To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In the South thrift will take the place of waste ; voluntary labor directed by an enlightened self-interest will take the place of compulsory labor directed by the lash ; prov- ident abstinence will save for a reserved fund, that which has heretofore been lost in careless expenditure* Fixed capital will thus arise; towns will spring up; the industrial arts will be cultivated ; and prosperity and wealth will abound where want and poverty have pre- vailed. That rich southern soil with its generou...s cli- mate, is a mine of untold wealth. It needs but the hand of free industry to bring it forth. All this would greatly 19 contribute to lightening the load of our debt. These grateful people would gladly aid in the payment of the ransom for their redemption. My friends, every consideration which ought to influ- ence human conduct, requires that the ballot should be given to the black man. [ The protection of the black man himself requires it ; gratitude for his devoted loj'alty requires it ; the protec- tion of our civilization from the influence of a degraded and barbarous element requires it ; the protection of our- selves from the insidious rebel ballot requires it; the speedy restoration of the rebel states to their proper re- lation to the General Government requires it ; the funda- mental principles of our Government require it ; the Golden Rule of our most holy religion commanding us to do unto others as we would that they should do unto lis, requires it.
