Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Exodus of the American Freedmen The Exodus. The exodus thus far has proved a success, beyond the most sanguine expectations of the author of the Principia Papers. During the publication and circulation of the first seven or eight numbers or chapters in 1876, 7 and 8, the foundation for the exodus of the Freedmen was laid and the improvement of their condition by pointing out their political dangers, not the least among which were the politico-ecclesiastical chains that were forged for them, awaiting their return to serfdom, if not to absolute chattel slavery. These Papers were liberally distributed in 1876 and 1877, in a large portion of the Solid South, and the most doubtful republican states north and west. After the surrender of the infamous states-rights doctrine to the political trinity of despotism in 1877, with federal bayonets enough in each of the bulldozing states to maintain it, as then delineated, and proven in No.7, entitled the Southern Policy, we found it necessary in the following papers to define our plan as in No.9, and reduce the exodus to a system of measures as in No.10, which were lawful and legitimate on the part of the Freedmen, quiet and bloodless in their execution, and, in our judgment the best thing on the whole for the planters themselves.
