More from Charles Sumner
It applies an arrogant and unrelenting ostracism to all who express themselves against Slavery.
Controlled by such a code, employing such representatives, sustained by such agencies, animated by such Furies, and producing such fruits of tears and bitterness, it must be open to question.
They are but leaders of the two contending factions into which the Slave Power is divided.
