South Carolina Test Oath and Union Party clash
A lengthy critique from the Claireton Mercury assesses a National Intelligencer piece titled The South Carolina Test Oath. It argues the Union Party seeks consolidation, warns of civil conflict, and condemns calls for an oath of allegiance as a political maneuver.
Appeal on Slavery in South Carolina pamphlet discussed
The piece reviews a pamphlet titled An appeal to the People of the Northern and Eastern States on negro slavery in South Carolina. It argues the author’s motive is praiseworthy and that slavery’s past and present conditions in Carolina are justified, noting abolitionist views fail to create a free white man from a black or mixed person.
