New York Herald, “The Hon. Joshua R. Giddings vs. the Administration and the Slave Power,” June 27, 1858

This article from the Democratic, pro-South, New York Herald describes debate in Congress over Kansas’ admission as a state, particularly through criticism of the position of Senator Joshua R. Giddings. The Herald holds that Giddings’ criticism of the Buchanan administration and of ‘slave power’ is nonsense. The Herald explains that slavery will die out  as slaveholding states become outnumbered by free states. (By Brendan Boston)
