Speech of Col. Curtis M. Jacobs, on the Free Colored Population of Maryland (Classic Reprint): Delivered in the House of Delegates, on the 17th of February, 1860 - Couverture souple
Synopsis
A vivid 1860 speech argues that the United States must confront deep sectional conflict by addressing Maryland’s free colored population and the rise of abolitionist influence.
Delivered in the Maryland House of Delegates, the address frames national tensions over slavery, union, and state policy. It mixes moral, political, and economic arguments to justify intense measures against free Blacks in Maryland and to critique Northern abolitionism and foreign influence.
Readers will see how this era’s rhetoric tied citizenship, liberty, and regional loyalty to a plan for population management, colonization, and political succession. The speaker links events abroad and at home to fears about the Union’s future and to proposals for policy changes.
- Explanations of the North–South split, abolitionism, and concerns about national union.
- Critiques of British influence and colonial policy as they relate to American slavery debates.
- Discussion of colonization efforts and their perceived failures, especially in Africa and Liberia.
- Arguments about Maryland’s free Black population and proposed legislative remedies.
Ideal for readers interested in pre–Civil War politics, constitutional debates, and the rhetoric used to justify restrictive policy in the South.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book explores the heated debate surrounding free Black populations in the American South during the 1860s, a period marked by escalating tensions between abolitionists and slaveholders. The author, a prominent figure in Maryland politics, delivers a powerful speech to the House of Delegates, arguing that the presence of free Black people is a dangerous threat to the stability of the state and the nation. He contends that their freedom undermines the social order and economic prosperity of the South, while also making a compelling case for the re-enslavement of free Black populations. The author meticulously analyzes the history of slavery in Maryland, outlining the complex social and political dynamics that shaped the state's racial landscape. He further explores the role of the British Empire in fueling abolitionist movements and argues that emancipation would pave the way for the establishment of a tyrannical aristocracy in America, mirroring the monarchical systems of Europe. The book delves into the legal framework surrounding free Black populations in Maryland, meticulously outlining the limitations placed upon them and revealing how the state's laws effectively rendered their freedom a mere facade. This insightful and often provocative work offers a unique glimpse into the fiercely debated issue of race and slavery in the antebellum South. The author's impassioned voice illuminates the anxieties and fears that gripped the Southern states as the nation teetered on the brink of Civil War.
