At lbo time of tho Kevolutionn, and long after, Slavery wis regarded as an evil hut temporary iu its nature aud likely til diiappor in the course of time. Yet while It continued il wa a misfortune lo tho coun try, ocialiy Bud politically. Slavery ia a aoclal relation, a domestic institution. Itex ists by local lu. Tbe Federal Government ha no coutrol over it iu the States, but the Territories are aubjeot and subordinate to the tioveriiitietit, they uot bviiijf supreme like the Stles. Tho nation ia- supremo over them, lie is opposed lo th extension of Slavery, and in his opinion the policy and pirit of the (ioveriiaueut ought to be agaiust ita extension. Tho Constitution doea nut carry Slavery into tbe Territories, nor anywhere. It ouly act upon it where it i established by local law. The Dred Scott decision only deride that Drcd Scott wa not a ciliieu, and the opinions of tbe Judges beyond this are cxira judicial and of no autboiity. The (ineatious diaoussed by thriu were political, aud not within thrir cognizance, and belong and could be dia posed of only by tbe political departments.
