Democratic States contended. The seventeen
Democratic States were prepared to unite upon
any true and worthy man for the Presidency.
There was on their part no disposition what
ever to force upon their brethren of the other
States a candidate unacceptable tothem. The
issue on their part was for principle and success
Involving no consideration of mere personal
advancement of a favorite candidate. The SIX
teen opposition States, on the other hand, not
only refused to unite upon the platform offered
to them by their brethren Of the Democratic
States, but struggled to force upon the party
the nomination Of Judge Douglas, against the
stern and united voice Of every certain Demo-
cratic State of the Union. l venture to assert
that such a spectacle was never before present

States were as nearly equally divided as it was
possible for them to be. On one side was is
every Democratic State, and OF. the other all
the Opposition States; and. the latter, who
were not certain OF giving single vote Tor the
candidate that inightlbe nominated, insisted
upon making both a platform and candidate
for the Democratic States to elect, There
certainly could not be- 4 more unjust distlibu-
ton Of responsibility and duty. Such was the
condition of things at Charleston. The delcga-
ton from Georgia would not consent to the
consumpation of this threatened policy of the
