Anti-slavery bugle. [volume] (New-Lisbon, Ohio) 1845-1861, 1860-06-02

New England Edward Everett and Caleb Gushing!
(Great merrment) Somebody saysI should speak
respectfully of Cushing Oh, no 1t was whis-
porei that ought to be respectful-he might be
President of the United States. That is no rca-
son Any man is in danger Of being President
of the United States. (Laughter) But l don't
think they will try Cushing. Out at Pelham,
where the Monadnock mountain hangs over the
sanctuary, the old minister was once preaching
On faith, and said he, Ny brethren, If you had
faith you might move a mountain Then he
glanced up and saw Mcnadnock, shook his head
and added Not exactly Monadnock, but n very
large hill morriment, Now, l don't think the
Democratic horse in the race could quite carry
Cushing, though think ho might win with the
Little Giant in the saddle. But that is no bust
ness Of ours.
am glad that came here so late that it was
unnecessary should say anything in addition to
tho ighty aud grave truth, to the eloquent and
stern truth, to which we have listened this morn.

OF our own platform doing our work better, per-
haps, than we can do it ourselves 1t is q hard
fight; it is a bravo battle. Mr.. Seward knows it,
better than you and do. He does not mean that
speech he means something infinitely deeper Zap

dental chair if be shall 20 there, with that speech
in his right hand he carries this whole platform in

is that they arc such children. tina! they are euci

anything that has not man behind it," Do you
suppose, when Jefferson Davis and Mr.. Mason
listened 20 that speech of VIM, II. Seward, that
they were green enough to believe that they were
listening to the opinions Of the senate Do you
believe that they know US so little, that they read
the New York Herald and The Tribune so care
lossy rs to suppose that the silent North waited
hushed and auxious. until lis vaGrant statesman
came back from Jerusalem to tell them what tC
think and to feel, and that when he came, this
useless parade OF the dictionary was all the mes
sage they expected? Do you suppose thAt wher

will be if he does not get it do you think tha
when his lips, upon which the civilized world was
waiting soilod themselves by saying that q better
man than he, that John Brown, was Justly hung,

waters Of the Empire State stood still to hearker

No, the South paid him the compliment Of belie5.
iug that lie lied lOui laughter and applause.
They knew that the statesman of sixteen States
must have other metal than that, or he never
could have endowed himself with magnetism
enough to draw sixteen million of hearts. Now,
what Mr. Seward cannot say in the Senate, the
other end of the telegraph says here. Here Dr.
