The writer warns his readers about the dubious authorship of a new newspaper called "The Colored Man's Journal." It encourages African Americans to embrace Colonization efforts and immigrate to Africa. This, the writer believes, could not be the writing of an African American. He believes this newspaper to be a sham.
