Take them back; I am faithful to my brethren and my God. With the scenes of Anglo-Saxon tyranny and baseness, contrasts as an Oasis, this of Afric-American magnanimity. While the name and memory of Napoleon Bonaparte will be execrated, ever venerated will be those of TOUSSAINT L'OUVERTURE.

The George Washington of St. Domingo, gave union, energy, and a wise constitution, to his countrymen. By his bravery he repelled every foe, and put an end to civil and insurrectionary wars. When Bonaparte sent an immense armament, in 1802, to bring the people back to the old yoke, he was firmly seated in their affections, and relying in him, they bid defiance to their invaders.

Seven years previous to this, Toussaint sent his sons, to Paris for education. They were put under the care of a tutor, named Coisnon. Bonaparte used this man as a tool to prepare the boys for his purpose. The tutor and his charge having been sent out with Le Clerc, Coisnon wrote saying, "the first Consul sends by me your two sons, and certain important despatches. Your sons will be with you to-morrow, provided you will give me your word that in the result of your not complying with the wishes of the first Consul, they shall be safely returned with me to the Cape." Toussaint gave his word, and, oa the morrow, the boys, accompanied by Coisnon, were with their fond parents. Toussaint had now a choice of three things. He might break his word and keep his sons; he might comply with the wishes of Bonaparte and keep them; or he might send them back. He would neither break his word, nor sell his country, and therefore chose to send them back.

THE LAST SCENE IN BRITISH EMANCIPATION.

"After the 1st, Aug. 1834, SLAVERY shall be and is hereby utterly and forever abolished and declared unlawful throughout the BRITISH colonies, plantations, and possessions abroad." Act, 3d and 4th, Wil liam IV.

This noble Act was trammelled with an apprenticeship (to slavery to prepare its victims for freedom!) Antigua and Bermuda, declined the proffered continuation, with, of course, the happiest results. The Legislatures of Jamaica, Barbadoes, St. Vincent, St. Kitts, and the West Indies generally, have done likewise and on Aug. 1, 1838, threefourths of a million of human beings were, by law, restored to their birth-right by Nature.
