Description

The Slavery Question is a Book of Social Science. This book says That we are now threatened witli great and alarming evils, no one who will take a calm and unprejudiced survey of the condition of the country can for a moment doubt. In tlie formation of this Government there existed a spirit of harmony and concession from the citizens of each State in this Union towards the citizens of every other State; and this spirit was so plainly exhibited in the convention wliich framed the Constitution of the United States — that it was so adjusted, so adapted to the wants of all the States entering into the Confederacy — that it received the almost unanimous support of the Convention. Harmony and concord and good feeling reigned throughout the whole Confederacy. The citizen of South Carolina rejoiced in the prosperity and commended the virtues of the citizen of assachusetts; and the citizen of Massachusetts responded to the feeling of the citizen of South Carolina.
