To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
That gathering was a Southern sec- tional convention representing the South and controlled by the South. It was, indeed, called a National convention; but the National party ceased to exist when the secession took place at Charleston. Both conventions then became sectional. One represented the North ; the other the South ; one strove for a sectional domination of the South ; the other was organized to save the South from this domination with the alternative of independence. Not a particle of na...tion- ality existed in either wing.* So far as the voters were concerned, there need be no difficulty, the New York Jour- nal of Commerce held, for no regular nomination had been made and each man was free to vote for either candidate and still be a Democrat. A New Jersey newspaper, the Eahway Republican, put both Douglas and Breckinridge at the head of its column and left its readers to choose between them. In some States, however, electors of President and Vice-President were appointed before the party split oc- curred at Charleston.
