And the fact that it would be impossible to administer such a Government shows that the Constitution of the United States never contemplated such a Government. Sup- pose a man goes from South Carolina to a Ter- ritory, and carries with him his slaves, he says: " I claim to hold my slaves by the same tenure that I held them in South Carolina. " A man from Massachusetts goes to a Territory, and, on his way out there, buys a slave, and carries him with him. Will any man tell me by what law he hold...s that slave ?
Mr. KE1TT. By the law of property.
Mr. GOOCH. Every Government regards as property that which the local law makes prop- erty. No gentleman tells me by what law the j Massachusetts man is to hold his slave after he gets into a Territory. There is no law in the Territory by which he can do so ; and he has gone from a State which has no law in regard to slavery, except that which prohibits it. And now I ask gentlemen on the other side, if their doctrine be that slaves are held by the laws of the State from which the master goes, how the Massachusetts man, bringing a slave there, holds him ?
