What reading level is Constitutional Amendments Speech of Hon Henry J Raymond of New York On the book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The gentleman from Ohio converted me to that view of the subject, and although he relinquished or waived it himself, I could not. I voted against a proposition which seemed tome so unjust and so injurious, not only to the whites of the southern States, but to the colored race itself. Well, sir, that amendment was rejected in the Senate, and the proposition, as embodied in the commit- tee's repoi't, comes before us in a very differ- ent form. It is now proposed to base repre- sentation upon suff...rage, upon the number of voters, instead of upon the aggregate popula- tion in every State of the Union. And as I believe that to be essentially just, and likely to remedy the unequal representation of which complaint is so justly made, I shall give it my vote.
The third amendment embodied in this re- port is of an entirely different character. It provides that until the year 1870 all persons within the States lately in rebellion who "vol- untarily adhered to the rebellion and gave it aid and comfort'' shall be " excluded from the right of voting for members of Congress and for electors of President and Vice President of the United States.
