XiaeeuseuS. Fsn Ae Greeacius MoaUtaiar SLAVERY. - The relation of master and servant has subsisted among the buman famtiy from an early period of the world; and Noah, by the spirit of prophecy. foretold that Uainan should be servant of servants unto bis brethren, and the decree of Heaven i cannot be disannulled. The Persians, the Greeks, the Roman, the Jews. and otber niations of antiquity had their slaves, and which they obtained by conquest. or par- 1 ebased wuth their muoncy, or they were i born in their houses; anal modern ntions, speh as the English. the French and the Spaniards have supplied their Colonies With slaves; and the English refused to I discontinue the trafie, when requested by I her Colonies, while the trade was profita ble ror her commerce; and by oppression i sod taxation the majority of her own sub- i jects are redaced to a state bordering on I starvation. Millions of br oppressed I subjects in India are in a worse situation - than the slaves in t he United States. yet a.he would now join with the enemies of our institutions in disturbing the peace aud I harmony of our Governmetnt. I The Governor of the world has made i distitiction between the families of the earth. The Caucain,. or white racc, is i evi.deatly at the head of the humanlfamily. I ,rite structute of their bodies and .ner:y of their miids places them above the oth cr raees of men. Tiae Seriptures of truth have sanctionid the practice and prescribed rules for the government of master and servant. . brallfat'a thc "father of the faithful," atino wbose boon Lazarus was carried, had utany servants, and he was eonfederie esith Manare the Amorite, and his two brnhers, Eschol and Ater. Genesis xiv: 1 11, And be armed his trained servants, eori in his own house, three huntred and tigbeeti, and smote Chedorlaoner anil the Kintps that were with him, who had smihutli Sodom, a) landa carried off Lot as a prisoner; and if he bad 318 servants. horn in his own hionte, a'ale to go forth to war, the woien and children andl thoe unable, nvontld probably exceed one thon stand. Abrahan did tnt interfere with the ri:hts of his confederates, as the enceie of our insitunions would n illiingiy do with the property of the Southern 4taten. Gene-is xvi: 9: "And the Angel of the Lard said onto Hagar. Sarah's imsiai, re turn to thy miistress, and submit thyselt ander her hand." lie did not conisel her t) ran away or make her escape. Gene. avs xvii: 13, -lie that is born in thy house and he that is bought with th) money most needs be circumcised." Genesit x'iv: 35. "The Lord hath blessed my mas ter greatly. and be is become great-and be hath men servants and maid servants." Ren. xx: 10. "But the seventh lay is the Sabbath, in it thou shall not do any work ~nor thy man servant nor thy maid ser vant." 'The fourth commandment is a snoral preep. and it recognizees the chear _Amn servant and maid serVant. -A -s 94M- 1Bothty.bod iwe s bhiaofthe betbeni that ar nd -abbaytia; ofthem shall you buy bondmen and bondmaids-and you shall take therp -* an inheritance, for your children after yeo to inherit1 thcal for a possession..bhy shall be your L.ondmn forever." The expression boncdsen means slaves, and thae Judieial law delivered to Ahoses was in - conformnity with the fourth commandment, which recogaizes thte principle of master ad servant. Anal Jesus Chri't, when he entn into the wrorld, dial not set aside the order of Government which Goal hayi os nahlished among the nations of the earth. ;0stthew xxii: '21-Christ said. "Render therefore unto Csar the things which are Ctsar's. and unto Gad the things which are God'.;" and the Apostles Paul, in this epistle tat the Ephetsans. chap..vi: 5 says, --servants hte obedient to) them that are vooir wasters accordinie to the flesh, wit h fear and trembhlitng. in singlenessa or your harna ne unto Charir-t."
