SPEECH OF GOVERNOR BKoWN-cAss
IN "A QUANDARY. aa7a
We copy from the Free Trader Of Sept. l2.
l24S, the following extract from 4 late poIiti.
cal speech OF A. G. Brown:
"Although Mr., Cass has been instructed BY
the Senate Of Michigan to vote for the Wilmo:
proviso, he will not do il unless these instruuc-
tons are given II more emphatic language. He
has made up his mind 10 vote with the South,
and IL those Instructions should be ,eOeaGed. he
will make one ofthe most magnificent speeches
against the P~roviso svet heard III the halls Of
Congress, and then restgn! / know this to be
true, for ! have heard him say SO.
What glorious nows that is! Cass told our
Brown that he would "make one Of The most
magnificent speeches ever heard III the halls Of
Congress, and then ~resign!!" Mr.. Cass evil
IDENTIFY intends to go off in a blaze Of glory, o.
did "SiBgle Speech Hamilton, y Well, our
Southern Castles are 60 sore, Just now, touch
ing the Michigander that they are ready 10
swear any speech he may make is the "most
magnificent "'eyer delivered provided, he will
resign and go into " retiracy. )"
But We desire a little inf mation. If Mr..
Cass intends 70 diso6ey Instructions, unless 9TH
ers moro emphatic (!!) are given, we want to.
know why he accepted the Office Of Senator
from the Free Soil Legislature OF Michigan9
what were the facts connected with his ap-
pcinlment 2 The Legislature had already
adopted the Free Soil resolves, whereby their
Senator'S IN Cangress were instructed to vote
for the Wilmot proviso, before they elected Mi.
Cass, and he, BY accepting the Office, pledged
himself to obey those instructions, What are
those Instructions! Governor Brown tells us:
"Mr. Cass has been Instructed 20 vote for the
WtImOt prOUtsO." They seem to be very plain
and easily understood. Why will he refuse to
obey the ins.ructions9 Because they arc inde-
finite? No. Because they require him to vio-
late the Constitution! No. But because ,hey
are not sufficiently s~gmphatic!' So this great
Democrat will not obey unless his Instructions
are Phrased In emphatic lan~guage!' What
will the poor Legislature Of Michigan do?
They have passed statute against swearing,
and we don't Bee how they can lawfully make
their Instructions " more emphatic,n unless
they frs. repeal the law against profanity, and
then renew their resolves with at By the
Eternal, Lewis Cass!"-ot some such tenn
phatiC expressions that may render The com
mand obligatory upon this Big Democrat. But
Gov. Brown says Mr.. Cass will not obey UNI
less the instructions are more emphatic
which implies that he will obey such %instrue-
tons when made more emphatics Bur, then,
Gov, Brown says that, if those same %inistruc-
lions are repeated, Mr.. Cass win make that
magnificent speech and resign. So that our
Brown has placed the great M~ichigander in a
very awkward sort Of a quandary. He has
him to obey emphatic Instructions
ind vote Tor the Proviso, and also pledged him
% make that magnificent speech and resign
without voting al all! And then, again, be
las pledged MI. Cas- to vote with the South
- he has made up his mind to that. Pray,
low does our Brown expect Mr.. Cass 10 svcle
with the South and yet make that speech and
esiggn without voting at all? Does Governor
hope 10 CANNON the people with such
rash as lhatg ~ :

Want Of time and the fact that almost every /

living an extended notice Of their speeches /
We have lisssHsd 10 many discussions between
