No Discussion Allowed in Slavery Debate and Pennsylvania Party Split

During the Senate fight over Jeff Davis Slave Code provisos Harlan of Iowa proposed that free discussion of slavery must not be interfered with by law. The measure failed, with 36 Democrats voting no. The piece notes Democratic support eroding as pro slavery ordinances pass, and reports on a Pennsylvania Democratic split between Breckinridge and Douglas factions, with two national committees formed after the dissolution of the old executive body.

Lincoln and Douglas in the Kansas and Union dispute

The article argues what a Lincoln presidency would mean for the Union, contrasts Republican unity with Democratic factionalism, critiques Douglas on intervention, and previews New York Democratic divides and Breckinridge versus Douglas dynamics ahead of the November vote. It frames Kansas events and national rhetoric as proof of party contrasts.

Abolitionism slur in Democratic campaign rhetoric across Ohio

The piece criticizes the Ohio Democratic press for repeatedly labeling opponents as Abolitionists, tracing the pattern from Whigs to Free Soil and Republicans to Breckinridge supporters. It cites Cincinnati Enquirer and Cincinnati Enquirer’s alleged shift, notes Breckinridge and Douglas factions in New Hampshire, and mocks pundits predicting Douglas’s election while highlighting intra-party strife and regional loyalties.
