few days previous to my visit; one chief submitted to the arbitration of Gov. BUCHANAN, though contrary to his own idea of right and justice, and paid the fine imposed upon him."

Capt. IRVING, in a letter to Dr. HODGKIN, August 3, 1840, observes: "You ask me if they aid in the slave trade: I answer you no! and I am sure the colonists would feel much hurt should they know such a question could possibly arise in England. In my humble opinion it is the best and safest plan for the extinction of the slave trade and the civilization of Africa, for it is a well kown fact that wherever their flag flies it is an eyesore to slave dealers."

And Capt HERBERT writes to the same philanthropic gentlemen: "with regard to the present state of slave taking in the Colony of Liberia, I have never known one instance of a slave being owned or disposed of by a colonist. On the contrary I have known them to render great facility to our cruisers there in taking those vessels employed in that nefarious traffic, by obtaining from the natives of the different slave factories information of the time these vessels would sail with their cargoes. I could name various instances of their aversion to slavery which have come under my own eyes; I will here name one of late date. In November last, while I was trading at Edina, there came into the Cove two Spanish vessels, evidently slavers, seeking for British arms, amunition and clothes, for which they would have given specie; yet there was not one colonist to be found who would trade with them, notwithstanding the extensive profit which could have been made."

Trusting that these authorities will establish the just claims of these interesting people to our confidence and regard, relieve Colonizationists from the obloquy so unjustly heaped upon them by the anti-slavery party, and prevent the unhappy alienation so likely to be engendered between the sister countries by their attacks, I am yours, &c.,
