Book Description
Excerpt from A Letter to the Hon. Horace Mann Since even under the aristocratic governments of the Old World, a cat is proverbially permitted to look at a king, much more, in this land of democracy, may a private individual address without previous introduction a Member of Congress. Undeniable is it, that our private individuals have not been slow to use and abuse this privilege, and numbers of them make it their business to bother public men on all occasions, in or out of season. Nor should I have been willing to follow so many bad examples, had you not, in some sense, yourself given the provocation. Some two months ago I happened to see in the Literary World, a brief and complimentary notice of your "Thoughts for a Young Man," which mentioned your holding up Stephen Girard as an example, and John Jacob Astor as a warning.

Book Description
Excerpt from New Dangers to Freedom, and New Duties for Its Defenders: A Letter by the Hon. Horace Mann to His Constituents, May 3, 1850 Gentlemen: - Having been called home on account of sickness in my family, I have just received, at this place, your kind invitation to meet and address my constituents of the 8th Congressional District, and to give them my "views and opinions upon the question of the immediate admission of California, and other questions now before Congress arising out of the acquisition of territory by the treaty with Mexico." A request from so high a source has almost the force of a command. Yet I dare not promise to comply. I am liable at any moment to be recalled, and, instead of speaking here, to vote there, upon the questions to which you refer. I might be summoned to return on the day appointed for us to meet. The only alternative, therefore, which is left me, is to address you by letter. This I will do, if I can find time. I shall thus comply with your request, in substance, if not in form. On many accounts, I have the extremest reluctance to appear before the public on the present occasion. My views, on some vital questions, differ most materially from those of gentlemen for whom I have felt the profoundest respect; and for some of whom I cherish the strongest personal attachment. But I feel, on the other hand, that my constituents, having entrusted to me some of their most precious interests, are entitled to know my "views and opinions" respecting the hopes and the dangers that encompass them. I shall not, therefore, take the responsibility of declining. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
