which brought it, under the name of
the Democratic barty, into power. But
more than all, it too soon discarded
those conservative principles and prac
tices oh which our Government rests, oil
which the institutions of the South, its
stronghold, Were dependent. It play
ed "hide and seek" with Abolition on
the one hand, slavery on the other. It
had not the nerve to take sides and
bids fair to " fall between two stools."
It sought, worst of all, to sustain its
fortunes by bending the pregnant
hinges of the knee" to mere foreign ele

American party and its principles.
