Republican Convention Plan At Wittsburg February Formed
The Brato Central Committee of the Republican Party writes to Cassius M. Clay proposing an informal Alabama Reprucbhen Convention at Wittsburo on February 2 to prepare a call for a national Republican convention nominating President and Vice President. The letter suggests Kentucky and other border states send representation. The response deems the idea odd yet possible, arguing slavery must be opposed nationwide and endorsing open friendly correspondence with all anti-slavery groups. The piece notes a broad coalition including Whigs and Know Nothings, and hints at a unified anti slavery stance across factions.
