Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from An Address Delivered in Marlboro Chapel, Boston, July 4, 1838 Fellow Citizens: What a glorious day is this! what a glorious people are we! This is the time-honored, wine-honored, toast-drinking, powder-wasting, tyrant-killing fourth of July - consecrated, for the last sixty years, to bombast, to falsehood, to impudence, to hypocrisy. It is the great carnival of republican despotism, and of christian impiety, famous the world over! Since we held it last year, we have kept securely in their chains, the stock of two millions, three hundred thousand slaves we then had on hand, in spite of every effort of fanaticism to emancipate them; and, through the goodness of God, to whom we are infinitely indebted for the divine institution of negro slavery, have been graciously enabled to steal some seventy thousand babes, the increase of that stock, and expect to steal a still greater number before ´another glorious´ anniversary shall come round! We have again struck down the freedom of speech in Congress, and utterly banished it from one half of the Union, by the aid of pistols, bowie-knives, and lynch-law.
