Book excerpt: Excerpt from Three Great Races of Men: Origin, Character, History and Destiny, With Special Regard From some knowledge of the unlettered working-men of the nation, I can assure him that these are the thoughts that lie deep in the heart of the great mass of their most intelligent men, which do and will form the basis of their practical action, whether they ever give them utterance in words or not. Their hearty practical contempt for the manifold shams in our age and time, both in Church and in State, grows out of innate intuition, which the reader will find herein more or less clearly expressed. No right, however, is claimed of speaking even in their behalf: they can and will speak for themselves - at least at the polls. The reasons for the necessity of Horn, to both the white and the black races, at the South, the reader will find noted; without which there can be neither hope for the Republic nor for the Continent. Much herein contained was deemed, when first uttered to private audiences, some years ago, prophetic, if not wholly visionary, in its character. I leave all those parts to stand just as first written, so that my readers will see with what fearful rapidity prophesy has already become history. All that relates to the future prospects of the black race and of the union of the States, he should consider as uttered at that date. I trust the book will interest the Eastern man, as showing him a type or specimen of the thousands of our unsophisticated men of the West; and the Southern man, as showing him a specimen of a genuine ultra Abolitionist, who has voted the extreme antislavery ticket for twenty years past, and is ready to no, dare and pay as much for the best good, and the highest possible freedom of both master and slave, as any other man in the circle of his acquaintance; and, if the slaveholder would condescend to read even this little book, he would see how grossly he has been led to misunderstand all our ends and aims by the false representations of a few imbecile and profligate political demagogues. But I am not authorized to speak for the Abolitionists, or any other class - though I distinctly claim to be one; for I regard it not as a term of reproach, but as a term of honor. I most sincerely wish to abolish ail tyranny and all wrong toward the white race and the black - toward the master and the slave; and with the hope of contributing to this great end alone was this little book written, amid many pressing and urgent labors and cares.
