New Orleans, lying within that part, was an old and comparatively large city. There were other considerable towns and settlements, and slavery was extensively and thoroughly intermingled with the people. Con- gress did not, in the Territorial Act, prohibit slavery; but they did interfere with it — take control of it — in a more marked and extensive way than they did in the case of Mississippi. The substance of the provision therein made in relation to slaves was : 264 SPEECHES OF ABRAHAM LINCOL
...N.
1st. That no slave should be imported into the Ter- ritory from foreign parts.
2d. That no slave should be carried into it who had been imported into the United States since the first day of May, 1798.
3d. That no slave should be carried into it, except by the owner, and for his own use as a settler; the pen- alty in all the cases being a fine upon the violator of the law, and freedom to the slave.
This act also was passed without ayes or nays. In the Congress which passed it there were two of the " thirty-nine." They were Abraham Baldwin and Jonathan Dayton.
