Answer:

The correct answer to the question: What is Douglass´ punishment for trying to escape, as explained in Chapter 10 of "Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass", would be, C: He is sent back to live with Master Covey to endure further punishment.

Explanation:

In Chapter 10, of "Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass", Douglass himself starts by saying that for a year, he was engaged by contract to work away from his real master, Thomas, and with Master Edward Covey, as a punishment. During that time, Douglass not only experiences the worst parts of slavery, the constant beating and whippings and humiliation performed on him by Covey, but he also feels a return of his desire to break away from his situation as a slave and seek freedom. He tries to escape the constat abuses of Covey by begging help from his real master, Thomas, once, but is sent out again to live out the rest of the contract, no matter the consequences, or circumnstances. Duglass himself changes the last six months of his punishment by literally standing up to Covey and showing him that he will no longer allow him to push him, or mistreat him. Douglass comes out of service with Covey in 1833.

How did the Compromise of 1850 address the question of slavery in Washington, D.C.?
valkas [14]

Answer:

As a result of the Compromise of 1850, slavery continued in Washington DC, but slave trading was banned.

Explanation:

The Compromise of 1850 was a set of legislative initiatives carried out in the United States in 1850 to resolve a series of tensions arising with the colonization of California, driven by the so-called gold fever, and by annexation of territories after the US intervention in Mexico (1846-1848), which gave rise to territorial conflicts and the discussion about the legality of slavery in the new states.  

In addition to admitting California as a free state and Utah and New Mexico as slave states, the sale of slaves, though not slavery, was banned in Washington DC as part of the Compromise of 1850.
