Excerpt from Concessions and Compromises It may be too late - madness seems to rule the hour - and, before the following pages can be presented to my fellow countrymen, some fatal and irrevocable act may be done, or word spoken, which may plunge us into revolution, and all its fearful consequences. But if reason may yet be heard - if there are still, as I really believe, many even in the cotton States who would willingly try our Government a little longer for the good it has done to all, for the honor it has gained, for the example it has set, for the memory of our ancestors who formed it so wisely and so hopefully, after a long struggle in which they shed their blood together - then I would offer, with deference to the counsels of such statesmen as still prefer National to State patriotism, the following suggestions, which I do without further preamble. Let all State laws, obstructing the action of the fugitive slaved law, be at once repealed, and suitable penalties inflicted on all who interfere with it, with or without form of State law. In case of rescue, let the county where it occurred be bound to pay the loss. This is an adaptation and a just one of the old principles of our Saxon common law in case of loss by riot.
