Answer:

A slave owner himself, President Taylor adopted some antislavery political positions. He opposed the spread of slavery to new U.S. territories.

It was done by Britain to allow the Native Americans to keep the land and stop attacking the settlers who wanted to move there. This was a tax law that said the colonists had to pay taxes on all printed paper including stamps, newspapers, pamphlets, marriage licenses, and playing cards.
