1 But the point of comparison which I wish to make here between the Roman and the American freedmen, is this : that the relation of patron and client, in the case of the Roman freedmen, must subsist some- where for our American freedmen. And as these latter owe their freedom, not to their late proprie- tors, but to the Government of the United States through the action of war, it follows that their moral tie of dependence is to the Government ; and between the Government and the freedmen there ...is that relation of patron and client. And if this be so, why then we have grand moral duties springing out of that relation, which should not and cannot rightly be avoided. And if that colored race is to live independently in the centre of our civilization, then the growth of Christianity, the prevalence of peace and prosperity, the stability of our political institutions, the progress of our empire, — these and other like universal interests, one and all, press upon the American mind and conscience the great question of homogeneity in American civilization.
