A propos de cet article

Small 8vo; (3), 4-87 pages; Booklet in original self wrappers, contents clean and secure in a modern binding of red polished buckram with gilt lettering at spine; cream endpapers; minor ex-libris markings - small bookplate and LC surplus duplicate release stamp on rear ep; faint tide mark at lower corner of first third of leaves. Rare and interesting Carolina document - includes Governor George McDuffie's hostile response to the abolition of slavery in the United Kingdom and the British West Indies. In December of 1835 the South Carolina Assembly asserted that the non-slaveholding states should make Abolitionist Societies illegal.

In 1834 he became a major general of the South Carolina Militia. In 1821 he published a pamphlet in which strict states' rights were strongly denounced; yet in 1832 he became one of the greater nullifiers. In 1832 he was a prominent member of the South Carolina Nullification Convention, and drafted its address to the people of the United States. He served as governor in 1834—1836. From 1843 until 1846 he was a member of the U. S. Senate, supporting the leading Democratic measures. McDuffie became an eloquent champion of state sovereignty. Influenced in large measure by Thomas Cooper, he made it his special work to convince the people of the South that the downfall of protection was essential to their material progress. In opposing the 1828 Tariff of Abominations he used the illustration that forty bales of every one hundred went to pay tariffs and therefore Northern interests.
