addressed by Mr.. Abbott, Of the company
OF DR.. Cutter, who were sent back from Kun

during all of which time he has been the feastec

IT is ALSO FACT,
That we have the pleasure of presenting
another and better, and sounder and safer
record to the Southern mind.
n is a fact, That JAMES BUCHANAN did
not endorse the Missouri restriction as one of a
Committee at public meeting in Lancaster,
and that he never saw said resolutions until
they we're in print.
II is fact, That he voted for Mr.. Calhoun's
resolution declaring that any intermeddling
with the domestic institutions Of the States,
under any pretext whatever, moral, political or
religious, was subversive of the principles of
the Constitution and tended to destroy the
Union.
MS a. fact, That he believed the powers de.
legated to Congress should be exercised, not
only not to destroy and weaken the domestic
institutions of the States, but it was duty so
TO ase the poaoers as 10 strengthen and uphold
those domestic institutions.
as a fact, That he believed negro slavery
is recognized in the Constitution, and that all
attacks upon it are manifest violations of the
constitutional compact, and also violative of
the most solemn obligations, moral and re-
ligious.
q. I IL. III Ill. &c
slavery in the District of Columbia would be a
Maryland and Virginia, give Just cause of
alarm to the slaveholding States, and tend to
endanger the Union.
is a fact, That he was in favor Of the flu
gitive slave law.
II is a fact, That he approved of the pas
sage of the Kansas Nebraska bill and the re.
peal Of the Missouri restriction, and would
maintain them against any storm which might
be raised to subvert them.
IS a fact, That he recognized no higher
law than the Constitution of the United States,
and believed in the equality of the States.
II is a fact, That Mr.. Buchanan while in
Congress, voted against transmission Of in
snrrectionary documents in the mails
IL isa fact, That he voted for the admission
of Arkansas in the Union, which is slave
State.
His a .fact, That he sustained the annexa-
ton Of Texas, which also added another slave
State to the Union, and, in fact upon oil sub.
jects connected with the subject of slavery
consistently maintained national conserva.
tive position.
His a fact, That no northern man who has
been as long in public service and who has
filled almost every important position that in
any way relates to or influences our national
affairs can show half as clear record to COM
mend him to southern support as James Bu-
chananan of Pennsylvania.
