Excerpt from The Unconstitutionality of Slavery The True American, (cortland County, N. Says It is an imperishable and triumphant work. A law argument that would add to the fame of the most famed jurist, living or dead. The Bangor Gazette says It is indeed a masterly argument. No one, unprejudiced, who has supposed that that instrument (the constitution) contained guarantees of slavery, or who has had doubts upon the point, can rise from the perusal without feeling relieved from the supposition that our great national charter is one of slavery and not of free dom. And no lawyer can read it without admiring, besides its other great excellences, the clearness of its style, and its logical precision. The Hampshire Herald, (northampton) says It is worthy the most gifted intellect in the country. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Slavery in the United States (Classic Reprint) by James Kirke Paulding Pdf

Excerpt from Slavery in the United States Hitherto, almost all that has appeared on the subject has been on one side. The horrors of sla very have been depicted in such glowing colours as to blind us to the consequences that may, and assuredly will result from attempting to get rid of it in the summary manner demanded by the advo cates of immediate abolition, who, one might al most be tempted to believe, consider it the only evil existing in the world. Regard to the honour of our country justice to a great body of as upright, honourable, and humane citizens as any nation can boast; respect to the laws of the land, and rev erence for the constitution, seem to demand that the reverse of the picture should be seen; that the mischiefs to be remedied, the cost of the remedy, and the good to be gained by its application, should be camly considered, in order that all may, if they please, see for themselves and decide for them selves, whether, ih attempting to get rid of one evil, we may not inflict others of far greater magnitude whether, in short, by applying rash and unskilful remedies, we may not kill the patient.

The Unconstitutionality of Slavery (Complete Edition) by Lysander Spooner Pdf

This eBook edition of "The Unconstitutionality of Slavery" has been formatted to the highest digital standards and adjusted for readability on all devices. "The Unconstitutionality of Slavery" is a book by American abolitionist Lysander Spooner advocating the view that the United States Constitution prohibited slavery. This view was advocated in contrast to that of William Lloyd Garrison who advocated opposing the constitution on the grounds that it supported slavery. In the pamphlet, Spooner shows that none of the state governments of the slave states specifically authorized slavery, that the U.S. Constitution contains several clauses that are contradictory with slavery, that slavery was a violation of natural law, and that the intentions of the Constitutional Convention have no legal bearing on the document they created.

The Fugitive Slave Bill by American and Foreign Anti-Slave Society Pdf

Excerpt from The Fugitive Slave Bill: Its History and Constitutionality; With an Account of the Seizure and Enslavement of James Hamlet, and His Subsequent Restoration of Liberty The Executive Committee of the Society believe that the heart of every anti slavery individual will deeply sympathize with the panting fugitive. They trust that the dwelling of every citizen will be an asylum, or place of protection; and that in view of his extraordinary circumstances, and the approaching cold weather, clothing, and other necessary articles, will be furnished with a liberal hand. They would not recommend that fugitives go to Canada, at least on the approach of winter; but if any go, that they be men without families. It is well for every fugitive to avoid large cities and public houses. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
