Conscience and the Constitution is a book written by Moses Stuart that provides a detailed analysis of the issue of slavery in the United States. The book is centered around the recent speech of Hon. Daniel Webster in the Senate of the United States on slavery. Stuart argues that Webster's speech was inconsistent with his previous statements on the issue and that his position was not aligned with the principles of the Constitution. The book explores the moral and ethical implications of slavery and its impact on the nation's founding principles. Stuart asserts that slavery is a violation of natural law and that it is incompatible with the principles of liberty and equality that the United States was founded upon. The book also examines the role of conscience in the debate over slavery.

He asserts that individuals must be guided by their conscience in order to uphold the principles of the Constitution and to ensure that the nation remains true to its founding ideals. Overall, Conscience and the Constitution is a thought-provoking and insightful examination of one of the most contentious issues in American history.
