    Speech of Hon. W". D. Kelley.
The lion. W. D. Kelley, of this aiSndelivered a
speech in the House of ItsprosentatitirePon Friday
last, which has attracted a great deal of attention.
As our space prevents us from reprinting it in full,
we republish some extracts.
A POLICY WANTED
The Administration would, in my judgment, do
well to announce a policy, clear, well defined, and
thorough, which should address itself to the sup
pression of the rebellion and the punishment of
those who aro participating in it. Such a course
would reanimate the public mind and heart; it
would irspire with invincible enthusiasm onr army,
now diminishing by desertion, disease, and death,
and deteriorating from long-continued inaction; it
would invigorate the publla credit; the people
would again pour out their money with confidence
that it would bo applied to the preservation of that
portion of their property which might remain in
their possession.
. .
Changes have been rung on the words fanatic
and conservativoj and the idea has been eingigested
that there is such a thing in the world as a dema
gogue, and that possibly one may have crept upon
this floor. bir, the words fanaticism and conserva
tism are much abused Lof the demagogue nothing
too vile can be said. Fanaticism is zeal—an en
thusiasm in the cause. The fanatic is frank and
honest as he is earnest. Fanaticism swells the rolls
of heroes and martyrs. The despised fanatic of to
day is often the adored idol of the future. With
the fanatic the demagogue cannot be compared;
they can only be contrasted. Tho business of the
demagogue is deception. Artifice, trick, and chi
cane are his means. His ways are devious and tor
tuous, and you track him by the slime he deposits
as he crawls. A fanatic may bless mankind; but
a demagogue is an evil here and everywhere. Of
the Apostles. eleven were designated by the people
of their time as fanatics—the twelfth was a dente
gogue. He spoke fair words and kissed, and in
creased. his estate by thirty pieces of silver—tho
price of Him he kissed.
711 P. POSITION OF TIM PRESIDENT
It may be that we have fanatics and demagogues
amongst us; but the President belongs to neither
class. He is a conservative man, alike loyal to the
love of liberty, with which he is so plenteously im
bued, and his duty to the Constitution which he
has sworn to preserve, protect, and defend. He is
a conservative man, not in the sense in which that
word is used on the other side of the House—not a
Man who came into the World one generation too
late ; whose vision is from the back of his head ;
who goes through the world as the oarsman does
his voyage. looking ever at the land he has passed,
never at that which he is passing, or the point
toward which he is moving; so timid that he
dreads a crisis that would jolt him out of the
ruts of routine, and throw him upon his dis
cretion, as the mariner upon a lee shore dreads the
gales of March and November; whose more gene
rous instincts lie undeveloped, or are blunted or
perverted ; who mistakes the sobs of the prison
house and the groans of the middle passage for
the sweet voices of the angelic throng who hymn
the beatitudes around the throne. Abraham Lin
coln, sir, is a truly conservative man, invested
with the power to preserve, and ho will preserve,
the Constitution and the integrity of our country,
although the army called into being by his words
crush out every iniquity which that instrument
tolerates under its broad provisions. Ile will not
permit the Constitution, laws, ordinances, or in
stitutions of any State to stand in the way of the
reestablishment of the supremacy, entire and per
fect. of the Constitution of the United States over
all its territory.
PENNSYLVANIANS AND KENTUCKY
Sir, the people of the North do not want to throw
Kentucky off. The thousands of Pennsylvanians
who are there in arms are not there to drive her
out of the Union, but to keep her in : and, under
the power of God and the Constitution, they and
the men of the North will keep her in, and in this
patriotic work they will, I believe, have, as they
have now, the power of Kentucky to aid them.
She has no disposition toga ; and the time has gone
past for threatening, in her name, to appeal to any
other arbiter than the Supreme Court of the United
States to decide upon the constitutionality, or vali
dity, or perpetuity of en act of Congress approved
by the President.
CONFISCATION AND SMANCIPATION
Sir, who on this floor has intimated that this war
should be converted into a war of emancipation ?
