We perceive By the re ports Of the proceedings Of
The Massachusetts, House Of Representatives that
an ipauisitiye yourg member from Boston, BY the
Lame Of Tucker. ANXIOUS to Brighten himseIf-of
Which evidently be stands greatly in need-bssiened
az the earliest opportunity to Offer resolution to
;rcu,re Of the GovernOr whether there was lot
vacancy in the Office Of Sen.tor OF the United
States from Massachusetts, in addition TO that to
occur On The 4th OF March next and which has
since been fled-po doubt, 10 the said Bib aud
fuckers Infinite disgust as well as astonishment-
h. the r, election Of Senator Wll'On. II Is evident
from this inquiry that the proposer Of II Is or vas
labor ng under the Misrepresentation that the fclo
sious assault made some t@o years sgo up,o
Senator Sumner was successful, and that the
assassination tten plotted aud attempted vas
scru,lly committed. II is little strange, to be
surt-sbowilg that accidents will occur even in
20 well.rfe ulated community as Boston
that sy per,on chosen to represent that city
IN the State Legislature should be in stte Of ignO
rance. misspprehensGn or doubt IS To one of the
most remarkable occurrences, ~ 1t certainly was
tie mos, dlsgraceful occurrence, Ia all our history.
We coy rbe most difgraceful because the Freichery
Of Arnold and the treason OF Burr were simply
their il dlydual acts; whereas the m1cderous as
sault Of Preston s. Brooks upon Senslor sumner,
if it was not deliberately plotted as msny believe
by tie South Carolina del,ge on in Congress, wa
ely and uhequiyocally inder,ed BY tia STATE
of South CarolIa, and By the Southern cbvAlry
generally; WIS cOun'eBsncei by the dominant ma
ioi!y of the Senate Of the United States, not one
of whose members made the slightest effort to in.
ttrru it, or expressed the slightest reprobaton Of
il; and was more OF less openly rrjciced oTer, not
merely by all the rufians and blsckguards, but by
al tie sham Democrats of the Union.
The Ma,.achu,etis House of Representatives, do
not seem to have had much consideration for the
anxious iguoIance Of their juvenile and inquiriog
member. The pext day, without one word said
OF cou,s sc Bib-and. Tucker was too mo5esi to open
bis mou.b-they threw bis resolution out. Inst
nigh. perhaps well become the gravity aud state!
pess cf a esi,latige body assembled in the Athens
Of America IT was hardly TO be expected that so
grave a body sbould cOndesccnd to the Bib-snd-
Tucker level. But, having a great tenderness for
those who struggle after knowledge uader Difficult
ties, we shall OF consider it beneath our dignity to
hold out helping hand TO the snubbed and
dubious Tucker 10 order to make the mstter
perfectly comprehensive even to infant minds,
We b. leave 10 call TO the recollection of our in.
serious young pupil Goldsnith'S El,gy on The Deaf!
IF a Mod Dig. As that poem is found in msDy
school books perhaps It is not beyond the range Of
Mr. fuckers reading. /! is rel,ted therein hoE a
dog, for certain by-ends Of his own, and, prob
ably, other peoples, ran mad and bit MAN. All
the Bib. aut fuckers of the ncigbborhocd at once
declared that the nan would die. Marx, however,
the conclusion:
