Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Speech of Edmund Burke, Esq.: On Moving His Resolutions for Conciliation With the Colonies, March 22, 1775 I do confess, I could not help looking on this event as a fortunate omen. I look upon it as a fort or providential favour; by which we are put once more in possession of our deliberative capacity, upon a business so very questionable in its nature, so very uncertain in its issue. By the return of this Bill, which seemed to have taken its flight for ever, we are at this very instant nearly as free to chuse a plan for our American Government, as we were on the fir ft day of the Session. If, Sir, we incline to the side of conciliation, we are not at all embarrassed (unless we please to make ourselves so) by any incongruous mixture of coercion and restraint. We are therefore called upon, as it were by a superior warning voice, again to attend to America; to attend to the whole of it together; and to review the subject with an unusual degree of care and calmness. Surely it is an awful subject; or there is none so on this side of the grave. When I first had the honour of a feat in this House, the affairs of that Continent pressed themselves upon us, as the most important and most delicate object of parliamentary attention.
