■ 'iird oi' Managers of """in Society respeet- .at, being about to corn* °f 'be object to which nave been lon K directed, they proper and necessary to address '■•ives to the legislative council of their try. 1 hey trust that this object will Ue considered, m itself, of great national im parl mce,k w ill be foundioseparabh connect ed wiui another, vitally affecting the honor and interest of tins nation, and leading, in if consequences, to Me moat desirable re sults. 'Relieving that examination and reflection will shew that such are its connections and endency, they are encouraged to present themselves, and their cause, where they k ,ov that a public measure, having these advantages, cannot fail to receive all the countenance and aid it may require. The last census shews the number of free people of Cdlor or the United States, k their r jid encrease. Supposing them tocncrease in the same ratio, it will appear how large a proportion ot our population will, i„ the course nt even a few years, consist of per sons of that description. . No argument is necessary to shew that this is very far indeed from conslilutin eor ease of our physical strength; nor there be a population, m any country, neu tral as to its effects upon society. The least observation shews that this description of ■rons are not, and cannot be, either use r happy among us ; and many comidc itiuns, which need not he mentioned, prove, ; yi,nd dispute, that it is best, lor all tin ikies interested, that there, should lx- a se- iration; that those who are now free, and use who may Income so hereafter,should ■ provided with the means of attaining to a •iteof respectability and happiness, which, is certain, they have never yet reached, id, therefore, can never be likely to reach, iliis country. Several of the states, deeply interested in i is subject, have already applied to the ge- t.iI government; and, concurring in the cwh of your n s norialists, both from eon- derations of justice towards themselves id humanity to the colored people, have (pressed, to the general government, ihorr ■sire that a country should be procured for iem, in the land of tlieir forefathers, to wliieh hiicIi of them as should choose to avail themselves of the opportunity, might be re moved. It has been the one single object of the Society, which your memorialists re present, to enVet this end. They have made the most cautions and particular enquiries as to the practicability of such a plan, and its prospects of success, both in this country ■ nd in Africa, and they are warranted in lecturing, that there are no difficulties which hey do not confidently expect w ill be easily iveroomc by a moderate exertion of discre- inn and perseverance. In this country, and in almost every part if it, they have found a zealous and dec ided ipprnhution expressed, both in words and leads, by a vast majority of all classes of air citizens ; and this sentiment is continu- ,|y encreasing as the measure becomes norc the sulijx ct of discussion and reflcc- jon. Its importance all admit; and its racticnbility, though dolibled by many, at rst. is daily less questioned. The two last reports of the Society, to Inch your memorialists beg leave to refer, itw the success of their mission to Africa, id the result of tlirir enquiries upon that mtimbif. From these it is manifest, that situation can be readily obtained, fax orn- c to commerce and agriculture, in a hcal- iy and fertile country, and that tlie natives •e well disposed to give every euenurage- icntto the establishment of such a settlo- e,it among them. Thus, it appears, that 1 object of great national concern, already tpressly desired by some ofthc states, and ulv desirable to all, receiving, also, the ap- ■ebation of those upon whom it is more (mediately to operate, is brought within n reach. But this subject derives, perhaps, its chief terest from its connection with a measure hich has, already, to the honor of ourcoim- y, occupied the. deliberations Of the Uou- ess ofthc United States. Your memorialists refer, with pleasure,' the Act, passed at the last session oi Con- ess, supplementary to the Act formerly ssed for the suppression ofthc slave trade. ic means afforded, by the provisions of at act, for the accomplishment of its o'b- :t, are certainly great; but the total extir- tion of this disgraceful trade cannot, per- ps, be expected from any measures which ly alone upon the employment of amari ne force, however considerable. The profits attending it arc so extraordi- ry, that the cupidity of the unprincipled if still be tempted to continue it, as long there is any chance of escaping the vigi- ice of the cruizevs engaged against them, oin the best information your memnrial- s have been able to obtain, of the nature, uses, and course of this trade, and of the jsent situation of the coast of Africa, and i habits and dispositiortftf the natives, they • well assured that the. suppression of the rican slave trade,’ anti thff civifeation of “ natives, are measures of indispensable inertion. Such an opinion has been avowed, many ars ago, by those best acquainted with s subject, and experience has abundantly ifirmed it. The documents and papers which your ■morialists Iwul heretofore the honor of renting to Congress, and those contained the late reports of the Society, prove this sition. Since the establishment of the English tlement at Sierra Leone, the slave trade S been rapidly ceasing upon that part of I coast. Not only the kingdoms in its immediate Ighborliond, but those upon the Sherbro il Uugroo rivers, and others with whom ! people, of that settlement have opened lomraunication, have hcen prevailed