Mr.. Foersoh: Again | rise only 10 make a
remark tending 70 show what kind OF means
the friends Ut tho Nebraska bill employ. On
the day before the meeting on tho Thursday OF
last week, there called on mo, ut my house, y
certain NeaseIer, formerly . gems faYmes in
Germany. Ho requested me to appear in that
meeting, and to speak in favor Of the Nebraska
bill. That Of course WAS impossible. Then
he reflected that possibly might be like him
self, and that the jingling OF the dollar might
soften my heart and consequently spread $25
upon tho table said simply to him, Now,
| will do it 10 much the lessn Cheers
When no became aware that nothing was to
( be done with me, he said, nFoersoh, have you
not yet learned thing or twoi The Nebras-
ka bill is humbug, and humbug is everything
in tho United States Make money; that's
all!n So then said TO my wife, e Charlotte,

Slavery; Slavery would agitate itself As long
NJ there arc slaves, 10 long will there be men
aspiring to Freedom. Ho showed from history
that there were great many German lab0rers
among those who made this country free and
independent. The Woodworking laborer now
builds railroads and steamships, and cultivatos
tho virgin soil Of the far West. The attempt
is now making to exclude free labor from this
soil, in order to devote it to Slavery. Not only
havo the free laborers of the North an interest
in this question, but tho free laborers Of the
South Also We ask free soil for both. Cheers
Sigismnnd Kaufmann followed, and said, We
Mood not say much about the Nebraska bill.
| think that bill is corpse. A fact not yet
mentioned tonight may be news to many of
yon-namely. that the famous bill has been or
dered in the Senate this day to third reading
by q vote of 90 against IL. The Senators not
voting were absent This fact would scrvc to
show how far corruption has gone in Washing
ton. They did not even dare to vote upon a
question Of such importance. may further

Those times have passed away, and hope they

The opponents Of our good cause say that
some of us are not yet citizens OF this country.

Mr.. X did not think that President Pierce
