Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Charles Sumner: An Eulogy Delivered Before the Faculty and Societies of Kalamazoo College, by Hon. Chas. S. May, June 16, 1874 In that body of slave-holders and slavery-supporters, sumner received no political or social recognition. He was assigned no place on the Committees, and when in the summer of 1852 he raised his voice for the first time in that splendid and memorable speech against the Fugitive Slave Law, he met the scornful and defiant glances of an enraged Senate. Other great speeches succeeded, arraigning Slavery at the bar of the public judgment and conscience. Then followed the murderous assault of Brooks, which planted physical, nervous torture in his frame and shortened his life. By and-by came the war, and then, as the haughty representatives of slavery retired, sumner for the first time found himself with the majority and was entrusted with the practical direction of meas ures and policies. How he filled that important chairmanship which was then given him, until within recent years he was dismissed from it under circumstances of honor to him but of everlasting shame to those who did it all the world knows. And all the while he was true to Freedom and the Union, never losing heart or hope. Finally, at the last, when the war had long been over and when the great work of reconstruction was finished, there came that separa tion from the administration of his party and from old political and personal friends, which tried anew his courage, and furnished the last severe test of his absolute obedience to his convictions of duty.

Download or read book Charles Sumner written by William Mason Cornell and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-09-17 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Charles Sumner: Memoir and Eulogies; A Sketch of His Life by the Editor, an Original Article by Bishop Gilbert Haven, and the Eulogies Pronounced by Eminent Men The editor is the writer of the first article in this book further than this, he is not the author, but the compiler of the book. In the death of such a man as Charles Sumner, it seems eminently fitting, and of the utmost importance to the present and coming generations, that the most perfect record possible of his life and deeds should be brought together as a work for future reference. Such a book must be of great value. The best way to accomplish this is to collect together the expressed opinions of those who were co-laborers with him, and who shared largely in his views and confidence. This is the object of the book. The short memoir by the editor is the first article. The second is by Rev. Bishop Gilbert Haven, who knew him well, and participated with him in the great work of his life, to wit, breaking the chains of human bondage. These two sketches of Mr. Sumner have been written expressly for this work. The address of Hon. N. P. Banks, his friend and political colleague in his public services, takes the next place.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life of Charles Sumner In the belief that a Life of Charles Sumner, our great Senator, written in a somewhat popular style, would be welcomed by the public, this work has been carefully prepared from the most authentic sources. The writers have had access to private papers, and other sources of information, which have enabled them to give some hitherto unpublished incidents and letters. The works of Mr. Sumner have been carefully examined, and fitting selections from his speeches have been incorporated in the biography. His addresses are an integral part of the history of the times in which he lived, and they largely reveal his character. A full survey of Mr. Sumner's public career has not been attempted.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Works of Charles Sumner, Vol. 8 This article appeared originally under the title, "Monograph from an Old Note-Book." Beyond the curiosity of the discussion was the object, at a critical moment, of contrasting the diplomatic representative of our fathers at Paris and that of Rebel Slavery, with a new appeal to France. It was in the same vein with the recent speech on Our Foreign Relations. In a famous speech, made in the House of Lords, March 6, 1838, against the Eastern slave-trade, Lord Brougham arrests the current of his eloquence by the following illustrative diversion. "I have often heard it disputed among critics, which of all quotations was the most appropriate, the most closely applicable to the subject-matter illustrated; and the palm is generally awarded to that which applied to Dr. Franklin the line in Claudian, - 'Eripuit fulmen c lo, mox sceptra tyrannis'; yet still there is a difference of opinion, and even that citation, admirably close as it is, has rivals."
