Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The League for the Union: Speeches of the Hon. George Bancroft, and James Milliken, Esq. It was evident to all present that there was a necessity for unity of purpose and of action on the part of the whole people. All felt that we could no longer stand idly by, and permit the growth of unfruitful counsel and divided sentiment. We must act together, and act promptly. The want of encouragement from the people, the masses at home, if you will permit the expression, had so disheartened the Administration, as to leave it somewhat paralyzed. The plan adopted was that of a League, an organization having for its sole object the bringing together of those citizens who would pledge themselves to unqualified loyalty to the government of the United States, and unwavering support of its efforts for the suppression of the rebellion. The association could have no higher political aim; and anything other than this, such as bringing into life a new political party, or of advocating or endorsing, inconsiderately or blindly, the theories of the old political parties, was entirely ignored.
