To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
L Meanwhile slavery had revolutionized the Government. The great principles' of Magna Charta and tho Declaration of Independence had ceased to havef* practical existence in a large part of the Union. Liberty of speech, freedom of the press, and trial by jury had, to a great extent, disappeared in the slave States. Indeed, that portion of the so-called Republic had ceased to be a government of law, and had becomeja government of a tyrannic, cruel oligarchy, more odious, despicable and cruel than... any on earth. There was no redress for any outrage, however cruel, if perpetrated in behalf and at the behest of slavery. The vengeance of the slaveholder against the man who spoke or published in behalf of liberty was sharp, speedy, and unrelenting. The bowie-knife and the bludgeon, the halter, atd even the stake, were the in- struments of violence and torture resorted to by lynch judges who found any bold enough to question the divinity of the " peculiar institution. " In the slave States of this Union an anti slavery man had no rights which a slaveholder felt bound to respect.
