The correct answer is:

James Curry was warned about the risk of his employer taking him back to a slave state, so he escaped.

James Curry had escaped slavery with his two brothers on June 14, 1837, but then become separated. In Chambersburg, Pennsylvania, a white man offered him work, but a black woman warned him not to stay with the man because of the risk of being carried back to a slave state. So he escaped and was taken in by Quakers in Philadelphia, where he worked till Christmas of 1837.

Answer for the second

'Released from foreign war, we would probably be plunged into all the misery of anarchy and intestine war. Can we suppose that the people of the south, would submit to having the seat of Empire at Philadelphia, or New England; or that the people oppressed by a change of government, contrasting their misery with their former happy state, would not invite Britain to reassume the sovereignty.” — James Chalmers, Plain Truth, 1776

If the one above is the argument, you might consider that the colonists did obtain independence from England. That by itself was something that Chalmers always thought to be impossible without serious repercussions. He used to say that  in the case of achieving freedom, America would just end up being attacked and maybe even colonized by some other country. What happened, thought, was that after the revolution, other countries gained respect for America as an opponent and the country was eventually left to be.

What does the 9th amendment do? Why is that important?
atroni [7]

The Ninth Amendment protects unenumerated residual rights of the people, and, by the Tenth, powers not delegated to the United States are reserved to the states or the people. The Ninth Amendment, (1791) to the Constitution of the United States, part of the Bill of Rights, formally stating that the people retain rights absent specific enumeration. The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people. The Ninth Amendment clearly rebutted the possible presumption that enumeration of some rights precluded the recognition of others. By its terms, it provides that the enumeration of specific rights should not be “construed to deny or disparage” other rights

Why were the Founders so specific about which powers Congress would and would not have?
alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

The main concern was how to strike the balance between the powers of the federal government and those of the states. Another major concern was that of representation. How the states and their populations were going to be represented in order to prevent neglecting the interests of smaller states? The Great Compromise was reached; a two-chamber Congress with a House of Representatives with members who would be elected according to the population size in states, and the Senate with equal representation for all states.
