So long as the American Anti-slavery Society is permitted to exist, and to carry on its operations under its present form, it is not the reason of their cause that prevails, but the power of their machinery in its action on the public mind. . . . There is no chance for a candid hearing before the public, and for the due influence of all the considerations which appertain to this momentous and complicated question, because the constitutional balance of power, designed for such [debates], has been prostrated by an usurpation, and every thing is made to give way to isolated and abstract opinions, and to the dictations of political quackery. Fanaticism rules, and not reason; and the natural and inevitable consequence will be . . . [that] the Union will be compelled to yield and break down. The people of the South will be annoyed and vexed, till they can be annoyed and vexed no longer. Then will be the beginning of the end.

Calvin Colton argues the South would not stand Abolitionist movement's existence for much time (D) and it would come a moment when their defense of slavery would threaten the United States.

According to Colton the question of slavery was of such importance it blocked people from using reason in public debates over it. That way the impact of Abolitionist movement on American culture would be (irrationally) unbearable for Southern states, who would eventually threaten the United States because of it.
