ORIGIN OF SLAVERY.

Mr.. Bancroft, in the first volume of hi
History of the United States, gives an ac-
countsof the early traffic of Europeans ii
slaves. In the middle ages, the Venit;ari,
! purchased white men, Christians and 9th
er<, and sold them to the Saracens ii
Sicily and Spain. la England, The Ar
! glo-Saxoii nobility sold their servants as
slave to foreigners. The Portuguese first
imported negro slaves from western Africa
into Europe in l442. Spain soon engaged
in the traffic, and negro slaves abodnded
in some parts Of that kingdom.
| After America was disco vered. the In
dians of Hispaniola were imported into
Spain and made slaves. The Spaniard,
visited the coast of North America ard
kidnapped thousands of Indians, whom
they transported into slavery in Europe
and the West Indies.
Columbus hishselfki'lnapped five hundred
native Americans, and sent them into
Spain, that they might be publicly sold at
