To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In my hum- ble judgment they have been, whether intention- ally or not, grossly misled. They have been taught that the Constitution of the country does not recognize the right of property in man, and that if slavery is permitted to go into any of the Territories it will make them accessory to thia great sin of slavery. Why, sir, we must look to the circumstances that attended our Declaration of Independence, and the formation of this Consti- ' tution. The ships of the North and of the South wer...e then engaged in the African slave trade. They were going to Africa, and there buying or kindnapping negroes, and bringing them to the United States, and selling them to the citizens of the Union as slaves. A proposition was made to abolish that trade, or to give Congress the power to abolish it; but the North, the States of Massa- chusetts, Connecticut, and New Hampshire, said that they wanted the trade extended, at least until 1808; thus giving them twenty years more to bring this species of property to the United States, sell it, and pocket the profits of the sale.
