But this is not all Would that 1t were-would that
we could find one verdant spot, one smiling oasis
in this repuIsively barren Sahara of wild and gloomy

sum and substance of the doctrine of radical abolition
compressed within brief compass.

who are comfortably provided for in the g Sunny
South one would suppose they took special pains to
elevate and render happy those free Africans that
hibernate in their rigid ATTITUDES. But do they? If
abolition papers are to be believed, the condition Of
the free negroes North is SUCH more than half the
time that it would be Cons mercy, a blessing OF

The masses Of Northern free negroes, well as scores
of thousands Of white people, alternating be-
tween death by starvation death by cold Freezing
to death is no uncommon occurrence
But the religious condition of Northern negroes is
still worse-stil more disreputable to these pseudo
philanthropists. This fact is exemplfed in the fol

charity and sober sense of the clergy of the Northern
Methodist Church, made by the editor of the Nash
