NO PEACE WITH ARMED TRAITORS.
"THE UNION MUST AND SHALL BE PRESERVED."
DANIEL S. DICEINSON'S SPEEN,
In Cortland County, New York, on
Tuesday, September 3, 1861
M. PRF.SIDENT. LADIES, AND GENTLEMEN:
Whence this mighty gathering before me. and all
around me, and for what purpose? Whence and
why these spires pointing to heaven, telling of re
finement and religion Whence them inetitutiong
of learning? Whence these beautiful abodes, these
gathering-places of affection, around whose hearth
:tones a free and happy people cluster? Whence
this beautiful valley spread out here, no less
beautiful than this sky, so'," darkly, deeply. beau
tifully blue?" Whence, I repeat, this vast assem
blage of happy people, and from whence do they
come? They are all the fruits of free and happy
institutions, the fruits of a good and beneficent Go
vernment. where every one enjoys the fruits of his
own industry, and where the Government, like the
dews of heaven, and like God's genial sunshine,
hilt! down an every one alike; wliei% all ate fes
tered and none oppressed; where no sickness
wastes at noonday ; whore no oppressor raises the
poor man's latch in the name of despotism, but
where every one literally site under the shade of
his own vine and fig-tree, and there is none to mo
lest or make hint afraid. Leek over the nations
of the earth in the Old World—there God's chil
dren are born to the same destiny as ourselves—
and see them degraded to the earth under the
most abject vassalage, when- they are as good by
nature as we. Who made us to differ under Him
who governs all things here below It, is the dif
ference in government! Ono enjoys the fruits of
his own industry ; the other is made to toil, to gild
the. chariot wheels driven over his neck.
One toils on with nothing but opinion to control
him, and that free, and the other toils to feed the
soldier who stands over him with his bayonet to
awe him into subjection. It is that which, nza k co
us different from the Old World. Here, education,
refinement, and religion ; there, oppression, work,
poverty—extreme poverty or extreme wealth, with
pride and lust and luxury driving her ebon car
over the laboring population. To whom are we in
debted for these great blessings? We are indebt
ed, under Heaven, to a good Government, to the
Government of Washington—such a Government as
the sun never shone upon before—the first and last
free Government on earth; and if this Govern
ment shall be destroyed, pray tell me where will
!ha dove of liberty, crossing aver the waters of op
pression, find - a place to rest her foot? Let us
come together, as we have come here by hundreds
and thousands, not as politicians, but as the people
—come together and offer up our thanksgiving to
Heaven, and commune together. and say whether
Wit great and beneficent Governinent can be main
tained in all its richness and beauty.
WHY THERE SHOULD BE ACTION
We come here. not as Democrats. not as Repub
licans, not as Abolitionists, not as Americans, but
we come here as the people. Seeing that the ene
my are at the gates of the citadel, seeing that
armed rebellion is threatening us, we come together
to stay up the hands of the Constitution and cling
to its pillars, swearing in our faith if these institu
tions fall, as the people we fall with them. [Cheers.]
The question is not, " Who is at the head bf this
Administration?" and I shall not inquire whether
big name be Abraham Lincoln or Andrew Jackson.
He is the people's representative of the Govern:
ment, and for those who like him and confide in
him, it is their duty to do all they can to sustain
him and those who do not, it is their duty to do
much more. [Cheers.] Those who believe that he
and his Administration are adequate, can rejoice in
the pride of their strength ; and those who believe
he is not adequate should come forward and whip
their horses and call upon their Hercules and put
their shoulder to the wheel, I shall not adopt your
political principles, if you are an opponent of mine
—as many of you are—and I don't ask you to
adopt mine : but I ask you to go with me in a great
and common duty, which concerns us all alike : to
•shield the Government first from rebellion and de
struction ; and then, if there is a question who
shall govern it afterwards, we will dismiss that on
another day. [Cheers.] Igo for the preservation
cf this Government, and I go to cleave him down,
as Saul did Agag, who undertakes to destroy it;
and it is of little consequence to me whether the
enemy of the Government is in arms, or whether
he is aiding the armed ; whether he ie. a rebel or an
aid to rebellion ; whether he points the fatal wea
pon at the bosom of his fellow-man, or whether he
aids or encourages another to do it; whether he
applies the torch to the capital of our country and
attempts to burn it to ashes and destroy its archives,
or whether he is an apologist and connives and en
courages it under the tongue of peace. I have
earned what little reputation I enjoy before the
public by standing by the Constitution, and I intend
to stand by it as long as there is one single shred of
the Constitution left ; and whether it is assailed by
opinion or arms, by North or by South, by one
class or by another, I care not. He is the ihe to
the Government who assails it, and my foe, and I
dare him to a trial, of the strength of the Constitu
tion anti the Union before the people.
