The book ""Speeches of Hayne and Webster in the United States Senate, on the Resolution of Mr. Foot, January, 1830"" is a historical document that contains the speeches of two prominent political figures in the United States Senate during the early 19th century. The book was written by Robert Young Hayne and published in 1853.The speeches contained in the book were given by Hayne and Daniel Webster in response to a resolution put forth by Senator Samuel Augustus Foot of Connecticut. The resolution proposed the restriction of the sale of public lands in the western United States, which was a controversial issue at the time.Hayne, a senator from South Carolina, argued in favor of the resolution and the idea of states' rights. He believed that the federal government should have limited power and that individual states should have more control over their own affairs.Webster, a senator from Massachusetts, argued against the resolution and in favor of a strong federal government. He believed that the federal government had the responsibility to maintain a unified nation and that the states should not have the power to nullify federal laws.The speeches given by Hayne and Webster are considered to be some of the most important political speeches in American history. They represent two very different viewpoints on the role of government and the balance of power between the federal government and individual states.Overall, ""Speeches of Hayne and Webster in the United States Senate, on the Resolution of Mr. Foot, January, 1830"" is a valuable historical document that provides insight into the political debates and ideologies of the early 19th century in the United States.Also, Mr. Webster's, Celebrated Speech On The Slavery Compromise Bill, March 7, 1850.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
