IN DEFENCE OF AMERICAN SLAVERY;

Delivered September 19th and 20th, and Published December 1843:

WITH AN OUTLINE OF

THE BIBLE ARGUMENT AGAINST SLAVERY.

"Out upon such folly! The man who cannot see that involuntary domestic slavery, as it exists among us, is founded upon the principle of taking by force that which is another's, has simply no moral sense." ROBERT J. BRECKINRIDGE.

"It is a debt we owe to the purity of our religion, to show that it is at variance with the law that warrants slavery. PATRICK HENRY.

O execrable son! so to aspire

Above his brethren, to himself assuming
Authority usurped, from God not given:
He gave us, only over beast, fish, fowl,
Dominion absolute; that right we hold
By his donation; but man over men
He made not lord; such title to himself
Reserving, human left from human free. MILTON,

Cincinnati:
