Massachusetts and South Carolina: Correspondence Between John Quincy Adams and Wade Hampton and Others of South Carolina (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Excerpt from Massachusetts and South Carolina: Correspondence Between John Quincy Adams and Wade Hampton and Others of South Carolina
Must not every sane man also see that in the very nature of things slavery is dead forever? Has not every Southern State put her name and seal to the deed? But beyond this, did not every Southern statesman see that with the result of the war slavery could not stand? That it must cease to be a domestic institution, because it had become an international (so to speak) cause of war.
Are there no statesmen left among those in power who can see this? Or do they see it and are they basely using the hopes, the peace, the very life of the country to advance personal or party interests?
Let us hope that God in his wisdom may turn the hearts of those who know the right, yet pursue the wrong, and strike the scales from the eyes of others, who are really in the darkness of ignorance, and therefore easily the dupes of their better in formed leaders.
