When a statesman examines ' the condition of his country, and finds her moral influence gone, her physical strength diminished, her political power waning, he sees and must 4 confess them. " But while the people of Massachusetts, sir, have sought to elevate her to a high place on the scale of States, they have not been unmindful of their national responsibility. Never unmindful of the rights of other States, which it is their pride to respect, they have fearlessly sought the extension of civil ...and religious liberty over every portion of this continent where it can be intro- duced. Foremost among communities in remov- ing the yoke of bondage from all within their limits, they have ever endeavored to make Sla- very a sectional— not a national— stigma, by op- posing its introduction into new Territories and j States.
