the election of its candidates secure them SO i'm

more has no more determined opponents than
the Barnburners of the North They know
him, they are fully aware Of his devotion 10 the
Union-to the Constitution as IL standy--that
the Constitutional rights Of the Southern States
would have no more determined defender than
would be found in him, and they are, therefore,
more hostile to his election than to that of Gen

principles ilatters their hopes that after receiving
the votes Of the South he would return to the
position he SO stoutly maintained in the Senate
at the close Of the Goth Congress.
