it was restrained by the act of purchase or cession. In the territory ceded to the General Government by the Carolinas and Georgia, those States, in ceding, expressly did so on the condition that Congress should not prohibit slavery therein. Those States, which had but recently been dis- cussing the National Constitution, were presumed to be well informed as to its spirit and provisions; and the mere fact of their restraining Congress was an acknowledgment, on their part, that Congress did have... the right to exercise the power, and tliey desired to guard against it. \yhen Louisiana was pur- chased, Napoleon, in the treaty of sale, prov^ided that the rights of the inhabit- ants should be protected ; and one of those rights tlien existing was slavery. Congress, however, did interfere, and exercise a power over the Territories, by prohibiting the foreign and domestic slave trade. From the Ordinance of 1787 prohibiting slavery in the Territory northwest X)f the Ohio, down to 18i8, Congress, on eighteen diffe'.ent occasions, and during each Democratic Administration, did, wit'iout interruption or rebuke, exercise the power of governing the Territories, furnishing their officers, and retaining a negative or approval upon the acts of respective Territorial legisla- tures.
