An EfTay on Slavery:
Defighed to exhibit in a new point of view,
its effedts on indujlry, and the peace of
ociety. Some facts and calculations are offered
to prove the labor oljrtemen 10 be much more
produßire than that of JLaves ; that countries are
rich, powerful and happy, in proportion as the
laboring people enjoy the fruits of their own
labor ; and hence the teccdaty conclusion, that
slavery is impolitic as well as unjujl.

victory which they have obtained over
the iriduftrious and serious part of the
community, with regard to Theatrical en
tei tainments, they ought to beware of
infniting the feelings of their mourning
