Terms of the coalition split over Douglasites and Know-Nothings
The Cincinnati Gazette reports bitter dispute over the New York coalition between Douglasites and Know-Nothings. Brooks of the Express is accused of concealment while Ottendorfer of the Staats Zeitung confirms an unconditional Douglas vote. The piece cites Syracuse Convention records and warns the alliance harms both American and foreign born voters, calling it a cheating, fraudulent arrangement. It also reproduces Charleston Mercury commentary and lists upcoming state elections before the November presidential vote.
