Excerpt from The Advocate of Peace and Universal Brotherhood, Vol. 1: January, 1846 The hearts of the sons of men are full of evil, and madness is in their hearts while they live. For I know not a greater piece of folly and madness than the madness of war. But, according to the declarations of ancient prophecy, we are encouraged to look forward with confidence to that period, when wars shall cease to the ends of the earth, and when the nations shall delight themselves in an abundant peace. May the God of mercy hasten it in his time. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Advocate of Peace, and Universal Brotherhood, Vol. 1: May, 1846 Friend burritt, - Whether it was one of your Manchester friends, or whether, indeed, it was nothing less than a dove from your own Ameri can woods that dropt one of your Olive Leaves in my cab, - I won't stop to consider. It's enough that I've read the Leaf again and again, and can't help thanking you for it. Can't help admiring how that you, a poor man not worth a dollar in the world, as you say of yourself, Should be scattering thousands and thousands of these healing Leaves about America - Leaves in their meaning and intention worth all the laurels that ever grew out of dead men's graves, made SO foul and rank with dead men's blood. Your Leaf fell into my hands just after I'd read Mr. Adams's speech in Congress, where he stands upon the Bible for his right to Oregon, and would cut throats according to his notion of Genesis! Foolish Old gentle man! He can't have many years' mortal breath in him, and therefore it is sad to see him puffing and puffing to blow the embers of war into a blaze - to see him, as I may say, ramming down murderous bullets, and wad ding muskets with leaves from the Bible! But there's a sort of religion that would sharpen the sword itself on the stone tables of Moses. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
