Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Report of Mr. Henry Hughes of Mississippi: Read Before the Southern Convention at Vicksburg, May 10, 1859 on the Subject of the African Apprentice System

And as of these ele ments the chief is association, each labor-system will be characterized by the character of its associates and their association.
