Or, if we become divided, the Southern section may extend its conquests
into the whole southern part of the American continent, and spread the
institution of slavery over that vast domain. God may have purposed that
the good which has flowed to the African race in this land by its
connection with us, shall be extended to millions more, not by

one of its worst forms. Some it makes fierce, others, flat, according as
the victim is, naturally, more or less amiable.
Your mother gave you in charge to me in her last sickness, and I must do
all in my power for your best good. I have, therefore, told you some
things which I have seen and considered. These you must now add to the
facts of your "inductive philosophy." Your definition of "pro-slavery,"
and "friends of oppression," is a fair illustration of a prevailing
