Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Message of His Excellency William A. Buckingham, Governor of Connecticut: To the Legislature of the State, May Session, 1862 Mr. President, Mk. Speaker, and Gentlemen of the General Assembly: We are privileged to live at a period of thought, and energy, and progress, when principles which lie at the foundation of organized society and national government are being reviewed and discussed by earnest champions, for the purpose of securing a new adjustment of civil rights. The struggle for supremacy is between the light which beams from intelligent and disinterested benevolence, and the darkness which surrounds ignorant and depraved selfishness, between order and anarchy, between the antagonisms of labor, and between the extremes of class. The contest is at our own firesides, between our own citizens, in the presence of an interested universal civilization, and is to test the strength of our institutions, and the stability of our National Government. At a time when such issues are pending, the Legislature of a sovereign State occupies a position of high importance and grave responsibility. Your record will form one important link in that chain of grand events which connects our national existence of to-day with its past and its future; and your discussions will countenance and encourage the enemies of our republic now in rebellion against its authority, or aid in the triumph of constitutional liberty and the restoration of the power and integrity of the Union. Called by the voice of the people to meet these responsibilities, we may, in humble dependence upon Divine influences, enter upon our labors with hope and courage, and discharge our duties with fidelity to our constituents, our country, and our God.
