49 The revolt, which was scheduled to occur on July 14, 1822, was betrayed before it could be put into effect. As rumors of the plot spread, Charleston was thrown into a panic. Leaders of the plot were rounded up.

50 Vesey and 46 other were condemned, and even four whites were implicated in the revolt. On June 23 Vesey was hanged on the gallows for plotting to overthrow slavery.

51 "Vesey's example must be regarded as one of the most courageous ever to threaten the racist foundations of America.

52 Sectionalism required negotiation about whether new states would be admitted as free or slave. Congress was reluctant to admit new states to the Union because these states might disrupt the balance of power between free states and slave states.
