The Prerbytery LclIeve that the most serious mis-
representations Of the views Of our Church have been
extensively circulated Of late and nor, especially
within few months past. The declarations Of former
AsCuble- in reference 60 the multiplied and gricvpus
evils Of The System. and the importsnce OF cfrciing
' n speedily a. possible. the complete abolition oi
Slavery" have it j. thought, been entirely dlsre-
larded il not utterly ret az nOught, by not few oil
our communion. These tc-tim0nics have been repre-
scented n. nothing better than stutfcd abstracti0Hs
expressed in Delphc words and admitting an inter-
probation suited to the peculiar dverstes OF different
puiions Of the Church.
Contrary tC the doctrine long and so consistently
maintained by several General Asse mohe.. tiiat
Slavery il inconsistent both with the dictates OF
humanity aud religion; that il creates paradox IN
the moral system is "a gross violation OF Tue most
precious and sacred rights Of human nature; IL NJ
te,ly inconsistent with the law Of God u totally
irreconciIabe with the spirit ana principles OF tae
C:os,,e, Of Christ" il "intrDscaly an unrighteous
and oppressiye system" and must, therefore be
eaided and tn sted "a blot on our holy religion.
10 be effaced as speedily M possible; it has been
unbluehingly maintained that the system Of Ameri-
can slavery is to be accepted la that the rela
on Of master and slave il sanctioned by the Bible"
that il belongs to the same category a. those Of hus
band and wife parent and child" that it IL ordained
Of God and that the system being sanctioned by the
Scriptures is to be justified and sustained, night
and proper as well as legal. The master i. taught.
from the pulpit and the press. that he is to regard
himselfa holding from God this high power. and
deriving, not from the municipal law alone, but
from the Bible, his right to be master"
The Presbytery have been exceedingly panied to
find that such views advocated on the floor Of the
Assembly, as well as in lower judcatones; and
that none Of our Southern Presbyteries have taken
any steps whatever to rebuke or correct these msrep
resenatOns, by their ministers and members, OF the
true doctrine Of the Church. They ask the General
Assembly, therefore, about to convene at Cleveland
o.. to make definite expression Of their views
and 10 take such decided action in regard to this whole
subject, az to take away the reprOach thus brought
upon us and show effectuay to all the world ter
dirapprobation Of the whole system Of American
Slavery.
