after the attack OF Preston Brooks
Sumner was a tall man. and with flesh
enough TO give him rather stately APP
pearance. His speech abounded in clas-
sIcal illusions, and was delivered with a
slow and distinct voice. though he read
It from manuscript. 1t was, and was
doubtless intended 10 be- an insult to the
Southern people. His theme was formu-
lated: "The Barbarsm of Slavery"
When he was done, Senator Chestnut,
OF South Carolina, arose and said that
mankind had deified and worshipped
beasts and reptiles but It had been left
for this day and for the aboli,ionists Of
Massa chusetts To defy the incarnation
of malice, mendacitS and cowhrdice.
