Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Geo; Francis Train: Unionist, on T. Colley Grattan, Secessionist America remembers her friends in the hour of adversity - she will not forget her enemies. Retribution is close upon the crime. Mene! Mene! Tekel! Upharsin! Read Grattan´s pamphlet, and correct me if my translation of its title is not in accordance with its tenor! I took it up, and laid it down, and failed to find substance for review; weak as I knew to be the Confederates, I never imagined they would admit as much in their official proclamations. Fuller preaches a feeble Secession funeral sermon! Mackay reads a feeble Secession psalm! Hunt offers up a feeble Secession prayer, and Grattan writes a feeble Secession obituary notice! Imagine Yancey´s disgust at the dead failure of the dead lecture, and the dead pamphlet. It was no consolation for Mann to say, Yes, such Advocacy Is Ruin. O, Save Us From Our Friends! Who is Thomas Colley Grattan? He tells you that he is the author of "Civilized America!" That slanderous publication I nailed on its issue, and these pages tell you how I did it, by reproducing the review from the Liverpool Post. A writer so unjust to a people in the sunshine cannot be expected to befriend them in the shade. Having abused the slave-owner, he now defends him, - the black becomes white. Bead his chapter at the slave auction in Richmond, written only a year ago, and compare therewith his Secession pamphlet! Consistency is a jewel. Jewels are rare! Before dissecting "Civilized America," and proving how completely Grattan has transposed the colors on its map, let me refute one important Secession falsehood. If all the rebel assertions are as far out as to their population estimate, from thirty to fifty percent, may be safely deducted from all their statements.
