I shall now Slightly speak of some Of the effects of slavery, which, though apparently indi rect, are necessary. We have seen how carefully all mental improvement was guarded against in the slave; and also how Slight was the protection of his person. His morals are not better cared for. Honesty is, to be sure, cherished, 01 may be presumed to be; although where temptation is all around, and the sanctions Of any virtue are so slight, this one cannot be secure. Another, quite as important to the character, though not to the master's interest, has less protection; that is chastity. It is perhaps idle to Speak Of what there is so little pretence of regarding. The domestic relations of the slave have no protection whatever in the law, and in practice, it' is nearly the same thing. The ceremony of marriage is sometimes performed by a clergyman or a justice, but quite as Often there is no farther preliminary to male and female living together, than simply taking each other's word, which is not thought very binding, for they divorce and marry again at pleasure. What a mockery indeed would be the marriage rites, with the solemn declaration. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Remarks Upon Slavery and the Slave-Trade: Addressed to the Hon. Henry Clay Sir, Concurring with you fully as to the unjustifiable course pursued by the northern abolitionists, and deprecating all interference with domestic slavery, otherwise than that which may emanate from, or be in co-operation with, the slave-holding states; I am constrained to differ with you upon the main positions expressed in your late eloquent discourse as regards the destiny of our black population. The acclamations with which your opinions upon this vital subject have been greeted by the great majority of the nation, and the sentiments of exalted patriotism which are known to have prompted them, more particularly subject them to be tested by the judgment of every reflecting member of the Republic.

Download or read book Remarks on Dr Channing s Slavery Classic Reprint written by James Trecothick Austin and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-18 with total page 58 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Remarks on Dr. Channing's Slavery Presuming that most, if not all the persons by whom this pamphlet will be perused, have already read the remarks on Dr. Channing's Slavery, it is not con sidered absolutely necessary to republish the whole of the pamphlet, though this would have been done if objections had not been made to it by the person to whom the copy-right of the remarks is secured. It was intended, before this was ascertained, to republish the whole, believing that the lack of all argument, in support of our system of slavery, founded either on religion, reason or morality, would be, by that means, rendered as apparent, as the most fanatical abolitionist could desire. The remarks, therefore, to which the comments apply, have been selected, which, with some others, will be sufficient to show the spirit of the book and the intention of the author in publishing it. As the weight of a straw affects a balance, in like manner it is hoped that these comments may have their mite of influence on public opinion, when thrown into the balance of weightier, and much more powerful arguments, in favor of the abolition of slavery. A: the Scriptures were designed to inculcate the duties of doing justly, and loving mercy, and express of reiterated assertions, God's abhorrence of every species of oppression, it appeared to me, when they were brought forward in support of the system of slavery, that something should be done to rescue them from the foul reproach. They were likewise intended to show that history nowhere sanctions as system of slavery, originating in the nefarious and capital crime of man stealing. This was the actuating motive of the writer of the comments. For the success of the design, we are not accountable; it is the widow's mite - and as such, it is respectfully offered to the reader.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Remarks Upon Slavery: Occasioned by Attempts Made to Circulate Improper Publications on the Southern States A number of publications have recently been sent to this place, and to other places at the South, by some of the Abolition Associations at the North, for the purpose of distribution. One of these papers was placed in my hands by a person to whom it was directed - and though it has since been returned to the quarter from whence it came, yet I deem it not improper to make a few remarks upon the subject to which it related; especially as all those with whom I am associated in life, have, in this subject, an important interest. It seems somewhat extraordinary, that any set of rational men, in this enlightened age, should be so regardless of the ordinary courtesies of life, as to desire to interrupt the harmony and quiet of an unoffending people, who are legally pursuing their own business, within their own limits, without any disposition to interfere with the organization of society in any other section of country but their own. There certainly seems very little in the conduct of the Abolition Societies at the North, to recommend them to the favourable regard of the inhabitants of tills quarter. They seem to speak and to act, as though they imagined that an entire revolution in the state of society here, would be a matter of but little consequence, if such an event could be brought about through their instrumentality. They speak of slavery as a system of iniquity, at variance with the revealed will of God, and a continued violation of his moral law - they denounce it as a practical denial of the declaration, that God made of one blood all the inhabitants of the world, and as a disregard of the rules prescribed for the intercourse of men with one another. In utter disregard of the principle that the regulation of slavery belongs exclusively to those amongst whom it exists, these officious intermeddlers take upon themselves to pronounce it an evil of serious magnitude, and then assume to themselves a right to remove it, either with, or without the consent of those whose interests are to be affected by their proceedings; and they pursue their object in violation of the ordinary maxims of moderation or prudence.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from On Slavery Although the laws thus deny the rights of human na ture to the slave, the passions of lust and of vengeance, are not to be controlled by these enactments. People are provoked by the disobedience or carelessness of a slave, who would feel ashamed to be thrown into a rage by the waywardness of a horse. Those who are convers ant among slaveholders, find them always a peculiarly irritable race, easily thrown into a towering passion, or rendered frantic with rage, even towards their equals in society, and especially towards mechanics and laborers. This is because their passions are accustomed to be ex cited towards their slaves, and to be allowed their full s00pe of gratification without restraint. Unless human nature is annihilated in slaveholders as well as in slaves. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Review of the Remarks on Dr. Channing's Slavery We Object further to the spirit of the Remarks, that it is a wrangling spirit. The writer, as we shall see upon examination of his pages, fights for victory, not for the truth. By this he does great mischief. The question of Slavery demands all the coolness, all the elevation of mind and integrity of purpose which can be brought to it. It is at best a fearful, a dark question. The mind groans under it and is borne down. We are already too much harassed by the difficulties which beset us, too much posed by the magnitude Of the evils threatened, too near being incapacitated for exertion at beholding the immensity of our task, the liveliness of the Opposition, and the moral apathy of men. Perplex us not by ingenious sophistry. Let the spirit of contention prevail in the discussions of this subject, and we are lost: lost to the integrity of purpose which alone will merit, to the calmness of judgment which alone will ensure, success. No greater injury can be done to the community, than by encouraging them to make the subject of Slavery one Of the many, upon which spleen is vented, men abused, vanity gratified, and truth neglected.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from American Slavery and Colour The sight of a few Slaver Sales has a wonderful effect in awakening the feelings on the subject of Slavery. The thing is seen to be an undeniable reality - no mere invention of the novelist. From time to time, the spectacle of an auction-stand on. which one man is selling another, flashes back upon the mind. For three years, I hare been haunted by recollections of that saddening scene, and taken a gradually deepening interest in American Slavery - its present condition, its mysterious future. Haying already referred to the subject, I should not again hare intruded on public notice, but for the recent exciting discussions concerning Slavery, the protracted struggle in Kansas, and the probability of further contests between Slavery and Freedom, consequent on the organisation of new States in the southern section of the Union. The present volume, tracing the progress of Slavery, and presenting such other particulars as may afford a comprehensive view of the subject, is offered as a small contribution to a department of literature daily increasing in interest - an expression of sympathy from an unenrolled adherent of a great and sacred cause.
