Renton's Speech on Slavery and disunion at Jefferson City
Old Bullion has begun the campaign against the nullifiers. The Jefferson Enquirer prints Benton’s May 26 Jefferson City speech on slavery the Wilmot Proviso and disunion. He denounces Jacksons resolutions as leading to disunion, defends Congress power to regulate slavery in territories, rebuts Calhoun, and links Wilmot Proviso to factional aims. The piece notes Benton’s bold stance, Calhoun’s opposition, and broad public reaction.
