Excerpt from The Works of Charles Sumner, Vol. 6 This speech, at the time of its delivery, was entitled in some quarters "Emancipation the Cure of the Rebellion," which certainly showed an appreciation of its meaning.

Excerpt from The Works of Charles Sumner, Vol. 14 Our majorities in Massachusetts are large, but so are our responsibilities. From the historic character of the Commonwealth, from the position it has occupied in the warfare with Slavery, and from its fame as the home of ideas, we cannot afford to be sluggish or indif forent nor can we break up into disjointed squads. It is not enough, if we give a majority sufficient to elect our candidates we must make the majority command ing, controlling, so as to be an example and a power in the land. Massachusetts ideas and interests are to be maintained and advanced, not merely here at home, but in the nation. Besides State ofiicers, we choose at this election members of Congress, and a Legislature which will elect a Senator of the United States. Therefore must we regard our duties to the nation, the first of which is to make Massachusetts the bulwark of the national cause.

Excerpt from The Works of Charles Sumner, Vol. 13 Whereas the inland postage on a letter through out the United States is three cents, while the ocean postage on a similar letter to Great Britain, under a recent convention, is twelve cents, and on a letter to France is thirty cents, being a burdensome tax, amounting often to a prohibition of foreign correspondence, yet letters can be carried at less cost on sea than on land; and whereas, by increasing correspondence, and also by bringing into the mails mailable matter often now clandestinely conveyed, cheap ocean postage would become self-supporting; and whereas cheap ocean postage would tend to quicken commerce, to diffuse knowledge, to promote the intercourse of families and friends separated by the ocean, to multiply the bonds of peace and goodwill among men and nations, to advance the progress of liberal ideas, and thus, while important to every citizen, it would become the active ally of the merchant, the emigrant, the philanthropist, and the friend of liberty: Therefore. Be it resolved, That the President of the United States be requested to open negotiations with the European powers, particularly with Great Britain, France, and Germany, for the establishment of cheap ocean postage.
