With respect to the fertility of the country, the good disposition of many of the natives, and the manner by which the slave trade is carried on.

With quotations from the writings of several persons of note, viz. George Wallis, Francis Hutcheson, and James Foster, and a large extract from a pamphlet, lately published in London, on the subject of the slave trade.
