Origin of SlaYorV.

Mr.. Bancroft in the FIRST volume Of biz history
of the United Sa'es, gives an account ol the ear.
~ traffic of the Europeans in slaves. In the mid.
die oges the henetInus purr1 1ascd white men,
Christians and others and solrthem 10 the Sara
Gems in Sicily and Spuin. IL England the Auglo-
Saxon nobility sold their servants slaves to tor
egners. The Portuguese first imported negro
sllyes from western Africa into Europe in l442
Spain engag, d in the traffic, and negro slaves
abounded in somn places Of that kingdom Alter
America wns discovered the Indians Of lIispanioa
were imported into Spain and made slaves. The
Spnniards visited the coast of North America and
kidnapped thousands OF the Indians, whom they
transported into slavery in Europe and the West

Americans aud sent them into Spain, that they
might be publicly sold at Seville. The practice Of
selling North Amerc n Indians into bondage con.
tinued two centuries. Negro slavery was first in
troduced into America by Spanish Shareholders
who emigiated with their negroes. a royal edict
of Spain authorized negro slavery in America in
1918. King Ferdinand sent from Seville fifty
slaves to labor in the mines. In 1881 the direct
traffic in slaves between Africa and Ilispaniohs
was enjoyed by royal ordinance. Las Casas, who
