"The action of the great political parties in making the Fugitive Slave Act a finality, or unalterable, places it on higher ground than the Constitution itself, which provides for its own amendment, and renders it worthy of a place with these important state papers. We place it in such connection that every citizen may judge for themselves whether it is, or is not in harmony with the genius of a free government."--Preface, signed "The publisher."
