In four days from date American patriot
ic thuuders will be heard all along the lines.
Possibly the solid South may not be brok-
en- but there will be some sharp cracks quite
near the old Bourbon foundations. There
are already hopeful signs that the patriotic
lessons of Henry Clay in favor of the
American Protective System, are again
coming into vogue with sensible Southern
men and that the fanaticism of Calhoun's
free trade sophisms are losiag their power
in their long msiatained stronghold.
