To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

3 14 Again, Congress was specially authorized by the Consti- tution, to put an end to the importation of slaves into any part of the United States, after a certain period, up to which time the importation was permitted — the permission itself, as well as the prohibition, showing the same spirit of com- promise which prevails in all the provisions of the Constitu- tion relating to Slavery. If Congress, then, could prohibit the introduction of slaves into any and every part of the Union, the proh...ibition con- trolling the soil of organized States, it is difficult to under- stand why the National Government might not forbid the introduction of slaves into territory not under the jurisdic- tion of any State, but subject wholly to its own. The matter, however, seems beyond argument. Is it not evident, that if Congress has the power, by the Constitution, "to dispose of, and make all needful rules and regulations respecting the territory or other property belonging to the United States, " there is no authority lodged elsewhere to take up any matter affecting the national territory.
