[np, 1852. 15pp, caption title [as issued], bound in modern wrappers, dusted, Good+. An 1852 pamphlet defending the Whigs and Scott against Democrats' charges of extravagance; and rebutting their charge of corruption in settling the Galphin case, in which the Taylor administration made payment to the heirs of a Georgia revolutionary war figure who had expended money in support of that struggle. The Democrats are the Party of extravagance and corruption: "He who shouted STOP THE THIEF most lustily, was found with the Stolen Pig under his own cloak!" Not in Sabin or, evidently, NUC.
