North States Silence as Slavery Split Deepens
The piece notes widespread protests and alarms at a cruel act, but laments Whig press tones and predicts no cohesive action from the North. It argues the region will remain divided and passive until slave power advances again, prompting only late awakening to danger.
What Will the North Do
A Bristol paper argues that the North must unite to oppose slavery and repeal the Fugitive Slave Law. It cites Texas joining the Union in 1845 and the 1850 Compromise as failures and warns that political parties have often abandoned anti slavery convictions. It laments diminished public moral sentiment and urges decisive action to restore liberty.
