Note 80 — THE BARBARISM OF SLAVERY. (continued 2)

This is a natural incident of Slavery. Bishop Warburton, in a sermon before the Society for the Propagation of the Gospel in Foreign Parts, recounts how “a very worthy benefactor bequeathed unto us in trust, for the propagation of the Gospel, a plantation stocked with slaves,” and he exclaims, “An odd legacy to the promulgators of the Law of Liberty!”—Sermon XX.: Works, (London, 1811,) Vol. X. p. 58.
