Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Confederate The wisest, purest, and best of all the men this continent has given to the world, left us, in his farewell message of instruction, some counsels of inestimable value, which, if followed by the Nation, would have rendered the disruption of the old Union, which, however, no one can regret less than myself, unnecessary; and the United States might have moved on in peace and prosperity for ages. This separation would have been unnecessary, because the causes which led to, and justified it, would not have been allowed to spring into existence, if the maxims and admonitions of Washington had been heeded by the bigoted fanatics of the North. The Yankee race, true descendants of their false and fanatical progenitors, the bigoted Pilgrim Fathers, by their unceasing envy, hatred, jealousy and all uncharitableness towards the South, and their egotism, self-righteousness, dissimulation, cunning, cupidity and hypocrisy, have caused the severance of that union between the States which can never he renewed. The system of intriguing, selfish class legislation, and unscrupulous over-reaching, in all things, all with whom they came in contact, was inaugurated by the Yankees of the North in the earliest years of the United States Government, and was steadily, perseveringly and unscrupulously pursued for more than three quarters of a century, when it culminated in the election of Abraham Lincoln as President of the United States, on avowed local, partisan and fanatical principles. This caused the cup of the South, already filled with wrongs, injuries, outrages and insults, to overflow. The Union, once so loved but now so prostituted and debased. was spurned with contempt and loathing. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
