months without denouncing slavery, must
be college learned, money called, and devil
sent" One of the speakers on this reso-
luton, Mr.. Mars, was, during his remarks,
interrupted by the President, who told him
that he was wandering from the subject
under discussion. Mr. Mars remarked that
he liked freedom among black men as well
as white. The President replied that true
freedom consisted in its exercise without
infringing on the rights of others.
Several additional resolutions were
adopted, one of which expressed sympathy
for the "poor Indian"
The Finance Committee were instructed
to pay the expenses out of the funds, and
to place the remainder in the hands of the
Publishing Committee to defray the ex-
penses Of publishing the minutes of the
Convention.
Miss Harriet Garrison was introduced
as woman who had done great deal in

is the case with too many of our people,
has not had the privilege of being edu-
Gated, and consequently was not so pol

however, listened to with interest
Rev. Mr.. Smith, of New Bedford, and
another, rose simultaneously, and ques-
ton was raised as to who had the floor.
1t was decided in favor of Mr.. Smith.
MIR. Remond next took the floor, and ex-
pressed regret that any hard feeling should
be indulged, or any impression should go
out that there were hostile feelings in the
| Convention. He intended to deal on the
question of civilization honorably and
gentlemanly, and he should cooperate
with others in carrying on the great work
of improving the condition of the colored
| race in this country.
Mr.. Wetson, of ST. Johns, n. B., and
Mr.. Downing, followed in some interesting
| remarks.
The resolutions denouncing the Colo
,nization movement were adopted.
A vote of thanks was passed to Mr..
Downing, the President, for his courteous
manner in discharging the duties devolv-
ing upon him as presiding officer. A ban
quet was also rendered him by the ladies'
A banquet was also rendered to Mr.. Re
mond
A vote of thanks was passed to the la
dies, and the Convention then adjourned

are to be taken as the general type Of their
free colored citizens, then I may say they
are not far behind their brethren of White
America.
The ruin of Jamaica was caused by abb
sent proprietors entrusting their valuable
properties to the care of needy, and some
times ignorant, attorneys and overseers.
The luxuries of London life were all and
all to the proprietors, and as long as their
estates could afford them to enjoy it, they
cared very little how things were managed.
The emancipation stopped this, and the
adyenturers who had them in charge, hav-
ing no longer the immense supplies of their
masters to revel in, and the resources from
the tolls of their slaves cut off from them,
neglected and sunk the properties-repre-
sented them as being unfit for future cul-
ture, and, on their being put up at public
auction, purchased them themselves. Not
having means to pay the necessary labor,
is it to be surprised at that mortgage on
them should follow? This has been the
shle cause of Jamaica's ruin-not the
emancipation, but absent proprietors and
shamefully dishonest managers.
In conclusion l must say, the writer of
that article has either written from igno-
rance of the matter, or prejudice. His
ideas of the colored class of the British
West Indies, are as void of space and
light as the dingy office in which he penned
them. ! would also say to him, +" Render
unto Caesar the things that are Caesars, and
unto God the things that are Gods"
Yours faithfully, A WEST INDIAN.
