Synopsis
Excerpt from Speech of Matt H. Carpenter: At the Dedication of the Memorial Hall, Beloit College, July 1869; The Mission and the Future Foreign Policy of the United States
Let me pause in thought one moment at the close of the latewar,and asking you to recall vour emotions as the war progressed, your doubts, your fears, themagnitude of the conflict. The bitterness of our ene mies, the unfriendly attitude of foreign nations, all the obstacles. Overcome, the dangers past then let me ask if you do not believe that the hand of God in an especial manner led us through this sea of troubles tothedry land of peace? Ifyou believe your bible you do believe that God interfered by Special providences,to secure the deliverence of the children of Israel, from the land of Egypt. Turn to that his tory once more, and read again of the successive plagues that fell like so many blows upon the heart of Egypt, before she would consent that her slaves might go forth. Then consider the similar conduct of the south how without war, slavery would have been continued how long after the war had begun, the south might have laid down their arms and kept the slaves; how after the war was ended, the south might have determined the question of negro suffa rage; and how by repeated obduracy amounting to absolute stupidity, the south has forced the govern ment to free the slaves and finally raise them to the full enjoyment oflegal and political rights; then let me ask do you see no parallel?
