do us? But is Mr. Jefferson's assertion true? viz. "that it is unfortunate for us that our Creator has been pleased to make us black." We will not take his say so, for the fact. The world will have an opportunity to see whether it is unfortunate for us, that our Creator _has made us_ darker than the _whites_. Fear not the number and education of our _enemies_, against whom we shall have to contend for our lawful right; guaranteed to us by our Maker; for why should we be afraid, when God is, and will continue (if we continue humble) to be on our side? The man who would not fight under our Lord and Master Jesus Christ, in the glorious and heavenly cause of freedom and of God--to be delivered from the most wretched, abject and servile slavery, that ever a people was afflicted with since the foundation of the world, to the present day--ought to be kept with all of his children or family, in slavery, or in chains, to be butchered by his _cruel enemies_. [<-Hand] I saw a paragraph, a few years since, in a South Carolina paper, which, speaking of the barbarity of the Turks it said: "The Turks are the most barbarous people in the world--they treat the Greeks more like _brutes_ than human beings." And in the same paper was an advertisement, which said: "Eight well built Virginia and Maryland _Negro fellows_ and four _wenches_ will positively be _sold_ this day _to the highest bidder!_" And what astonished me still more was, to see in this same _humane_ paper!! the cuts of three men, with clubs and budgets on their backs, and an advertisement offering a considerable sum of money for their apprehension and delivery. I declare it is really so _funny_ to hear the Southerners and Westerners of this country talk about _barbarity_, that it is positively, enough to make a man _smile_.
