Radical Provocations on Colored Rights and British Gossip
A long-winded letter from George T. Downing attacks Radical pledges to Black citizens, arguing Republicans fail to respect colored people. It cites Senate remarks and naturalization votes, then shifts to Lady Byron’s maid Minns disputing Mrs Stowe’s criticism, and ends with a German Parliament anecdote about a deaf member aided by a note-taking colleague.
