Those Goths. so much reviled by the ignorant. bore theirfueras for personal and public rights and liberties into Spain in the Dark Ageswhose glory is yet sang in the hymn of Riego. The people of Germany are in accord with the people of this country. I say the people. not the royal personages. But for the great standing armies and the immense power of blood andiron. which means taxation and poverty. emigration and discontent. there would have been perhaps earlier. as there may be in a future day not remote. such an uprising of the old Teutonic element that liberty in her elemental grandeur shall become as resplendent in the Eastern as in our hemisphere. I trust that the House of Representatives will take no backward step. Let us advance!
