OenO your Dill Dut no more papers.


Here the poet stops, and leaves US in obscurity,
upon the subject of gass light.


The last number we issued previous to recev.
ing the above, was No. =, but we presume the
one alluded to was No. 6, in which we expressed
our opinion that the duty. of shareholders was to
emancipate their slaves as fast as they could make
provisions fer them. Now, it is well known that
in many Of the slave states, the laws forbid eman-
cipaton within their borders, and therefore it is
absolutely necessary to make some. provision for
emancipatng them out of such states But ac-
cording to the doctrine of immediate emancipation
as we see it explained in some papers, the master
need make no provision for their safety, but re-
gardless of law, hberate their slaves on the spot.
In expressing ourselves as we~did upon the sub
Ject, we saw nothing at war with the laws of ma
ture the spirit of humanity, or the principles of
abolitionism. If we consider the laws which ma
lures God has established for the government of
the universe, we find that order, harmony and
lmmutablty very happily adapt them to the.
constitution and wants of man, and for the illus
tration of the justice and benevolence of which;
we refer our readers to Combe on the Constitu-
ton, page 29O-299


According to the laws of nature we receive the
light and heat of the sun in just such propor-
tions as our natures will bear, without their be-
coming source of misery and oppression to us,
and IN the same manner vegetation receives its
vivfying and fructifying Influence thus also the
rain descends-the. seasons revolve-the earth
yields her increase and the heat and cold approach
and retire, dfusng their healthful and felicitous
influence throughout creation. But suppose the
laws of nature revoked and others dispensed, ac-
cording to the rules. of immedateism and without
any alteration in the constitution of nature. Do
we not perceive that dissolution and arrangement
would prevail throughout all the kingdoms of ma
ture ? Thus we discover that an omniscient be-
ing has adapted the laws of nature to the happi-
ness and comfort of man.


Or what does the sentiment in question contain
that is opposed to the spirit of humanity Ger
tainly humanity not only urges US to exercise
sympathy towards the wretehed, bat to compass
sionate and ameliorae their condition as soon as
possible, and in a manner that is consonant to our
feelings and the best interests of the unfortuate.
But to proceed farther than what would serve to
advance the happiness of those toward whom our
sympathy flows, might not only prove .detriment-
al, butserve to avert the good which we would
wish to accomplish; and such, we believe. would
be the effect of immediate emancipation, without
previous provision for the welfare, happiness and
subsistence of the emancipated aa
