To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The slaveholders contributing in an overwhelm- ing proportion to the cajiital strength of the Democratic party, they necessarily dictate and prescribe its policy. The inevitable caucus system enables them to do so with a show of fairness and justice. If it were possible to con- cbive for a moment that the Democratic party should disobey the behests of the slaveholders \\e should then see a withdrawal of the slave- holders, which would leave the party to perish. The portion of the party which is... found in the free States is a mere appendage, convenient to modify its sectional character, without impair- ing its sectional constitution, and is less ett'ect- i\e in regulating its movement than the nebu- lous tail of the comet is in determining the ap- pointed though ap])arently eccentric course of the fiery sphere from which it emanates. To expect the Democratic party to resist Sla- very, and favor Freedom, is as unreasonable as to look for Protestant missionaries to the Cath- olic Propaganda of Rome.
