THE RRPuDLIo or LipFRIA.--Bciween the
nbolitionists who dislike the Colonisation So
ciely because it absorbs portion Of the anti-
slavery philanthropy which they think should
be concentrated on their own organization the
southern fre-eaters, who despse Liberia be-
cause it is demonstrating the power of selfsup-
port aud sefgovernment in the blacks, and The
slave traders, who hate the COLONY because it
interposcs serious obstacles to their wretched
traffic, the little negro republic on the western
coast Of Africa is exposed to constant assaults.
Not long ago il was charged with completely
in the French slave trade, but that charge has
been thoroughly refuted More recently the
officers Of our African squadron have been re-
presenting the republic as 10 a state of hope
less decay the negroes degenerating towards
barbarsm, and that the revival Of the slave
trade Is the only hope Of Liberia and Of Africa.
Bishop Potter Of Pennsylvania disturbed Ivy
some Of these staemcments, made by naval
officers in his presence wrote letter to Rev.
Thomus A. Pinkney, colored man whom he
had ordained as a missionary to Africa, now in
4 this country, after four years residence in Ii
beria and Mr.. Pinckney makes the following
statements in lis reply TO the bishop;
"Believe me, sir, it is libel upon that strug-
ling colony to say that il is rctrograding, and
that so fast that the revival of the slave trade
would be II blessing to it. have to say on thi;
point that the detestable slave trade as it is now
carried on in different parts of the west coast o
I Africa, though not in any part OF Liberia, IS .
blight and a curse, aud its greatest drawback
1t prevents the natl ,es from developing the nat
ural resources Of the country and engaging in
the legitimate trade which would be productive
of great prosperity to the inhabitants thereof
Aud we have no reason 10 expect that any greai
degree Of progress in civilization can be made
on the west coast of Africa until the abominablC
slave trade is abolished. And as that is a mat
ter which seems TO be exceedingly problensti
n cal, the future Of Arica is yet quito becouded.
