Lecture I. Introductory remarks on the subject of African slavery in the United States.
General subject enunciated
Why this discussion may be regarded as humiliating by Southern people
other stand-points, however, disclose an urgent necessity, at this time, for a thorough investigation of the whole subject
the results to which it is the object of these lectures to conduct the mind.

objection answered
Africans are not competent to that measure of self-government which entitles a man to political sovereignty

the humanity of this policy
in the opinion of Southern people they are still unprepared
the fanaticism and rashness of some, and the inexcusable wickedness of others, who oppose the South.
it having been proved that both the doctrine and the assumption of fact by Northern fanatics, in regard to the claim of the African to a republican form of government, are false, and that the presumption is in favor of the position of the South, that domestic slavery i
