3) What does this statement - "the idea of slavery is inconsistent with our own conduct and
Constitution" - mean? Why is it significant?

This statement in other words is saying that slavery is unconstitutional. It is significant because it influenced the ratification of the 13th amendment; the 13th amendment is a constitutional statement proclaiming that no form of involuntary servitude shall be present in any place of the United States, with the exception of punishment for wrongdoing.
13th Amendment to the United States Constitution provides that "Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction
