Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Porcupine´s Works; Containing Various Writings and Selections, Exhibiting a Faithful Picture of the United States of America, Vol. 6 of 12: Of Their Governments, Laws, Politics, and Resources; Of the Characters of Their Presidents, Governors, Legislators, Magistrates, and Military Men; And of the Customs, Manners, Morals, Religion, Virtues and Vices of the People, Comprising Also a Complete S Messrs. Otis and Gallatin. - Mr. Otis, it seems, has found out, that Mr. Gallatin has talents, if he has not "a second shirt to his back." Perhaps Mr. Gallatin may have made the discovery which others have made, that Mr. Otis has more than a second shirt to his back, and ruffled ones too; and that he has a comfortable share of legal assurance, which sometimes passes for abilities. As the eastern delegate has had his heart softened, and has condescended to compliment Mr. Gallatin upon his speech, what a pity the Pennsylvania delegate could not for a moment forget his dignity and candour, and not only compliment Mr. Otis upon his Boston town-meeting speech, but upon his faculty of stringing words as Yankees firing onions!!! Remarks on the above. - It is not strange that the minds of a certain party should be ruffled by the pointed and conclusive answer of Mr. Otis, to the remarks of their leader, whatever may be the state of their shirts.