THE REASONS FOR UNION
I had hoped, my fellow , citizens ; until this rebel•
lion broke out, that I could elaim exemption from
further public services. I have been some time
retired from official service. My ambition had been
satisfied and chastened. I had no desire to appear
in these conflicts before my fellow-citizens. I be
lieved the time had come which should lead me to
the contemplation of other subjects, which should
permit me to indulge in the pursuits I love, which
should leave me to attend to interests which had
been long neglected ; and should enable me, in
short, to enjoy that repose which approaehing age
would by and by demand ; that quiet that should
beguile my vacant hours and be the companion of
my age, and should attend me when the evening of
life should draw her curtains about me ; but when
this rebellion broke out I determined to take the
field and see if I could rally my fellow-citizens to
the exigencies which menace them, and for that
purpose I speak to see if we can understand alike
the dangers that threaten us. It is now no occasion
for holiday display. Our citadel is in danger. The
very existence of the institutions under which we
live are threatened, and there are but two sides to
this question. One is in favor, and the other is
against it. There can be no doubt of the result of
this matter if properly prosecuted ; 'and we are em ,
barrassed more to-day by attempts to connive at the
rebellion within, than we are at the rebellion itself.
For there is strength enough and power enough of
men and money, and material and determination
to crush this rebellion to the very earth, where it
deserves to be crushed. There is no other way to
deal with it. The Administration has unquestion
ably put forth its best efforts lem not the chosen
defender of the Administration. lam its political
opponent, when I act politically; but in emergen
cies of this kind I intend to rise above political con
siderations entirely. [Loud cheering.]
TEE UNION BEFORE POLITICS
I change no political opinions. I say political
opinions have nothing to do with the question, one
way or the other. It is not who shall tenant and
govern the capital. It is not who shall govern this
great State and nation. It is. " shall it be pre
served for any party to govern ?" [Cheers.] Now,
none shall escape from that issue. There are no
slippery and filthy stepstones by which political
office-seekers crawl away from that, either up or
destrt, It is a question of existence—Qv exigence—
and he who is not for maintaining that existence is
for destroying it. The Administration has come in
with a thousand embarrassments around them—
corruption and treason in every department to the
very lips; military officers betraying their com
mand, navy offiesre stealing their ships; officers
in the mint and in the custom houses, and in every
department, stealing its property or turning it to
the enemy—and a new Administration, with a new
Cabinet, coming in as a party Administration,
having only the confidence of a part of the people,
had all kinds of embarrassment on its hands. Bat
so far as they have done what I commend, I com
mend them for it. If they have not done all I
would myself have done under like circumstances—
if they have been remiss, it is the provinde of the
people to call them to account, and ask them to
administer the Government so as to put down the
rebellion at the earliest moment. Now, the sin -
that most easily besets the American people is
politics. Everything is politics in this country.
Like the frogs, and lice, and locusts of Egypt, it
comes up - .in the bed, and the kneading trough.
Polities is what ale was to Boniface wa eat, and
drhsk, and deep on polities, [laughter and ap
plause,] and if I wish to find a traitor toheaven and
earth, and find a name to curse the knave, I would
call him a mean, managing, grog-house politician.
[Laughter and applause.] Even in the matter of
this great crisis, which threatens our very country
and existence, there is en attempt going forward to
raise a political party upon it. ".Why don't you
rally up to sustain this Government ?" " Why)
those Abolitionists kindled this fire." " Well,
what difference does that make ? does it burn any
more than if Democrats had kindled it ?" The
Is, 126* Can we arrest die flame—not who
kindled it. Tour church is on fire, and you are
summoned to save it.. The house is on fire - and
burning, and threatening the destruction of the
dwelling beside it, so that
tt The blackness of ashes shall mark where it stood;
And a wild mother scream o'er her famishing brood."
But the Baptists say that the Methodists set it, and
the Presbyterians say the Baptists set it. and the
t
Methodists say that both ofhe others it;
it, or
might have prevented it, and no one will endeavor
to extinguish the flames! What a spectacle for a
Christian people We hear the cry of " fire," and
the engines rattling, and the cry of alarm arises
from all, but the great majority hang back and say,
" I didn't set it on fire. I told them that banding
would get on fire if they didn't look out, and I
shad help put it out." But I hold it is of no con
sequence how the fire came—it is burning. It is
not Mr. Lincoln's house, but it belongs to the Ame
rican people—not only to the present generation,
but to generations to come throughout the long
track of future time. Our fathers planted this Go
vernment. They had but a faint and feeble idea
of what they were doing. They looked forward to
the day-star of their hope for a Government of free
dom, but had no conception that this great and
mighty Government would arise up from their be
ginning. Now we have a far greater duty to dis
charse than our fathers had. They fought for an
experiment—they fought for Lope. DLit lists this
rich inheritance is spread out before us, and all we
have to do is-to preserve it. No marching barefoot
over frozen ground, amidst poverty, sickness, and
starvation. No toil and labor, such as our fathers,.
endured. All we have to do is to employ the mighty
elements that they, under Providence. furnished
us, and we deserve the most abject slavery if we do
not preserve such institutions when they have been
vouchsafed to ne. Engraft political parties upon
the question of putting down this scourge? I would
as soon engraft a political party on the Asiatic oho.
lera. on the yellow fever, when sweeping over the
land, as though Heaven bad repented the making
of man. and were shovelling them in the sepulchre
together. [Laughter.]
