Excerpt from Origin of the Names of the States of the Union I Have the honor to lay before the Society a series of notes, the result of a limited research, upon the origin of the names of the States of the Union. I was led to suppose the subject might prove interesting from the circumstance that, some time ago, it had attracted the attention of the Society as a fit subject of investigation, but for some reason no definite inquiry has been prosecuted. I regret that in respect to the origin of the names of several States, my paper will simply present an array of conflicting authorities. I have to acknowledge my indebtedness to the acting librarian of the Society, and to Mr. Green, the accomplished librarian of the Free Public Library of Worcester, for the means to prosecute these inquiries. In considering the subject, it will be convenient to divide the States into groups, starting with the original thirteen States, as the first group, and in respect to this group, to refer to the States in the order of the coast line from North to South. The origin of the name of New Hampshire is very simple. The original territory conveyed by patent of the Plymouth Company to John Mason in 1629, was named by him after Hampshire County in England.

Excerpt from The Union of the States Americans, let us see how the first stones were gathered, and the foundation of this Union laid. It began under great tribulation; but God over ruled its origin, and has been its great support. A reformed church of poor people, or those in moderate circumstances, called Puritans, dwelt in England at the close of the reign of Queen Elizabeth, and lived in the Villages of Lincolnshire, Nottinghamshire, and Yorkshire.

Excerpt from The Return of Rebellious States to the Union The true patriot will watch with profound interest the fortunes of this intellectual and moral conflict, because the issue involves the country's safety, prosperity, and honor. If victory shall crown the efforts of those brave men who believe and trust in God, then shall all this bloody sacrifice be consecrated, and years of suffering shall exalt us among the nations; if we fail, no triumph of brute force can compensate the world for our um fathomable degradation.

Excerpt from The Union-State: A Letter to Our States-Rights Friend The production of these pages originated in a brief correspondence with a citizen of one of the North western States, who had, in a recent publication, pre sented an argument in defense of the States of the Southern Confederacy in asserting a right to secede from the Union. In our discussion, the historical question of the actual political status of the thirteen States, at the time when the Constitution was proposed for ratification by them, seemed, to each of us, the question which required to be settled at the outset, as between ourselves.

Excerpt from Formation of the Union, 1750-1829 The second volume of the Epochs of American History aims to follow out the principles laid down for "The Colonies," - the study of causes rather than of events, the development of the American nation out of scattered and inharmonious colonies. The throwing off of English control, the growth out of narrow political conditions, the struggle against foreign domination, and the extension of popular government, are all parts of the uninterrupted process of the Formation of the Union. So mighty a development can be treated only in its elements in this small volume. Much matter is thrown into graphic form in the maps; the Suggestions for Readers and Teachers, and the bibliographies at the heads of the chapters are meant to lead to more detailed accounts, both of events and of social and economic conditions. Although the book includes three serious wars, there is no military history in it. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The Union, the Constitution, and Slavery The struggle in which this nation is engaged has already reached that stage in its progress when words of counsel may be offered, when principles may be discussed, when, if any man can throw light upon the questions at issue, or say or do aught to assuage the bitterness of feeling, and become the in strument of Peace, he is bound not to keep silent. For almost three years, the fierce passions, the mighty energies, the vast resources of the entire country, North and South, have been called into full play at what terrible cost, it is too soon yet to estimate. We do not suppose that the War 1s yet at an end; but we do believe that Reason is beginning to resume her throne. Men are beginning to ask, when is this awful sac rifice of the young best life of the country to cease What are the ends, for which the War is to be protracted P What are the difficulties, in the way of securing those ends In re Sponding to these inquiries, in the present Article, we shall write with entire frankness and while we utter only our own individual convictions, we shall do it in complete independence of all political parties, and, as far as may be, of all sectional prejudices.

Excerpt from History of the Union, and of the Constitution Daniel webster declared that The quantity of liberty we possess is precisely equal to the quantity of restraint which we put upon the government. And this is the rule. If the Government is restrained from put ting its hand in certain particulars upon you, to that ex tent you are free, and no more. All liberty, therefore, consists in putting such a restraint upon your govern ment that it cannot touch your rights or your liberties.

Excerpt from The Right of the Territories to Become States of the Union The conflict of opinion regarding the nature of the American Union was settled by the Civil war. Many held before that time, that the Nation was the result of a compact entered into by free and independent States, which, while recognizing the Constitution as a common bond of union, yet left to each State as a part of an inherent sovereignty, the right either to nullify a national obligation or to withdraw without the circle of national influence and power. This conception of the Union, which is known as the states-rights doctrine, was adopted by the Southern States, and their deliberate acts of secession were the immediate cause of the Civil war and all its attending disasters. But with the defeat of the South, the dogma of states rights perished. Henceforth the Constitution is to be viewed, not as a compact between sovereign States, but as the fundamental law of the whole land - as the expression of the will of the entire N ation - and arguments relating to it must be based upon that fundamental conception. Among the first fruits of the triumph of the North was the adoption of three amendments to the Constitution, which gave a number of important powers to the central govern ment, which were hitherto deemed to rest exclusively withinthe province of the States. A series of acts was passed by Congress, which was in direct violation of principles hither to maintained, and manifested a disposition to exalt the national idea by eliminating from State life theories of action from which the dogma of state-rights could again spring into being. I refer to those acts relating to the reconstruction of the rebellious States and their restoration to their former practical relations with the rest of the Union, and to some acts admitting new States. The practical course pursued in the restoration of the old States throws new light upon the process of State formation and admission, which is reflected in the debates in Congress, incident to the admission of new States. It had often been maintained that the territories of the United States had the right to be admitted into the Union as States. This claim now met with rigid criticism, and even bold denial.
