4.9/5 (16168 ratings)

Description:Excerpt from Liberia, as I Found It: In 1858 I have labored for twelve years in the African Colonization cause with mind, heart and body. I found, as time passed on, the published progress of Liberia, (which her Annual State Treasurer's Report will indicate, ) did not meet, in my mind, the vivid descriptions given of the agricultural condition of the people. I came to the conclusion to visit that land, and examine it for myself. What I wanted to know of it, the reader will readily learn, as he reads the journal herewith furnished to him. As to my ability and faithfulness in making the examination, he is able to judge for himself, without much study. Whether I have done justice to the Liberians in my statements of themselves and their country, and have regarded the expediency and welfare of the black people in emigrating to Liberia as their future home, can also be correctly determined on, if the reader will decide with the same character of candor that the writer has used in writing. Both sides of the Atlantic ocean demand candor and truthfulness in stating and in examining the facts pertaining to Liberia. For the colored man's future interest, who is dwelling in this country, is to be faithfully regarded, as well as Africa's civilization. The minutiae of information is therefore given, that the colored man's choice may be made to his satisfaction, if he puts his foot on Liberia's shore as his home. He is told what he will find in Liberia without any fear of its being contradicted by his own examination, or that of another, in what pertains to his state as a free man; and a man, that has claims upon the soil he makes his home, to give to him and his family a good support as the returns of his industry.
