nitseR'h part OF the American people -
slavery is not, and never can be, perpetual
II will be evcrthrown either peacefully and
lawfully under this Constitution, or il will
work the ssbvcrsion OF the Constitution,
together with its own overthrow, Then
the Shareholders you'd perish IN the strug-
gle. The change can eow be made with.
cut violence, and by tht agency Of the
ballot bos. The temper OF the nation is
iusi, liberal, forbesring. It will contribute
any money and sndlre any sacrifices to eE-
feet this great and important change; in
deed IL is half made already. The House
Of Representatives. is already yours, as it
always muet be when you choose to have
IL. The Senate Of the United States is
equally within your power, it ,ou only will
Psrsisisntly endeavOr, for two years, to have
il. Notw outstanding all the wrong that
has been demo, not another slave State can
nOv come into the Union. Make only one
years constant, decisive effort, and you

t0d.
This will exis's, because the evil has be.
como intoisrsble. and tho necessity Of q
remedy ia universally acknowledged. What

u, you a.y that you cannot abolish Slavery
in ths privileged States! We have no
seed. no purpos7, NJ, ,consti.n,oini power,

81 that duty on others, and tho orgnnic
lav lsaves it wisely to them. We have
power 10 avert the extension Of Slavery in
the Territories of the Union, and that is
anough. d. yo1 doubt that 10 enough. DO
you doubt that poWcrl Dd not the states
