What reading level is A Brief View of Constitutional Powers Showing That the Union Consisted of Indep book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Slavery is simply an inside form of government, and an excellent one it has proved for the negro race. Like all others it may be im- proved in its character without disturbing its nature. Abolitionists only repeat, without at all adding to, what Montesquieu has said on the subject. His views are those —49— of oue who, a wituess of an institution in its expiring con- dition, in liis own country, applied them, not altogether philosophically, to the somewhat difl'ereut and newly estab- lished serf...dom of another race ou another continent. With- out adverting to its sanction by Divine Law, he attacks it as '* opposite to the law of nature. " (Spirit of Laws, 2nd ed. I. 339. ) The exact meaning of this view is that were the author of it to create a world, it would be one with an alteration or improvement in that respect. Like all others of his day, he was of course ignorant of the fact that slavery always existed in Africa ; and that, consequently, it is natural ; unless, indeed, we are to hold that to be unnatural which is proved to be the invariable natural tendency in certain races of man.
