Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Reflections and Suggestions on the Present State of Parties In view of the publication in pamphlet form of the Series of Articles, entitled "Reflections and Suggestions on the Present State of Parties," by an "Old Clay Whig," which have been published in the columns of the Union and American, a few words of explanation are due both the writer and the public. The subjects discussed have been considered without any regular order or design, as they were not intended to be presented in any other shape than that in which they originally appeared. The writer, being simply a private citizen, and not actively engaged in politics, was strongly disinclined to thrust his name before the public; nor does he consider that such a course would have been either necessary or proper. If what he has written be truths, no name, however humble, should detract from their influence. If his statements and conclusions are founded in error, no name, however exalted, should entitle them to respect. It may be proper, however, to state (for the reason that some persons have expressed a desire to be informed upon the subject,) that the writer is a native of Tennessee, and by birth and education, a Protestant. He was a devoted friend to Henry Clay, from his boyhood to the death of that distinguished leader of the Whig party. He has never cast his vote for but two members of the Democratic party during a period of about twenty years. His last vote as a Whig was for the Whig candidate for Governor in 1853.
