The result is known. More iYau a million of graves attest the force of their convictions. and fythi ions of impoverished people bear witness to the vigor with which a people possessed of high convictions of duty will purge out t e sins which they find in the bosoms of other people. (I I desire that we should in futur avoid causes of strife which have brought us such terrible sufferings in our controversies as to the best manner of dealing with infer or colored races in this country. The same cupidity that caused the people of New England to enslave. the Indians. to exchange them in Cuba for negro slaves. to build ships to engage in the African slate trade. to force their slaves upon the South against the laws of some of the colonies. and then to fight us because we would not surrender them to appease their Mfflicted consciences is now the stimulating cause of Chinese immigration. I do not wish to have any part of this direful cause of fraternal strife. and bloodshed renewed in our country. There is scarcely a measure of general legislation. whether it relates to commerce. navigation. education. the public domain. finance. the public debt. the Army. or elections. that is not still directly influenced by the questions that have arisen solely out of the presence of the inferior races in our country.
