Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Dissertation on the Subject of a Congress of Nations, for the Adjustment of International Disputes Without Recourse to Arms The following Dissertation is one of a few selected by a Committee of the American Peace Society as the best of a large number that were presented as competitors for the large premium offered by that Society in behalf of two individuals, for the best Dissertation on the subject of which this treats. It should be observed, that there have been two efforts made to obtain a decision relative to the merits of these Dissertations, both of which have failed; the first Committee of Arbitration, Messrs. Wirt, Story, and M´Lean, being for a division of the prize among too many to meet the views of the donors; and the second Committee, Messrs. Adams, Webster, and Kent, being unable to agree as to the most meritorious one, each of the three having made a different selection. This being the result of these two attempts to obtain a decision in the case, and it being highly desirable that the subject should be brought prominently before the public mind without longer delay, this Dissertation is now sent forth to the community, in the confident hope that it will tend, in no small degree, to the consummation of the great, the glorious, the blessed object for which it was written - the abolition of the horrid custom of war, and the permanent pacification of the world. That this may be the result, the public are earnestly solicited not to prejudge the work as visionary, but to peruse it with candor, and then to form their opinion according to its merits, thereby acting in accordance with the Divine injunction, "to prove all things, and hold fast that which is good."
