Whose Fault Was It ?

. CIIAl'THH I.
It was th seventh of November -
ber , 1835 , when the writer of this
artic1e first saw the light of day.
My first recollection of political
doings was in 1840 , when I was
five years of age. It was the
Harrison and 'l'yler campaign.
One 0 ( ' OU1- neighbors had a
threshing bee in which the men I
were using the oM skull cracking
flail. We kids , who had accompanied -
panied our parents , in looking
around for fun procured a pole.
on which we tied a white rag ,
.n'd hoisting it , we slarted a war
dance around it shouting hur-rah
hu"u , for Tipicanoo , and Tyler
too.
too.Our enjoyment was short lived
however , for the threshers made
a raid on the pole and our impromptu -
promptu flag was ingloriously
trailed in the dust.
In 1842 several events transpired -
pired that made a lasting impression -
pression 'on my mind. A rebel-I
lion brole out in Rhode Island , i
.
but I little knew at that. age
what rebellion meant , still it
made such an impression on my
mind that I ever aftcr hated the
word.
'l'ltcre arose trouble over the
dividing line between t1he British
possessions and the Umted States
which caused c nsiderable talk
of war. 'l'he democrats took up
the war..cry of "fifty-four , forty or
figltt. "
r learned latcr what the figures
meant. 'l'hen came the burning
question of slavery. John C.
Calhoun canvassing the souther
states advocating the doctrine of
state sovereignty. Wm. Llold
Garrison , a bitter _ abo1ition'l t
and editor of the ibera'tor ,
preading his doctrine t1110ugh
the north by s attering broadcast -
cast bis papers which were
greedily perused by , friend and
loe. 'rhus was a 'gulf.opened between -
tween the Nortb and Soutb that
notbing co"ld close but the life.
blood of martyrs.
In 1844 James J { . Polk and
Dryden were elected. I do not
reco11ect anything transpiring
worthy of note outside the
slavery question which would not
down , although there were many
called the peace party who strove
with a11 their power to allay the
threatening storm , but alas , the
hand writing was on the wa11.
In the year 1820 Missouri was
admitted into the Union as a
slave state and at that time a bill
was passed ca11ed the "Missour :
Compromise , " which prohibited
any more slavery north of para ,
leU 36-30 which was tbe souti
line of Missouri.
The slavery party now beg Ute
to see that they had consented t4
an act that would eventially de
stroy the prestage they held eve :
the north. ' 1'0 h lp themselve
out of the dilemma they sa. .
their chance to extend thei
territory , and against the judg
went of some of our most compc
tent public meD , among whet :
was Daniel Webster , Henry Cla.
and a host of others , war wa
declared against Mexico , wbc
through the intrigues of th
filibuster , Sam Houston , ha
already lost 'l'exas which had be
came annexed to the Unite
States as a territory.
The Mexican war was a sh01
and decisive one and in 184
peace was declared and the Uni
ed States paid to Mexico$25OOO
000 and Mexico in return ceedc
to the United States Californi :
_ Arizona , Nevadr- , Utah , and pa
of Wyoming , Colorado , Kans ;
and New Mexico. Now was r
newed the jangle over slaver'
Mexico had declared the frecdo'
of all slaves in her domain at
some wanted the territories Ie
free as when ceeded to u
Others proposed to extend tl
Missouri Compromise from tl
- l ocky mountains to the Pacific
Both proposi lions were rejecte
The obstinany of both Nor
and South was becoming
acule that it was almost out
the question to find a compromi
acceptable to both. There hi
7 been a bill intro uced in t
house called the Wilmot provis
It proposed to exc1ude slave
or involuntary servitude frc
I any acquired territory except f
crime. This bill passed
the house , but was rejected
the senate amI like all other
propositions was discussed II
through lhe land. Its advocates
linallr forming a neparty. .
The ) ' called themselves li'ree
Soilers.
In 1848 lhere were three sets
of candidates tor the presidency.
' 1'he democrats nominated Cass
and Butler. 'l'ite Free 'Soilers
' 110minated VanBuren and Adams.
'l'helr platform declared 1 hat
.Congress had no more right to
'make a slave then to malte a
king.
The Whig party nom inated
Taylor and Li'illtn9re and they
were elected by the Democrats
loosing New York to the Ii'ree
Soil party. I was now thirteen
.years of age and began to ta1e
19reat interest in what was transpiring -
piring in. our country. California -
fornia came clamoring for admittance -
mittance as a free state into the
Unton. The State rights party ,
and in fact the whole of the
South , opposed it in everyway ,
even then threatening rebellion
or secession ,
Gold had been discovered in
great quantities and there had
been such a flood of emigration
from the North that the vote had
been overwhelmingly for freedotn.
' ' bitternes'3
'l'his had caused great
all over the States , and our balls
uf Congress rang wilh canlterous
accusa tion from bet h sides , in
which no one was benefitted or
convinced.
California was admitted as a
free state , however , and Henry
Clay came forward with a conglomeration -
glomeration of bills offered as a
sop to pas ify both parties.
1. He offered a bill that any
new states' formed from 'fexas
should 'be ' almited asslave states.
2 Thaf .the territories of New
Mcxi'co ' arid Utah sbould be de-
, ided fo'r or against slavery by
'the votes of tbose territories
when , asking admission as states.
3 Slavery shall forever be
abolished in the ( l strict of
Co1il111bia.
. tt. That a more rigid fugithc
la\5e law should be passed.
'l hese compromises and tb.e
fugitive slave law was passed in
1850. Jnstead of giving satisfaction -
faction it only widend the gulf
between the South and North.
During this ag-itation our 'Presi-
dent Zachary 'ravlor was stricken
by deatb , and Millard Fillmore
because Presi ent. He carried
out Taylor's pollcy and was considered -
sidered a good presidest by his
party.
