185433648np 1854. Broadside 12" x 17". Some old folds several fox spots couple of short closed margin tears no loss. Good. Signed in type at the end by about 140 loyal Aroostook Democrats.<br/><br/> The Kansas-Nebraska Act opened the Mexican Cession to Slavery and thus repealed the 1820 Missouri Compromise. Deep divisions in the Democratic Party resulted. Many Northern Democrats resisted the call of their dominant Southern brethren to populate the newly acquired Territories with slaves. Maine's Hannibal Hamlin for example abandoned the Democrats over the Slavery issue and became a Republican and Lincoln's running mate in 1860. <br/> This broadside excoriates such apostates who have joined forces with anti-slavery men "to batten and prey upon the very life of the Democratic Party" and who are "pledged to opposition to the regular democracy." Hyperbolically the broadside accuses them of opposing the Party's "very EXISTENCE plotting her ENTIRE OVERTHROW and DESTRUCTION."<br/>Not located on OCLC as of March 2017. unknown books

NOTES: Cambridge book review 1931: "Maine's Ancient Law on its first publication in 1861 was immediately recognized as an epoch-making work on historical jurisprudence". In a later edition 1931 "Although later researches and discussion have shown some of the author's conclusions cannot be accepted as accurate it is remarkable to what a small extent the work has affected by subsequent investigation. The useful Introduction supplied by Professor Allen points out very adequately to the student those parts of the work which should be received with caution. The work will always maintain its position as a classic in Jurisprudence and the inclusion of it in the 'World's Classics' series in so dainty a form". 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall. 1st Edition.

1836WRCAM52765N.p. likely Augusta 1836. 62pp. Folded sheets stitched. Minor foxing and toning. Very good. Untrimmed. A rare Maine slip-bill document resolving that the citizens from Maine and other states should not interfere with the issue of slavery in slave-holding states. The legislature writes: "Any interference therefore of a State or the inhabitants of a State with the domestic concerns of another State is dangerous as having a direct tendency to create jealousies between the States and thereby weakening the attachment to the Union which is our only security against domestic dissensions and foreign aggressions." <br> <br> This is a somewhat surprising position for the state of Maine to have taken at the time. Maine came into the Union in 1820 as a free state to balance the admission of the slave- owning state of Missouri. Also Maine opposed the admission of the Republic of Texas in 1836 the same year the present document was printed on the basis of Texas' position on slavery. It is curious that they would take two seemingly opposite positions in the same year. Still the legislature printed the resolution and authorized copies to be sent to the four southern slave-owning states mentioned in the title. unknown books
