Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Some Thoughts on the Pacification of the Country: For the Consideration of the North and the South My Fellow-Citizens - While there are many daily instructing you how to prosecute this war, permit me to offer some suggestions, as to the way in which we may obtain peace. The idea in the mind of many people is, that we can have peace only when the rebellious. States are subjugated; and so excessive is their patriotism, that they declare they will not live in a divided country. If they meant a country divided in sentiment, and ruled by opposing parties, we certainly know that it is an evil to be dreaded; but to separate is the oldest way of making peace. Can we not, like Abraham, say, "Let there be no strife between us; if you will take the left, I will go to the right. Separate thyself, I pray thee, from me." With the whole land before us, there is no need for a people opposed to each other in principle being bound together. We may still be a great people, though in a much smaller country; and the days to which we look back with pride, are those in which we had not the half of our present territory.
