THE SLAVERY QUESTION IN MARYLAND
Mr. Merrick, formerly U. S. Senator, Offered in the
Maryland House of Delegates, series of resolu-
tons on the subject of slavery in the District of
Columbia. They hold that "any interference by
Congress with slavery in the District of Columbia,
would be in violation of the implied conditions of
the cession of the District by the State that the
Sovereignty and jurisdiction thereby conferred
should never beexeFcsed to the vital injury of the
State of Maryland and in the opinion of this Gen
erafAssembly, whenever Congress shah so violate
these conditions, the sovereignty the District
Of Columbia, ought legally and Of right rerert to
tie State Of Narylaad." They declare that the
State of Maryland is in feeling, position and all the
features of her constitution, and in her laws essen
TALLY, J'gkly, ant unequirOeaHy slave-holding
and southern State"
They conclude thus -" That the extreme alter
native to which the State of Maryland, in common
with her sister States of the South, with whom she
is indssoubly allied by institutions, interests, and
sympathies, would be driven, in the event of dis
irbance of the great compromises of the constitu-
ton, OF the abolition Of slavery in the District o
Columbia, is too painful for contemplation but ii
is one from which, il presented will not for an
instant shrink, but meet with the same spirit o
frmness which characterized her. when she Tough
through the common dangers Of the whole countr,
to the consummatou of this great Union"
These resolutions were laid on the table for con
sideration.
