1860WRCAM45168Cleveland: Nevins' Print Plain Dealer Job Office 1860. 188pp. Dbd. Ink pen trial on titlepage. Light wear in fore-edge of titlepage and upper margin of final text leaf. Two text leaves printed on slightly folded paper resulting in obscuration of some text. Good. The official record of a crucially important moment in American politics the 1860 Democratic Conventions at which Stephen A. Douglas won the nomination and faced Republican nominee Abraham Lincoln in the general election. The first convention was held in Charleston in late April and early May and was a rancorous affair. Douglas led the field of nine total candidates at Charleston over the opposition of militant Southern Democrats so-called "Fire Eaters". Despite the fact that fifty-seven separate ballots were held Douglas could not secure the necessary two-thirds majority of delegates. The delegates therefore adjourned and reconvened in Baltimore in June where the committee voted to exclude certain delegates from Louisiana and Alabama who had been disruptive in Charleston. Douglas finally secured the nomination on the second ballot in Baltimore and went on to lose the general election to Lincoln. The present text prints all the proceedings of the Charleston and Baltimore conventions offering a detailed picture of American politics at their most fractious.

185610914Baltimore 1856. 16pp double columns disbound and lightly worn. Good. <br/><br/> "Old Line Whigs" descendants of the Henry Clay-Daniel Webster Party favoring a national government active in commercial affairs had nowhere obvious to go in 1856: their own Party had been destroyed by the Sectional Crisis; the new Republican Party was in their view a threat to the beloved Union; and the anti-Catholic bias of the emerging American Party was disgusting to many of them. <br/> This pamphlet urges them to vote for Buchanan: his Democratic Party is the only nationwide political organization remaining: disunion will result from its defeat. <br/>Sabin 59432n.

184427020Washington: J. Heart Printer 1844. 4pp folded untrimmed. Lightly worn and dusted else Very Good. <br/><br/> A pro-Polk campaign document centering on the candidates' alleged differences over the Oregon Territory. "Whilst James K. Polk is pledged to retain the whole of this great territory Henry Clay is also pledged to surrender nearly one-half of it to England." The issue in the campaign is simple: "Clay and England on the one side Polk and America on the other. Shall the stars and stripes of the Union or the red cross of St. George wave forever over the Territory of Oregon Shall a republic or a monarchy be established within its limits." Eberstadt unaccountably suggesting an 1845 publication date calls this "a flaming circular.claiming the whole of the territory and apparently everything else from the Amazon River northward to the pole." <br/>110 Eberstadt 225.
