Excerpt from A Citizen's Appeal in Regard to the War With Mexico: A Lecture, Delivered at Lyceum Hall, Lynn, January 16, 1848 I take as the subject of my Lecture the "War with Mexico," because it is, at present, the subject which should engage our attention. It is the question of our country, in which its prosperity is most concerned. And 1 take it, moreover, because there is a disposition very generally manifest, to leave this subject exclusively to professed politicians, when these politicians themselves take their tone from the people, and are but the echoes of public sentiment. Hence it would be to lose all moral influence, for us to be quiet and silent, leaving to them the exclusive consideration of this great question. God be thanked, that there is yet left some little appearance of freedom, and that our public affairs have not yet fallen to the absolute disposal of a few, with no opportunity for the rest to send forth remonstrance and rebuke. If, then, it be true that office-holders are not our masters, but rather the servants of public opinion; if they are but the hands to execute our work, and the mouth-pieces to express our thoughts, it belongs to each one to let his thought and work be known.
