When, in the course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the laws of nature and of nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation. We hold these truths to be self-evident : that all men are created equal ; that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights ; that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness ; that, to secure these rights, governments are instituted among men, de- riving their just powers from the consent of the governed ; and that, whenever any form of government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or abolish it, and to institute new gov- ernment, laying its foundations on such principles, and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their safety and happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that governments, long established, should not be changed for light and transient causes ; and, accordingly, all experience hath shown that mankind are more dis- posed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same object, evinces a design to reduce them under absolute despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such government, and to provide new guards for their future security. Such has been the patient sufferance of the colonies, and such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter their former systems of government. The history of the present king of Great Britain is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute tyranny over these states. To prove this, let facts be submitted to a candid world. He has refused his assent to laws the most wholesome and necessary for the public good. He has forbidden his governors to pass laws of immediate and pressing importance, unless suspended in their operations till his assent should be 214 DECLAKATION OF INDEPENDENCE. obtained; and, when so suspended, he has utterly neglected to attend to them. He has refused to pass other laws for the accommodation of largo dis- tricts of people, unless those people would relinquish the right of repre- sentation in the legislature — a right inestimable to them, and formidable to tyrants only. He has called together legislative bodies at places unusual, uncomfort- able, and distant from the repository of their public records, for the sole purpose of fatiguing them into compliance with his measures. He has dissolved representative houses repeatedly, for opposing, with manly firmness, his invasions on the rights of the people. He has refused, for a long time after such dissolutions, to cause others to be elected; whereby the legislative powers, incapable of annihilation, have returned to the people at large for their exercise; the state remain- ing, in the mean time, exposed to all the dangers of invasion from with- out and convulsions within. He has endeavored to prevent the population of these states; for that purpose obstructing the laws of naturalization of foreigners, refusing to pass others to encourage their migration thither, and raising the condi- tions of new appropriations of lands. He has obstructed the administration of justice, by refusing his assent to laws for establishing judiciary powers. He has made judges dependent on his will alone, for the tenure of their ofiices, and the amount and payment of their salaries. He has erected a multitude of new offices, and sent hither swarms of officers to harass our people, and eat out their substance. He has kept among us, in time of peace, standing armies, without the consent of our legislatures. He has affected to render the military independent of, and superior to, the civil power. He has combined with others to subject us to a jurisdiction foreign to our constitution, and unacknowledged by our laws; giving his assent to their acts of pretended legislation. For quartering large bodies of armed troops among us; For protecting them, by a mock trial, from punishment for any mur- ders which they should commit on the inhabitants of these states; For cutting off our trade with all parts of the world; For imposing taxes on us without our consent; For depriving us, in many cases, of the benefit of trial by jury; DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE. 215 For transporting us beyond seas to be tried for pretended offences; For abolishing the free system of English laws in a neighboring prov- ince, establishing therein an arbitrary government, and enlarging its boundaries so as to render it at once an example and fit instrument for introducing the same absolute rule into these colonies; For taking away our charters, abolishing our most valuable laws, and altering, fundamentally, the forms of our governments; For suspending our own legislatures, and declaring themselves invested ■with power to legislate for us in all cases whatsoever. He has abdicated government here, by declaring us out of his protec- tion, and waging war against us. He has plundered our seas, ravaged our coasts, burnt our towns, and destroyed the lives of our people. He is, at this time, transporting large armies of foreign mercenaries to complete the works of death, desolation, and tyranny, already begun, with circumstances of cruelty and perfidy scarcely paralleled in the most barbarous ages, and totally unworthy the head of a civilized nation. He has constrained our fellow-citizens, taken captive on the high seas, to bear arms against their country, to become the executioners of their friends and brethren, or to fall themselves by their hands. He has excited domestic insurrections amongst us, and has endeavored to bring on the inhabitants of our frontiers the merciless Indian savages, whose known rule of warfare is an undistinguished destruction of all ages, sexes, and conditions. In every stage of these oppressions, we have petitioned for redress in the most humble terms. Our repeated petitions have been answered only by repeated injury. A prince, whose character is thus marked by every act which may define a tyrant, is unfit to be the ruler of a free people. Nor have we been wanting in attentions to our British brethren. We have warned them, from time to time, of the attempts, by their legisla- ture, to extend an unwarrantable jurisdiction over us. We have reminded them of the circumstances of our emigration and settlement here. We have appealed to their native justice and magnanimity, and we have conjured them, by the ties of our common kindred, to disavow these usurpations, which would inevitably interrupt our connections and corres- pondence. They, too, have been deaf to the voice of justice and of con- sanguinity. We must, therefore, acquiesce in the necessity which de- nounces our separation, and hold them, as we hold the rest of mankind, enemies in war, in peace, friends. 