KlittrY
But there is such an attempt going on now in or
der that scurvy politicians may ride into office upon
it, or have an organization that they can manage.
It is not the Democratic party. I repudiate it for
Democracy, np . and down, and round about, and di
agonally, and in every other sense; but it is east
, of self-constituted meddlers ; the Mrs. Cunning
hams of the Democratic party, who are in labor
with their bogus baby that they may claim the De
mocratic inheritance. [Loud laughter and conti
nued cheering.] They deceive nobody but them-
Feint. The Democrats ; following the true Demo.
cracy of the country, will never enlist in it. The
Democratic party arose out of the Constitution.. It
is its life-blood and its soul, and vitality, and it can
no more subsist without the Constitution for Ridge
than a Lail can 8 14 1 )40 On go? prohod Awl mid
sands. They expect to inaugurate a party because
the President of the United States is not conducting
this war according to the Constitution. They have
laid out a constitutional chart, upon which they ask
him to travel, turning his toes to the true constitu
final angle, and taking every step according to the
Constitution. I expect those administering the Go
vernment to go according to the Constitution, bat
have toy own views of what is the Constitution,
and what the rebellion, and what the duty of
the Administration in putting deen the rebellion,
and I have an idea what I would do in putting
it down if I had charge of. it. The Constitution,
for all civil government, and for the raising of
armies, and for the declaration of war, etc., etc., is
a great land-mark and charter, and xes and de
fines the rules and regulations for the President
and his Cabinet ; and Congress, too, most observe
the Constitution, or its enactments are not binding.
But there is such a thing as a war power, and that
seems to have been overlooked, misunderstood by
some and entirely ignored by others, I have no
doubt by design. They tell you that the Presi
dent has no power to do certain things, lie is
usurper and tyrant, and it occasions these patriot;
exceeding pain to find the President going against
the Constitution. It has not touched their tender
hearts to see Jeff. Davis S: Co. erect a government
within the bounds of the United States. It has not
hurt them to see them fire on Sumpter and the
&tail and stripes, and commit treason in the fans of
the Government. But they are afraid that in put
ting that rebellion down, the President of the
United States won't go exactly according to the
Constitution, for they would dislike to see the re
bellion put down unless it was put down according
to the lines of the Coratitutioo, .Feeitnde artfn?!
RUMORED DEATH OR DAVIS
The telegraph to-day tells us Jeff Davis is dead.
I believe it is true, but I attach no particular poli
tical consequence to it. I would much rather have
seen him dying under the flag and Constitution of
hi s coun try. Dot I forbear remarks for the pre
sent. for when the Almighty lays his hands on a
man I will take mine off. [Laughter.] " God
works in a myterious way His wonders to perform."
We hoar, too, that the Jeff. _Davis, the pirate ship,
has been wrecked by accident. lam sorry to hear
of that, for / hoped to see the day when she would
be sunk by a vessel of war, and her murderous crew
with her.
A Voice. "Would that be constitutional?''
Yes; that would be according to my constitu
tion. [Laughter and cheers.]
THE POWERS OP THE PP.ESIDL•NT
There seems to be en idea that the President can
do nothing except what is written in the Constitu
tion. For instance, if he is going to have an army
to put down rebellion, they must march right and
left, as the military phrase is, according to the di
rection of the Constitution, or stand still. The Con
stitution is a great landmark, and not a bill of par
ticular& [Cheers.] Every power given by the
Constitution directing a thing to be done, always
implies the power to do it. If the Constitution
erects a Government, it presupposes the mainte
laminae of that Government by all the until
and ordinary means within the reach of that
Government ; and in times of war and in times of
rebellion there is a power arising from the very
necessity of the ease that controls the whole ques
tion ; and when you hear the small-beer politician
prating on the idea of unconstutionality, ask him in
the first place whether ho thinks it exactly consti
tutional for men to go into the United States Senate
and in the Rouse of Representatives and in the
army and navy, and one day swear, , "l do swear, in
the presence of Almighty God, that I will observe
the Constitution of the United States, and I will
discharge the office or duty of Senator according to
the best of my ability,"—ask him, if after having
taken that oath, and while it is yet warm on his
lips, if At is unconstitutional for him to try to raise
rebellion? and when he has answered that, tell him
if there is perjury in hell, it is that kind of per
jury. [Loud and continued cheering.] I say
that the Administration—any Administration, I
don't care whether it is one of my choice or one of
my opposition—hes the right to do everything by
implication, according to the laws of war, for the
maintenance of our Government; and if they do not
do it, I will be one for dealing with them and call
ing them traitors themselves.
