Excerpt from Review of Hon. J. Collamer's Speech, Made in the Senate, on the 16th January, 1865: On the Bill for the Repeal of the Eighth Section of the Act of July 2d, 1864, Respecting Trade With the People of the Revolted StatesIn presenting this bill, the distinguished Senator from Vermont expressed his idea. Of its vast importance in the most. Emphatic terms. He says: I am entirely convinced in my own mind that unless this bill, or such a one as this in effect, be passed, we never shall subdue this insurrection, it never can be ended, it never will be ended. I regard it as the most important measure on which I have ever had occasion to speak in the Senate.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
