Northerners, on the other hand, declared that slavery-the peculiar institution the south felt to be essential to its economy- was wholly responsible for the regions relative backwardness.As far back as 1830s, sectional lines had been steadily hardening on the slavery question. In the north, abolitionist feeling grew more and more powerful, encouraged by a free-soil movement vigorously opposed to the extension of slavery into the regions not yet organized as states.
