Excerpt from Southern Independence: An Address Delivered at a Public Meeting in the City Hall, Glasgow, by James Spence, 26th November, 1863 Opinion aroused on this great, I was going to say this vital, question, and I wish to see that active public opinion influencing the policy of the Government. But let no one imagine that this desire has any political object. Hear, hear, and some hisses.) You won't find it very easy to put me out of good humour. Gentlemen, so far from urging this move ment in any feeling of hostility to the Government, I do not even complain of the line of inaction pursued up to a certain time. I think it would have been unworthy of the dignity and character of this country had we evinced any eagerness to derive advantage from the dissensions or afflictions of another people. We have not done so. But just as I think it would have been wrong to be eager or hasty, so I hold it unwise to be obstinate and inactive when the time has come to move. And so far from hostility to the Government, there are few, if any, who more warmly admire the illustrious and venerable statesman - like whom none here will live to see another - who is now at the head of the Government, and whose name, for more than half a century, has been associated with the progress and identified with the renown of our country - (applause) About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
