The Edgefield Carolinian argues the State Rights party should avoid endorsing White or Van Buren and suggests Grover M. Troup as a principled nominee. It warns a Van Buren victory could push odious measures and urges unity around a candidate who upholds constitutional rights and state sovereignty.
A partisan piece decries Van Buren as the presidency candidate, claims his win would expose federal abuses and end Jacksonian delusions, and urges South support for a states’ rights platform. It predicts a shift to constitutional strictness and calls for delaying action until the Baltimore Convention nominating stage.
The Columbia Times and Milledgeville Times discuss federal corruption, criticizing reform hopes via ballots, urging strong principled candidates, and condemning party compromise. They reference editorials from the Augusta Constitutionalist and debate over state rights nominees and the danger of Hessian-like obedience.
The article argues against favoring one Force Bill supporter over another and questions the value of choosing between two evils. It notes Van Buren’s advantage over Webster, but prefers to stay aloof from a scramble that offers no honor and advocates backing Groncz M. Troup as the State Rights candidate.
