These things are not done in a corner, but in the open light of the nation's observation. The proof, sir, is upon almost every page that records the deliberations of our great national councils, — not merely avowed, but 164 ADDRESSES ON SLAVERY. acted upon, and the national sanction in many instances obtained ; where that is not possible, its connivance secured. To such lengths has this demoralization pro- ceeded, that we appear to have lost all sense of right and wrong, to have forgotten that ...there is a God that judgeth, and, like hardened criminals, to boast of our shame. And what people is it, sir, that slavery has dragged down into this depth of national iniquity, this Gehenna of abominations, this Dead Sea of moral obliquity and indifference to all the principles of justice, and of open rebellion against God and the requirements of his law"? A Protestant nation sprung from a Puritan ancestry ; the noblest, sir, in many respects, upon the face of the earth ; apart from this foul abomination, the freest and most enlightened upon which the bright sun shines in his course ; one which, if it can but succeed in throw- ing off this mighty incubus, may yet mount to the high- est pitch of national grandeur and glory, and subserve the most important purposes in the mighty march of our race to its destined regeneration.
