These selected paragraphs distill the contents and give you a quick look inside Calumny Refuted, by Facts from Liberia - Presented to the Boston Anti-Slavery Bazaar, U.S., by the - Author of 'A Tribute For The Negro.':Look inside the book: 'But if there be any among us, dead to all sense of honour and love of their country; deaf to all the calls of liberty, virtue, and religion; forgetful of the benevolence and magnanimity of those who have procured this asylum for them, and the future happiness of their children; if neither the examples nor the success of other nations, the dictates of reason and of nature, nor the great duties they owe to their God, themselves, and their posterity, have no effect upon them;-if neither the injuries they received in the land whence they came, the prize they are contending for, the future blessings or curses of their children, the applause or reproach of all mankind, the approbation or displeasure of the great Judge, nor the happiness or misery consequent upon their conduct, in this and a future state, can move them; then, let them be assured, that they deserve to be Slaves, and are entitled to nothing but anguish and tribulation. ...'Thanks to the improved and humanised spirit-or, should I not rather say, the chastened and pacific civilization of the age in which we live,-that laurels gathered upon the field of mortal strife, and bedewed with the tears of the Widow and the Orphan, are regarded now, not with admiration but with horror-that the armed warrior, reeking with the gore of murdered thousands, who, in the age that is just passing away, would have been hailed with noisy acclamation by the senseless crowd, is now regarded only as the savage commissioner of an unsparing oppression, or at best as the ghostly executioner of an unpitying justice.-He who would embalm his name in the grateful remembrance of coming generations-he who would secure for himself a niche in the temple of undying fame-he who would hew out for himself a monument of which his country may boast-he who would entail upon heirs a name which they may be proud to wear, must seek some other field than that of battle as the theatre of his exploits.
