Excerpt from Historical and Legal Examination: Of That Part of the Decision of the Supreme Court of the United States in the Dred Scott Case; Which Declares the Unconstitutionality of the Missouri Compromise Act, and the Self-Extension of the Constitution to Territories, Carrying Slavery Along With It
The writer of this "Examination" was breaking down under the approaches of a terrible attack, while he was still engaged in writing it, and was prostrate before it was finished, leaving some heads untouched, and the outline of others only sketched. Among these last was the head which related to the temporary government in Florida, and the transactions under it; General Jackson being Governor, and commissioned (according to the act under which be was appointed) with the powers of Captain-General and Intendant of Cuba, the Floridan having been a dependency of that Captain-Generalship. The "Examination" states (and all whose memory or home reading goes back twenty-five years, well know the fact), that the power of Captain-General and Intendant was no barren sceptre in Jackson's band; that he found occasion to use the power, and did so with the energy which belonged to his nature, and was sustained by Mr. Monroe's Administration. But the history of the transactions was not gone into, and the general assertion remained without the justification which this history would give it. That history is now supplied, and will be found in the Abridged Debates of Congress, text and notes (volume VII., now about ready for the press); and is surely of a character and of an authority to put an end to the "Opinion" which nullifies the Missouri Compromise Act, and self-extends the Constitution to territories.

Calificación del vendedor: 5 de 5 estrellas
Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book focuses on two political questions that the author holds to be of the utmost importance. The first is that of the Missouri Compromise Act and the second is whether the US Constitution can extend itself to territories and by which means. The author maintains that resolving these political questions is a job for political institutions and not a matter that the Supreme Court should concern itself with. The author believes that the broad historical context of the Supreme Court's decision to rule on these questions in the Dred Scott case has led to errors in its judgment that are detrimental to the country. These errors have resulted in an alteration of the Constitution not by the means provided for in the Constitution, but by judicial fiat. The author concludes that the only recourse to this situation is a return to reason and intelligence to restore safety to the country. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Nº de ref. del artículo: 9781330778593_0
