Anson Burlingame, of Massachusetts, in the United States House of Representatives, June 21, 1856 This edition of Mr. Burlingame's Speech is printed at the suggestion of some of his constituents who have heretofore been his political Oppo neuts, but who believe that on this occasion he said the right word, in the right way, and at the right time. Considering the circumstances under which it was delivered, the speech has been regarded by persons of various political parties, and from differ ent sections of the country as equally remarkable for the boldness of its tone and for its freedom from extravagant and offensive epithets. The writer of this brief note is an old resident of Mr. Burlingame's district, but has uniformly voted against him, whenever he has been a can didate for any political office. An old-fashioned Conservative, a \veb ster tig, the paramount principles of his political creed have been, the preservation of the constitution and Tm: union. To this end con cessions and compromises were approved, and all who Opposed them were censured. But since it appears that all concessions must be in favor of slavery, and all compromises that stood in the way of its extension are broken when the conditions favoring that interest are fulfilled: and, more over, when a determined and persistent effort is making to nationalize this sectional institution, and threats are thrown out that the Union will be dissolved if the slave power is checked in its arrogant assumptions, con sistency to long cherished principles requires that the true Conservative utter and defend the old doctrine of our illustrious statesman, liberty and union, now and forever, one and inseparable! It is gratifying to see so many patriots from all parties now uniting to maintain these principles. The recent outrages upon liberty, in Kansas and at W'ashington, have led thousands to see that there is but one great issue now pending in the politics of the country. The Democratic party has done justice to the President who has been false to these principles. The people will do justice to the party that follows his course. To the noble band whose rallying cry is Liberty and Union, this speech will, it is believed, be welcome. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One hundred and fifty years after Kansas was admitted to the Union, we still find ourselves fascinated by the specter of "Bleeding Kansas" and the violence that preceded the American Civil War by five years. Although ample attention has been devoted to understanding why territorial violence broke out in Kansas in 1856, of equal concern but less illuminated is the question of why government, both local and national, allowed the violence to continue unstanched for so long. This question is fundamentally about governance-its existence, exercise, limits, and continuance-and its study has ramifications for understanding both Kansas events and why the American experiment in government failed in 1861. In addition, the book also sheds light on the nature of democracy, the challenges of implanting it in distant environs, the necessity of cooperation at the various levels of government, and the value of strong leadership. To Govern the Devil in Hell uses the prism of governance to investigate what went wrong in territorial Kansas. From the first elections in late 1854 and early 1855, local government was tarnished with cries of illegitimacy that territorial officials could not ameliorate. Soon after, a shadow government was created which further impeded local management of territorial challenges. Ultimately, this book addresses why Presidents Franklin Pierce and James Buchanan failed to act, what hindered Congress from stepping into the void, and why and how the lack of effective governance harmed Kansas and later the United States.

Download or read book American Tyrannies in the Long Age of Napoleon written by Elizabeth Duquette and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2023-08-29 with total page 414 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What if the American experiment is twofold, encompassing both democracy and tyranny? That is the question at the core of this book, which traces some of ways that Americans across the nineteenth century understood the perversions tyranny introduced into both their polity and society. While some informed their thinking with reference to classical texts, which comprehensively consider tyranny's dangers, most drew on a more contemporary source—Napoleon Bonaparte, the century's most famous man and its most notorious tyrant. Because Napoleon defined tyranny around the nineteenth-century Atlantic world—its features and emergence, its relationship to democratic institutions, its effects on persons and peoples—he provides a way for nineteenth-century Americans to explore the parameters of tyranny and their complicity in its cruelties. Napoleon helps us see the decidedly plural forms of tyranny in the US, bringing their fictions into focus. At the same time, however, there are distinctly American modes of tyranny. From the tyrannical style of the American imagination to the usurping potential of American individualism, Elizabeth Duquette shows that tyranny is as American as democracy.
