Book excerpt: Excerpt from Remarks Upon Slavery and the Slave-Trade: Addressed to the Hon. Henry Clay Sir, Concurring with you fully as to the unjustifiable course pursued by the northern abolitionists, and deprecating all interference with domestic slavery, otherwise than that which may emanate from, or be in co-operation with, the slave-holding states; I am constrained to differ with you upon the main positions expressed in your late eloquent discourse as regards the destiny of our black population. The acclamations with which your opinions upon this vital subject have been greeted by the great majority of the nation, and the sentiments of exalted patriotism which are known to have prompted them, more particularly subject them to be tested by the judgment of every reflecting member of the Republic.
