FREE STATES

From this it will be seen that in order to secure
majority from the slave States upon the bench the
circuits arranged that, with something less
than half of the free pOpu aon the slave States have
five circuits and five judges out OF nine The small
est of the slave State circuits contains little more
than seventh of the free population of the small
est of The free State circuits; while the largest OF
the latter contains near twice the number of free
inhabitants in the largest of the former The -four
Southwestern slave States lying contiguous TO each
other are divided into two circuits, while tn, four
Northwestern free States with nearly four times the
free population, compose but one.
Mr. President, have spoken freely of slave State
ascendency in the affairs of this Government, but
desire not to be misunderstood | take no sectional
position. The supporters of slavery are the Sec
tOnaliss, if sectonaliss there are. Freedom is
national; slavery only is local and sectional 10
not complain at all that the offices of the country
have been filled by Southern gentlemen Let them
have the Offices if they will only administer the
But do complain that it has not been admins
tered that its powers have been perverted TO the
support of an institution which those principles
condemn; and that, In consequence Of this perver-
sion we are involved in all the difficulties of the
struggle between slavery and freedom, in the midst
of which we now are.
shall now proceed still further to illustrate the
character and results of the slavery extension as
contrasted with the slavery restriction policy by a
comparison of the present condition of Ohio in re-
spect TO population area and political power, with
the seven slave States which have come into the
Union since the date of her admission. | shall sub
nit this comparison in tabular form:
The national era. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1847-1860, 1850-04-11

These are the results Ohio was admitted into the
Union in 1902. She had, in 1910, upon an area OF
not quite forty thousand square mil free popua-
tion of more than million and u hall, and three
hundred and twenty eight thousand voters. Seven
slave States have been admitted since. They had in
1870 making the proper deduction from the enume-
ration of Texas in lS47 given in the table, upon an
nearly twelve times greater than that OF OHIO,
quarter of million less inhabitants, and ninety
thousand fewer voters. And YET these States, hav-
ing in addition to their free population represent
alive population of four hundred and fiity-sx thou
sand slaves have three votes more In the House
of Representatives twelve votes more In the Sennte
and fifteen votes more in the electoral college. Such
are the fruits OF slavery exlensionless population,
larger area, and more political power.
And now, Mr.. President, let me ask what have
been the results, larger scale, OF the subVerson
of the original policy of slavery restriction and dis
couHgement, and the substitution, in disregard oil
the letter and spirit of the Constitution, OF the oppo-
site pocy2 Why, sir, instead of six slave States
for do not reckon among the slave States New
York or New Jersey, In both which emancipation
was expected in 1884, and soon after actually took
pace-instead of six slave States we have hf'een ;
instead of majority of free States we have an equal
number of slave and free; instead OF seven hundred
thousand slaves we have three millons Instead OF
properly estimate Of them nj ten millions oil dol.
lars, we hear them rated at thousand millions and
even fifteen hundred millions; instead OF slavery
being regarded a curse, d reproach blight, an
evil, wrong, sin, we are now told that II Is the
most stable foundation of our institutions, the hap
piest relation that labor can sustain 10 capital a
blessing TO both races the white and the black the
master and the slave
Sir, this is great change, and sad change. II

extinct and despotsm will be established under the
form of free institutions.
Mr.. President, do not know that any monument
has been erected over the grave of Jefferson in Viz
ginia.

The national era. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1847-1860, 1850-04-11

And the aggregate difference would swell to 9ls
Upon inspection of this table, IL will be seen that,
had the original policy OF the Government been per-
severed in, and no new slave States created out ol
Territories the difference OF area In favor OF freedom
within the original limits OF the Republic would
have been 282 1873 square miles and all territory ac
quired beyond those limits would OF course have been
free Ii will be seen also that the reversal othis policy
reduced this difference to 1905 square miles, and,
by acquisitions of foreign territory, changed the bal
ance and created difference in favor of slavery OF
304 967 square miles which will be increased, II the
claims OF Texas are allowed, 10 the enormous guam
lily of 43 ,9l6 square miles. Within these limits
slavery suffers for want of roOm-ls "caoined
crbbed confined and seeks a wider sphere
Sir, complaints from the slave States under these
circumstances, sound strangely TO me. Why, sir,
has not the policy of the Government been reversed
in favor Of their system Has not slavery been ex-
tended to undreamed-Of limits Have not the slave
States been more than doubled in numberI Has
not their area been almost trpled in oxtent2 And
vet they mpaln-cOmplain OF the agggresslons OF
the North They complain that the recapiure oiiugi-
tive slaves is rendered difficult by free St4 legislation
and free State sentiment; and that thu subject OF
slavery is discussed and adverse opinions formed In
the free States which the electors ask us 10 emOody
in national legislation; that slavery has been already
excluded from portion of the national territories
and that determination Is manifested to prevent us
further extension and 10 restore the ongnai pohcy
of slavery restriction and encouragement.
Now, sir, so far as these complaints have refer
ence TO the action Of the people, II Is imposspie 10
appease them. This is a Government OF the people,
and the voice of the people must be heard ana re-
spected in its administration. The States also are

ORIGINAL AND I'RuE.--Mr. Franklin
A., who was a gentleman Of good qunl.
-ities and infinite good humor, used with
much pleasantry to relate the following
anecdote as having occurred to himself
whenshe wasa young mnn:
A young lady in the ueighborhood had
won his affections, and he had commenced
paying his addresses. During the court.
ship he sometimes supped with the Indy s
family, when he always regaled with a
homely disl, Of mush and milk, and being
Of serious turn, was generally invited 10
say grace over the meal. The supper did
mot taste amiss, as the family Of the iail
one were in moderate circumstances, and
being himself poor he admired such domes.

yidcd he could gain his fair duIcinea -
'The course of tue love- il is said, never
did run SMOOTH and Frank chanced L
have rival much richer than himself.
One evening when ne was visiting hi,
charmer, after the board had been spreaC
with the frugal meal Of mush and milk
but before the family had taken their seat.
at the table, some cne spied Franks riya
riding up. Immc dintely a change came
over the substantial meaI. As fby mag
ic the table was cleared of its oad, and
naught remained to tell tho tale but tho
clean white cloth. In the course Of O
short time, however, the table was again
furnished, not as before, but with the suit
able appendages for making tea, and with
warm bread, such as is hastily baked, and
in common parlance called "short cake
When all was ready, as was the cu.tom,
brother A. was invited to say grace,
who with due solemnity, honds folded and
eyes closed, pronounced the following i'm.
promptu benedIction;
e... "The Lord be praised,
How Pm amazed

1t is almost unnecessary to add, that af
