Poor Africa's deplorable condition under
the rum curse is darker than when the steal
ing OF millions OF its people caused Living
stone to call it the open sore of the world
HUNDRED steamships that sail from Euro
pean and English ports to the west, south,
and east coasts, carry a principal cargo of
rum and gin. Hamburg alone, by two lines
of steamers, exported to Africa 200. 600 tuns
of rum last year; and many other cities, in
Guiding our own Boston, are engaged in the
nefarious business of turning n Mississippi

So far as the American expectation of rum

session, should provide by appropriate legis-
