LAIBD, OF JUSIA7A. A15A1K
CO., 27S32AS2A.
We publish this week a part of the
Oration of Mr. Laird's. Lack of space
will not permit u publishing only a
part. We regret this very much, as
we think all of our readers who did
not have the pleasure of listening to
Mr. Laird would undoubtedly enjoy
reading the whole, fie spoke a fol
lows :
Turn back one hundred and one
years come September nest. It is tlie
occasion of the first Congress ever as
sembled on this continent. The time
is 5h September, 177 If" and the place
Old Carpenters Hall, Philadelphia
Boston is blockaded. The British
fleet lies broadside up again' the town.
Trade is dead, but the spirit of resist
ance does not bleep. Sam Adams has
r called a Congress. It has mot. 52
members, delegates from all the colo
nics save Georgia. There arc the
Adamses of .Mas., Jay of New York,
Dickerson of Pa., lloudolph, Wash
ington, and Patrick Henry of Virginia,
and Gadsden, and the llutiedgcs from
South Carolina. It is the second day
of the (session. The doors arc closed.
The preliminaries despatched. A
oppressive silence prevails. No man
seems willing to break that silence.
They perhaps begin to notice ior the
'first time the full sublimity of their
position, about to throw down the
challenge of defiance not only to Eng
land, but to ull the world. The coun
try ilauics with impatience. Massachu
setts chained like another Ptomeihcus
to her own royal rocks, because she,
like him, brought firo from heaven,
waits bravely lor deliverance. Still
they pause, but thank God not us
cowards. It was the grandest gather
ing of strength for tho grandest leap
that ever nation has taken yet into the
bloody pool of war. What though be
i'oio their vision come obstacles so
enormous as to obscure tho hope of
others, those were to them but stimu
lus, for wheu right commands there
is no retreat, and added danger does
but doubled honor give. What though
before them rose the stulce the miter
or thii'tomb, they were iu such course
to cither fortune equal. Freedom
never kuows despair, and the right
fchull como to empire though steel of
armies and the crash of doom oppose.
Suddenly, cue of their number stood
up, tall, swarthy, large mouth, high
forehead, burning eyes. lie began
hesitatingly, stumbling through the
first sentences as though oppressed
with the weight of the position. lie
reviews the wrongs of the colonies for
i he last ten years, and .prcsenilyjijs
'.eyes Hash fire ; his voice rings out like
the pcaliug of the trumpet that never
calls retic.it. Ho seemed to speak,
(say the reports) not like mortal man.
He is iu advance of all tho delegates
.-ave Gadsden and the Adamses. He
says, "an entirely new government
must be formed, this is the first in a
never ending succession of Congresses,'
anj then turning upon the assembly,
he seemed to thunder so sublime was
the voice, he uttered the whole his
tory of the Revolution iu one sentence,
"British oppression has effaced the
boundaries of tho several colonies, 1
am no lonucr a Virginian 1 am an
American." Greece stood ou the
platform with Deuiostheues ; Out
raged Rome thundered her maledic
tions against Catiline with the tongue
of Cicero ; The proud eloquence of
Chatham rang the triumphs of the
Eugluh name : France stood still to
hear her Mirabeau ; Ireland herself
pleaded for liberty when Grattan
spoke, and the voice of t'atnek Henry
was the voice of America struggling to
be free. The tide of debate rolled o"n
high and full. Dickeraon tho Penn
sylvania farmer spoke into existence
that uuiversal weapon, "No taxation
without representation." Gadsdeu
said rcplyiug to an expression of fear
regarding the coast towns: "Our
towns are built of wood and brick, if
they are burned down we can build
them up again, but liberty once lost is
lost forever." Washington made this
most eloquent speech, 'i will raise a
thousand men, subsist them at my
own expense, and march with them to
tho relief of Boston." Now with the
first and last Congress before you, I
a.A. you to draw the Hue and strike a
balance. The lt against the 43d, and
tell me whether we have kept the
faith T Do not shrink from the test.
e are citizens ot this republic, co
equal sovereigns of one of the proude-it
realms from the Gauges to the icebergs
have high and mighty rcponi
bilivif's to discbarge. Reverse the
century, put the 43rd Congress where
the 1st one stood, and- tell me, would
wo stand where we do to-day? I do
not know, but if the black omens do
not lie, then judging from the latest
Mobilier, the salary grab,, the Pacific
ropery, and-the geucral subsidy
rottenness, tusieaa or siauumg wncrc
wo do on the heights with the. proud
est uations, we would still be trodden
under the feet of empire, still reeling,
the weight of British chains, chains
all the more galling because riveted by
England's accursed gold. The crimes
of recent legislation cannot be, atoned
by saying there is no more corruption
now than there was then There has
got to be less, or we are drifting surely
to an ignominious doom, and it so by
'whoscitault? by our fault. Let us
meet the issue squarely But you say,
areyou not a Republican ? I am. Why
then assail a Republican Congress ?
