One, in particular, is your de-' claration that "when the Constitution was the question (of Slavery) had been settled in the North-west Ten itqry 4y the articles of cession of that Territory by the state of Virginia' This is a mistake, and a very lmtiortant one, too, as it leaves the most difficult and troubleboine fact that lay in your way wholly 3 What was done to settle the question of slavery in that territory was done by the United States, and not by the Cession of Virginia asjnueh, certainly, as what was done to set tle or attempt to seuie toe same question in Kansas and Nebraska by the Missouri Compromise; was done by the United States and not by the cession of France One was done by the United "States acting through the Federal Government under the Confederation, and the other by the United State acting through the Federal Government under the Constitution: and there was an substantial difference jin the powers of the government on this subject, at the differ- ent periods.it was that they rere- enlarged by the Uonstitution.
