W Horace Mann, in recent lecture on
Victoria's realm, said it might perhaps be
worth while to inquire at what period in his
tory, or in what paroxysm of arrogance and
self esteem, mere speck on the ocean, an
Island not half so large as some of our States,
came to be called "Great" Britain. The whole
Island might be sunk in our fresh-water lakes
without at all obstructing navigation.

GEN. Wilson'S Speech
Free Democratic convention
[ Reported fcr The Commonwealth


Gen Wilson, escorted by the Committee, en-
tered the Hall. and was received with much
applause. On being introduced TO the audience,
he said:
| want words to express the grateful emotions
Of my heart for this expression Of yonr confidence
aud kindly regard. Be assured, gentlemen, that
shall ever cherish grateful sense Of your kind
ness, until the heart upon which it is engraved
shall cease TO beat
You have assigned me position at the head Of
the column of the Free Democracy Of Old Mas
sachuseIts. | accept cheeriully and gratefully
the position you have freely and generously as
signed me. Our organization, gentlemen, was
not formed for the purpose of eevating men to
places of power. 1t was formed to carry out
practically aud effectually the great Democratic
doctrine of the freedom and equality OF men, OF
every cline and race. 1t is here today TO place
the old Commonwealth of Massachusetts where of
right she should beat the head of the Demo
cratic progressive Commonwealihs-and say
now, that whenever the interests of the cause
shall demand that some other man shall bill the
place which YOU have today assigned TO me, II
will be your duty to ask, and my duty readily
and cheerullv to retire to the of that column,
and Join my efforts in labor TO advance the cause.
You have assigned me this position, gentlemen,
because another name, one of the brightest and
prOudest names IN the list OF Massachusetts states
men and philanthropIsts, is about 10 leave our
StaIe and to take up his residence in the In
perial West. That name is no longer at our
service That name has been given the cause
of popular education and Of popular liberty in
Massachusetts. Massachusetts now gives that
name to the cause Of popular education and of
popular liberty in the great West. We must part
with MIN, but his name will be cherished and
raveTed ages after the stone which shall be erected
10 his memory shall have crumbled to kindred
dust.
Its our duty believing as we believe-accept-
ing as we accept--the sublime doctrine of the
eqality of all men, TO labor place Massachusetts
right on this question, and to make herthe bright
est star in the constellation of the Union. Accept
ing the great Democratic doctrines which we
accept, it is our duty here to strike down the
nerveess hand of that conservatism--of which
able writer has said-"that it has such pro-
found reverence for the past that it will not look
upon the new moon, out of respect for that ancient
institution, the old moon" 1t is our duty to place
our Commonwealth in the hands Of those men VINO
can comprehend the genius of our Democratic
Institutions. And, whether in public or private
life, in the future in the past, you have all the
services which it is in my power 10 render.
The speech was received with loud applause.
