Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Letter to the Hon. Horace Mann
Since even under the aristocratic govern ments of the Old World, a cat is proverbially per. Mitted to look at a king, much more, in this land of democracy, may a private individual address without previous introduction a Member of Con gress. Undeniable is it, that our private individ uals have not been slow to use and abuse this pri vilege, and numbers of them make it their busi ness to bother public men on all occasions, in or out of season. Nor should I have been willing to follow so many bad examples, had you not, in some sense, yourself given the provocation.
