To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Where was its protection "when Mis- souri knocked at the door of Congress for admis- sion with a republican form of government in her hands, " and was driven back upon a pretext alike dishonoring to her and to those who made it ? As a southern man, I desire the demolition of stick a wall of protection ! Again, it is said that the Missouri compromise was a compact, and that the South is bound, by every consideration of honor and good faith, to j stand by her bargain. I will not travel over the g...round so eloquently occupied by the distin- guished gentleman from Georgia, [Mr. Stephens, ] and again by the not less distinguished gentle- 1 man from Kentucky, [Mr. Breckinridge. ] I will content myself by submitting it to the candor of this committee, if it has not been established beyond all question, that it was violated by the North in less than twelve months after its passage, by the refusal upon their part _to admit Missouri, in obedience to its express stipulations, without another — an independent and different condition.
