From the historic character of the Commonwealth, from the position it has occupied in the warfare with Slavery, and from its fame as the home of ideas, we cannot afford to be sluggish or indif forent nor can we break up into disjointed squads. It is not enough, if we give a majority sufficient to elect our candidates we must make the majority command ing, controlling, so as to be an example and a power in the land. Massachusetts ideas and interests are to be maintained and advanced, not merely here at home, but in the nation. Besides State ofiicers, we choose at this election members of Congress, and a Legislature which will elect a Senator of the United States. Therefore must we regard our duties to the nation, the first of which is to make Massachusetts the bulwark of the national cause.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Charles Sumner, Vol. 14: His Complete Works The seat of Hon. John P. Stockton, as Senator from New Jersey, was contested at this session of the Senate, on the ground of irregularity in the election. The Judiciary Committee, by their Chairman, Mr. Trumbull, reported that he "was duly elected, and is entitled to his seat, ' and in their report stated the case: - "The only question involved in the decision of Mr. Stockton's right to a seat is, whether an election by a plurality of votes of the members of the Legislature of New Jersey, in joint meeting assembled, in pursuance of a rule adopted by the joint meeting itself, is valid. The protestants insist that it is not; and they deny Mr. Stockton's right to a seat, because, as they say, he was not appointed by a majority of the votes of the joint meeting of the Legislature." The debate on this question showed earnestness and feeling. Mr. Fessenden, of Maine, used strong language: "I was exceedingly surprised - more so, I will say, than I ever was before, at a judicial decision, in my life - at the opinion to which the Committee on the Judiciary arrived in relation to this matter." Mr. Trumbull defended the report. Mr. Sumner followed. Mr. President, - When the Senator from Illinois rose to speak, I had made up my mind to say nothing in this debate; but topics have been introduced by him which I am unwilling should pass without notice.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Works of Charles Sumner, Vol. 5 Motive is to Crime as soul to body; and it is only when we comprehend the motive that we can truly comprehend the Crime. Here the motive is found in Slavery and the rage for its extension. Therefore, by logical necessity, must Slavery be discussed, -not indi rectly, timidly, and sparingly, but directly, openly, and thoroughly. It must be exhibited as it is, alike in its influence and its animating character, so that not only outside, but inside, may be seen.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Works of Charles Sumner, Vol. 7 Speech in the Senate, on his Bill for the Confiscation of Property and the Liberation of Slaves Belonging to Rebels, May 19, 1862. Wherefore he deserves to be punished, not only as an enemy, bat also as a traitor, both to you and to us. And indeed treason is as much worse than war as it is harder to guard against what is secret than what is open, - and as much more hateful, as with enemies men make treaties again, and put faith in them, but with one who is discovered to be a traitor nobody ever enters into covenant, or trusts him for the future. - Xenophon, Hellenica, Book II. ch. 8, 29.

President, Throughout the long struggle anterior to the Rebellion, and then throughout the Rebellion itself, Slavery had two voices by which it was heard in this Chamber and in the country. The first was that by which its continued existence was vin dicated, or, if you please, the right of Slavery; the other was that of State Rights. By these two voices was Slavery heard. Happily, the first is silenced; but the other is still sounding among us, crying out against those generous efforts by which Human Rights are as sured.
