Samuel S. ( ox.
.Mr. Cox Huid: No subject in hard
to iti-l no. In iin-laiili vtifh trai.m cikI-
entitli-m it applied lo ideas beyond
experience lis origin is older tliim
tlio dreamers ol Germany or tin'
subtle intellects ol' Now England.
It is us old n Aristullo who dcliiied
it lis embracing everything no in his
ten categories. Koni adopted this
(lellniticiii. tinil I'rotn his grotesque
pipo pulled out his inin'r idea"
through which objects wore only
pictured its phenomena. Mingling
Willi tin" imagery of his fancy those
idealisms loll tlio spectator more in
tho exercise ofh is wonder Until of
his faculties. Wo aro reminded by
tlicm of tho throe brothers Ilagi.
Kui'i nnd Magi : Uniri took a tnrcli
nnd jitinpod down Kiiji'ii throat ;
Kni'took a torch nnd jumped down
Magi's throat nnd Mau'i jumped his
own throat leaving tlio (.pectators
entirely in the dark. This in to bu
transcondont. Laughter.
Mr. Cox referred to tho New Eng.
Innd mutual ndmirntionistn. who
pleased ihemnelvc with thinking
they understood tho jargon. JFe
gave some ludicrous definitions ol
his suhject. Its disciples wero intel-
lcctunl' acrobats; useless ihongli
agile lie gave n sketch of Carlyle
Emerson their copyists disci-
ples paraboxes. mid style. They
lacked humility docility and re-
ligion. lLoraco Mann olio of tho
sect charged tlio orthodox New
England mind with believing in
the vicarious atonement only be-
cause they drove n sharp bargain
with (iod getting everything and
giving nothing just as their I'urilan
ancestors treated tho Indians. The
New York Tribune an organ of tho
sect has within a few months culled
for h new bible and religion. Em-
erson came of clerical stock Puri-
tan; but it look eight generations
to reduce tlio Pttrifan toa Transcond-
otitalist yet one is tho outgrowth of
tho other. To understand tho for-
mer we must trace tho hitter in his
history not as he is painted by New
England literature but ns he is;
not tho great Puritan of English
history who stayed in England and
fought the good fight but tho little
Puritan who ran to this country to
get rid of the battle of Armageddon!
It is extremely entertaining for
one who knows anything of tho
"oriijines Xttve Amjliie" tho begin-
nings of these "plantations of God
in tlio wilderness" to read n report
of n New England Society's dinner
in one of our great cities. On theso
occasions amid a popping of cham-
pagne corks which would have
sounded in the ears of Cotton Mather
liko a salute of tho musketry of hell
fired in honor of a witches sabbath
yon shall hear sotno eloquent Uni-
tarian divino glorify tho religious
freedom established under Plymouth
Kock and some smiling abolitionist
buttoning up his last contract for
guns o." tin cups in his breechi'B
pocket dilate upon tho wide human-
ity which crossed tho ocenn in the
Mayflower for Manhattan but was
dexterously caromed by the subtle
Dutch burghers into Massachusetts
Bay I
Now. just fancy the entertainment
which tho Unitarian divine with
his rcthetic notion of tho Deity and
his neat little theories about tho
ntonelTient would have received I
from the worthy men who kicked .
Mrs. Hutchinson todeath and hunt-
ed Roger Williams into Rhode
Island! Or imagine the sanctity
with which Mr. Wendell Philips
would have been treated to a dance
in thoairon Boston Common if lie
had presumed to recommend negro
suffrage to tho silver-buckled and
elaveholding magistrates of Massa-
chusetts Bay in the year of our Lord
1605. ' !
Why even so late as tho year
1788 when the solid men of Huston
met in conclave with the inoiiiiluin-
eers of Berkshire and the farmers
ot "rich and rural Worcester" to
franio a new Constitution for Massa-'
chusctts which they gravely de-
clared should be "perpetual and un-
alterable." they provided that if any
"African or negro" not being a
subject of tho Enuieror of Morocco
should bo caught hanging about tho
old Bay Stute he or she might bo
ordered by any magistrate to "got
out of that'' with dispatch with the
further specification that if within
te"u days' timo the order was not
obeyed tho African should be whip-
ped on the hare back not exceeding
ten stripes and again politely in
formed that his room was considered
more desirable than his company.
It wa further provided that the
aforementioned whipping be repeat
ed "loier quortet lilt the be-cow-skinncd
blackamoor shouM travel.
The exception made in favor of tho
subjects ofthn Emperor of Morocco
oddly illostrnlos the old saying that
there "is nothing like leather." The
Bostonee had much traffic in those
day with the Moor. Though ther
lovcd not the aostract negro stiii
' when he came bringing bag of sil-
ver and gold they n tMheilo's
visage in has purse! They could 1

