I oo not want to revive any or the old controver eieaV f would be happy to know they were blot ted out of the page ef our country's history ; but I woo Id ask any man to consider bow much now-, fifteen thousand men in a particular locality in the United Sates hold, not only over tbe destinies aod happiness of the people of this country, but -i . . r l '-! t-l T Vr IDOSe 01 neignuuri"K rriuuiit. iw uicu we're Presented to vou in 1911 one, fn reference to the great questions then aghated, said "Elect me. and Texas, acotfnlfy as hrrge in geographical surface 'as tbe whole empire of France, shall be annexed W the United States, Smd shall come within in lairgt of outQorornment, with or with out the consent of Music o. the parent republic. am not going' to diacuss m het ythat was a wrong or tight proposition.

' If this country, however, was benefit ed bv that annexation if it be a mallet of great interest to 'die people of Ohio that fi ve or six State Jet 10 be lliaoo in me present minis oi i rj e settled by her people, where it shall be law that one man having a hundred negroes shall hare as much political power as sixty one inhab iting these plantations if it be a matter of much felicity to yon that that state of things is brought about, then these fifteen thousand men did wi ll in keeping Clay out of office, and bringing in Tex ' s.
