Letter to Hon. William Nelson, M. C., On Mr. Clay´s Compromise (Classic Reprint)

Produktbeschreibung

Excerpt from Letter to Hon. William Nelson, M. C., On Mr. Clay´s Compromise My Dear Sir: - As one of your immediate constituents, permit me to express to you my views on the resolutions lately submitted to the Senate by Mr. Clay. They are skilfully drawn, and their true import seems to me to be generally misunderstood, and in many instances intentionally misrepresented. Various considerations combine to render these resolutions acceptable to that class of our Northern politicians, who are anxious to be popular at home, without forfeiting their share of the patronage which is dispensed at Washington, by the slave power. The resolutions are eight in number, and I will examine them in their order.1. This proposes the admission of California as a State, without the imposition by Congress of any restriction on the subject of slavery, and "with suitable boundaries." These words imply that the present boundaries are unsuitable, and must be altered. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
