I. INFLUENCE OF SLAVERY ON SLAVEHOLDERS.

-Slavery begets a character favorable to its own continuance, 315.-Contrast
between the slaves and their masters--the relative situation of the two classes
the result of violence, 316.-The system cuts off sympathy-places the slave on
the footing of a brute, 317.-Arbitrary power over brutes is often abused to great
cruelty-Man still more likely to excite man's passions, 318.- Cocrcion the ne-

cessary consequence of the tenure-the necessary inflictions harden the master's

heart-familiarity with suffering tends to the same result, 319. The process of

hardening the slaveholder's heart begins in childhood, 320. A forced relation can

give rise to no reciprocal duties-its effects not confined to the intercourse of mas-

ter and slave, 321. Slaveholders are inevitably driven to regard the slaves as

an inferior race-less than men, 322. Driven to other false pleas-to a self-de-

ceptive dishonesty, 323. Other actions soon brought to the test of the false and

wicked morality of slaveholding-effects on those who act in defiance of their

convictions still worse, 324.-Guilt in proportion to light, 325-Indolence of the

slaveholder, 326.-Light of facts, 327.—Effect upon general morals illustrated in

the case of the Georgians and Cherokees, 328.-Influence of an immense mass

of ignorance and degradation, especially upon children, 329.-Burke's opinion,

330.-The character of slaveholders, if nothing else, makes it our duty morally

to interfere, 332.

II. LETTER TO A MINISTER OF THE GOSPEL, By Beriah Green..

..333

Exclusion of the subject of slavery from the pulpit, based on the injunction of

Paul, 333. The interpretation which would confine the Christian teacher to a

narrow circle of topics at variance with the practice of the apostle in this very

epistle, 334.-The true aim of the apostle was against the subtleties of false rhe-

toric-he was for the progress of the gospel as distinguished from false philoso-

phy-not from good morals, 335.-He viewed all subjects of human interest in

the light shed by the cross of Christ.-In this light his injunction should teach

us to view the subject of slavery-meaning of salvation, 337. Absurdity of piety

without humanity-saintship without manhood, 338.-Course of Christ and his

apostles-rebukers of the proud-friends of the poor, 339.-Case of the priest

going to Jericho-the Savior's representative on earth-the hungry, ragged, sick,

oppressed stranger, 340.

III. SLAVERY AND ITS ECCLESIASTICAL DEFENDERS, By the Editor....341

[Dr. Channing on Slavery, and his Reviewers, in the Christian Spectator and

Biblical Repertory.]

with slaveholders-Christian Spectator, 344.—The value of abolitionists who

sympathize with slaveholders, 345.-Christian Spectator disproves its own theory

pertory, 347.-Controversy between the Repertory and Christian Spectator, 348.

The Repertory's account of Anti-Slavery publications, 349.-Difference of cir-

cumstances between our country and England, 350.-Southern exasperation, 352.

-The propriety of addressing the people of one country against the oppression
of those in another, 354. The Repertory's grand pro-slavery argument-its defi-
nition of slavery, 355.-Absolute ownership of the slaveholder, 356.-Deceptive-
ness of the Reviewer's definition, 357.-Meaning of the word servant in the New
Testament, 358.-No proof that slavery existed in Judea-Differences of circum-
stances between that time and the present, 359.-Were slaveholders received to
the communion by the Apostles? 360.-Exegesis of 1 Tim. vi. 1, 361.--Difference
between ancient and modern slavery, 363.-The Reviewer assumes without proof,
that slaveholders were in the primitive church, 364.-Christ and his apostles not

slaveholders, but laboring men-community of goods-success among the poor

rather than the rich, 365. The trouble that would inevitably have followed

the admission of slaveholders-supposed letter of some slaveholders to Paul, 366.

-Case of Philemon, 367.-Primitive church free from participation-not so the

American, 368.-Mischief done to true religion by the reviewer, 369.-His denial

of natural equality-his hypocritical opposition to slavery! 370.-The General

Assembly has made itself responsible for this sin, 371.-Public course of Christ

and his apostles, by analogy, if placed in our circumstances, 376.-This point

made clear by the Reviewer himself, 373.-Slavery the idolatry of this nation,

374.
