Let them show also, historically, how far it was from the intention of the fraraers of the Constitution to regard slavery otherwise than as a temporary institution, a political and moral evil, and an unsuitable element of a repub- lican government ; and how little they designed to entail upon their posterity, for a succession of generations, and without any provision for relief, such a burden as slavery has proved in all its direct and indirect consequences, — in its influence upon 10 the maste...r, as well as upon the slave, — and in its tendency to obstruct the establishment of an enlightened national policy, to multiply sources of social and civil degradation, and to excite and produce never-ending and wide-spread disaffection and animosity among those who, as fellow-countrymen, ought to be, and but for this cause might be, political brethren. Let them expose the short-sighted policy which has once and again misled and insnared so many of the constituted guardians of the rights and interests of the Free States, under the pretext of a patri- otic compromise of sectional differences, — by inducing them to concur in authorizing the annexation of Slave Territory and the multiplication of Slave States, and in thus preventing, for an indefinite period, the natural extinction of the national curse.
