Excerpt from Journal of the First Congress of the American Colonies, in Opposition to the Tyrannical Acts of the British Parliament, 1845The more this subject is investigated, the more obvious will become the fact, that the American Revolution was essentially a wider diffused, a more general impulse, enlisting not only a greater number of distinct communities, independent of each other, than had hardly ever been so associated before, but that the proportion of individual, personal participa tion, a participation in which individualjadgment was called into requisi tion, and individual responsibility incurred, had seldom been equalled. It was no momentary impulse - no burst of passion. A cool, deliberate pro cess, year after year in progress, interrupted at every stage by respectful, unanswerable, and therefore unanswered, remonstrances. When every expedient, Short of resistance, had been tried, over and over, resistance itself was tried, without an attempt to assert independence. When the last drop was drained from the cup of suffering, short of humiliation, the whole American people were ready, (tories excepted,) with Declarations of Independence,'' rather than take one drop from the cup of submission. Americans had not to learn to be freemen.Not only have the different Colonies each its claim to distinction, in as serting the rights of freemen on that occasion, in language and in mode, which commands the admiration of all impartial historians, but every County, Town and Hundred of every colony had champions pressing to the front rank in a cause which all regarded as involving their Own and their country''s freedom. A purer or fuller current ofwell-asserted rights OF man never ?owed from press and forum than that struggle Witnessed.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
