Debates on privilege and slavery in the House report
Mr Wick and Mr Giddings close a debate on privilege with Mr Giddings denouncing misrepresentations of his views on slavery in the states. He insists Congress has no power to interfere with slavery outside the District, defends free states, and condemns slaveholding. He describes mob violence in the District, the jail scene, and the rail from Baltimore to the South. The speech emphasizes liberty, humanity, and the President's efforts to quell the mob.
