He thus replied to Mr. Henry : — " Tliat honorable gentleman, and some others, have in- Edmund sisted that the abolition of slavery will result from it, and ^'"^'^^'^P^- at the same time have complained that it encourages its continuation. The inconsistency proves, in some degree the futihty of their arguments.
