This book was released on 2015-07-07 with total page 46 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Eulogy on the Life, Character and Public Services of the Hon. John C. Calhoun: Pronounced by Appointment Before the Citizens of Cheraw and Its Vicinity, on Wednesday, April 24, 1850 Fellow Citizens: There are few that die who do not leave some behind to mourn. Natural affection, usefulness, dependence, or some other of the cords that bind the heart of man to man, are broken. We are not long in this world before we suffer, or learn to sympathise with those who weep under this kind of bereavement. Beside this, there are public demonstrations of respect usual, when men die high in station, and where the tribute is often rather to the office, than to the character of the dead. But we have come together not only to mourn for the loss of a "friend, a countryman, a lover;" but also, moved by higher impulses, to render honour to the memory of him, to whom honour is due. In attempting to direct your attention to those principles which lie at the foundation of our political institutions, to the study and vindication of which Mr. Calhoun (in the love of his soul for truth and country) devoted his youth, manhood, and old age; and in support of which he died; standing, as I do, by your own appointment, to speak of his fame; I may, in justice, ask of your candour and forbearance, a favourable construction, should any sentiment be uttered offensive to the opinions of any one of you; especially, (I speak among mine own people, ) when none in former days presented a more fatal opposition, (I speak of the stake of mine own life, ) to Mr. Calhoun's fundamental policy than your orator; and when now, having for a long time been Mr. Calhoun's political disciple, I am to speak in his praise. Did I not firmly believe, (a faith obtained after many struggles, aid over many and strong prejudices, ) did I not firmly believe that as a political prophet, he has been a great light to the people; and that his positions are rooted in facts and truths, in justice, equity and freedom, I could never have consented to occupy this honourable place which your favour has this day assigned me. I believe his political principles to be true. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: John C. Calhoun (1782–1850) was one of the prominent figure of American politics in the first half of the nineteenth century. The son of a slaveholding South Carolina family, he served in the federal government in various capacities—as senator from his home state, as secretary of war and secretary of state, and as vice-president in the administrations of John Quincy Adams and Andrew Jackson. Calhoun was a staunch supporter of the interests of his state and region. His battle from tariff reform, aimed at alleviating the economic problems of the southern states, eventually led him to formulate his famous nullification doctrine, which asserted the right of states to declare federal laws null and void within their own boundaries. In the first full-scale biography of Calhoun in almost half a century, John Niven skillfully presents a new interpretation of this preeminent spokesman of the Old South. Deftly blending Calhoun’s public career with important elements of his private life, Niven shows Calhoun to have been at once a more consistent politician and a far more complex human being than previous historians have thought. Rather than history’s image of an assured, self-confident Calhoun, Niven reveals a figure who was in many ways insecure and defensive. Niven maintains that the War of 1812, which Calhoun helped instigate and which nearly resulted in the nation’s ruin, made a lasting impression on Calhoun’s mind and personality. From that point until the end of his life, he sought security first from the western Indians and the British while he was secretary of war, then from northern exploitation of southern wealth through what he regarded as manipulation of public policy while he was vice-president and a senator. He worked tirelessly to further the South’s slave-plantation system of economic and social values. He sought protection for a region that he freely admitted was low in population and poor in material resources, and he defended a position that he knew was morally inferior. Niven portrays Calhoun as a driven, tragic figure whose ambitions and personal desires to achieve leadership and compensate for a lack of inner assurance were often thwarted. The life he made for himself, the peace he felt on his plantation with his dependent retainers, and the agricultural pursuits that represented to him and his neighbors stability in a rapidly changing environment were beyond price. Calhoun sought to resist any menace to this way of life with all the force of his character and intellect. Yet in the end Calhoun’s headstrong allegiance to his region helped to destroy the very culture he sought to preserve and disrupted the Union he had hoped to keep whole. Niven’s masterful retelling of Calhoun’s eventful life is a model biography.
