:20C)Sl. RMONS.have fon-.e hope, that you, by fettling in America,,2iiay be of great life to propagate tlie gofpel amongthe poor Indians ; a people plain, and uncorruptedby luxury or falfe refinement, and \\ hom bad ufagealone hath fometimes fpurred on to a£ts of cruelty,if ycu hrive interCourfe witJi them, and ufe themwell, they Mnil be your faiK friends ; and by means ofthat iiitercourfe and friendfiiip, you may be the happyinftruments, in the hand of providence, of bringingthem to embrace the faith of Chriil. There havebeen attempts made to enlighten and convert thatpeople ; I will not fay with what political views theywere fet en foot at home -, and I am afliamed to fpeakor think of the temper and behavi^ûr of thofe whohave been fent abroad to execute them. Is it to beexpected, that the wild Indians, who, like other men,have reafon, and a fenfe of right anil wrong *, is it tobe expected, that they will embrace a religion, whenthey fee its profefibp to be openly debauched andprofane, and find tliem to be, in their tranfa
feign for ever and ever. Sing tlioii^ O birreu, thouthat didft not bear ; break forth into fiiiiîng, and cryaloud,thou that didft not travad with child y for moreare the children of the defolate than the children ofthe married Mnfe, iaith ihe Lord. Enlarge the placeof thy tent, and let thern ilretch forth the curtauis ofthine habitations ; fpare not, lengthen thy cord-j,fbrengthen thy flakes."— *' The Lord fliail be knownin Egypt ; Ethiopia iliall ftretch- out her hands toGod j the Gentiles fhall come to-liis light, and theiiles Hiall wait for him."When one confiders the impiety, venality, and oppreflion,that prevail in this country, and the littletemptedfenfe men have of liberty and religion, he isto think that me are on the eve of fomc mighty revolution.Alas ! is it not to be feared, that God maybe provoked to remove our candleftick out of itsplace, and to give the gofpei to a people who willbring forth the fruits of it ? or that religion is wearingto an end ? But the church of Chrili: is foundedupon a rock, and the gates of hell lliail never prevail.,againft it j and it is fome confolation to think, that,religion, fo much defpifed in this country, may bcjefteemed iiv North America, and praclifed by ourcountrymon and the Lidians in tliat new world., Iffuch a glorious blcffing fhall be enlarged and fpreadabroad, in confeqUence of your having been oppre.^".fed,, you need not grudge at what you have fufferc,.'.6. You miKj eftcem America to be the more defirablea retreat from your oppreflion,bccaufe, in allprobability, it will in a comlV of years -become thefeat of the Britifli government. I will not here mentionwhat hath been obfcrved by hiftorians,- that the(eat of empire hath, from the moft ancient timesytravelle'd from eafl to weft ; nor will I fay any thin^p^,about the great changes that have been made in thefyftem of Europe by thedifcovery and plantation ofthe weftern world.