upon abandon it, and are turning their attention the ordinary and innocent pursuits ofeivi- &d nations. That the same consequences will result in similar settlements cannot be doubted, hen the natives there see that the Euro-, an commodities, for which they have un accustomed to exchange their follow ings, until vast and fertile regions have he me almost depopulated,can be more casi- and safely obtained by other pursuits, can be believed that they will hesitate to pro- l by the experience ? Nor will the advan ces of civilization be alone exhibited. The. leligion, whose mandate is “peace on earth nd good will towards men, will “doits rrandwill deliver them from the bon- lage ol their miserable superstitions, and lisplay the. same triumphs which it is achiev ing in every land. That such points of settlement would dif fuse their light around the coast, and gradu ally dispel the darkness which has so long enshrouded that continent, would be a rea sonable hope, and would justify the attempt, even if experience had not ascertained its success. Although, therefore, much may ho effected by the vigilant Operations of a well disposed naval force, it is to he feared that much will always remain to be done, until some degree of civilization is attained bv the inhabitants of the coast of Africa.— Tho present measures, therefore, for the sup pression of the slave trade, if unconnected with others for the improvement ofthc na tives, must ha long continued, and the effects' produced by them will be partial, tedious, and uncertain; and the least relaxation of this vigilance will revive it. But those measures,and all others involv ing expense, and labor, may be withdrawn, is soon as these establishments upon the Edast become strong enough to participate in the contest against avarice and inhumani ty, and shall obtain, from tlieir evident ad vantages over the natives, a proper influence among them. And here your memorialists beg leave, respectfully, to suggest tlieir fears that many of the profligate adventurers in. this trade will evade the search of our cruiz- era by their artful contrivances in disguising their national character. We have reason to believe that the slave ships of other na tions assume the flag and character of Ame ricans to evade the search of British cruiz- ers. Is it not, therefore, to be expected that the act lately passed will often lie de feated by American slave ships assuming a foreign flag mid character ? A careful con sideration ot this subject has convinced us that all our efforts will be insufficient to ac complish their purposes, unless some friend ly arrangement can be made among flu- lnn- l-iliinc powers of the world, which shall leave no shelter to those who desi rvr to be considered and treated as the common ene mies of mankind. Whether a permission, under any modifi cation, to certain specified ships, or in cer tain latitudes, to search and maze slave ships under our fiag, such as Great-Brituiu, and other European powers, have mutually giv en to each other, can lie properly granted by our government, we cheerfully li ave to the wisdom mid justice of Congress to de termine. Your memorialists will only ex press their hope and belief, that your delibe rations upon this interesting subject will en able you to discern a way, without any coni- proinitment of our national honor, by w liich our country may be placed among the fore most and .mist efficient asserters of the rights of humanity. But your memorialists humbly consider, that the colonization of Africa offers the most powerful and indis pensable auxiliary to the naans already adopted, lot the extermination of a trade, which is now exciting, in every country, that just indignation, which lias been long since fell and expressed in this. No nation lias it so much in its power to furnish proper settlers for such establish ments as tbc: ; no nation lias so deep an in terest in thus disposing of them. By the law passed at the last session, and before re ferred to, the captives who may lie taken by our ernizers from the slave ships, are to be taken to Africa, and delivered to the custo dy of agents appointed by the President.— There'will then be a scttleincut of captured negroes upon the coast, in consequence of the measures already adopted. Ami it is evidently most important, if not necessary to such a settlement, that the civilized pen-' ile uf color, of this country, whose industry, cnterprize, and knowledge of agriculture, and the arts, would render them most use ful assistants, should he connected with such an establishment. When, therefore, the object of the Colo nization Society is viewed, in connection with that entire suppression of the slave trade, which your memorialists trust it is re solved shall be effected, its importance be comes obvious and extreme. The benefici al consequences resulting from success in such a measure,it is impossible to calculate. To the general cause of humanity, il will af ford the most rich and noble contribution, and for the nation that regards that cause, that employs its power in its behalf, it can not fail to procure a -proportionate rew ard. is by such a course that a nation insures to itseii the protection and favor of the Go vernor of tlv* world. Nor are there want ing views and considerations, arising from our peculiar political institutions, which «oil'd justify the sure expectation of the liiusi signal blessings to uuisdiCS from i|it‘ complishnient of such an object. If one of these consequences shall he gradual, and almost imperceptible,the removal of a nation al evil, which all unite in lamenting, and for which, with the most intense, but hitherto