Lincoln-Douglas Debates-1858

Republican Platform Slavery in the Territories  7. That the new dogma that the Constitution of its own force carries slavery into any or all of the territories of the United States, is a dangerous political heresy...  8. That the normal condition of all the territory of the United States is that of freedom... we deny the authority of congress, of a territorial legislature, or of any individuals, to give legal existence to slavery in any territory of the United States.

Republican Platform Slavery in the States  the right of each state, to order and control its own domestic institutions according to its own judgment exclusively, is essential to that balance of power on which the perfection and endurance of our political fabric depends, and we denounce the lawless invasion by armed force of the soil of any state or territory, no matter under what pretext, as among the gravest of crimes.

Constitutional Union Party John Bell

1860 Election

Southern Options  “What are we to do? Shall we remain quiet and wait to see [Lincoln] inaugurated, and develop his plan and policy or shall we anticipate what it will be, and act at once to take steps for our self-preservation? What shall these steps be? Shall we have a Southern Convention of the slaves states or will each state act by itself?”  B. H. Haynes (a La. Democrat) 10/13/1860

Spelling/Vocabulary Lesson  Secede—to withdraw from an organization, political entity or Union.  Secession—the act of withdrawing.  Succeed—to accomplish something desired or intended.  “Seceed” is not a word  In a sentence, “Fire Eaters hoped that southerners would succeed when they seceded from the Union.”
