to see the salt waves * green edge rushing through the yawning seams and crashing timbers , opened by the volleying shot , better than to feel the heart eating itself away in corroding anguish , deprived of all the solaces which bountiful nature has given for jnan ' s U 968 , It were better even greatly to fail , and perish by shot or steel : it were better , when the weakened hand could no
longer g » # p the death weapon , to feel the throat within the tightening t * ig of the rope , royen through the yard-arm , than to sit down a contented » &ve of slaughter . It were better to perish in cold bloiK ^ j pfter the mockery of a tri al for mutiny , and be con * ciov » that the perishing remnants of mortality were destined to drop in fragment * from the gibbet , on a river , or in a seaport , a spectacle for the more brutal members of the human race—it
were better tp perish thus , than not to record our solemn protest of resistance against human oppression , even though the attempt were unsuccessful . It is one of the marvels of the earth that the accursed practice should have been so long permitted to continue , by those who have been the sufferers . But it cannot endure . Another Parliament will yet succeed , who blushing for the barbarism of their predecessors , will wipe the blot from English legislation , thus proclaiming to the world that slavery is at last extinguished in the British empire , and that whites , as well as blacks , may walk in freedom , by the universal recognition of equal rights . Junius Redlvivus . March Ibth , 1934 .

TEARS AND 8 MILX 4 . Her cheek is pale , her eyes are wet , Her voice in murmurings ,
Grieves lowly to the morn that yet No sunshine brings . Why linger ye , O , laughing hours ? Uncurl ye buds * unfurl ye flowers !
Sod April ftiftgs . The paleness fleets , the tears are dry , Her voice with gladness rings ;
Thfi sunftbme over earth and sky Jts brightness flings . Come , revel through my laughing hours Ye warbling birds , ye b <| dfi and flowers ! Glad April sings .
