Includes two letters: One by Edward Drinker Cope in response to a letter regarding a previous article on "the proposed removal of the African race...to Africa" (a virulently racist screed) and one by writer and feminist Elizabeth Oakes Smith in which she reflects back on pre-war proposals involving Liberia and, while giving some Blacks their due ("Toussaint L'Overture was a great man"), also expresses some of her own racist beliefs ("We wrenched from [Africa] a sensual, ignorant, barbarous population, and we return thither a people with civilized instincts, and it is to be hoped with aspirations that may help the dark continent to wipe out her old pagan barbarism, cruelty, and sensuality, by creating in them the hope of culture and the intimations of Empire").
