SLAVE-TRADE. History of a Voyage to the Coast of Africa, and Travels into the interior of that Country: containing particular descriptions of the Climate and inhabitants, and interesting particulars concerning the Slave-Trade. By Joseph Hawkins, of New York, who has since become blind, and for whose benefit it is now published by his friends.

Vol. IV, p. 370.-No account of election-day services in 1803 could be found when the copy for the page was prepared. It has been found since that the sermon was preached by Rev. Sylvester Sage.
