Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Speech of Mr. P. P. Barbour, of Virginia: Delivered in the House of Representatives of the United States, February 10, 1820 These remarks, have been called forth by those, which were made by the member, Who preceded me; I now beg leave to call your attention, to the very question be fore us, and, I will endeavor to subject it, to the severest scrutiny, of which I am capable. The bill before us pro poses to authorize the people of Missouri, to form a con stitution and state government an amendment is offer cd to the bill, which requires of the proposed state, as a sine qua non, to its admission into the Union, that it should by a compact, irrevocable without the consent of Congress, make aprovision, the effect of which would be, to prevent the further introduction of slaves into that state, and to emancipate the children of all those now th ere and, the the question is, whether we have power to impose this condition, which the amendment proposes? The advocates of the amendment; contend that we have the power; on our part, it is contended, that we have not. The question being thus precisely stated, I will re mind gentlemen, at the threshold of the discussion, that they hold the affirmative; that, therefore, the burden of proof devolves on them I do not mention any apprehension of the weakness of my position on the contrary, such is my confidence in Its strength, that I feel I can with safety assume upon myself, the burden of proof, when it belongs to my opponents; but, I wish it to be distinctly understood, that I shall con31der this, as a gratuity on my part, and not an act of duty.

Barbour, of Virginia, on the Restriction of Slavery in Missouri How has it happened, that these doctrines have slept till this moment? Where were they at the adoption of the constitution, in which slavery is recognized, &thcpr0per ty guaranteed by an express clause And shall we, the mere creatures of that instrument, presume to question its authority To every other sanction imposed by our situation, is the solemn oaththat we, will support it. Where are the consciences of gentlemen who hold this language? But, they assure us, that they do' not mean to touch this property in the old states. 'nhat, this eternal, and, as they say, immutable principle, consecrated by this fa mous instrument, and in support of which we have ap pealed to God, is to have no obligatory force on the very parties who made it but attaches instantly you cruss the Mississippi! What kind ofethics is this, that is bound ed by latitude and longitudeu-which is inoperative on the left, but is omnipotent on the right bank ofa river? Such doctrines are well calculated to excite our solicitude; for, although the gentlemen, who now hold it, are sincere in their declarations, and mean to content themselves with a triumph in this controversy, what security have we, that others will not apply it to the south generally i' This, sir, is no longer matter of speculation; you have heard the doctrine contended for already, not at cross roads, or in the city taverns, but in the legislative hall of a state. When it shall be resorted to by faction, who can pretend to prescribe its limits! Every page of history is full of melancholy proofs of the feebleness of that security, which reposes upon the moderation of the ambitious and designing. The means are always made to yield to the end. I, therefore, heard the doctrine with unmixed regret. I fear it is the beginning of new counsels, whose disas trous effects no one can foresee.
