Had James Buchanan been a wise statesmanand a patriot, as I fear he is not; had he carried in his veins "asingle drop of democratic blood, " Kansas under the operation of theprinciple of non-intervention by Congress, and intervention by its ownpeople with the question of slavery, would now have been a Free Statewithin the American Union, the first trophy of legitimate popularsovereignty, and a great national party with Stephen A. Douglas at itshead would have been existing and triumphant, stand...ing upon firmconstitutional ground, knowing no North and no South, but regarding andprotecting equally the constitutional rights of all the States.
But it was not at once so to be. Mr. Buchanan and Southern statesmen ofultra views, aided by a few Northern politicians, were infatuated enoughto suppose that the two-edged sword of popular sovereignty that wassheathed in the Kansas bill, was to be wielded by the Federaladministration, and not by the people of Kansas, and made to cut but oneway and that way in favor of slavery.