Who on this floor has suggested any other object
for it than the crushing out of this rebellion ? Men
have differed as to the means of crushing it out ;
but no man, not @VMS a y felend from Illinois, f
Lovejoy,' about whom so much is often said, has
suggested any other object for this war than the
crushing out of rebellion. We have all said, as the
•Pt esident understands, that the way to do it is to
deprive the enemy of their resources, and to
bring—as the commanders of the army and fleet
at Port Royal have done—the services of every loyal
man to the standard of his country, although his
skin should not be colored like our own. My col
leage misrepresented grossly the majority on this
floor when, by inuendo or assertion, he sent to the
country the impression that we are endeavoring to
convert the war into a war for emancipation. He
said
"Gentlemen have gone so far—l do not stop to in
quire whether or not they are in this Honse—npon this
question of negro slavery, that if the question were put
to them, whom will you have delivered to you to.day
they would say, .Barabas,' the negro ; crucify the white
man."
That is the suggestion of an impious fancy used
far the slander of A body bf listiotablo men. No
man on this floor has uttered a sentence from which
such an inference could be drawn. But, sir, after
all this, what becomes of the gentleman's theory?
Why, sir, under the probing of half a,dozen gen
tlemen, it leaks out reluctantly that ho, too, is in
favor of confiscating the property of rebels. Ido
not know whether there was joy in heaven over the
conversion of that sinner; but I know that a thrill
of delight went through this House at finding the
gentleman ready to come squarely and steadily
into the support of what the President has been
doing, and in support of the view which seems to
control a majority of this House.
AFRICANIZATION AND AMERICANIZATION
Sir, brief time is left me, and I hasten to the point
of the Africanization of American society and
American labor. I have said that we are not the
advocates of reopening slave trade; that we are
not the advocates of extending the colored institu-
tion through the whole free Territories of the coun
try ; that we are in favor of opening means by
which colored men eau leave our country and find
a happier home. Sir, Nature works by invaria
ble laws. It is by no freak of Nature that the
light of day paints the likeness of our loved
ones. It is by no such freak that the wire bears
the message of joy or woe over land or under wa
ter. Ile who traverses our continent finds on
the Pacific slope of the Rocky mountains the
grandest arboriferous vegetation of the world,
On the eastern slope, divided by a narrow strip,
which produces its effects on the clouds, you lose
all arboriferous ve,getation. You find only the red
sage ; yen find nothing larger growing there. The
same skies are over; the same God watches; but
He watches through the same wise laws, and
teeches wen to look to - him through Nature for
guidance. On the Pacific slope the earth is re
freshed by ninety inches of rain each year, while
on the east but five fall. The negro is the crea
ture of the tropics. Submit him to the guidance
of his own instincts and volition, and he will find
his way to the tropics, or lands lying near them.
The cruelest monument of "man's inhumanity to
man " that I can point to to-day is that negro
colony of fifty thousand American negroes living
in the cold wilds of Canada. As well might you
expect the tree of the Pacific slope to thrive in the
region of the sage, or the sage to thrive under its
broad shadow, and with ninety inches of rain fall
ing in the year. The negroea will wilt, and dwin
dle. and die prematurely there.
We know, the gentleman knows, and those with
whom he votes—who give kind words and hard
blows to the Administration—know that it and its
real friends on this floor are in favor of the reeog
nition.of the republic of Liberia, of giving to Hayti
commercial relations, of procuring within our own
tropics lands where the negro, made free by the
crimes of his master, may go and dwell as Nature
intended him to. This the President recommends,
and all this the majority on this floor intend to con
summate_ We are for giving the Saxon, the Celt
—the Caucasian family—that portion of this conti
nent which was intended for them. They who
misrepresent us are for infusing black. blood into
the veins of the country. Sir, this opens a wide
field for discussion. I care not now to enter into
it. The hammer will soon fall.
The President whom we support honestly, con
servatively, or fanatically, but whom we support,
recommends us to pursue what has long been the
object of those with whom ho has labored politically
for years. I would allude to Liberia at the present
time only far enough to show that it refutes the
theory of the gentleman from Kentucky (Slr.
Wadsworth), that the negro's only idea of freedom
is relief from labor. There, upon the western mat
of Africa, where the white man cannot live, we
have sent ten thousand freed bondmen, or the de
scendants of such. And what have they done ?
Performed a miracle. They have created cities,
towns, schools, universities, and churches. They
have assimilated, christianized, and civilized those
ten thousand freed, poor, illiterate bondmen, and
have civilized and christianized two hundred thou
sand heathen semi•barbarians.

Union, and claims that the burden of loyal men should
be lightened, as far us po_meittle, by confiscating, to the
largest extent, the ProPerty of all Minuet:liquids i and
