my friends, were treated half as badly
in Brooklyn as the Chinese are
treated in San Francisco, we'd want
to be buried three thousand miles
| from this city. If this Government is to
stand, liberty aud protection must be given
alike to the Chinese Joss-house, Catholic
cathedral, Quaker meeting house, and Pres
! hyterian church Let the Chinese come.
/ They'll make glorious Christians. When L
saw the Republican party, by plank in its
1 platform, denying to the yellow man the liber-
/ ties claimed for the black, / wondered if the
scepter was not departing" Talmage prom
