to shrink at home or abroad from the frank avowai
OF mis- opinions, and he was the last man on earth
to submit to dicta.on and threats. The eentlemsn

that speech He now endorsed it; and he sbouId
live and die by Ii, and Massachusetts will stand bv

The speech of Gen. Wilson was received with
much attention and made deep impression 1t
