Nevertheless, it is in the face of this implication, that you make your array of charges. Is it true, however, that the North has nothing mare to do with sla- very in the states, than with slavery in a foreign country ? Does it not concern the North, that, whilst it takes many thousands of her voters to be entitled to a representative in Congress, there are districts at the South, where, by means of slavery, a few hundred voters enjoy this benefit. Again, since the North regards herself as resp...onsible in com- mon with the South, for the continuance of slavery in the District of Columbia and in the Territories, and for the continuance of the inter- state traffic in human beings ; and since she believes slavery in the slave states to be the occasion of these crimes, and that they will all of necessity immediately cease when slavery ceases — is it not right, that she should feel that she has a "just concern with slavery ?" Again, is it nothing to the people of the North, that they may be called on, in obedience to a requirement of the federal constitution, to shoul- der their muskets to quell " domestic violence ?" But, who does not know, that this requirement owes its existence solely to the apprehen- 27 hension of servile insurrections ?
