They have denounced the ruler who feared the influence

appear legislators attempting to do by ndirec

probation Of the services OF tha Press by voting that

the mechanical skill that mouds them into SEN

may be difficult for editors to supply themselves with
substitutes in the army, and far more difficult to get
proper substitutes for the editorial sauctum.
We truss that the Gvuse Of Representatives seeing
that the editor of well regulated journal be vastly
more useful in plying his vocation old Butlel
would say than IN the army, will perfect the work which

Ny DEAR SIR assent 10 neither the justice nor the
wisdom of colonzng the free colored people in Central
America or elsewhere out Of the United States. The
American government could fer better employ the en-
eges of this people by stimulating their friendship for
the country end giving them opportunity, in COM
mon with Others to protect and defend its institutions
But not to discuss with you the policy Of this
colonization scheme. The power and responsibility for
the measure belong alike to the government. Opinion
is yeurs-necessity ours. 1t is hard alternative To
see my children useFuy and happily settled in this the
land of their birth ard ancestors has been the hope and
ambition of my manhood but events stronger than
any power can oppose to them have convinced my
that the chances here all against him. and he de-
sires to join your colony and perhaps younger broth

Der you and to observe with pleasure and gratitude
