The South Vindicated from the Treason and Fanaticism of the Northern Abolitionists (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from The South Vindicated From the Treason and Fanaticism of the Northern Abolitionists

Tna framers offiour government, when confronted in their labours by the question of slavery, prudent ly turned aside from a't0pic, which menaced their councils with division, and the embryo constitution with death. They left the unquestioned sovereignty of the Southern States over all connected with this most important branch of their domestic relations, untouched. The controversy was buried, as they hoped, for ever; and they departed from the scene of their labours, in the happy confidence that our country did not contain one man so lost to reason and patriotism, as madly to violate the grave in which they saw this exciting question quietly mum cd, and drag it forth to madden and distract the land.