'how, it is supposed that there is no war power
except which arises out of and is prescribed
by a written constitution. There is a power upon
which the Constitution stands, that lies beneath the
Constitution and rises above the Constitution, and
is on and under the Constitution; it is the great
law of self-preservation—for communities, nations,
and States, as well as individuals. It is older than
this Government. It is as old as civilization. It
had no rise in the Constitution. It arises in the
very necessity of the existence of civil government.
WRIT OF HABEAS CORPUS.
Smith, one of the earliest writers on law, and par
ticularly on martial law—one of the earliest writers
of Great Britain—says, - Martial law is the law of
war that depends upon the just but arbitrary power
and pleasure of the King.' The people here act
as King and the President as the agent of the peo
ple. " For though he doth not make any law but
by consent in Parliament, yet in time 'of war, by
reason of the necessity of it, to guard against den
im that arises, he uses absolute power, so that his
word is law." Then, I say, away with all your
stuff about the necessity of having a written
guaranty for everything the President may do to
preserve the Government. I say it is a part
of his oath to standby and save the coun
try, and employ Such means as he believes
wilt do it ; and if he does not do it he deserves to
be impeached. This is the law of all nations, and
alwayslas been. But there is the law of habeas
corpus, and that has been invaded, and the Presi
dent has violated it, and has not allowed some
traitor to be released, and has suspended the writ.
Ile has done exactly right ; and I did say, a while
ago, that in some eases, if I could not have ar
rested the treachery, I would have suspended the
individual with it, and I have not changed my
opinion much since. What an idea it would be !
Hero is a rebellion in Baltimore, or in Missouri,
and a traitor in league with the enemy, and by his
conduct he is about to cause our armies to be sacri
ficed—our very Government in danger, its exist
ence is imperilled—the lives of a large number of
persons sacrificed. He is known to be a traitor—
morally known. He has been tracked out and as
certained, and yet he must be brought up before a
a judge and examined, and if there is not legal,
technical evidence against him he must be dis
charged ; and if Government don't like it they
must appeal, and get it up before a court at some'
future time, that may sit anti may not, and enter
upon a litigation as protracted as the chacery suit
in Bleak House
=EI
The law of war acts right up to the necessities of
the occasion—it brings men right up to time, and
treats them practically and according to the emer
gencies of the occasion. But to suspend the " Li
berty of the Press !" Oh, }too bud Lutl.4—to have
the press anspended. (Laughter.] The liberty of
the press ! You say anything to them on the sub
ject of the Government —" liberty of the
press" is the first thing you hear. The press
has liberty enough ; and herb let us, shake
the wrinkles out of this befogged and petl
fogged question a little. The liberty of the
press is a great and sacred right and blessing.
But the liberty of the press is no greater a right
than individual liberty, and than a thousand other
rights. The liberty of the press is to be enjoyed so
long as it does not aid in the destruction of the
Government ; so long as it is an engine for good
and not for evil ' • so long as it is an element for pre
servation and not for destruction. The idea is the
most idle, foolish, and mischievous that ever exist
ed, to allow an infernal machine of treason to exist
and work its errand of mischief, because it is a
"Press." The liberty of fire is a great right. We
could not do without it. It is necessary for warmth,
for preparation of food, for propelling machinery,
and for a thousand purposes, and every one has a
right to enjoy it. But one comes at the dark and
fearful heneof midnight, and, with a lurch, passes
from dwelling to dwelling, and lights up the dark
ness of midnight with the flames of happy homes.
Ile is arrested, and says: "You deprived me of
the liberty of fire ! What a tyrannous and abomi
nable Government ! Fire is free, and lam merely
using this right guarantied to me by the Constitu
tion, and now lam deprived of it! What a tyran
nous Government, to deprive a citizen of the liberty
of fire!"
