It puzzled, perplexed, and annoyed the conven- tion of distinguished gentlemen who had met to make a Constitution for the new government, born of the struggle between despotism and liberty. There were generals and statesmen, orators and authors, philanthro- pists and lawyers; there were soldiers, with the halo of battle still upon their brows, fresh from victorious fields, where they had witnessed the valor, efficiency, and 17 humanity of Negro troops. The famous declaration of Jefferson, " tha...t all men were created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain inalienable rights; that among these are life, liberty, and the pur- suit of happiness," had become the shibboleth of all true Americans. Every memory and incident of the glorious Revolutionary struggle, every garland of vic- tory, every impulse of humanity, the dictum of reason, the groans and tears of the slaves, and the voice of con- science cried aloud for consistency and justice. But the South wanted unpaid slaves, and the North wanted free ships.
