While the People were thus submissive to their party-leaders, and these latter, to the Slaveholders, a convention assembled to nominate... a candidate for the Presidenc}". And when all things were ready, the leaders in private conclave produced their expected nominee to have him examined by the proper judges of political merits. Then a Slaveholder took a seat, and causing the aspirant for office to stand up before him read to him the National Catechism in these words : LEAVEN FOR DOUGHFACES. 143 Will you, if elected, do all in your power to make the Government an organ for Slaveholders rather than for the People? Will you, if elected, endeavor to make Slavery a national institution by gradually thrusting it into the free states, and by perpetuating a Fugitive Slave Law?
