Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Mission to England, in Behalf of the American Colonization Society Although in the statement here submitted to the public, I have not attempted to render due acknowledgments for great kindness and aid received from individuals, both in this country and Great Britain, yet I cannot permit the work to go forth without some expression of my sense of the liberality of the Managers of the New York Society, in their appropriation for the mission, and also of the generosity with which several philanthropic Americans contributed individually to sustain it. Nor can I ever forget my obligations to those in England and Scotland, who rendered the time spent in those countries, among the most delightful periods of my life. I have seen and felt enough (notwithstanding the general unpopularity of the cause I represented,) of the candour, integrity, courtesy, and hospitality of the English people,to make me deprecate, even beyond what it is possible to express, the growth of unfriendly sentiments between them and the citizens of the United States. It is the duty of all good men in both countries to cultivate mutual confidence as well as forbearance, and to become united in the covenant of perpetual peace. Let one thousand of our best citizens annually visit Great Britain, and an equal number of high minded Englishmen annually come to America, to hold social intercourse with our people, and the two nations will never rush together in conflict.
