Excerpt from Our Foreign Relations

Fourthly - The moral impossibility of Foreign Recognition, even if the pretended Power be de facto Independent, where it is com posed of Rebel Slave-mongers seeking to found a new Power with Slavery for its declared corner-stone. Pardon the truthful plainness of the terms which I employ. I am to speak not merely of Slave-holders; but of people to whom Slavery is a passion and a business - therefore Slave-mongers; now in Rebel lion for the sake of Slavery - therefore Rebel Slave-mongers.

Fifthly - The absurdity and wrong of conceding Ocean Bellig creney to a pretended Power, which, in the first place, is without a Prize Court - so that it cannot be an Ocean Belligerent in fact and which, in the second place, even if Ocean Belligerent in fact, is of such an odious character, that its Recognition is a moral impossibility.
