Before the abolition movement com menced, both northern and southern men, expressed their views freely at the South. The dangers, evils, and mischiefs of slavery were exhibited and discussed even in the legislative halls of more than one of the Southern States, and many minds were anx iously devising measures, to bring this evil to an end. Now let us look at some of the records of past experience. Clarkson was the first per son who devoted himself to the cause of Abolition in England. His objec...t was to convince the people of England that they were guilty of a great impolicy, and great 59 sin, in permitting the slave-trade. He was to meet the force of public sentiment, and power, and selfishness, and wealth, which sustained this trafic, in that nation. What were his measures ? He did not go to Swe den, or Russia, or France, to awaken public sentiment against the sins of the English. He began by first publishing an inquiry in England whether it was right to seize men, and make them slaves.
