James lluehunan, as fifteenth President of tho United Htates, oc cupied tho whlto house when the questions of sluvery and states rights were dangerously ferment ing.

As a Pennsylvania!! ho dis approved of slavery, but being a strict constitutionalist and a Dem ocrat, he held to official convic tions. He publicly denied tho right of secession and refused to treat the Houth Carolina repre sentatives us foreign delegates. His chief difficulty wus an un sympathetic Congress.
