Description
Excerpt from The Constitutional and Political History of the United States, Vol. 6: 1856-1859; Buchanan's Election End of 35th Congress
The annual message of December 9, 1856, so far as it touched on the internal ad'airs of the Union, did not rise above the level of a stump speech by a professional party agitator of the most ordinary type. Such a harangue poet fectum, coming from any month, would seem very empty, even to the most short-sighted criticism; coming from the mouth of the president, it made an impression all the worse, as Pierce introduced it with a reference to his duty to scan with an impartial eye the interests of the whole.