The right of implements of husbandry, too, is a
great right. In our wooden country, the right of
wielding the axe is a great right. But suppose an
individual should use the axe, instead of cutting
wood or splitting rails, for splitting his neighbor's
head open. Ile-would-be deprived of that liberty,
and then he would cry out, what tyranny ! The
right of the axe is sacred ! Every man must have
that right. Tho right of individual liberty is one
of the most sacred rights under :heaven; afar
above the right of the press, and every other
right. Yet, when a man converts himself from
the enjoyments of true manhood to the destruc
tion of his neighbor's property, put him in pri
son. And when you hear this idle parrot prate about
the Liberty of the Press," tell him it is to be en
joyed so long as it upholds right, and it is not to be
an engine of destruction going about on its merci
less errands. In my opinion, Mr. Lincoln ought, to
have laid his hand upon a great many treasonable
journals which he has not done. [Cheers.] A
more abominable abuse never existed. If Satan
bad been let loose after his confinement of a thou
sand years, he could not have done more mischief
than these miserable treasonable journals. lam
fur strop. , measures. I did not learn my Democra
cy in thersehool of management, or lobby, or Wat
ery, I learned it at the bar of Andrew Jackson's
court, where it was patriotic, and where it taught
that true Democracy was not inconsistent with true
duty. Why, its first duty was to uphold the Con
stitution, and, in the language of thelson of Man,
"render to Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and
to God the things that be God's." This is tree De
mocracy! I repudiate all the teachings in the
name of Democracy from treasonable sources. They
have no authority to speak. No true Democrat
will follow such lead. They stand by the start and
stripes of their country, and I wish the false sons
could look upon it as the children of Israel did
upon the brazen serpent, and be healed of Secession
wounds. [Applause.]
DUTY OF DEMOCRATS
Any Democrat that undertakes to embarrass the
Administration, whether he loves or hates it, in
such a crisis as this, is no Democrat and no good
citizen, and ought be put up as a monument for
scorn to point her slow, unmovinr , finger at. His
genuineness must bo about equal to that of the old
Revolutionary soldier I have heard of in the in
teigoi- of Pennsylvania . The lehabliante of the
place had determined on having a 4th of July cele
bration of the old-fashioned, spread-eagle kind, and
looked for a man for a Revotutionaryaoldier to give
interest to the occasion, and finally succeeded in
finding one an old German. Do was brought a
great distance and plaeta upon the ratafortu neer
the orator, who waxed grandly eloquent upon the
daring and patriotic deeds of the surviving hero,
and at the close of the oration he was desired to
give some of his personal recollections of the war.
You," said the president, " must have known
Washington ?" " Yea, I Itiie* him." " Where
did lon meet him ?" "At Trenton." " Were
you in the battle ?" " Yes, I surrender to Vashing
ton." " You surrender to Washington ! How was
that ?" " I vos von hessian !" [Great laughter.]
NOW, I think when you find menluating about the
Dereoentey embarrassing the Administration at
such a time as this, when you inquire their history,
you will find they were " von. Hessian. '

TRH " BLACK REPUBLICANS."
They arc distressed for fear I am going to turn
Black Republican, or Abolitionist, or something,
particularly those gentlemen that were not in Buf
falo in '4B. They are so much afraid of Black
Republicans and Abolitionists now that they cannot
be with them in arresting rebellion. ThOae wry
men, some of them, had my name published so long
in black letters, for standing by the Constitution,
that I am not so much afraid of what is black as
they seem to be. I think it will be well for them to
review their own history. I have fought the Re
publicans all my dm a, and will again when I please;
but when they will go with me to put down ra
hellion in aims. I will go with them. I do not re
. •
re
gard my political virtue so weak that I am afraid
to test it. Captain Marryatt tells of. a ,lady at a
boarding-school tlit4t Relit into thlrmicr, Kid act
ing a gentleman, came runnin ,, r
out, crying, "A
man, a man !" And so it is with these politicians ;
they are afraid they will get too near a Black Re,
publican. and lose their Democracy in spite of them:
selves. But history and a somewhat enlarged ex
perience have taught me that it i 3 not always the
most virtuous that make the most parade of their
virtue.
THE CRY OF PEACP
The great cry now :' Peace. "They say. There
must be peace." We arc all in favor of peace. I
tion't doubt but that many honest men. Demoerals
and others, thiok it attainable by negotiation with
rebels, but any one'who will look at it with half ell
eye can see that it is impossible. What is this ques
tion we are treating of? It. is one of the most
formidable rebellions, and one of the most causeless
and wicked, that hare ever been since Satan's rebel
lion in heaven. A greater army is attempting on
this continent to overthrow the Government than
has ever been on the continent before; and now
those who are attempting to put it down are met
in the field by the stolen weapons of the United
Slides Government-0' the Accra who have been
laden with the honors and had their military edu
cation at the expense of the American people. They
are attempting to do what? To dissolve this holy
Union—attempting to destroy forever the Govern
ment of Washington. And who is attempting to
aid them? Not men who march by their side, for
they are eomparatively entitled to consideration
fur their manhood, but men nro among us every day
crying" Peace," and sowing this insidious disease
among the people ; and this very press is tramp
ling on the rights of every man and' the Govern
ment ; and when our arms are reversed and the
enemy prevails over us, then it is that they , rejoice.
