AS it exists at the present time, is SIM because it
not only ensaves the body bat it enslaves the
mind also, for the slave has not the privileges of
education, the only means calculated to improve
the mind. Not only this, but it is in direct oppo-
sition to the command Of the Almighty God. If
man be found stealing any of his brethren, and
make merchandise of them or selleth them, then
that thief shall be put to death, Deut xiv /. 1t
was never so ordained by the Supreme Being
that man should serve man contrary to his will.
Hark What does-he say Thou shalt not de-
liver to his master the servant that escapes from
his master unto thee; he shall dwell with thee,
even among you in that place which he shall
choose, in one of the gates where it lilzeth him
best, thou shalt not Cypress him, Deut vxiii. Is
and 10. Slavery is sin, because 1t respects per-
sons in judgment. Ye shall not respect persons in
Judgment, but We shall hear the small as we'll as
the great, for the judgment is Gods, Deut. i. ii.
Slavery has hardened mans heart against all that
is honest and good. When God created man he
was hut a little lower than the angels in heaven.
He placed him on the earth and gave him domin-
ION over all the beasts the field and birds of the
air. Man was the image of God. But what has
maadone9 He has rebelled against God and his
.brother. He has placed his brother on the level
with the beasts over the which God made him
ruler. Ah, well might the noble minded Jeffer-
son exclaim, when speaking. 81 trem-
BILE for my country when reflect that God is
iust and that his justice cannot sleep forever -
