Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Candid Appeal to the Citizens of the United States: Proving That the Doctrines Advanced and the Measures Pursued by the Abolitionists, Relative to the Subject of Emancipation, Are Inconsistent With the Teachings and Directions of the Bible Fellow-Citizens: A Society, of a very extraordinary character, was organized in the month of December last, in the city of Philadelphia, known and designated by the name of the "National Anti-Slavery Society." The Society has published and sent forth to the world a "Declaration of Sentiments," including the "Designs and Measures" of the Society, and the objects they propose to accomplish. According to this Declaration, the following sentiments, principles, and measures, are distinctly avowed: - "We maintain, that in view of the civil and religious privileges of this nation, the guilt of its oppression is unequalled by any other on the face of the earth; - and, therefore, that it is bound to repent instantly, to undo the heavy burden, to break every yoke, and to let the oppressed go free. "We further maintain, that every man has a right to his own body, to the products of his own labour, to the protection of law, and to the common advantages of society. It is piracy to buy or steal an African, and subject him to servitude. Surely the sin is as great to enslave an American as an African.
