Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Letter of Commodore Stockton on the Slavery Question
The general Government has been agitated compromise after compromise has been made, and proved, as was to be expected, only the means of postponing, rather than of settling the ques tion; until at last things have reached a condition that real danger to the Union seems to be apprehended by the wisest men of both sections of the country. It is time for men now to speak out, calmly but fearlessly. Whatever has been wrong should be made right, and the question settled now and forever. We should not meanly shrink from our just responsibilities and put them upon our children.
