8 EXCERPT FROM MAJORITY OPINION IN SUPREME COURT CASE DRED SCOTT V. SANFORD... Can a negro, whose ancestors were imported into this country, and sold as slaves, become a member of the political community formed and brought into existence by the Constitution of the United States, and as such become entitled to all the rights, and privileges, and immunities, guaranteed by that instrument to the citizen? One of which rights is the privilege of suing in a court of the United States in the cases specified in the Constitution. We think they [people of African ancestry] are not [citizens], and that they are not included, and were not intended to be included, under the word "citizens" in the Constitution, and can therefore claim none of the rights and privileges which that instrument provides for and secures to citizens of the United States.

10 REACTION TO JOHN BROWN S RAID AT HARPERS FERRY (1859) The Harper s Ferry invasion has advanced the cause of Disunion more than any other event since the formation of the government; it has rallied to that standard men who formerly looked upon it with horror; it has revived, with tenfold strength, the desire of a Southern Confederacy. The heretofore most determined friends of the Union may now be heard saying, If under the form of a [Union] our peace is disturbed, our state invaded, its peaceful citizens cruelly murdered by those who should be our warmest friends, and the people of the North sustain the outrage, then let disunion come.

11 THE RICHMOND ENQUIRER (VIRGINIA NEWSPAPER) The Harper s Ferry invasion has advanced the cause of Disunion more than any other event since the formation of the government; it has rallied to that standard men who formerly looked upon it with horror; it has revived, with tenfold strength, the desire of a Southern Confederacy. The heretofore most determined friends of the Union may now be heard saying, If under the form of a [Union] our peace is disturbed, our state invaded, its peaceful citizens cruelly murdered by those who should be our warmest friends, and the people of the North sustain the outrage, then let disunion come.

12 REACTION TO JOHN BROWN S RAID AT HARPER S FERRY (1859) But his are the errors of a fanatic, not the crimes of a felon. It were absurd to apply to him opprobrious epithets or wholesale denunciations. The essence of crime is the pursuit of selfish gratification in disregard of others good; and that is the precise opposite of Old Brown s impulse and deed. He periled and sacrificed not merely his own life that were, perhaps, a moderate stake but the lives of his beloved sons, the earthly happiness of his family and theirs, to benefit a despised and downtrodden race to deliver from bitter bondage and degradation those whom he had never seen.
