be exterminated. Let us inquire? Does not each generation, morally stand before God, on their own responsibility in regard to sin? Certainly they do. How then, could the cumulative sins of one generation be passed to the next succeeding one, to their _moral_ injury or detriment? Impossible! But _the iniquity_ here spoken of, _could be so transmitted_; and at the time when God said it, he tells us that it required _four generations_ to make the iniquity full. What crime but the amalgamation of Adam's sons, the children of God, with the negro--beasts--called by Adam _men_, could require four generations to fill up their iniquity, but this crime of amalgamation? None. Then we _know the iniquity_, and what God then thought and yet thinks of it. Nor is this all the evidence the Bible furnishes, of God's utter abhorrence of this crime, and his decided _disapprobation of the negro_, in those various attempts to _elevate_ him to _social_, _political_ and _religious equality_ with the white race. In the laws delivered by God, to Moses, for the children of Israel, he expressly enacts and charges, "that no _man_ having a _flat nose_, shall approach unto his altar." This includes the _whole negro race_; and expressly _excludes_ them from coming to his altar, for _any act of worship_. God would not have their worship then, nor accept their sacrifices or oblations--_they_ should not approach his altar; but all of Adam's race could. For Adam's children God set up his altar, and for their benefit ordained the sacrifices; but not for the race of _flat-nosed men_, and such the _negro race is_. And who shall gainsay, or _who dare_ gainsay, that what God does is not right? The first attempt at the social equality of the negro, with Adam's race, brought the flood upon the world--the second, brought confusion and dispersion--the third, the fire of God's wrath, upon the cities of the plain--the fourth, the order from God, to exterminate the _nations_ of the Canaanites--the fifth, the inhibition and exclusion, by _express law of_ God, of the _flat-nosed_ negro from his altar. Will the people of the United States, now furnish the sixth? _Nous verrons_. There remains now but one other point to prove, and that is--That the negro has no soul. This can only be done by the express word of God. Any authority short of this, will not do. But if God says so, then all the men, and all the reasonings of men on earth, can not change it; for it is not i
