Excerpt from The Hireling and the Slave I ask permission to inscribe the following verses to you. If not a fit offering to your taste and judgement, they at least give me an opportunity for saying how much I admire the wit, intellect and learning, which you have devoted with so much success to every noble purpose; which have never failed friend or stranger in distress, nor shrunk from a toil or sacrifice required by Justice, Humanity, or Generosity. The most exalted station in society is that of the Advocate who employs distinguished legal attainments and abilities to defend the unfortunate, vindicate truth and right, and maintain law, order and established government - and this station is universally admitted to be yours.

Excerpt from The Hireling and the Slave, Chicora: And Other Poems The sale of slaves is thought to be a great evil to the slave. But what is it substantially more than a transfer Of labor from one employer to another? Is this an evil to the laborer? Would it be considered an evil by the European hireling if the laws required every master, before he dismissed his workmen, to se cure to them another employer? Would it be an evil to the hireling to be certain Of Obtaining work - to be safe from the misery Of having no employer, no work, while he is starving for bread? The sale Of the slave is the form in which the laws secure the slave from this misery Of the hireling - secure to him a certainty Of employment and a certainty of subsistence. The hireling has neither. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The Yankee Slave Driver, or the Black and White Rivals Hence it is that the literature of slavery has assumed, during its brief existence, various phases; but it has in these latter days, achieved a new development, which seems to possess greater power, and to gain a stronger hold on public interest, than any it had previously dis played. We mean the department of slave-novels works of imagination, based upon facts, as theysure con stantly exhibited and developed by the operation of slavery. Several works of this class, possessing great power and merit, have already appeared; and it is to be hoped that the supply is not yet exhausted.

Excerpt from Bond-Slaves A richly-growing July had gone by. Now songless August was in, oppressive with its heat, in which birds and cattle alike kept silence in whatever shade they could find. All around the spoils Of labour were abundant. The month became limb-aching unto pain with its work, and heavy O' mornings with its short, over-deep slumber.

Excerpt from The Slave Son I did not start in life however with any particular sympathy for the Negroes. There were no scenes of cruelty or oppression in our homestead to awaken my pity, - far otherwise; and while our domestics presented all those features of an enslaved people so repulsive to the free, I learned from the first to re gard them, as the children of all slaveholders do, in the light of a species of cattle, - I do not mean be cause they were bought and sold, and their labour unrewarded, I mean something worse still, - I mean that neither their total dismissal of all the proprie ties and decencies of life, nor their immorality, ever shocked my principles or affected my mind any more than the habits of the beasts of burden working with them and yet the Negroes were always with us and about us, IO also were the domestic animals belonging to the house.
