LTO THE EDITOR Or THE ”srsexAros."1 have been much interested

in your article in the Spectator of March 23rd. I hasten to assure you that the Committee of the Anti-Slavery Society fully recognize the importance of the information the Rev. J. Harris has brought from West Africa. However, my immediate object in writing is to notice the concluding paragraph of your article, in which occur the words that this society is composed "for the most part of members of the Liberal Party." It has always been my wish, and I am sure also that of all my colleagues, that they will never allow party considerations to influence their action in this or any other matter,—I am, Sir, &c., T. POWELL BUXTON.