Stand up, Mr. Apologist for Secession, and let us
see whether you can face au indignant people.. In
what work are you engaged ? Attempting to de
stroy the government of your fathers? "I am not
trying to do that. lam in fi,vor of peace." Every
widowed woman, made so by this rebellion, has a
right to look upon you, sir, as the murderer of her
husband. Every orphan may look upon you as the
guilty wretchithe destroyer of its natural protec
tor. The loyal citizen, too, looks upon you as one
who aids and abets treason, and furnishes aid and
comfort to the enemy. Your hands are rod with
blood—blood of your murdered citizens. Ah, in
this brief war how many have been sent down with
violence and butchery to the grave ! How many
bitter, unavailing tears have been shed! How
tummy pure and gentle hearts have been crushed
and broken ! And still you cry peace, when you
know there is /liepeke Come, take arras In your
hands and stand by their side and point your bayo
nets at the breasts of your own brethren here, or
else help ns put it down. You will stand as men
with men and be no more guilty in the sight of God
to take arms, than to encourage others to do so.
[Applause.] The party that attempts to de this
ought to sink. Any party ought to sink to infamy
that cannot lay aside its polities in this crisis; and
should the Democratic party, with all its ancient
history, attempt carrying this question by opposing
itself to this war, there would not be enough of
them left for finger•boards to point to the burial
ground where the whole party will be engulphed
together. [Applause.]
A WARNING FROM HISTORY
Federalists of 1812 were one of the most powerful
parties that ever lived. There has never been such
a galaxy, and, I may say, aristocracy of talent in
the country as was in the old Federal party. But
they were swept away, so that, like the servants of
Job, there was scarce one left to tell of the destruc
tion of the others. They opposed the war of 1812,
and there never was a war more shabbily conducted
than that was for a long time. Mr, Madison's Ad
ministration had not comprehended the great exi
gencies of the case. The capital was actually
seized by British troops. Our towns were burned
and our flag disgraced by the enemy. We were
disgraced by those who should be friends, and the
Federalists opposed themselves to that war, which
is not a thousandth part of the wickedness of those
who oppose a war to crush this rebellion, and still
they were swept away, with not a single vestige
left remaining. Some lay this to one cause and
some to another. It is not very material what it
was but it is important for us to know how we can
meet the great exigencies of the occasion. We
cannot acquit ourselves by half supporting and half
opposing. You can't make up a kind omermaid
support, half woman and halt fish. It must be the
whole eiftent of one or the other. If it is intended
to put this rebellion down, it must be taken strong
hold of; and it is the duty and the highest privi
lege of the American people to put it down, and
put it down forever. Treat with it, and make
liberal propositions of peace." Those have become
the catch words of the day. "I am in favor of
prosecuting the war and or maintaing the Union,
but I would at the same time make the most liberal
propositions of peace."
THE ABSURDITY OF PEACE PROPOSITIONS NOW
Now, let us see. Suppose there was a riot in
Cortland, and a hundred men were engaged in the
destruction of property. You call the magistracy
together. They all come out and attempt to put
down the rebellion, and the force is inadequate,
and they call out the military power. But the ma
gistracy instruct them : " Go and put down the
riot. It is in arms against us. It is threatening
life and property, and going on with destruction.
Put it down, and at the same time when you are
putting down the riot, make it the most liberal
otters of peace." You send the officer to arrest
murderer. His hands are red with blood, but you
tell the officer, when he comes "We are opposed
to murderers, but go and attest him, and make
him the most liberal proposition of peace." That
is the argument of it. Now, I wonder if they sup
pose they can have a position on such a niche as
that'? Yes; liberal offers of peace to an army in
the field, of hundreds of thousands of men, with
their guns pointed in sight of the Capitol, destroy
ing life and property, and committing every crime,
political and moral„ that can be summed up in the
• catalogue of depravity. I might possibly consent
to drop some of their leaders a line, but there would
be a noose at the end of it. [Laughter.] lam for
just such propositions of peace as have been made
to them at Hatteras by Butler and Stringham.
Stringham is a very good name. I am quite wil
ling it should be Stringthens. [Laughter and ap
plause.] That is the only proposition that they can
understand or appreciate, and the only proposi
tion that can er ought to be made.
TII4Ir Alia Olin MOTHERS !"
Why, we must go with a great deal more lenien
cy, "because they are our brothers!" Are they?
But are they authorized to murder, and destroy
the common citadel of the family household? No !
Meet them at once. It is mucheasier to defend the
doorsill than the hearth-stone. Itia better to fight
the battle at the porch than at the altar. Settle the
question there, and let it be disposed of there.
