An Eflay on Slavery,
Designed to exhibit in a new point of view
its effe&s on morals, induflry, arfd the peace of
society. Stmie fa&s and calculations are offered
to prove the labor o\ freemen to be much more
productive than that ol slaves ; that countries are
rich, powerful and happy, in proportion as the
4' Übm'ffifr pt-Uf'lw -iirjuy rf thtii XT^TT
labor; and hence the n< ctffai y conclusion, that
slavery is impolitic as well as unjuji.