Because, con uption is not Republican
or Democratic, it is crime. And if
it were the one or the other, tben let
us auswer-manfally this, before tee art
Republican or Democrats, we are
AlHtricans,. before weare-paxtixass we
are citizens; not of this ac that party,,
bat of the country, and to .har. we owe
first, last and forever, eur lkeef, our
fortums and our aaercf Aeior. We
wilb'staad for our parties ae we start
forour cwiatry aot right er wreag
bK if-tejag t put her Jikt, if right
to awujHhgMt- Woe ?t the Mtioa
andskiMVW'tEe party that under
cloatof partisan fealty shall attempt!
to shelter the pcrpetratcrs of crime
against the country. Party, what is
party? It is a combination or men
who think alike for the accomplish
ment of what they con idcr the public
good. It is the action of principles up
on intelligence, having for its object
the government of the country. Par
ries in th?3 country are the trees of
knowledge, and men are as leaves to
its branches. Shall the tree perish
because the leaves wither beneath cor
rupting wind? No, perish the leaves
but live the good old oak etern.lly,
if it will, while states flourish beneath
ifs shadow. To day we meet not as
partisans, but a citizens ; not as poli
ticians but as Americans, having but
one platform, the constitution and the
laws ; but one altar, that of tho coun
try's good ; but one guide, that of un
selfish patriotism ; but one boa-t. and
that of yon flag that floats so proudly
in the winds exulting in its freedom.
Fki.low Citizens: A few words
upon a. second proposition, and 1 am
done, it is this, that there ia a lack ot
patriotic public spirit on the part of
Lthe people in the matter of politic, as
witness the Credit Mobilier, toe Sal
ary Grab, the Pacific Mail Robbery,
and the general subsidy legislation.
The danger of tho i'Jih century is
from within and nut without And
that danger will arise from this, the
unpatriotic indifference of the people,
their lack of appreciation -of tho rela
tion in which they stand to the general
government, and a want of public
spirit iu the matter of giving the right
dircctipo to tho incipient forces which
'culminate in tho state and national
governments. The caucus governs
the republic, and the nation instead of
being ruled by ten millions of voter is
ruled by less than one. This simply
means that the government instead of
reflecting in its legislation the honesty
und wisdom of its ten millions of vo
ters, reflects mure likely tho dishonesty
and vn-teisdom of the perhaps twu
hundred thousands managers of the
caucuses and conventions, county,
state, and uational. A few years ago
the South introduced us to King Cot
ton. Still a few years, and the farm
ers introduced us to King Corn, and
now Congress and the subsidy lobbyists
have introduced us to King Caucus ;
aud judging of the works of this ques
tionable monarch, it becomes us to bo
alive to our duty. Who that is con
vvrsant with the legislation of the last
lew years doe3 not agree with me
when I say that indifference to any
necessary pnrt of our political machin
ery is a crime ? We have a right to do
as we please, you say, co to or stay
from the caucus aud election. You
havo h right to do as you please only
this far. You can bum your houe,
provided it stands where its burning
will not injure the property of others.
But if it stands iu the streets of your
town, you cannot destroy it without
committing a crime. So you have a
right to neglect your duties as a citi
zeu, providing you know it will not
imperil my rights, or the rights of the
forty million others equally interested
with you in good government, and iut
only them, but the one hundred mill
ions that will come bo fore tho neces
sity fur good laws will die. Genllemcn,
you talk of comnulrory education. We
do not need compul-ory education half
so much as we need compulsory vot
ing, imdJiot compulsory .voting- at the
elections, but at tho caucuses. For
nine tiiuci nut often an erroneous step
tuken by the caucus or convention is
never remedied. i.rou talk of women
voting. Don't talk of that, until the
men havo nerve and public spirit
enough to turn out. In ome places
it is popular "to sneer at politics, and
defile the caucus as corrupt. If cor
rupt, what is Hie duty ? Is corruption
cured by sneers and curses. Where
tho rascals are is the place for men to
go. The men who sneer at polities are
they who lie and sun themselves in
the glorious light, which honest men
have wrenched from the angry fates,
by the force of the bullet and the bal
lot. The caucus is tho cradle of our
laws. From it go forth the infant
forces, which when matured become
the governing forces. Whoever sneers
at the caucus, would. 1 suppose, sneer
at a baby, exclaiming, what is the
good of a dirty baby? It is this good,
that it may become a man, with patri
otism and eloquence enough to well
supplant the fools who dare uot touch
the fundamental forces of our govern
ment for fear of defilement. This is
not a question of choice. The duty is
enforced. Yv'c must govern or go un
governed. The government is what
wo make it, and we are what we make
ourselves; as we are, mut it be. The
government by less than a majority is
no government. But .so are we gov
erned through the fact, that as a rule,
one out of a hundred attends the cau
cus. The natiou needs a political re
vival, and all of us need conversion.
