WE aim to overthrow SLAVERY in this country, for the following among other reasons: Because the subjects of it are regarded and treated as cattle--as property, instead of rational, immortal beings. Because it leaves more than two millions of men, women and children without any protection for their persons. Because it is altogether and absolutely a system of adultry, prostitution, cruelty and theft. because it is contrary to the laws of God. Because it necessarily makes the oppressor and the oppressed mutual enemies, breeds insurrections, multiplies crimes, weakens the bonds of society, and jeopards the lives, happiness and interests of all parties. Because it retards the prosperity of the nation impoverishes those who uphold it, dishonors the American name, and exposes our land to the severest judgments of Heaven. The Liberator is printed on . supor royal sheet, on every Saturday, in Boston, at $2 00, paid in advance 2 25 at the end of six months or $2 50 at the end of the year.

Almost every na tion now existing in the world has, in turn, possessed a preponderating pow er, acquired by force of arms, though orne of them are now feeble. Among the latter we may mention the Danes. Swedes, Spaniards, Portuguese and Dutch. The Portuguese once mairtained as their right, exclusively, the trade to India by the way of Cape Good Hope, and the Dutch afterwards restrained the British trade in that direction. In the lGth century the British po r o-as by no means paramount.
