A Republican campaign pamphlet arguing that the triumph of the 'Solid South' would impoverish the country. Southerners have "the conceit of political sagacity.

But when the numbers are crunched the South has lagged behind the North in every index of economic prosperity. The Solid South's share of the "commercial industrial financial and educational interests of the country" is disproportionately small. Its pretensions to "dictate the course of the National Government" is absurd. OCLC locates 12 under two accession numbers. unknown

185226314Boston: Beals Greene & Co. 1852. Disbound 24pp printed in double columns. Light wear Very Good. <br /> <br /> The 1852 presidential campaign pitting the Democrat Pierce against the Whig Scott featured an unseemly competition for the votes of Irish Catholic immigrants. Whigs who were at a disadvantage in this contest charged Pierce with being an anti-Catholic bigot. "The object of the Scott politicians in making the charge of intolerance at this time against General Pierce is to obtain the Catholic vote. It is an appeal to a SECT IN RELIGION to get its members to vote a certain way in POLITICS." <br /> This pamphlet rebuts the charge demonstrating that Pierce supported extending equal rights to Catholics in New Hampshire via constitutional amendment. <br /> Not in Sabin Miles Eberstadt Decker.

Light tan and wear Good. <br /> <br /> An attempt to tar General Winfield Scott the Whigs' 1852 presidential candidate with abolitionism; and to promote Franklin Pierce who by contrast is "devoted to the constitution and defended the rights guarantied by that sacred instrument." <br /> The Whigs have pandered to the extreme abolitionists the Liberty Party crew and seek to "absorb the friends and followers of James G. Birney and Wendall sic Phillips into the bosom of the whig party which is now under the leadership of Wm. H. Seward who will be the controlling spirit of the government should General Scott be elected."
