Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Fillmore's Political History and Position; George Law and Chauncey Shaffer's Reasons for Repudiating Fillmore and Donelson, and the Action of the Know-Nothing State Convention at Syracuse on the Resolutions Censuring Brooks's Assault on Senator Sumner, &C: Speech of Hon. E. B. Morgan, of N. Y., In U. S. House of Representatives, Aug. 4, 1856
On the 3d of January, 1843, Mr. Morgan moved a resolution instructing the Committee on Territories to bring in a bill repealing a certain act of the territorial legislature of Flo rida, preventing the immigration of free ne groes into that Territory. Mr. Black moved to lay the resolution on the table; which was carried; Mr. Fillmore again voting against the South, in the negative.
These notes, covering every year of his Congressional service after the slavery agita tion commenced, and with which all his votes harmonize, show plainly enough where Mr Fillmore stood at that time.
