The CUcKos kEPoRr.--rhe Report of the
minority on Manufactures is very amusing
document, especially in the devout manner
az which 1t repeets,-and it does nothing
more,--the epinisns Of the Presidents Mes
sage. Miss Kelly's Echo sens is dull music
compared with this brilliant composition -
The second paragraph begins" With the
President we concur in the opinion" The |
third" With the President we also concur"
Again" We concur with tho President in
opinion" Again A." With the President we
think it probable" Then-"With char
actesistic point and clearness the President
give his views" A long quotation fson the
Message Again" We presume all the
friends of domestic industry aud our countrys
safety, will concur with the President
81 We are at no loss to understand the Pre.- |
dent, (.eoaaertut) nor do we hesitate to con
cur with him.. The President thinks and |
we think. -" We fully concur with the Pre- |
sident in the opinion" We therefore con-
cede the justice of the rule laid down by the !
President" Again" We cencur with the I
President in the epnien" A few lines fur |
Their" We therefore concur with the Presi- I
dent ir the opinion" This flatteru:: appro.
val spreads The admonitioss of the Pre-
sident are the voice of wisdom, but soon
falls back to the old phrases" Most sincere
ty do we accord with the President" This
potent minority wind up what they call their
report, thus We cannot better conclude
than by repeating the warnings Of the Chief
Magistrate"
TO be serious: there is in all these " con-
currences" spirit Of adulatien which ex-
cites sense of shame in a republican Ame-
rcan. The similar obsequousness aad the
gross fattery which are practieed in other .
quarters, might induce the conclusion that {
the President is supposed to have a palticu-
lar relish for them. and to prefer friends or |
advocates in the shape OF parrots or sPanieis. /
1t rs great aggravation of the case, too,
that the Message has been selected as the ,
occasion or groundwork Of this celebration |
OF the characteristic point and cleasness"-- |
"the voice Of wisdom'-the powers of die |
ton" and so forth when it is known that
no part OF that document can be regarded as
his performance. An old poet says that fat
