mind, lhat the rrovernmcnt If

of the republic have some lime ago come to the resolution not to pay the passage from foreign parts to Hayti, of those who have a right by their birth, to become IIaytiar,5. This is in order to prevent such persons from falling into the mistaken notion that the nation which has resolved to pay their passage is so desirous of augmenting its population, ihat n will also provide for them when arrived here, sooner than see them quit the country such persons entertaining this unreasonable expectation, have refused to labour for an honest livelihood, alledging that the government having brot them oer, is bound to support them in idleness, or allow them to go elsewhere, and as the laws of the country cannot controul the citizens from leaving it when they please the object of rendering these men happy at Hayti, has entirely failed a repetition

of this practice must be catelully avoid

ed. Hayti is always ready to receive with

open arms such pi her adopted sons who may dcs'uc to breathe the pure air of liberty, and enjoy the advantages of her humane laws, whose basis is founded on individual liberty and equality oK rights it is lor them to seek the means to arrive at the promised land, and those who are determined to enjoy it will not be at a loss to find the means. Many landholders arc desirous of cultivating their lands mechanics are in want of various sorts of workmen the republic possesses immense tracts of land which lay useless for want of hands to improve them. Therefore such of the descendants of Africans who are in Illinois, and are desirous of emancipating themselves fiom the odious piejudices to "which they are now victims, may rely that they can well employ their lime to advantagc by devoting themselves to the culture of lands, or by .working at their trades, they will soon acquire a handsome living. To transport themselves to this country they have only to arrange with the captains of vessels for their passage, in

the same way as is practised by some of

the Irish, Germans. U.C. who emigrate from Europe to the U. States. On arriving in our ports there will be found persons ready and willing to pay the captains for their passage on condition that such passengers engage to work a certain time in return as an equivalent for such advances ; and when they have faithfully served their time, and proved by their conduct that they are useful citizens to the republic, those who will have gained the means to commence farming on their own account, can have grants of land from the

government on very advantageous terms,

and by their labour acquire an estate for

themselvas and their children. In this

country farming gives such a profitable

result, that an industrious labourer is cer

tain of ample means of subsisiance, can

cloathe himself well, Sc after three years

labour, he may rely on a clear revenue of

at least g5() per annum. H E. has informed you, sir, that he will take under his own charge fifty persons who will agree to work on shares at his plantations, and in this case he will pay thir passage. I vill make a similar arrangement for some, and I have no doubt if 500 persons arrive with the intention of labouring tin y "will immediately find employment without any difficulty. This is all the governlv c it can possibly do to ensure tl.e happilu ss of those unfortunate people, who, upon their arrival will have no other cares or diflitulties in becoming citizens, than to cultivate the earth under the protection of laws as liberal as they are equitablc. The friends of humanity, philanthropists ought to aid them in their endeavours to reach this asylum, and it will be the more easy to eiTect this object as the owners of ships are always lad of employment for their vessels, and the merchants are continually making remi' tanres to buy cargoes, no doubt some o' them may be induced to advance the pas.ige money to the Africans to restore them to their country, particularly as they will find means to be reimbursed Vcr their advances to advantage I have the honor to subset ibc myself with much consideration, r. ixdiXAc " Slaves suddenly emancipated, fall a prey to their own idle habits, or to the cupidity of the worthless 'part of the white population by wl.ich they ate surrounded If their masters were to emancipate them in the republic ot Hayti, they would confer a real benefit on the poor objects themselves and spare the neighbouring free states fiom the pest of a population which of right belongs not to them; of beings brought up in all the deplorable
