OF
this system of oral instruction. He regards the
ignorance of the slaves as an insurmountable
obstacle to their religious instruction-to their
salvation; and yet he dares not recommend ed
ucation. The shareholders must not be offend
ed, even at the price of the salvation of the col
ored race. But we thank him for exposing the
pious fraud-the heartless cant about coral in
struction." G..
