ize benighted Africa is to annex that vast CONT
nent to the United States, and let our people re-
duce them to slavery, set them 10 work and thus
develop the resources of Africa. Their lands are
the finest in the world and adapted TO the culture
OF coffee above all other lands. The English,
French and Spanish people are not the people 70
own and direct African laborers-they exercise
too much cruelty. God looks to the people of the
United States to develop the resources of Africa,
and honestly believe he requires us to do that
work. Talk about fibustering and the unlaw

The Africans have forfeted-their country by re-
fusing to labor. If they will not do so of
their own choice, they must be compelled to do
or starve.
The negro will not work without some one to
make him do so. Man is doomed to eatbread in

question of slavery. will no longer make provision
in their wills, or otherwise, for the emancipation
of their negroes, and cast them helpless upon the

Indiana, Illinois and the New England States.
Let them sell their slaves to Southern planters
here and direct the proceeds to be applied to the
opening of new slave States in Africa, where We
may settle down and compel the natives to labor,
thus causing civilization and Christianity to spread
over few millions of its population, and the
moral effect would be irresistible.
