Mississippi as a bond of union and the Indian and slave injustices
A long contemplative discourse extols the Mississippi River as a unifying artery for fourteen states, then shifts to a stark critique of how northern and border states condone Indian removal and slave bondage. It contrasts regional hypocrisies with the cruelty faced by Native peoples and enslaved Africans, citing parallel oppressions across Kentucky, Missouri, and Wisconsin and ending with a satirical note on a Philadelphia incident involving a fake hanging.
