text_original: Could the Federal government open the river? [shouts of 'No, no!' and hisses]. Who opened it? [cries of 'Wilkinson, Wilkinson!']. He said to the Kentucky planters, 'Give your tobacco to me, and I will sell it.' He put it in barges, he floated down the river, and, as became a man of such distinction, he was met by Governor general Miro on the levee at New Orleans. Where is that tobacco now, gentlemen?"
