| Summary | "The Continental Monthly, Vol. 1, No. 6, June, 1862" by Various is a historical magazine issue published in the mid-19th century. This volume is dedicated to examination of significant themes of literature and national policy during a tumultuous period in American history, particularly focusing on the contentious issue of slavery and its constitutional implications. The opening of this issue features a critical analysis of the Constitution concerning its treatment of slavery, presenting arguments from both the Free States and Slave States. It explores various interpretations and intentions of the framers of the Constitution, discussing the perception of slavery as a political and moral issue versus an accepted institution at the time of the Constitution's adoption. This discourse aims to provide a historical lens through which the evolving nature of slavery and freedom in America can be understood, setting the stage for the heated debates leading up to the Civil War.
