r,uate enumeration of all the willul perversions
IN this science committed by the PrO-Savery
.,,ans and philosophers would far exceed our
limits Suffice it 90 say that enthusiastic and
a.pterested scientific men, under the lead OF
.s Over Fourens. Pntchard and others, to
sbcm we may add DR. Btcbmann in this coun-
try, find in tbs physics conformation aud suucture
~ the negro man. as we'll a, in the laws of hybrdty
ouite different phenomena and no such cardinal
contrasts to the white man, IS those which the
same science teaches her pupils on this side Of the
Atlantic, whether the latter be American born or
foreign deser,ers 20 the camp Of Slavery. The
same researches, observations and analoeies give,
therefore different result. according as they serve
impartial science or the peculiar institution. Nay
il seems that not only the philosophers themselves
but even the sharpening instruments they use
work diversely in Europe and America. Thus the
micrOtcOpe represents different mnutie as it hap
pens ito he used In Europe or the United
State, On this continent ",he high micro
scOpdal power" used by some of the
high priests of Slavery in Cambridge, Phila-
delphi, Charlcstown and elsewhere, discovers
that {te negro is covered with wool, when the
same high microscopical power in the lens of a
Hsente, the founder Of this science of observation
show9 beyond doubt that the hair Of the white man
and t3at of the negro is Of one and the same kind
The american microscope distOrts or changes the
form iof the cellular tissues Of the muscles, the
epdetmis OF the black; while the microscope
used iby the European ana;omists shows that
black and white tissues are perfectly alike.
On this side Of the Atlantic it is decided that the
pigment darkeniDg the skio of the negro Is spe'
Calty to the African; but Samson, celebrated
microscopic anatomist in Europe, supported un4n-
imousy bs other men of science, demonstrates be-
yond doubt that the dark circle surrounding the
nipple of a woman contains precisely the same
pi.ment which universally colors the skin Of the
negro.
1t would be superfuOus to set forth here how So
eial and political science how legislation and uris-
prudence. how political and domestic economy, are
per, erted when touched by Slavery. Those sub
iects are Of daily familiarity in fact and converse
ton. Every ore knows how, to the cOmprehen-
sion ofthose who love slavery, Ogarchy and tyranny
ere called democracy; and how lawlessness and
d. 6ance of reason, equity and humanity, are set up
a. Justice and law; while the soil is exhaust
I'd and industry impoverished and despised. Slaves
can only be remuneratve when owned in large
numbers and the highest cutureis next to impossi-
bic on overgrown estates of thousands of acres.
Free labor, the expansion Of industry in all direc.
lions based on intellectual development, is styled
in slave trading theories curse; and contraction
under the whip Of mind and body, blessing.
Such is Slavery in practice and theory. 1t raises
q sacrlegious band against the highest powers of
the mind, and stretches on the rack religion, NOR
ais, history and all the cortege of human and bu-
MANNING sciences, to extOrt from them lie for its
own beatifcation.
