Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Letter From Colonel J. E. Bryant of Georgia to Hon. H. Hamlin, U. S. S: Also, Letters From Several Distinguished Men National Hotel, Washington, D.C., February 24, 1870. Hon. H. Hamlin, U.S. Senator from Maine: Dear Sir - As a representative of my native State, (Maine,) in the United States Senate, I address you upon a matter of importance to myself; I do this because I come to Washington to represent the condition of my adopted State, (Georgia,) and because most infamous falsehoods have been told to injure me. If I alone would suffer by what is said of me, I would remain silent, and allow time to be my vindicator; but the condition of my State is such that I have felt it to be my duty to come to this city and lay before Senators and Representatives a statement of our condition. To prevent my statements from having weight with Republicans, it is alleged that I have deserted my party and am now acting with Democrats. I have acted with Democrats just as "Old Thad. Stevens" used to act with them - to carry his points. My State is in the hands of a "ring" of bad men, who, by the aid of immense patronage, are able, assisted by Congress and the military authorities, to retain power for a short time. They seek to induce Congress and the Republican party to continue to aid them until they shall have carried out their schemes, and shall have plundered the State. I know that they can hold power but a short time after Congress shall have given up the control of our affairs to the people of the State, but in the meantime they will have done much harm, and will have ruined the Republican party of Georgia. I did much to build up that party, and I dislike to see it ruined by men who did almost nothing; men who were placed in power because they were supposed to be Union men, but have betrayed those who trusted them.
