To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
We may, therefore, reasonably infer that, if its value in the slaveholding Slates should not have attained the supposed point of depression when they have a population of 50 to the square mile, they will attain it in no long time afterwards. It affords some confirmation of these views, that when emanci- pation took place in New Jersey, which probably has the average fertility of the present slaveholding States, the population was something less than 40 to the square mile, and that, even then, t...he labour of slaves was thought not much to exceed the cost of their subsistence ; and that many judicious slave-owners in Maryland and eastern Virginia, where the population, exclusive of Baltimore, scarcely exceeds 35 to the square mile, believe that the labour of their slaves yields but a small net profit. Supposing, then, a density of 50 persons to the square mile to be incompatible with the longer continuance of slavery in the States now permitting it, their aggregate population would then amount to in the United States in Fifty Years.
