Our first proposition was : That the Revival of the African Slave Trade willresult in immeasurable benefit to Africa.If it were possible that slavery should be a good thing to the white man, but a bad thing to the black man, we would not be found among the defenders of the institution. No possible combination of circumstances can make it right to seek an advantage for one race of men, at the expense of another race.Nor- would we urge the adoption of our scheme upon the citizens of the South if we were not firm in the belief that the Slave Trade is the surest—nay, the only means of raising the inliabi tants of Africa from their present deplorable condition, to civilization andChristianity.
