The Life of Harriet Beecher Stowe

It is so far from being irrelevant for England to notice slavery that I already see indications that this subject, on both sides, is yet to be presented there, and the battle fought on English ground. I see that my friend the South Carolinian gentleman has sent to Fraser’s Magazine an article, before published in this country, on Uncle Tom’s Cabin. The article in the London Times was eagerly reprinted in this country, was issued as a tract and sold by the hundred, headed, What they think of ‘Uncle Tom’ in England. If I mistake not, a strong effort will be made to pervert the public mind of England, and to do away the impression which the book has left.
