Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Fair Answer to the Confederate Appeal at Richmond 5. That each state was sovereign, and had full right to secede at pleasure, and without cause. 6. That the people in the Free States were very strongly anti-slavery in opinion, and hostile to the South. What were the actual facts as to each of said claims, up to and in 1860-1861? The Facts as to Claim One Every act of Congress as to any territory of the United States passed between March 4, 1789, and March 4, 1861, except that of 1798, organizing Mississippi as a territory, was approved by a president of the United States who was bora in a slave state, was himself a slaveholder, and was popular in and approved by the South, except Presidents Van Buren, Fillmore, Pierce, and Buchanan. The acts passed during the administrations of said four Northern born presidents were approved by the South; Van Buren, Pierce, and Buchanan each received a large majority of the electoral votes of the South. The legislation in President Fillmore´s time - the Compromise of 1850 - was approved by the great majority of the representatives of the slave states in the Democratic and Whig national conventions of the year 1852. From September 9, 1850, until after July 4, 1861, any slaveholder who wished to do so, could take and hold his slaves in any part of the territory organized in 1850 as Utah and New Mexico. This embraced all of what is now Nevada, Utah, Arizona, and New Mexico, also the western half of what is now Colorado, and the southwestern part of what is now Wyoming. According to the census taken in June, 1860, there were then no slaves in New Mexico, and only 29 in Utah.
