In judging of the welfare of the slaves, it is necessary to distinguish the different conditions of slavery. The most important

distinction, both as regards numbers and its influence on the well­being of the slave, is that between house­servants and farm or field­hands. The house­servant is comparatively well off. He is frequently born and bred in the family he belongs to. The position of the field­hands is very different; of those, especially, who labour on large plantations. Here there are none of those humanizing influences at work which temper the rigour of the system, nor is there the same check of public opinion to control abuse. The 'force' is worked as a great human mechanism; as a drove of human cattle. --James Stirling, 1857 What is the MAIN idea of the author's description of life on a southern plantation?

Sort each proposal by placing it beneath the states that supported it.
dangina [55]

Virginia Plan--3. Called for bicameral legislature; 5. Called for proportional representation; 6. Was supported by larger states

New Jersey Plan--1. Called for equal representation; 2. Was supported by smaller states; 4. Called for a unicameral legislature

The Virginia and New Jersey Plans were proposals of how to handle the issue of a federal legislature and how representation would be determined for the legislature. The Virginia Plan called for two houses: an upper and lower and representation based on population. This plan would best serve the states with larger populations because they would have more say in the government. However, this plan would shut out the voices of smaller states. The New Jersey Plan suggested a one house legislature with each state having equal representation. Essentially they wanted to keep the same system created under the Articles of Confederation. This would give all states a say but not all voices would be counted. Ultimately, the Connecticut Compromise or Great Compromise settled the issue by creating a bi-cameral or two house legislature with one house having equal representation and the other house having representation based on population.

Can a senate be described as a continuous body?
slava [35]
Yes,because the Senate is called a continuous body because the reelection of members is timed so that no more than one-third of the members change in an election period. In other words, the Senate is broken up into three equal groups, and only one-third of thesenate faces reelection every two year
