THE NATIONAL ERA: WASHINGTON D. C., JANUARY

who once kindled it up, and caused it to overflow
many parts of the Island, has power to cause
1t again to throw out torrents of liquid fire to pour
themselves upon the whole Island, and destroy
our fruitful fields and our pleasant habitations,
our school-houses and houses of worship. Still,
we do not mean to borrow trouble. God reigns.
Nothing can transpire without his agency. We
are his servants. We labor in building up his
kingdom. While He has aught for us do, He
can and will preserve us. In Him will we trust,
and not be afraid. Yours, J. s. GREEN.
