Excerpt from Speech of Hon. J. Collamer, of Vermont, on Slavery in the Territories: Delivered in the Senate of the United States, March 8, 1860 There may be other aspects of the question; but really when we disembarrass it, strip it of its collaterals and contingencies, and present it in its practical light, there is all there is of it. Is it then one of those subjects that call so loudly on all parts of the country, and especially on the South, for expressions of execration of us? It seems to me not. There is not only nothing new in it, but there is nothing of the. Least apparent injustice in that which has been once fully agreed to, and I think never should have been disagreed to.
