Washington-, I). C, Dec. 17. Peter
Johnston Otey's speech upon tobacco
ranks easily first of the oratorical efforts
made thus far in the present session of
congress. It was short and funny and
full of curious information. Mr. Otey
comes from the tobarco-growing section
oi Virginia. His home 19 in Lynchburg,
where tobacco factories and tobacco
warehouses are thick in the business
center, and where there is a marked odor
of tiie weed in the atmosphere the vear
round. Mr. Otey wante the ration of
soldiers and sailors of the United States
to include a liberal allowance of both
smoking and chewing tobacco. It was
in support of an amendment to this ef
fect when the army bill wa9 pending
that the notable speech given below was
delivered :
Dressed turkeys, geese, chickens, and
Hooth's eastern oysters at tiie Stadel-

Mr. Otey. Mr. Chairman, it is custom
ary to refer to the fathers, in politics,
religion and business. We revere the
opinions of those who have gone before,
we near great men ot the paet as
witnesses. So in the matter of tobacco
I will not deviate from the time-honored
custom. From its earliest discovery
tobacco hue been considered a curative.
We speak of narcotic poison as if it
would kill on sight, and yet what is
known ub solanine in the potato is an
acrid narcotic poison, 12 grains of which
produces paralysis in a rabbit in two
houre. So Bays Dr. Emanuel Gardiner,
London, a practitioner of "physicke" in
1010, and Dr. John Neander, in Leyden,
1G2. Hariot you all kuow who Hariot
is (laughter) who joined Sir Walter
Raleigh, 15S4, wrote in 15SS a true re
port of the new found land of Virginia.
Speaking of the "Uppowoe," called
afterward tobacco, he said :
They use the leaves to take the fumes
or suibke thereof by sucking through
pipes into the stomach and head, from
whence it purged superfluous "fleams"
aud other gross humors; it opened the
pores and passages of the body, by which
meatiB the use thereof not only pre
serveth tiie body from obstructions,
whereby t heir bodies are notably pre
served in health and knows not many
urievous diseases wherewith all we in
England are ofttimea alTected.
(Applause.)
This is one reason why we should abro
gate the anti-smoking rule in this house,
the fumes of tobacco thus neutralizing
the carbonic acid gas, which is heavier
than the air aud which is always ex
haled from the human system while
breathing, every ounce of which falling
trom these galleries is inhaled by us,
than which no deadlier poison could
enter our frames. (Applause.)
I hope 1 w ill not bo Interrupted by ap
plause, as I have only fifteen minutes.
Further on they say :
Since our return we have foynd many
rare and wonderful experiments of the
virtues of tobacco, of which the relation
would require a volume by itself. The
use of it bv so many men and women of
great calling and some learned physicians
is sumcient witness.
Fairholt says of course no member of
congress is unlamlliar wttn fair noil
(laughter.)
It was to the sanitary effects of to
bacco that the honorable introduction in
Europe was due. Queens, kings and
cardinals bowed to the dictum of
physicians who seemed to look upon the
plant us a divine remeJy for most
disease i and so speedily propounded
cures for all that flesh is heir to from
various agplications, and it was christ
ened Iluba Panacea or Huba Santa.
(Laughter and applause. )
Old poetB note the curative virtues of
tobacco.
Spenser, In his "l'aerio Queene,"
whero ho makes Helphoebe include it us
In other medicinal herbs gathered by
Timius, says:
Into the woiuls henceforth w wont
To Mfk lor lii'iks tlmt mute him reined',.

I lr lullim'llllMl lir I'lllv UOIIV.
Khc liiiniil nurt Immttht It toiler patient dear,
Who "II this wiiuo lay uieemiiK uut ins iioui
blood mar.
After this can anybody deny tobacco
rations to tho defender of our country,
our flag, our honor, both on land und
eea? (Long applause.)
Henry Unties his name la familiar
(laughter; In his curious volume, en
titled "Diet's Dry Dinner," 1799, treats
of the virtues of tobacco as a digestive
power, and says :
Fruit,, hcrl, flesh, fish, white ntitf, stilco,
sauce, nil,
Concoct all by tobacco cordial.
(Laughter.)
He adds :
Its fumes are good against "rumes,"
catarrhs, hoarseness, ache in head,
stomach, lungs and breast.
Gardiner (quoted before), in his "Trial
of Tobacco," speaking of a patient who
could hardly breathe and was given up
by other physicians, said :
Directed him to take tobacco in fume,
and little by little he recovered his
former strength. It is an unguent to
take away all pains of the gout.
'Applanse.)
Remain analyzed it. I will not insult
your intelligence by saying who Remain
was. ( Laughter. 1 Ten thousand parts
of tobacco cases contain :
Six oarts nicotine, one part nicotian-
ine, 'Mi parts butter extractur (bitter
extractive), 174 parts gum mixed with
malic acid, 20 7 parts of green resin,
twelve parts malate of ammonia, 4.S
parts sulphide of potash, 6.!! chloride of
potassium, 9.5 parte potassa which has
been combined with malic and nitric
acid, 16. 0 parts phosphate of lime, 24 2
parts iime which has been combined
with malic acid, 8.8 parts of silica, 490.9
parts of febiores or or ligneous matter,
8S.28 parts of water, traces of starch.
(Applause.)
After this exposition, can you have it
in your hearts to refuse this boon to the
soldier who keeps your honor unsullied
and protects your homes from the ruth
less invader?
The analysis omitted a viscid slime
equally soluble in water aud alcohol and
precipitable from botli the subacetate of
lead ; also chlorophyl, a great pulverulent
matter, which dissolves in boiling water,
but precipitates in cold water; also a
beautiful orange-red dyestuff, soluble
only in acids, but it deflagrates in file.
(Long laughter and applause.) The
animated countenance, the furrowed
cheek, the trembling voice, the bending
frame, the silent tear of an old soldier
impart an interest and gives a touch to
his story that no pen can portray, no
eloquence imitate. His patriotism ex
pires only with hia life ; his soul is en
raptured with enthusiasm; his memory
is on the wink' and runs naeK with
lightning quickness to the battles fought
aud victories won, but lie will recall that
the ration of tobacco plucked from his
mind a rooted sorrow, razed out the
written troubles of tiie brain, and with
his sweet, oblivious antidote cleansed
the bosom of perilous stun" that weighed
upon his heart. (Long and continued
applause.
