ern cotemporary remarks that Yankees
make the hardest masters of slaves in
the Pouth. This is undoubtedly true.
They are the hardest employers of
white wofkrnen, arid they expect to
get as much I ahnt from a slave as they
have forced from the necessities of
white men. No system of slavery in
the world, that we have any knowledge
of, is as harsh, inhuman and Cruel as
that which prevails in the Yankee mer
chant marine. The scenes of horror
that are of constant occcurrenee in
Yankee vessels have caused the whole
civilized world to stand aghast. For
years before the present rupture, the
E glish journals were filled with ac
counts of cruelties and murders prac
ticed upon, American seamen in the
various lines of packets and freight
ships trading between the North and
England. The subject was brought to
llic attention of Parliament, atid the in
quiry was nnxioiisly pressed whether
measure could not be hdopted by the
Clilted States Government and Courts,
