NEW ENGLAND WELL DEMONSTRATION George
H. Morgan in late speech in Ohio uses New England
up in the following manner:
No man is more ready than myself to do Justice to
New England, for all that New England deserves !
respcct her intelligence but dcprecate her scshness
and her anatciSm. l admire her energy, hcrngenui-
tv and her enterprise, but | cannot commend her
crotistca intolerance that sordid sel>hnuss which
would mpogeIish every oSer State, and people for
her own peculiar benefit. | am proud Of the names
Of Greene, of Warren, Of Starke-of the Adamses,
the Hancocks. the Webscrs, the Perces the Wood
burvs and the Choates; but l should hesitate
long before l commended, as models of statesman
slip or patriotism the Summers, the Wilson's, the
Garrisons and the Pipscs, who, the agents Of the
lordv manufacturers, control our country. Then,
when say New England, mean the eStortioners, the
pharisees aud the pretenders whose maign influence
like the breath Of the npas-trec, contaminates pos-
ons and corrupts all that it touches.
sSArd it is with modification that here confess that
not only we 0hoans but that ellowcitizens of all
the agricultural States, ruled, aye say ruled,
BY New England.
In late speech delivered in the senate by dstin-
guished Ohio senator-hmself native Of our State
but an offshoot from New Engand-while asking to be
allowed to place the offering of his submission upon
the footstoo Of New England lie truthfully remarked
'New England is at this moment not only repre-
sentcd BY her twelve senator's but by six eight more
who arc sons Of New England who moved to the west
and carried with them their religion their principles
and in some cases. their wives or where they did not
we provided wives for them. They came back here
rs senator's and stand here to vote New finland
ideas and New England prncipesr" Applause
Let us consider for moment this compliment paid
to New England by Ohio senator From whence
came the Hon Columbus Delano, Thaddeus Stevens,
BENJAMIN T. Wade and judge Trumbu?
They are one and ALL the natve-befn children Of
New England and they have gone to congress- not to
represent Ohio nor Pennsylvania Illinois, but in
the expressive language of senator Sherman to vote
New England ideas aud New England principles
And So completely is New England entfroned, SO
firmly IS our vassaage established, that we, Of
Ohio are taxed to make gift Of bounies to the cod
fisheries of massachusetts and Connecticut. And in
return generous New England, unselfsh New England
eondescends impose duty Of few cents per pound
on wool, while she, with d modesty only equaed by
her disinterested philanthropy is satisfied with hua-
dred per cent. for herself applause
Then, 0hians-men OF the young and mighty west
i appeal to your manhood to your selfrespect, to
your love for own homeland, to break the sialles
which the schemcrs Of New England have thrown
around US.
The Rochester Advertiser, republican paper, says
Hon. Thaddeus Stevens it is stated will remain at his
iron works, in Adams county, Pa, several weeks for
We suggest that he is rerolled His /
