respondent Of the N. O. Picayune says:
Advices lately received from Liberia give
us some curious revelations in regard to
The slave trading propensities of some Of
the cant philanthropical nations of Europe.
france, II now seems, wants few more
black apprentices for her South American
colonies, and has sent an agent, "in behalf
OF His Imperial Majesty" TO pick them up
along the coast Of Guinea.
The British Government undertook n
like emigration movement in 1853, and
President Roberts, of Liberia, protested
against il rs being only ,ke slave.trade un.
der another form. This public announce
ment of the difference between England's
practice and England's theories caused her
to deslst on that SIDE ani gave new i'm
petus to the Coolie slave trade. The Presi.
dent of Liberia now publicly protests against,
the trading schemes of the French philau
throplsts, and we wait TO see the result.
The manner of procuring free labor ap.
prentices on the Coast cf Guinea is thus
set forth:

/ when the volunteer receives his seven
French dollars he may not keep them for

head man who distributes a part among
the leading men of the tribe, aud keeps the
rest himself. The lnborers are afraid tha,
the head men will compel them to voun.

Government for projections; and hence this
! proclamation"
These proceedings of lheB ritish Govern.
mcnt in S53, aud the French in 1856, are
not little curious in view of the late an
nouncement that Spain has consented tt
the same measures for introducing 10000
negro apprentices into Cuba. Spain could
not do this without the consent of her dear
allies England and France, and Eugland
aud France cannot be supposed to deny lc
! Spain that which one wished TO DO iI' S53

the deed was foul, these great phlanihro
pists withdrew at once; but Spain must ap

So probably she will he allowed TO 90 on
upon her own responsibility to meet the
contumely of the world. 1t is worthy o
notice in these Humanitarian times that the
Coolie slave trade in the Pacific, and the

upon scale that laughs 20 scorn all the
statistics Of the old fashioned slave trad,
