Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Letters on the Relation of the White and African Races in the United States: Showing the Necessity of the Colonization of the Latter, Addressed to the Representative Men of the Nation To the Honorable Messrs. Lincoln, Douglas, Bell and Breckinridge, Gentlemen: We respectfully ask your consideration of the matter and measure named in the following letters and papers. You are by choice the representative men of the several sections of our common country, and one or the other of you will have been chosen as the future magistrate of the nation, before these letters can be published, as they are not intended for general circulation or party purposes, but for private use, placed at your service as an aid to reflection on the most dangerous and troublesome question of our time; and for the purpose of renewing the prayer and request made through twelve years last past, and placed before three successive administrations; hoping that circumstances will justify the incoming administration to look the question disturbing the peace of the country calmly in the face, and that steps will be taken to dispose of it before it becomes of unmanageable magnitude. We claim no originality for the measures proposed, they have been the subjects of reflection and partial action with American statesmen from the foundation of the Republic; we have only attempted to take up their plans and reflections and embody them in the form of petition.
