Our Declaration of Independence was held sacred by
all and thought to include all; but now,
to aid in making the bondage of the Negro universal and eternal,
it is assailed, sneered at, construed, hawked at, and torn, till,
if its framers could rise from their graves,
they could not at all recognize it.
It was that which gave promise that in due time
the weights should be lifted from the shoulders of all men,
and that all should have an equal chance.
This is the sentiment embodied in that Declaration of Independence.
I should like to know if,
taking this old Declaration of Independence,
which declares that all men are equal upon principle,
you begin making exceptions to it,
where will you stop?
If one man says it does not mean a Negro,
why not another say it does not mean some other man?
Repeal the Missouri Compromise
repeal all compromises repeal the Declaration of Independence
repeal all past history, you still cannot repeal human nature.
It will be the abundance of man's heart that
slavery extension is wrong; and out of the abundance of his heart,
his mouth will continue to speak.