Those men meant disunion. They have meantit for
a great number of years. They care no more
about the question of their slavery than I care for
nudity in the Fejce Mande, They hare been de
termined, and they bad rather reign in hell than
servo in heaven. If they could not govern the
whole country, they meant to govern part; and
we are told when they are engaged in this cause
less rebellion, to treat them with great leniency,
and go with the moat liberal propositions of peace
The old Revolutionary soldier that was accustomed
to walk with an espontoon, which he had carried in
the war—along staff, with a sharp instrument, like
a knife, at one end—was assailed one day by a fe
rocious dog, and bitten. Failing to drive the dog
away, he turned the sharp end of the instrument
and run him through. The owner of the dog cried
out angrily, what made you kill my dog? Because,
said the soldier, he bit me and threatened my life.
Why did you not keep him off with the other end
of your instrument? I should, said the soldier,
if the dog had OW with the other cad at me,
[Uproarious laughter.]
TREASON Olt FIDELITY MUST TRIUMPH
Now, if they had only come to us with liberal
propositions of peace we could have gone to them
in the same way; but when they come with fire and
sword and wet and threatening, there is no other
way to meet them but with corresponding weapons
and in a manner to put them down. We must
either conquer or they must. It is a question be
tween government, on the one hand, and treason
and rebellion on the other, and you may weigh it
out as many times as you will, you may pretend to
erect political
judgment
on it, but the after genera
tions and the of Heaven, will hold him
responsible who undertakes to aid this rebellion in
any shape or manner. They are entitled to
consideration ! Why ? If they had staid in
Congress they would have had the power, with
the conservatism of the North, but they meant to
avail themselves of the pretence of an opposition
President being elected and disselve this Govern
ment, and they meant to erect a military monar
chy ; for that is what they would have in their
despotism, and that is the very question We have
to deal with. Nark their whole eourBe. Trace it
from the beginning of this upas tree that has dif
fused its malaria far and near, North and South.
Examine it in all its parts, and yen will find there
is nothing in it or about it but what breathes con
tagion, and is death and destruction. Woe
be to the politician who undertakes to *-
pad the existence of the Government by
paltering in kdouble sense with this great question.
It is not a question between the North and South.
It is a question between government and rebellion.
And in the Southern States there is no pegple m9r9
loyal than a large majority of theiOnthern States
themselves when you take the revolver from their
ears and the bowie-knife from their throats. Has
Virginia yielded ? Poor old State—a portion of her
people have been bullied, dragooned, and defraud
ed into Secession, and no sooner is that done,
than she rises like the Pheenix from her ashes, and
reorganizes a Government faithful to the Union.
THE UNION MEN OF THE. SOUTH
In Missouri, did they yield ? No. General Fre
mont has been under the necessity of proelaiming
martial law to protect the citizens from pillage and
destruction. In Kentucky, do they yield ? No.
Look at the mighty majority there of 60,000.
There they met the question in the face. Look at
the speeches of Holt and Crittenden, and at -the
vote there, and see what you find. You find them
all meeting the quoin plainly. Go with me for
a single moment to Tile State of Tennessee and take
one act that is a specimen of the whole of this re
bellion. There was an old man, for we all recollect
Andrew Jackson and his glorious history, and the
great services he (lid for his country, and how he
crushed this serpent of rebellion in his day. But
in the early days of Andrew Jackson, among all
the agitations of his life, there was one found, who
never forsook him. One man, somewhat his junior
in age, a lawyer like himself, who went with him to
fight the Indians on the borders—who was with him
at New Orleans, and in subduing the Spanish in
Florida—who was with him through all trials, and
went by his side with a friendship existing between
thou like the friendship of David and Jonathan.
That individual passed on through all these con
flicts, and was finally placed on the Supreme
Bench of the State of Tennessee. Prom there he
was finally transferred to the Bench of the Su
preme Court of the United States. In the mean
time he had grown to be an aged man—twenty
years' more frost had silvered his head than has
silvered mine, yet he remained on the bench of the
Supreme Court of the United States as one of its
justices, holding his circuit according to the Con
stitution and laws in the State of Missouri—it be
came his duty to charge the Grand Jury on trea
son, and he did charge them as any lawyer will say
is hue, and when he returned to his native Tea
nessee, where he had lived, and where he had
Luried Andrew Jackson, where he had discharged
the various duties of soldier, officer, lawyer, and
judge, and where be found his aged parent on a
sick bed, almost gasping out her last life•breath, ho
was warned to resign his office or leave the State.
The old man of upwards of eighty years of age,
and who was bound to that State by so many recol
lections,
rather than terminate his life, was driven
away to fly to some city of refuge where he might find
safety. That man was John Catron, of the United
States Supreme Court. And these are the men
that they desire to be treated with liberal proposi
tions of peace ! Are they alone to blame ? No !