Forty millions governed by less than
one million tells of thirty-nine millions
asleep upon their arms, while the bat
tle of the world rolls before them.
This is whutner we will it or not, a
government of the people, for the peo
ple and by the people. And whoever
I'ecling the danger denies the appeal
which the facts make for a better de
votion to. the practical duties of citi
zenship is one who deserts the line in
the face of the enemy. The future
will be worthy of the past if we are
worthy of tho present. The pivot up
on which eternity wheels is this hour:
and whether concord or discord shall
mark the epochs of tho natiou turns
upon the ability and patriotism with
which the citizens of this day, dis
charge the all embracing duties of this
hour. Humbly though it be, we are
acting iu an audience of age. Those
past are present in history, those to
come are before us in our children and
hopes. Gentlemen, you plouzh deep
and sow carefully. You watch, with
prayerful solicitude for the rain, (aud
in this country for the grasshoppers. )
Yoa are governed in all your acts by
a profound prudence, and all to the
end that you may harvest a fair crop.
I call upon you to exercise the same
prudence with respect to 'the goveru
uieut ofyour country, as you do in the
government ofyour farms. For I be
lieve reflection will teach you that
there is no better season for the farm
er thau that which brings good laws
and an economic administration of the
affairs of the state. We have looked
upon two evils that do ormay threat
en the country. One ari.-iug from a
lack of patriotic devotion to it as a na
tion, the other arising from the lack
of public 'spirited attention to the
makim? ef its-laws. W hat is the rem-
,eiy. The remedy Tor one is the rem
edy for both, .and the remedy tor both
fs in as ia the people; We mast edu

wants systems for the importation of
its reliciou belief. The political God
of allcittzeui sbtu!d be the country.
Tn conclusion, what would I hare ? I
wou?d have every one of you pos9
a loyalty high and .-ublirac and im
moveable as the rocks that underlie
and overtop the sea. And i would
have engraved in your mind yuur
country and all her rlory even as the
rocks are forever engraved on the face
of the placid sea. I would have it
stern, 1 say, and high as the hill?,
but I would hive it restless as the
ocean that never slumbers and is for
ever full. I would have it warm and
beautiful in pence a the sea at calm.
But aroused I would have it terrible
as the relentless ocean smitten by the
storms, which grinds in its furiou
embrace the trembling rocks to pow
dcr. and lifts its raging cret against
the frowning heavens. Do you tell me
we are tale. 1 answer yes, to-day
safe, but safe, only in this, that you
are ignorant of.fanger. "Iltbat man
safe who is drifting in the awful de
scent of Niagara. Safe for a diy, he
may be, but safefor years and "ages
only on the condition that he pull up
stream with a greater force than the
waters pull him down. Hug no de
lusive fancy, ) to morrow .will ot cure
the differences of today. Agwill not
perform the promises of youtii, and to
you who would build the hopes of a
grand national hereafter upoa the prcm
lies that the sky oft. -day it dear, and
tnat the cloud-; of danger ever impend
ing to overshadow men and uations
are dispelled by the sun of our pros
perity which for a hundred years has
been steadily pursuing its oven course,
whether through a calm or stormy sky,
to you I say, you would build, not up
on the rocks anchored by eternal affin
ites to the continent upon whose bosom
they rest ; but you would build upon
an iceberg impenetrable aud enduring
only in appearance, but which would
surely drift from its anchorage at the
coining of tho first sufficient storm ;
and which afloat in the heated seas of
topic discussion would surely difsolve
aud go to pieces leaving you for your
consolation but the contemptible frag
meuts of au otherwise universal state.
Finally, fellow citizens, those among
you who hold views, contrary to those
expressed' here, speaking from the
effervescence of the mind, may exclaim
addressing themselves through you to
the whok country', sleep on great land
iu fieedom, trusting our future safety
to that marvellous patronage of' circum
stances which has borne us so bravely
through pa-t ages. Thus would they
lull us to our destruction, and from
our ruin send freedom forth homeless
upon the world. Thus fa'so confidence
more ruthless thau war brooding ore
the laud shall yet exact vengenco on a
conquered people.
