George Julian: “Such a policy would not be American, but European.”

But as to slavery he seemed to have no conscience, regarding it as a matter of total moral indifference, and thus completely confounding the distinction between right and wrong.

He was the most conspicuous public rascal of his time, but was far from being alone in his odious notoriety.

But this treatment of the Abolitionists was manifestly unjust.

He was a man of undoubted bravery, and had made a most honorable record, both as a soldier and a civilian, upon ample trial in both capacities.
