Upon this twelfth-section subterfuge, Mr. Chairman, they went into the fight in the South. It was there represented as the national platform of the American party. At the Xorth it was repudiated, and there anti-slavery was the sole issue that the American party made the fight on. And yet, sir, every triumph at the North was hailed at the South as a great American vic- tory. Their connexion was still kept up. By thus dealing with the people in a double sense, they carried my State, elected the g...overnor by an overwhelmingmajority of the legislature, sis members of Congress, and a few members of Congress in other southern States. Sir, I told the people of my district, upon evei'y stump, that the know-nothings were deceiv- ing them ; that the party was not a national party ; and that, as it existed in the South in re- ference to the subject of slavery, it had no existence elsewhere, and that on that vital subject the party North and South had no feeling in common. Warmly did the know-nothing ora- tors repudiate this, what they conceived to be an imputation on their party.
