SPEECH OF
MB. in. J. WELLBORNi OF GA.
ON THE SLAVE QUESTION.
In treHousiop RcrRkatNTATivES.Feb. 15,1850.
Tbe House being iu Committee of the Whole on
tbe State of .the Union, on tbe Resolution refer
ring tbs President’s Message to the various
. Standing Committees, Mr. Wellborn said:
In rising. Mr. Chairman, to reply to the argtt-
meuta of the honorable member from Indiana.
(Mr. Fitch.) pronounced on yesterday, and the
honorable member from Ohio, ("Mr. Root,) who
has just taken bis seat, I roust beg tbe special in
dulgence of tho committee. The circumstances
in which I enter-upon the weighty topics now en
gaging our most auztout deliberations, leavo me
Uttie opportunity to ohseyve that order iu argu
ment, and tbqt accuracy, of language, must favura-
lild to a correct comprehension of what I desire to
submit to the notice of the committee. If, how
ever, Mr. Chairman, I shall succeed in discussing
the perplexing subjects before us with the respect
due to opposing opinions, nnd at the same time,
with tho freedom nnd'eandor becoming their gra
vity, I shall be moat heppyi -
The. honorable member from Indiana, (Mr.
Filch.^expressed, in the course of his argument,
ou yesterday, the (ipjnion that the passage of the
ordjnanc'eof 178?, for the goveminentof the North,

the introduction of slavery tberein,-waa. in effect,

honorable member from Indians entered into the become a law, cau it be believed Mr. Chairman,
compact of the Constition f The idea, I humbly | that it wtll be possible for the people of the south,
submit, is little less tbau extravagant. ' supposing thclb to be tolerably informed of the
this Union. That proposition requires a review of
a few of tbe historical circumstances in which that
ordinance came to be passed. It will be remem
bered by tbe_committeolhattl was euacted by the
Congress of The Confederation. Now. Mr.'Chair,
man, wheu tbe Articles of Confederation were' a-
dotped. the States which were parties to them held
no.other territory whatsoever, than that which was
embraced wilbin their respective limits. They
had uo territory, I repeat, in flie^ sense in which
we apply that term to nnappeopnated Hud*, frmn
time, to time, held in common by the United
States.- Aud if the honorable member who used
that argument, will .take the troy lily, to look
tiirongb those Articles of Confederation, ho will
find uo‘ remark, which can for a moment justify
But, Mr. Chairman, the honorable member from
Ohio argues that the power of this Government
over the new Territories is nn unlimited one, and
that therefore, no well-founded complaint can lie
against its exercise in the passage of the threaten
ed restriction, to which he avows himself unalter
ably devoted. Here. Mr. Chairman, opinions are
as discordant ns on other propositions of the gen
tleman. Who has satisfactorily showu that the
jurisdiction of Congress over the new Territories
is without limitation T It has been often signifi-
caiuly inquired whether'Congress may go the
length of establishing a monarchy or a church in
our new Territories? The prevailing inquiry,
going on acknowledged limitations, would seem,
to be ofter the exact boundary. Certainly it Cfli .
not be maintained that either the great body of
American statesmen or people, whether l ight er
wrong in not doipg so, ,iuent to the proposiiiod ^ .
that Congress may do in the Territories what it is, nhe non-extension of slaver*,
forbid, universally, to do in the Consiitution. But T - T - ■—» -itt.;.. .u. .l„
were that conceded, which is not proved, viz:
that it is impossihle to tind a technical limitation
to the power of Congr.*»s over the new Territo
ries, the question would still come back npon us in
each 'instance of the proposed' exercise of it.
whether an eye were being had to.the natare of
the title by which the po wer is held, the appropri
ate objects of that power, eud the just-rights of
all interested in it? From such pratical guide's to
the exercise of it as is to be found iajliese sources,,
it were inipossilile’to separate the power*without a
plain breach of IVith. Let ui, I pray you. Mrv
Chairman, bo not misled by forms'ot law They
do notmerely originate rights or lound equities.—
They perhaps more frequently, express them—of
ten yield to them.' They may minister to wrong,
oppression, or*partiality; but can never justify it.
From sliis, I take it, Mr. Chairman, there can *be
S 3 it oot, that within the short lapse of a single
eneratiou,perhaps, the while population residing
no escape. ....
And now, Mr, Chairman, having replied to
what I beli evd may be regarded as’the strongest
arguments on the opposite side of the question,
allow-mo to ask the indulgent attention oi the
committee to two resolutions I hold in hand.—
the idea, that territori«rl acqusilions were.uiitici-
psted hv them. When, therefore, peudiug- those It is not my. intention, Mr. Chairman, to press
articles, territorial cessions to tho States iu coin- i these resolutions to an imqjediale vote. I prefer
mqn cauie to be made.by the Stutes separately, the to hold them for the present, and ask action ^opon
Congress of the Oimfederatlbn found itself without
tlie shadow of rightful authority -over them.- A
new state of things, not contemplated by the Ar
ticles of Coiil'edyrut.iou, hud transpired. It.was,
Mr. Chuiripau, in these precise.cifcumstftnces that
the Congress of the Confederation, with very pa

possess a moderate Aare of sensibility to wrong
and insult, to maintain that attachment to the Unioa
and that desire for its preservation which are ne
cessary alike to its prosperity, its peace, nnd ita
honor > Happily for the higher destinies of hu
man nature, she it incapable iu 'such circumstan
ces, of so gross an act ot' self-ahaudoment. I am
aware honorable members, who take the gronnd
of total exclusion, insist that it is quite impossible
that any desire cao be felt by them to degrade or
disparage tbe South, or any section of n common
.Union. Conceding that, wbat, may I respectfully
inquire, i* tbe stress of that regard which cannot
QLerfcome the obstacles, if any exist, that lie in the
‘way of such terms of compromise ns these I have
had the honor this day toannounce?
And what, Mr, Chairman, is the practical sola-
"lion, as it lies itx prpspect, of the proposition ot
the non-extension of slaver*-, to the new territories?
A* n good deal, Mr-Chairman, has been said a
ly irregular, enacted uiuLpuViu operation over the Il0Ut lb | right of self-government, with.o view to "'^“^“iuHelTtW ISethe? lira we“,Lht“of

I am aware that we are assured that tho object of
non-extensiou is oot to disturb or impair the insti
tution of slavery within the Sluve Steles. Bull
urge attention to the logical, proximate effect of
,the contemplated measures. Aud with how much
more easo may. not the North approach tbe line in
dicated of settlement than tbe South. -The North,
byilie nature of her internal condition, as- well aa
'by her numerical preponderance in the more-pop
ulous branch of .the National Legislature, is, and
must coutione secure. Her power mgst in every
event soon obtain ill the other branch. of the Con
gress. Tlie South is pressed by a(i&ulti,audlioutof.
paw.er. -The North is moving on her career of en
croachment at the suggestion of a sentiment—a
sentiment founded,- Mr. Chairman, on a specula
tive and'disputed point, in natural rights. The
South is charged with the preservation of a sub
stance—a. vast end now iudlspensable form of
wealth—a widely diffused and most influential
element iu tho constitution of her civil and domes- ,
tic institutions and relations.
-In looking Mr. Chairman, over tbe vast theatre
now jippropriated to lU4 display of Atnericau pa-'
triolisin and American politics, the eye becomes
dimmed by the stretch of territorial distances, and
tliAtnind throbs with thelaborof comprehending
