<span>The series of 4 acts (plus the Quebec Act), which are
infamously known as the Intolerable Acts, or Coercive Acts, were passed by the
British Parliament in 1774 and 1775, as the response to the Boston Tea party
event, in which the colonists threw a large shipment of tea into Boston harbor.
The acts were: the Massachusetts Government Act, the Administration of Justice
Act, the Boston Port Act, and the Quartering Act of 1774. The reason why these
acts were perceived as intolerable was because they took away Massachusetts'
self-governing and historic rights, which caused the outrage in the colonies.
The acts were one of the main triggers of the American Revolution in 1775. They
were perceived as a violation of colonists' constitutional rights, their
natural rights, and their colonial charters. The citizens of Boston saw the
acts as unnecesary and cruel punishment, and in the rest of British America,
they were seen as a threat to the liberties of the Thirteen Colonies. It is for
this reason that colonists in other colonies decided to support Massachusetts
in case of an attack, which resulted in the American Revolution, and the
independence of the United States of America.</span>

In this particular quote, Thomas Jefferson is referring to the issue of slavery as a "fire bell in the night." When saying this, Jefferson is trying to express how this will be a constant issue in the US. When Jefferson wrote this letter (1819) Missouri was applying for statehood. They were applying to be a slave state. If they entered as a slave state, it would throw off the balance of free and slave state representation in the US Congress. Essentially, Jefferson was accurately predicting how deciding whether or not slavery will exist in the new territories gained by America during the early 1800's will result in problems.
