JAMES RANKEN, Adminflrator\ JJath, a8tb June, 1S20. *6t£ FOR THE KISGSTOX CHRONICLE. LETTER 14. To ROBERT JVJLSII> Esq. Sir, I have arrived at the last section of your dignified appeal, and should have wlUinglj rested the question of theSlave trade oti the decision of Congress last w inter, and been content to drop a word of admiration on the pure morality of ) our Statesmen, which now stands re¬ corded uuder a defiuitionof minutes and degrees of latitude, had not this conclu¬ ding portion of your work exhibited a degree of malignity which surpasses ail that has gone before it. Here it h proper to premise that what¬ ever energy or superiority of intellect was found in the Colonies before their rebellion and separation from Great Britain, belongs nut to you as & nation, but to the Parent State, and all your whining about the infancy and youth of North America is ridiculous and not founded on fact. The Colonies, as to the general progress of knowledge, and ac¬ quaintance with the arts of life, had nei¬ ther infancy nor youth. Whatever was known in Englaud was carried to them tn a itf'w iiiuiiui&: uuuiitig<*u aifeimtfte" be more fallacious than the lamentations repeated, even to nauseoasness, that A- Doerica, being still young, cannot be ex¬ pected to do this or that or the ether. We claim all the Americans of reputa¬ tion before the commencement of the Rebellion, and we most willingly relin¬ quish all right and title to those by whose machinations it was fomented, and whose true histories, if plrced beside Colonel Turnbull's picture, would present one of the most disgusting contrasts that has ever met the eye of the Philosophic en¬ quirer. What discoverieshaveyou made in the Arts and Sciences, except that of applying Geography to the admeasure- meat of morality ? It appears that the Edinburgh Revievr- ers had praised Great Britain for abol¬ ishing the Slave trade. You stoutly de¬ ny that she deserves any credit, for in¬ stead of being the first to annul this ne¬ farious traffic she was behind Denmark and the United States. To prove this extraordinary assertion you quote an act of Congress of 1794, v inch, according to your account, inter¬ dicted this trade to yourCountrymen thir¬ teen years before Great Britain passed ber abolitionlaw. But when the American Act is examined, even by the scanty portioQ which you condescend to furnish, we find (hat instead of abolishing the trade it secures to your country the carrying ol the Slavt* 111 uatite S&ipfe You quote next a law passed in 1798, which prohibits the importation of slaves into the Mississippi territory, a country which had no sea port, and from which you were excluded by water communi¬ cation. In 1800 you threaten (by a law) with punishment any oneof your citizens found serving on board Foreign ships employed in the slave trade, and this not for the purpose of diminishing the traf¬ fic, but that the skilfulness of your Ma¬ riners might be exerted exclusively in your own vessels. In 1803, to please the State of Massachusetts, a law was passed prohibiting the Masters of vessels from bringing Slaves into the Ports of any State u hose laws had forbidden their importation. In March 1807, a law was passed prohibiting the Slave trade gene¬ rally, after the 1st January, 1808, which has been scarcely noticed by your coun¬ trymen, and representations are made even now of the breach of the law by the introduction of slaves immediately from Africa. Besides it evidently appears, from your recent law of March 1819, that no measures whatever had been ta* ken to enforce the abolitionlaw of 1807. It is indeed notorious that this law had no greater effect in checking the Slave trade than your laws agaiust piracy, aud nothing but the firm and even menacing representations of foreign powers forced your attention to eitlier. When to all this we acid the speeches of your leadings men last wititer, and the law passed for extending slavery, we behold the true disposition of your Government on this great question. After giving a dull of distorted aod most disingenuous history of the aboli¬ tion of the Slave trade in England, you quote, in au evil hour, largely from Dr. Thorpe, whose character is well known, aud whose motives for interferingin this [question are too evident to allow hita any credit. You make large extracts from the R41 4
