Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Maryland Colonization Journal, Vol. 4: April, 1849
The countries where these doctrines exercise the most absolute sway, are the great heathen empires of China and Japan, whose people are not allowed to emigrate, even temporarily; though many of the Chinese are forced, by the superabundance of the population, to emigrate contrary to law. But the sentiment is not confined to them. In England, but a few years since, a book was published on the evils of colonization - not of any particular instance, but of colonization in general. It was the work of a good Christian man, and was read and praised by others of like spirit. And kindred feelings occasionally show themselves among Christian men, and sometimes 1 View good and very able men in our own country.
It may not be wholly useless, therefore, to inquire what God has taught us, in his Word on this subject. This we shall now attempt; and we invite the closest scrutiny, consistent with candor, of our citations, interpretations and inferences.
