Excerpt: These hardy and robust negroes are now stronger than the miserable captives from Africa, their ancestors. They grow gradually stronger and comelier ; and in about a century or two hence, they may, by so much exercise in both sexes, and such good and constant food, become much stronger than they now are -- and fit for the work of carnage and insurrection, if slaves: and for comeliness and vigour, for speedy" amalgamation with our sons and daughters, if free ! To just such a state of things, would the tenacious holding of negroes come at last, if cupidity, stupidity, interests, and folly, prevail in our country to neglect my warning. Living so long, and so much without labour, the sons and daughters of planters are getting feebler and feebler every . generation, until at last they shall terminate in rank imbecility, or a lethargy and impotence of body and mind.

The Romans were able champions for their city
