"The Democratic Party is inextricably committed to the designs of the slaveholders."

“William Henry Seward, the Virginia controversy, and the anti-slavery movement, 1839-1841.”

“The government of the United States, under the conduct of the Democratic Party, has been all that time surrendering one plain and castle after another to slavery.”

“Remember always that the cause of the United States is the cause of human nature.”

“The color of the prisoner’s skin, and the form of his features, are not impressed upon the spiritual immortal mind which works beneath. In spite of human pride, he is still your brother, and mine, in form and color accepted and approved by his Father, and yours, and mine, and bears equally with us the proudest inheritance of our race — the image of our Maker. Hold him then to be a Man.”

“The history of the Democratic Party commits it to the policy of slavery. It has been the Democratic Party, and no other agency, which has carried that policy up to its present alarming culmination.”