216 DECLARATION OF ESTDEPENDENCE. TVe, therefore, the Representatives of the United States of America, in General Congress assembled, appealing to the Supreme Judge of the world for the rectitude of our intentions, do, in the name and by the au- thority of the good people of these colonies, solemnly publish and declare that these United Colonies are, and of right ought to be, free and inde- pendent states; that they are absolved from all allegiance to the British crown, and that all political connection between them and the state of Great Britain is, and ought to be, totally dissolved; and that, as free and independent states, they have full power to levy war, conclude peace, contract alliances, establish commerce, and to do all other acts and things which independent states may of right do. And, for the support of this declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection of Divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other our lives, our fortunes, and our sacred honor. PROCLAMATION OF EMANCIPATION. BY PRESIDENT LINCOLN. Whkreas, Oa the '22d day of September, in the year of our Lord eighteen hundred sixty-two, a Proclauiation was issued by the President of the United States, containing, among other things, the following, to wit : That on the 1st day of January, in the year of our Lord eighteen hundred sixty-three, all persons held as slaves within any State or designated part of a State, the people whereof shall then be in rebellion against the United States, shall be then, thenceforward and forever free, and the Executive Government of the United States, including the mili- tary and naval authority thereof, will recognize and maintain the free- dom of such persons, and will do no act or acts to repress such persons or any of them in any effort they may make for their actual freedom: that the Executive will on the first day of January aforesaid, by proclama- tion, designate the States and parts of States, if any, in which the people therein respectively shall then bo in rebellion against the United States; and the fact that any Statu or the people thereof shall on that day be in good faith represented in the Congress of the United States by members — chosen thereto at elections wherein a majority of the qualified voters of such state shall have participated — shall, in the absence of strong coun- tervailing testimony, be doomed conclusive evidence that such State and the people thereof are not in rebellion against the United States; Now therefore I, Abraham Lincoln, President of the United States, by virtue of the power in me vested, as Commander-in-Chief of the Army and Navy of the United States, in time of the actual armed rebellion against the authority and government of the United States, and as a fit and necessary war measure do, on this first day of Jjuuiary in the year of our Lord one thousand eight hundred and sixty-three, and in accordance with my purpose so to do, publicly proclaimed for the full period of one hundred days from the day first above mentioned, order and designate as the States and parts of States wherein the people thereof respectively are 19 218 PROCLAMATION OF EMANCIPATION. this day in rebellion against the United States, the following, to wit : — Arkansas, Texas, Louisiana, except the parislies of St. Bernard, Plaque- mines, Jefferson, St. John, St. Charles, St. James, Ascension, Assump- tion, Terre Bonne, Lafourche, St. Alary, St. Martin and Orleans, including the city of New Orleans; Mississippi, Alabama, Florida, Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina, and Virginia, except the forty-eight counties designated as West Virginia, and also the counties of Berkeley, Aocomac, Northampton, Elizabeth City, York, Princess Ann and Norfolk, including the cities of Norfolk and Portsmouth, and which excepted parts are for the present left precisely as if this proclamation were not issued. And by virtue of the power and for the purpose aforesaid I do order and de- clare that all persons held as slaves within said designated States and parts of States, are, and henceforward shall be free, and that the Execu- tive Government of the United States, including the military and naval authorities thereof, will recognize and maintain the freedom of said per- sons, and I do hereby enjoin upon these same people so declared to bo free, to abstain from all violence, unless in necessary self-defence. And I recommend to them in all cases when allowed, to labor faithfully for reasonable wages; and I further declare and make known that such per- sons of suitable conditions will be received into the armed service of the United States, to garrison forts, positions, stations and other places, and to man vessels of all sorts in said service. And upon this act, sincerely believed to be an act of justice warranted by the Constitution, upon mili- tary necessity, I invoke the considerate judgment of mankind, and the gracious favor of Almighty God. In witness whereof, I have hereunto set my hand and caused the seal of the United States to be afiBxed. Done at the city of Washington, this first day of January, in the year of our Lord one thousand eight hundred and sixty-three, and of the Inde- pendence of the United States of America, the eighty -seventh.
