| | H-Net Review: James C. Foley on The Evils of Necessity: Robert Goodloe Harper and the Moral ... |
 | | Harper argued in favor of colonization, citing the unique racial aspect of American slavery that prohibited freed slaves from occupying anything other than a degraded position in American society. |  | | Following the Jeffersonian electoral victory in 1801, Harper resigned from public office and moved to Maryland to pursue a lucrative career as an attorney in Baltimore. |  | | It is interesting to note that Harper was one of the few southern political leaders who acknowledged the right of Congress to regulate slavery, yet Harper found it "inexpedient" for Congress to do so in this case because slavery would not prosper in Missouri's inhospitable climate and distance from eastern markets. |

Hayne remarked in a speech to the Senate in 1830, the South Carolina doctrine was not an innovation but "the good old Republican doctrine of '98" (Hayne 1830, 28). |  | | The secretaries of war, state, and the navy all attended the trial. |
