**This is an re-typeset reprint edition of an historical book originally published in the 1800s. It does not advocate racial discrimination or bigotry in today's society.** Utilizing Scripture, philosophy and reason, the author of this treatise demonstrates that the institution of African servitude as it existed in the antebellum South served to maintain social order by denying liberty to those who were as yet unprepared to make proper use of it. Foreshadowing certain political ideologies of our own day, the agenda of nineteenth-century Abolitionism is also exposed as an attempt to completely destroy constitutional government and to substitute a lawless egalitarianism in its place.

The War of 1861-65 was waged so that a theory could triumph - the Story-Webster theory of a consolidated nation made up of the people of the United States in an aggregate capacity. However, a triumphant theory is far from a proven fact. Another excellent work by Dr. Bledsoe, this book does a fine job of answering the question, "Was secession a constitutional right previous to the War of 1861?" and demonstrates how a false premise can never lead to a true conclusion, no matter how much effort - or blood - is spent to bring it to that end.
