"out of from 1900 to 10000 coonis,s who
have been carried thitherb the Colonial
ton Society, you cant find 10000 Of them
and their descendants to-day. Large num-
bers of them were of mixed blood. Mu-
lattocs who 60 to Africa die like rotten shcap;
the few children they have rarely reach ma
turity, and the blacks of unmXed blood
fare but little better" The reasons for the
failure Of the colony, established in 1918,
he gives as follows: "The immigrants to
Liberia were of a very inferior class, mostly
manumitted slaves, cncrvated by the vices
of the institution of slavery inferior in fact,
in mental, moral and physical stamina to
their pagan ancestors. Nne-tenths of all
sent from this country were grossly igno.
rant, totally illtcrate and without moral or
religious culture. Itwasa mass of mingled
ignorance and immortality. The forced la.