hopeless anxiety, the patriots and statesmen of our country have labored to discover a remedy, who can doubt, that, of all the bles sings we may be permitted to bequeath to our descendants, this will receive the richest tribute of their thanks and veneration ? Your memorialists cannot luneve that such an evil, universally acknowledged and deprecated, iias been irre.movably fixed up on us. Some way will always be opened hy Providence, by which a people., desirous of acting justly and bene volently, may he led to the attainment ofa meritorious object. And they believe, that-of all the. plans, that the most sagacious and 'discerning of our pa triots have, suggested, for effecting what they have so greatly desired, the colonization of Africa, in Use manner proposed, presents the fairest prospects of success. But if it be admitted to he ever so doubtful, whether this happy result shall be the reward of our ex ertions, vet, if great and certain benefits im mediately attend them, why may not others, still greater, follow them ? In a work evidently progessive, who shall assign limits to the good that zeal and per severance shall he permitted to accomplish? Your memorialists beg leave to state, that, having expended considerable funds in pro secuting tlieir inquiries and making prepara tions, tiiey are now about to send out a co lony, ami complete the purchase, already stipulated for with the native kings and chiefs of Sherbro, of a suitable territory for their establishment. The number they art- now enabled to transport and provide for. is but a small proportion of the people of co lor who have expressed tlieir desire to go. And without a larger and more sudden in crease of their funds than can be expected from the voluntary contributions of indiv i duals, their progress must be slow and un certain. They have always flatten'd them selves with the hope, that when it was seen they had surmounted the difficulties of pre paration, k shewn that the means applied to the execution of their design, would lead di rectly and evidently to its accomplishment, they Would be enabled to obtain for it the national countenance and assistance. To this point they have arrived; and they there fore respectfully request, that this interest ing subject may receive the consideration of your honorable body, and that the. Execu tive Department maybe authorized,in such way as may meet your approbation, to ex tend to this abject such pecuniary and other aid, as it may be thought to require and de serve. Your memorialists further request, that the subscribers to the American Coloniza tion Society may be incorporated, by act of Congress, to enable them to act with more efficiency, in carrying on the great and im portant objects of the Society, and to ena ble them, with more economy, to manage the benevolent contributions entrusted to their care. 1 John Mason, I W.

I abb- encouragement to our dome-die manu factures, more certainly and permanency in Hie price of many raw materials will be se cured -and, particularly, that in the article of cotton, those fluctuations and sudden changes will, in a great degree, be guarded against, which have recently been produc tive of such serious and extensive losses to our commercial citizens. TIip following iM»«lerij)t to the first number we present, as it contains some calculations, which from their singularity and striking results, may be deemed worthy of notice. We have heretofore submitted various statements proving the extreme disadvuntage of our intercourse wit!) Great Britain, and other foreign nations in the cotton trade.— IVe now present it in a new point of \ iow. We take the case ofa company of cotton manufacturers in Manchester, commencing with a bale and a half of cotton, nt fifty dol lars per bale, which is the present price— working il up in two months into cotton cloths, at twenty cents per yard; investing the proceeds in cotton; manufacturing this cotton in the same manner; and thus in re gular succession, prosecuting the business, as is usual iri such manufactories. It w ill ex cite astonishment, and appear incredible, but is nevertheless true, that in the space of twenty months they can purchase with the proceeds of tile hale and a half, the. whole of the exports of the United States. We allow 50 lbs. per bale for waste ; let the proceeds oT the half bale go for (lie payment of wages ; and assume four yards of cloth, nt 20 cents per yard, as the pro duct of each pound of cotton. Let it be observed, that 20 -cents is a low average. IVe receive cambrics and muslins as high us a dollar and a half per yard.

From the slit gust a Advertiser. The society in Pennsylvania for the pro motion and encouragement of national in dustry, have. recently commenced a new se- ics of addresses to the inhabitants of the U. States, in which many forcible augments mid striking calculations are presented, tending to exhibit the important connexion between the national prosperity mid the encourage ment of domestic manufactures; k to shew, in a satisfactory manner, that the present p< cuuiary embarrassment of the country has in a great measure arisen from such a disre gard 4o tliis obvious k important connexion, that foreign nations have in a great degree monopolized those profits which ought to have increased the activity and added to the wealth of our citizens. The essays are in ge neral too long to lie republished entire in our paper. Some ul the calculations we may occasionally give, in which the position is endeavored to be maintained, tknt Ivy suit- Thissum, at the present prices of oiir sta ples, w ould probably purchase the w hole of the exports ofthc United States.
