This.is not a new opinion on my part, nor the first occa sion on which it has been 'avowed., While a candidate of iny friends for the presidency, I {distinctly announced my opinion in favor of, { the power of Congress to abolish slavery. in the District Of Columbia, although I - was, for reasons which •were then, .and.lire still sat isfactory to my mind, very decidedly opposed to its exercise there. Tbei question of power is certainly as clear in respect to the tern- tories as it is in regard to; that District:— and. as to the territories my Opinion was. also made known 0 a still , more, solemn' form, by giving the executive approval required by the constitution, to the bill for the organization of i the territorial government of lowa, which pro- , Whited the introduction of slavery into that territory. : The opinion from which we dissent was giv en in the face ; of, and directly contrary to th e rvieWs expressed, in forms the most solemn-and Hexplicit, Ilyall or nearly all the non-slavehold- Statek and we are not at libeFty to suspect litho sincerity iof - these expressions. Honest rand well meaning men, as we know the masses 4 ions. : politic a lfriends in those states to be, are, incapable of trifling with so grave a sub feet- • Our ancestors signalized the commencement of this gloriouS goverment of ours, by rescu &ng from subjection to slavery, a territory which is now Covered by five great states and peopled by mope than four millions of freemen to the full enjoyment of every blessing which industry and 1 good institution's can confer. They did this when the opinions and conduct of the world in regard to the institution- of slavery were very different from what it is now. They did sobefore Great , Britain had even commenced those gigantic efforts for the sup pression of slavery, by which she has so greatly distinguished herself. After seventy-four years enjoyment of the sacred and invaluable right of self-govermient, obtained - for us by the va lor and discretion of our ancestors, we, their descendant's, aie called upon to doom, or if that too strong a word, to- expose to the inroad of slavery a territory capable of sustaining an equal number of new states to be addell to our I e6nfederacy—= at territory in a great part of Which slavery bus never existed in fact, and I from the residue of which it has been express ly abolished by the existing government We e called upon ;to do this at a period when the minds of nearly all mankind bare been pene trated by a eoni-ietion of .the evils of slavery, and are united in efforts for its suppression— at moment, to, when`the spirit of freedom' and reform is I everywhere far more prey ilent thao it haS ever been, and when our Re-1 public stands proudly as the great exemplar 'Of, the world in the science of government. Who can believe that a population like that ' Which inhabits the ;' non-slavoholding States. probably amounting to twelve millions, who by their own acts, or by the foresight of oth ters, have been exempted from the evil§ of sla- ' (very, can, at su4h a moment, be induced, by i Considerations 4 - any description, to snake a' retrograde movement of a character so extra- . I Ordinary and so; painful it Such a , movement Itvould, in my view of the matter, and I say it !with. unfeigned deference to the conflicting I trpinions of others, bring reproach upon the in- I thience of free institutions, which would de-. light the hearts; and excite the hopes of the 'advocates of arbitrary power throughout the World.
