gressional oratory was made in a speech
delivered to-day by Mr.. McDermott Of

the State of the Union. He said:
With the approach OF Easter come the
stories of threatened massacre in Russia.
Men and boys, wone and girls. babes in
mothers arms are to be slaughtered by
savage bigots in whose brains the Russian
Gree Church seems to have left no trace

Cross men called Christians have tortured
and slaughtered men. women and children
during 500 years. In the name OF the Cross
bigots have prosecuted each other, the Jew
and the heather. During LOO years Of the
Christian era nearly every fanatic who
evolved from his mean and miserable brain
a Command from Heaven" Gheerfully and
diligently prosecuted those Of his Fellow
men who disagreed with his insanity. Around
the stake, in the torture chamber ana on the
field of attic christian soldiers" have been
transformed into Wild beasts, sparing none.
