184819495np 1848. 16pp caption title as issued. Tanned several leaves trimmed closely at the fore-edge with slight loss. Good. A rare 1848 campaign pamphlet attacking Taylor and sketching the biography of Lewis Cass a man "of the highest order of talent" who has filled "almost every grade of office from the lowest to the highest and most responsible in the service of his country. From the first start in life he has been a Democrat. He received the first office he ever held from that great apostle of Democracy Thomas Jefferson in 1807." Taylor by contrast is a "spectacle" as a candidate-- lacking any political opinions and without even a political party to which he can claim loyalty. A General in the Mexican War he nevertheless allowed himself to be the candidate of the Whigs "who have sympathised with the public enemy who have traitorously given him 'aid and comfort' who have voted for the disgrace of their country in Congress by alleging that the war was unconstitutionally commenced."

185640822New York: New York Tribune 1856. Caption title as issued 16pp. Disbound and wear. Good. <br /> <br /> After the Whig Party collapsed under the weight of the Sectional Crisis keen competition emerged among Democrats Republicans and Know-Nothings Americans for the support of its erstwhile members. This pamphlet urges anti-slavery Whigs to vote for the new Republican Party which fielded its first presidential candidate this year. <br /> A close examination of Fillmore's record particularly as Zachary Taylor's vice president reveals that he was no friend of that Whig President. Political expediency has caused him to trim his anti-slavery views: he is now a reliable ally of the South. Although standard bibliographies have failed to include this pamphlet it appears in OCLC under several accession numbers. <br /> FIRST EDITION. Not in Sabin Eberstadt Decker Miles.

184820489Washington 1848. 8pp printed in double columns caption title as issued. Disbound else Very Good. <br /> <br /> A scarce 1848 campaign pamphlet attacking Whig presidential candidate Zachary Taylor who "has no political principles and is perfectly ignorant upon political matters." On the burning issue of the Wilmot Proviso-- whether slavery ought to exist in the territories acquired from Mexico-- Taylor is a hypocrite: "At the North he is represented to be in favor of the Wilmot Proviso." But "at the South his advocates contend that he is opposed.because he is a southern man and a slaveholder and therefore identified with southern interests." <br /> A Louisiana slaveholder Taylor surprised everyone after his election when he supported immediate statehood for California with its anti-slavery Constitution. <br /> Wise & Cronin 44 Taylor.
