by the South snd BOW, headed by Buchanan, has
the u,ra doctrines OF Calhoun as their platform
This as sufficient proof Of the aggressive policy of
Slavery and of the willingness Of the Democratic party
TO prostitute sef to the desires Of the South Hts

The men that used to grace the Wing party South
