A brilliant sally may extricate a
man from a perilous position where
all else would fail. Tom Corwin
furnishes an example. He was so
dark skinned that he was some
times mistaken for a mulatto. Once
while addressing a Whig mass meet
ing at Marietta, Ohio, he was taking
special pains not to say anything
that could offend the abolitionists, who
we've just then strong enough to
make and unmake politicians. A
sharp witted opponent in order to
put MIN in an embarrassing position,
asked, Shouldn't negroes be per-
mitted to sit at the table and
eat with white folks on steambo"ts
and at hotels?'
That seemed to be a poser. If Cor
win answered yes the pro-slaVery men
would knife" him. If he answered
no the abolitionites would defeat him.
Answering neither yea nor nay, he
turned like a flash.
