"If the rotten democracy shall be beaten in 1860, it has to be done by the North, no human invention can deprive them of the South.
I do not deny that there are as good men in the South as the North; and I guess we will elect one of them if he will allow us to do so on Republican ground."
-Letter to Nathan Sargent, June 23, 1859