peror was in a similar conjunction.
. lie had raiscf a tax from a very tin-
' savory source of inrrial revenue
and when his fastidious ron objected
to the proceeding canght op a coin

know no more provoking absurdity
in history than the perpetual recur-
rence of the New England writer
and speakers who have manufac-
tured so much tuil'li" ojiinon f r so
many years in America lo the I'll-
grims of lli2(l as tlio founders of
American liberty morals and pros-
perity. The matterhas been so but-
tered over with blarney and rigma-
role that if a man simply looks into
the reali'ies of i hat momorab'e exo-
dus and honestly lolls what he sees
he is sure to be assailed. Hash man !
he is lampooning the fathers of our
race! or. as tiie Orientals would
put it dancing a jacka.-s dance on
the graves of our ancestors!
One might laugh at this just as
he does at the vanity of the Chinese
who really think their emperor de-
scended from the sun or the moon
or of the liiseaynns. who are sure
that Adam spoke the most elegant
Basoue. wero it not for the evil ef
fects it has wrought in tho past and ready improve--still
daily works upon oiir morals tan. A happy
our manners and our politics.
I do not propose to weary you to-
night with u historical sketch of the
rise and progress of the American
race as we may now fairily enough
begin to call it. But while 1 main-
tain that tho people who really re-
vile the Puritans of 10'20 are they
who protest that those iron-clad ad-
venturers meant to breed a genera-
tion of transcendeiitists free lovers
abolitionists rationalists and social-
ists I maintain also that the New
England element in our national
story but that almost all our troub-
les and diflieulfics have arisen out
of it. Cheers
Four New England talkers and
orators are 'forever claiming thai
whatever is best in America is of
New England origin. I desire to
record my faith on the contrary
that whatever is best in New Eng-
land is of American oritrin. I mean.
that is to assert that New England .
owes on tho vhole. even more to i
her sister colonics who had become
her sister Stiites than they owe to
her. Anil slavery now her special
boast sho steals from the Quaker
and religious liberty from tlio Cath-
olic and Baptist all of which sects
were persecuted by her. I do not
now estimate as a part of our debt
to her the moral discipline wo owe
to her vexatious and repcllant qual-
ities. In the middle ages pious pur-
sons used to itit peas into their
shoes when thev went on n )ilgrim- '
n"o. Thoy hoped thereby to insure
their safe arrival in Heaven through

Asa matter of Revolutionary his
tory wc all know that the New
England colonics would never havo
ventured upon the assertion of their
rights against Parliamentary usur-
iition had they not been In Id up
to the world by tho m.ign nlmous
and high soulcd people of their sis-
ter colonics. Is it not of record that
when the Massachusetts ' Great and
General Court" met at Salem in
June 1774. und the delegates were
"lected who were to meet the com-
mittees of the other colonies and lay
the fn n Jation with them of Amer
ican independence and nationality.

'skedaddle" of his iriv.-oltste and
timid fellow member? To this
course bo was nrged by Warren
who wrote to him at ibis time "the
party who are paying for the tea
and by that making way for every
comiifiance. aro too formidable. '
Warren agreed with him in thinking
ln V.u- I'c.'hiiiil neit her could m r

herself. Indeed w hen hisown peo-
ple sought for fit praises to bestow
vm this brave tirin-spiriCod and
original Democrat Sam Adams
they were forced to decrihe him.
not' ns a Puritan nor a model Pil-
grim but a "one ot Plutar.Vs
men."
Referring to fact of history to
susta n ibis view Mr. Cox nent-
fiirther back to the coming of the
Mayflower to ihow that the irreat
Puritans. Cromwell. lYm. IIfimi'dcn
and Eliot were left alone lo ficht
Che great battle againt prelacy and
kingcraft. Lather did not rnn sway
from Worms nor to go to Holland
or to a wilderness. True heroism
stands op to its work. But wair-
inrthcqiietion hy did not the
Piirit.ii! stay in England and fight
it ont? ' we onht to rcmeinlH-r that
it was by no choice of their Chat
thev came ii.Coa bow ling wildcrtK

made Bp their minds to quit in-d-it-ing

went into Holland -which was at
