Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life and Letters of Roscoe Conkling Orator, Statesman, Advocate Soon after his death a brief mmemorial was published by order of the Legislature of the State of New York; but it was deemed by many of his friends inadequate to com memorate the life and public services of one who, for so many years, was the recognized leader of the Republican party in his native State, and one of its champions in the nation. The effort has been conscientiously made to set right, before a busy people, one Whose repugnance to denying newspaper rumors and calumnies, and whose hatred of personal explanations, have allowed the world to remain in ignorance of his true character.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Hon. Roscoe Conkling: The Statesman, Orator, and Jurist, and the Advocate of Freedom Humanity Justice Equal Rights 1. The Great Battle - Freedom vs. Slavery - Democratic Government vs. The Foes of Freedom and Equality. "If, besides being powerful, a people has set up institutions in which no trace of aristocracy or kingcraft is tolerated, it has voluntarily elected to make its own soil the theater of a contest which has been waging since time began between oppression and liberty. It is the mission and foreordained destiny of a people assuming to found and maintain a democratic government, to wrestle and grapple with the foes of freedom and equality within and without; and the struggle now raging in America is only the old battle for human rights transplanted from the Old World to the New." - (Speech of Roscoe Conkling, at mass-meeting in Union Square, N. Y., April 11, 1863.) In this grand battle for human rights - of "liberty" against "oppression," of "democratic government" against "the foes of freedom and equality" - no champion has borne a more brilliant or distinguished part than Roscoe Conkling - none whose battle has been waged with greater ability or power, or crowned with grander victories for the victims of tyranny. 2. Thirty-sixth Congress - The Beginning of the Rebellion. Mr. Conkling entered Congress - the House of Representatives - in December, 1859. The Republic was in the presence of an alarming crisis - menaced by a great peril. Oligarchal "turbulence" had "festered into rebellion."

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Memorial Address on Roscoe Conkling Mr. Husted, addressing the Chair, spoke as follows: Mr. Speaker - At fifty minutes after one this morning Roscoe Conkling passed away. When I make that statement I think this House will unanimously concur with me that we have a right to deviate from the usual course whereby we offer resolutions five minutes before the hour of adjournment. I think this House will concur with me that a man so distinguished as he has been, that a man who has served this State so many years so faithfully and so well, who won for himself the first rank among American orators, American publicists and American statesmen, deserves especial consideration from the members of the Legislature of the State of New York. It is, sir, but nine years ago since, in this room, I nominated him for Senator of the United States. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Letter to Hon. Roscoe Conkling: Senator of the United States, Washington Sir: If you were a man of less note; indeed if you did not possess capacity equal to Senatorial dignity, and were not sufficiently versed in statesmanship to know the teachings and the tendencies of history; and again, if it was not conceded that you were familiar with the Constitution, and its jurisprudence, I should not now address you. But, sir, this, as well as the fact that the destiny of the nation and the future of your own fame are at stake, prompt me to the exercise of my right as your constituent, and my judgment as your peer, to warn, to entreat and to advise you. That you may be at no loss to understand the object of my solicitude, I will state to you at once that I deny the oratorical assertion of the managers of Impeachment in presenting themselves to the Senate, that they came there to represent and as representatives of the People of the United States. The assertion, sir, is a monstrous lie, to bridge over a monstrous fraud. Those who made it knew it to be false as a fact, infamous as an assertion, and unworthy of belief even by the willing ears which listened to the loose eloquence of Bingham or heard the bottled thunder of Butler. For, however much you may gild a fraud, or paint a lie, the sober truth will rub away the varnish, for "The eternal years of God are hers." It has been well said, that, to overthrow a State, the crime must be wrought in the name of the State, and that to enslave a people the tyranny must be in the name of the people. Impeachment, sir, is not the work, or the demand of the people; its origin can claim no such vaunted paternity, but, Minerva-like, it sprung fully armed from one, who, whether he may be "The wisest, brightest, meanest of mankind."

Download or read book Galahad in the Gilded Age written by Linda Dowling and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2021-03-26 with total page 544 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Galahad in the Gilded Age is the story of George William Curtis, regarded at the beginning of his career as little more than a handsome, amusing young man from a socially prominent family. His life would change dramatically after four years traveling in Europe and the Levant, from which he returned to find himself a literary celebrity—“the Howadji”—following the appearance of two books describing his Middle East experiences that some considered so provocatively sensuous as to border on obscenity. Yet during this early celebrity, Curtis would find his life changing profoundly—discovering marital happiness, facing financial bankruptcy and finding himself irresistibly drawn into increasingly bitter controversies: the national battle against slavery, against wide-spreading political corruption, and against what Curtis regarded as a wholly unreasonable resistance to granting women the right to vote. George William Curtis, a contemporary would conclude after his death, was “the best knight of our time.”
