| Summary | "The Continental Monthly, Vol 2, No 6, December 1862" by Various is a historical publication featuring literary and political discourse from the mid-19th century. This volume includes discussions on significant issues of the time, particularly focusing on the emancipation of enslaved people and national unity during the American Civil War. The content reflects the pressing socio-political climate, encouraging progress toward freedom and examining the moral and economic implications of slavery. The opening of this volume addresses the topic of emancipation and the proposed measures by the President to encourage states to gradually abolish slavery. It outlines various plans, including monetary compensation for slave owners and colonization for freed slaves, positing that a gradual approach would ultimately benefit both the Union and the border states economically and morally. The author draws parallels with historical events and emphasizes the moral imperative of abolishing slavery to ensure the nation's progress and integrity, setting a tone of urgency and reflection for the discussions that follow.
