]. The Republic Of Hay! I" 'rea'eo oy e'ery
European state--even BY France, from whom 'ne
u,e.te6 her independer ce in fair fgbt-as an 'qusl
and independent over, whose good vii she de-
sire. to conciste and preserve, whose trade she
seeks to secure. This country alone refuses TO
acknou ledge the existence Of and MAINTAIN diPlo-
mstic relations with sister republ'c-the Old
.st ntst 10 our own. In America-slmply because
her people are negroes.
II. The Republic Of Liberia was founded and Is
t. day mainly peopled and wcolly governed by
natiy es of and emigrants from this country. It's
trade. Ike that of Hayti, is already valuable and
steadily increasing; but it is compelled TO desert
our ports and seek those of Great Britain by tue
refusal of our Executive to acknowledge its indie
pepdence and maintain diplomatic relations With
i,s Government, because its people are negroes.
iii. Natives and lifelong residents of our couu-
try who have education, culture, character, prob-
nv fortune, and ,Ocial consideration in other laods
ak our Government to give them passports
enabling them to travel in foreign climes, and are
fatty refused-because they are negroes.
w. They take passage in British steamships to
cross the Atlantic, and are denied the common
privileges of decently behaving humao beings. for
which thes have contracted and p.id-not that the
owners or managers of those vessels choose to
make this odlous and unjust observation-disclosures
that their British or other European passengers
insist Oh it-but simply that The american pssssn
gers " ill have t-because these prescribed fellow
passengers are negroes.
V. Every where it is insisted that negroes-no
matter how educated, how Intellectual, how DIS
tDguisbed for moral worth and good worbs-must
be prescribed aud hunted from all association on
terms of equality with White Americans-becauss
they are negroes
in full view of these notorious, undcnable
facts, Statistical Congress is assembled in Lon.
don, and MIR. George NJ. Dallas, our Minister Ex
traordna'y at the British Court, sees fit to attend
its sitting. Lord BIougham, British peer and
one of the most emnently useful and honored men
of his time, also attends. So does one Mr.
. Delany, q fellow Pennsylvania with Mr..
Dallas, worthy and esteemed, but who had
the mis- fortune to be born of the least desr
able color. Lord Brougham, seeing these two
i'PicsOht"tfco III JuAtoPV'i'iohS "ue "Oio'hiS'
with most enlightened Europeans, that our ma
tioDal negrophobia is a compound of prejudice and
hypocrisy begotten by Slavery, could not resist
the temptation to call Mr.. Dallas's attention to the
fact that one of his fellow members was negro.
Tie allusion was of course jOcular, and, if it
stung, Slavery and American humbug, not Lord
B,ougham, gave it all its point. 1t was just and
timely rebuke to our National inconsistency lib
crafty and hypocrisy. That it was " difficult for
T" Mr.. Dallas properly to notice it, we fully rea-
lie. That " silence" was his best possible re-
source is very certain. IL that portion of our
American Press which synpathizes with him in
his embarrassment had had like conception Of
the wisdom of saying nothing, when there is really
nothing TO say, il would have been better for
Dir. Dallas and for the reputation of our country.