Those who write, and print, and circulate, and hold
conventions and peace meetings, and practice tree
con under that MUM ) firc TCR2ll§Mcf / condom
them all together, and the judgment of Heaven
will condemn them all together, and the indignant
people will cry out against them together, for it is
all the same thing.
My friend tells me there is something
to be said nbout taxes. Taxes are, at
all times, burdensouke, but they are a great
deal more burdensome without a Government
than they are with it. /t is a great deal bettor to
THE PRESS.-PHILADELPHIA, TUESDAY, OCTOBER 22, 1861.
have our property taxed a half, or even to the full
amount of all we possessed, if we can maintain our
ground, than it is to have the plowshare of ruin
driven over the whole, and take awav our property
and Government too. I tell you, my fellow-citizens,
as a man who has had some osperienea, and de
voted himself somewhat to thought on theee ques
tions, that when once you lot rebellion succeed is a
popular government, there is an end of the whole
matter; and after that show me the moat wealthy
man you have in the community, and I will show
the position of the man who lute enough power of
hand to earn his bread. You let this rebellion suc
ceed, and you will have every other kind of re
bellion down to the kind of rebellion that, if you
have a horse and a vagabond wants it, he will take
it in spite of you, and you will have no law to help
yourself. "For why—the good old plan, that he
may take who has the power, and let him keep who
can." The taxes going to be formidable? Cor
tainly ! Who is to blame ? Those who have in
augurated the rebellion, or those who are trying to
put it down ? I confess I thought we had come to
a degenerate time : that there was little life or
patriotism left, and I don't, for myself. regret this
war, for it has taught mo that there is a popylar
heart; for I see the people rise in their tnivesty
and cast aside the miserable shackles of politics,
and I would like to see a party, however strong,
strong enough to hold me on such a question. It
must not be made of secession leather, or I will
rend it as Sampson did the withes. 'Applause.]
Who objects to taxes? An individual here and
there who, not being well informed, thinks if he
can have peace it will raise the price of butter.
But he who rebels at taxes is no friend of his coun
try ; and when you see a man cry out against the
taxes to support such a war, you may believe that
Judas Iscariot is laughing in his sleeve to think he
was not living in this day, for he would have been
surely underbid. [Laughter.] No! let every man
bare his bosom to the shafts of this great battle.
Let him comprehend it in all its vastness, and see
that these men mean destruction and nothing else,
and that their eiders and abettors are no better than
than they who are engaging in it. Let this rebel
lion know that they are to have no aid from here
and they will ground their arms.
Let them think there is a party here to help
then', and they will fight forever. YOu who go for
peace go for a vigorous prosecution of the war.
Throw ten men in where there is one now, and
prosecute it with a vigor becoming to this great
people. None of us need change our former senti
ments. We san go in this, for it concerns us all.
Those tans are tlotokiiiiesd in this matter—iiiiido up
their minds to oppose their Government—there is
no use talking to, I know. " Though you bray a
fool in a mortar, yet will he not depart from his
folly"—the same of a Secessionist. I talk to those
who wish to commune together in order to exchange
ideas for the purpose of determining how to best
act. My theory is clear and plain : That you must
put down rebellion.;,and treat with fidelity. I had
a letter, a few days since, from a gentleman in
Kentucky, whom I never saw, but with whom I
have sometimes corresponded. Ile said, we wish to
know what you are going to do in the North. In
Kentucky we are prepared - to fight out rebellion
and put it down forever, but we are told that you
in the North are going to give way and put in pro
positions for peace. I wrote him back, in my opi
nion, so long as there is a loyal citizen, so long as
there is a dollar at the North, so long will this war
he prosecuted until this infernal rebellion is put
down. [Applause.] You can't change a man's
mind who won't be changed, but you may arrest
treason in its thousand walks and bring it to the
judgment of an indignant people.
This question is becoming more and more under
stood. lieu are meeting together to commune,
woman at the altar is pouring forth her gentle and
availing prayer, and children are raising their
hands against it as a monster coming to torment
them before their time.
Let us act together, and see if we can have one
occasion when we can rise above the party ques
tions of the day. As for myself, lam enlisted for
the war. I will call upon my follow•citizens far
and near to go with me in this great battle of opi
nion, and see if this country can be sustained
and this Government upheld, if these glorious stars
and stripes can float over the sea and land, through
out-the long tracks of future time, to gladden the
many millions who are to come after us. Shall
we permit this Government to be destroyed? No,
I say, never !
If we are, lot us stand up to this great occasion,
and let him who fails or falters be called a traitor.
[Loud applause.]
" These are the times that try men's souls.
The sunshine patriot and the summer soldier
will shrink from his country's cause in times like
these, but he who stands up now deserves, and
will receive, the love and thanks of every man
and woman."
