administration party arise among the
intelligent classes of the South."
Was not the Herald among those

Northern Radical papers, in advance
of his election to the Senate, were
disposed to draw some comfort if he
were successful, as they said his
Democracy was of a rather doubtful
kind, holding by an uncertain thread.
