Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Word of Warning to Democrats: From a Life-Long Voter With the Party
For the last forty years I have been an earnest and faith ful voter in the Democratic party; adhering strictly to its usages and policy; and uniformly casting my vote for the regular nominee; and I do not remember, during the Whole time, to have ever voted even a scratched ticket. On the inauguration of the Kansas policy, however, under James Buchanan, the then head of Democracy, I forsook the party, because of what I conceived to be the dishonesty of its policy, although some of you, my friends, still adhere to it, and are seemingly unable to see anything especially wrong in its course. Immediately after the election of Mr. Lincoln, a large number of the Southern States broke out into open rebel lion, for the avowed purpose of destroying the Government.
