Debate on Slavery and State Sovereignty in 1850 Letter
A passionate 1850 letter to the editor questions assertions on public property in the District of Columbia and Justice in the slavery debate. It challenges support for State Sovereignty and the Fugitive Slave Law, mocks Stephen A. Douglas proposals, and accuses the editor of endorsing protection of slavery by law, urging scrutiny ahead of the presidential election. The writer cites the Lemmon case and denounces plans to transfer sympathetic individuals to Turkey or Utah.
