Conscience and the Constitution is a book written by Moses Stuart that provides a critical analysis of the issue of slavery in the United States during the mid-19th century. The book is divided into two main parts, with the first part focusing on the concept of conscience and its role in shaping individual beliefs and actions in regards to slavery. Stuart argues that conscience is a fundamental aspect of human nature and that it is essential for individuals to act in accordance with their conscience, even if it means going against the laws or social norms of their society.In the second part of the book, Stuart provides a detailed critique of a speech given by the Honorable Daniel Webster in the Senate of the United States on the issue of slavery. Stuart argues that Webster's speech, which was widely praised at the time, was deeply flawed and failed to address the moral implications of slavery. Stuart uses his analysis of Webster's speech to illustrate the larger societal issues surrounding slavery and the need for individuals to act in accordance with their conscience in order to effect change.Overall, Conscience and the Constitution is a thought-provoking and insightful book that provides a unique perspective on the issue of slavery in the United States during a time of great social and political upheaval. Stuart's emphasis on the importance of conscience and individual action serves as a powerful reminder of the role that each of us can play in shaping our society and promoting positive change.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
