To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Do you want more war 1 Are you not yet weary of contest ? Will you gather up the unex- ploded fragments of this prodigious magazine of all mischief, and heap them up for continued explosion ? Does not the South need peace? And, since free labor is inevitable, will you have it in its worst forms or its best ? Shall it be ignorant, impertinent, indo lent"? or, shall it be educated, self-respecting, moral, and self-sup porting 1 Will you have men as drudges, or will you have them as citizens ? Sin...ce they have vindicated the Government, and cemented its foundation stones with their blood, may they not offer the tribute of their support to maintain its laws and its policy ? It is better for religion ; it is better for political integri ty ; it is better for industry ; it is better for money if you will have that ground motive that you should educate the black man ; and, by education, make him a citizen. (Applause. ) They who refuse education to a black man, would turn the South into a vast poor-house, and labor into a pendulum, necessity vibrating be tween poverty and indolence.
