Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Indo-Chinese Opium Trade: Considered in Relation to Its History, Morality, and Expediency, and Its Influence on Christian Missions; Being the Essay Which Obtained the Maitland Prize of the University for 1882 The Maitland Prize in the University of Cambridge was founded by the friends of the late Sir Peregrine Maitland, K.C.B., late Commander-in-Chief of the Forces in South India, for an English Essay on some subject connected with the propagation of the Gospel through missionary exertions in India and other parts of the heathen world. The subject selected for the year 1882 was ´The Opium Traffic between India and China viewed politically and morally, and in its bearings on the efforts of Christian missionaries.´ The following essay was successful in the competition for that prize. I have read the essay with, much interest, and I trust that it may be the means of calling the attention of many persons to what I believe to be one of the greatest sins that lie at our door as a nation.
