Tlie repeal of the Missouri compromise was its assertion, not merely that it was a power, but that it had power to rule. The war in Kansas was its struggle, to assert against a reluctant people, its right to rule. The Dred Scott decision was the sanction of its most insolent claims by the supreme judicial authority of the Nation before which bowed every dissenting voice in the South. It had made for itself a permanent home in the South, a home full of ideas and arguments for its maintenance and... advancement ; it seized upon, and taught the doctrine of State rights as one of its bulwarks. " (And John C. Calhoun was the wicked and persistent evangelist of this pernicious idea, which, when backed by the terrible unity of Southern politicians, and the conscienceless tyranny of executive courts, had well nigh taken the life of American Liberty). The Dred Scott decision cultivated submission to the local authorities, so that in case of collision the men of the South ynight j^rcfer their iStale to the nation.
