Excerpt from The Eastern Question, Historically Considered: With Notes on the Resources of Russia and Turkey, and an Abstract of Their Treaties With the United States

Sia was ruled as Bulgaria is now 5 then she obtained autonomy Similar to that of Servia and Roumania at the present day 3 and ultimately she gained complete independence. Thus the Rus sians long formed the vanguard in the cause of Slavonic emancipation. They were the first of the Slavonic people to fall under the Tartar yoke, and the first to emancipate themselves. This they have not forgotten, and we cannot wonder that théyshould now sympathize with those cog nate races which are striving to follow their example The epigrammatic saying, that the Sympathy of the Russian people with the Ser vians and Bulgarians' is mere 'philological senti ment,' cannot be accepted by any one who knows the history of Eastern Europe.
