For Frederick Douglass' Paper.

WHEATLAND NOV. 18, 1854

F. DOUGLASS, ESQ: DEAR SIR:—In publishing my short article on slavery, in your paper of last week, the printer made two mistakes in the last paragraph, which weaken its force and mar its sense.

It is printed, "Was it for this that they declared to the world, that men were enslaved with unalienable rights? Was it for this that they erected the great monument of freedom, as a warning to the oppressed? It ought to have been, "Was is for this, that they declared to the world, that all men were endowed with unalienable rights? Was it for this, that they erected the great monument of freedom, as a warning to the oppressors, and an example to the oppressed?"

Yours, most respectfully,

WILLIAM GARBUTT.
