More from Charles Sumner
They are but leaders of the two contending factions into which the Slave Power is divided.
Far above any flickering light or battle-lantern of party is the everlasting sun of Truth, in whose beams are the duties of men.
The most distant are not without a present influence on our daily lives.
This will be the FREEDOM POWER, whose single object will be to resist the SLAVE POWER.
