Book Description
Excerpt from The Philosophy of the American Rebellion I shall not dispute with Mr. Stephens his grand truth that Our new. Government is based upon exactly the opposite idea to that which forms the basis of the United States Gov ernment. I must say, however, I do not think the new sh'air any improvement; and the argu ments advanced in support of it are not such as were advanced by our forefathers. Perhaps, as he says. They were in error - they were funda mentally wrong, but I have still so greats veneration for the names of Washington, Jed'er son, Franklin, and their glorious compeers, that my mind is unwilling to substitute in their pla ees, Yancey and Keitt and Stephens and Davis.

Book Description
Excerpt from Political Writings, Vol. 1 of 2 When I left the building I remember saying to a friend that I did not see how the Corn Laws could survive the attacks to which they were exposed, and that I perceived, or thought I perceived, in the meeting I had just attended, the proofs of a public Opinion too powerful for the land-owners much longer to resist. The hour of triumph for the League was, in fact, even nearer than I anticipated. In the next year's session of Parliament, the British Ministry, with Sir Robert Peel at its head, came forward with a bill for removing the old restrictions on the trade in grain, and wresting from the landed proprietors the monopoly on which they had relied as one of the main sources of their prosperity. The bill became a law; the long and vehement struggle was closed by the defeat of the aristocracy; Peel, now the object of their displeasure, though thanked by the nation, withdrew from the Ministry; but he, like Mr. Cobden, found his reward in the appreciation of his country men.
