Antislavery print from 1856 using an allegory of the cauldron scene from Macbeth to depict James Buchanan and the Democrats' contempt for the freesoilers following the Kansas-Nebraska Act of 1854. Depicts Buchanan, Stephen Douglas, and several animated Democrats, speaking in Shakespearian rhyme, gathered around a boiling cauldron fueled by burning antislavery literature and labeled, "Double double, Free State trouble, Till Fremont men are straw &amp; stubble." Beside Buchanan, Douglas, holding a whip and shackles, calls for the blood of freemen and revels in the woe caused by his Kansas-Nebraska bill. Many of the Democrats gathered around the kettle are depicted as pro-slavery Southerners and refer favorably to Preston Brook's caning of Charles Sumner while others call out items to be thrown into the pot, such as "fillet of a Free-soil Frog" and the "Ostend Conference plot."  5760.F.91<br>
