1850315820Washington D.C. 1850. 1 page. 12mo. Fine condition. 1 page. 12mo. Opposing the Fugitive Slave Act. Horace Man 1796-1859 writes a scathing condemnation of the Fugitive Slave Act which Congress passed on 12 September 1850 in spite of Mann's vote against it: "The intellect of the world must grow stronger and its heart must grow purer before the former can adequately comprehend or the latter appropriately feel the moral turpitude of the Bill which the House of Representatives has this day passed nominally for reclaiming slavery but really for perilling the liberties of freemen." <br/>One of the most notorious bills in U.S. history the so called Fugitive Slave Act required the cooperation of law enforcement officials and citizens of free states in returning escaped slaves to their masters. The bill was the most explosive element of the Compromise of 1850 which sought and ultimately failed to preserve the Union.<br/><br/>"By placing himself in opposition to Henry Clay's Compromise of 1850 Mann alienated many in the Whig party none more than Senator Daniel Webster whose support of the compromise floored Mann. Forced out of the Whig party by Webster's supporters Mann sought vindication under the banner of the Free Soil party in 1850. Narrowly reelected he was unable to mount an effort to repeal the odious fugitive slave law of 1851; the following year he failed to win the Massachusetts governorship as the Free Soil candidate" ANB. unknown books
