The following Letter to the General Agent of the Parent Society was read to the meeting. Boston, Feb. 7, 1533. I had the honor to receive, this morning, through your kind communication, the invitation of the Committee of Arrangements, to attend the Anniversary Celebration of the Massachusetts Colonization Society, - and I beg to assure you, that it is with great regret, that I find myself prevented, by previous engagements, the gratification of being present on so interesting an occasion. The objects of the Society appear to me, to be in accordance with the dictates of an enlightened and enlarged philanthropy, seeking to ameliorate the condition of the most oppressed and abused of our fellow men. Its measures have been pursued with a zeal and perseverance worthy the noble purpose, at the same time, characterized by that prudence and discretion, and attended with a success, which cheer the heart with a reasonable hope of their eminently beneficial results.
