"Mr. TrcsiiU nt arl Gentlemen : I h.irdly fed
n it I hail a nelit to pe;ik In tlm assembly ; it it
a fettering of brctheren around tle (a-nlly
lir. Another reason why I onht not to make
npeeeh in, that I have none to make. It ia true
that for s vernl years I havo leeu niuking note s ;
but the spctch li not yet ready.
"I have seen Bcveral faces here which remind
me of the early scenes ot 1W11. In l-ctiruury of
that year I met a numb, r of patriotic Kho e
lalund incu in the city ol Washington, npon tiro
iuvituiiun of the (iovernor, and we put our hni.li
together to me if we could not contrive Home ImhIs
of peace. We were not as t'ortunute as peace
makers on;;ht to he. It niiRht huve been other
wise had those brethren of ours In the South
whom we expect to call brethren hereafter,
thoutih we now unfortunately are obliged to
term thun Koiicls been willing to listen to
sound reason.
"Hut I lememher one thin fctkl by tlic Rhode
Islander was they were overllowinir with devo
tion to tho I'nioii, as we all were, but their
patriotism struck mo as a little peculiar they
saiil the pcoplu In Khode Island wcro so patriotic
that no earthly helm ement could drive ttiein out
of the Union, so that it followed logically that
Itliocic Inland would he the last in it, and alio
would he oMigt d to pay the nntionil debt. It
added to the extreme aggravation of the case th.tt
they were able to pay It ; it would not have mat
tered so much If they hud not been able.
"Well, I think by the bl. sing of Ood this
Union will stand. There fs not a heart in all this
prcstnoj which docs not invoko from the Divine
lie Ing the perpetuity of this I'nlon. Differ bow
we may, we all agree in that ; and let me say to
my friends here in lthodc Island, as the Union Is
to stand, no matter what clouds may lower, the
lun w ill yit ibiue, and centennial anniversary
Iter centennial anniversary will como round,
long after the existence and permanence of this
X'n ion is established ; and allow me to say that of
course Khodo Island will not have to 'pay tliu
national debt; and let mo curnestlyadviHc th.it
the same amount, or at least a .(uurter of it, be
paid over to brown Universitv.
"While you havo been here Indulging In mu
tual confidences, you have called for a stranger
from a foreign lund to guy to you sonic words us
to the sentiments that exist on the other side of
the water, and you bave called upon a citi.eu of
Khode Island fur as a citizen of the I'uiou 1 a n
a citizen of Khode Island, to say a few words
expressive of American feeiing.
"I had the misfortune myself last fall to bo
somewhat quoted In Knglund as the author of
some expressions which were not altogether kind.
1 eald then that I thought our mother lingland
bad not been precisely just in her dealings with
ns n little less than magnanimous, a great deal
less tban kind, and that when the Alabama went
forth upon the ocenn, built in a liritisb p rt,
armed with British cannon, manned by Uiitish
soldiers,
'Freighted with enrsc. dark npnn the sea,"
1 could not help thinking, old Kngland, I should
like to get bold of your hair and give you a good
sbukinir.
"And It Is never best to disiruiso your real sen
timent. We did receive tho 1'rinco of Wales
here; we received him with a gush of genuine,
earnest American feeling. Our hearts went forth
to him as the representative of a great branch of
the Anglc-Saxon family beyoud the water. Kvery
heart in America w as thinking ot tho time when
we should he a greut people, if not under one
government, and one great people, animated by
the same Ideas, and standing before the whole
world us tbe representative of constitutional lib
erty. "That is the way wo felt when this Rebellion
broke out, and w hen men in the madness ol their
devotion to slavery sought to pull down the pil
lars of the republic, and in return for that love
and gushing emotion, w hich went forth to the
beir of the Knglisli Crown, we find cold und
averted looks, unkind and ungenerous sentiments,
taunting us in tho hour of our calamity, pirates
sent forth upon the sea, how could we leel other
wise than hostile to England we did feel sj,
and we feel so yet.
" But we hope for better days. We hope the
time will come when Knglund will sea that she
consults neii her her true interests nor her true
honor in uiifruternul sentiments towards Auicric i.
And we rejoice that thero uro some men on the
other side ot the Atlantic who dare to speak ia
rebuke of iinfruternal sentiments.
"Among those, who havo tints spoken, those
upon whom we rely for returning amity and
sentiments of Cuistiiin ami fraternal love, is the
honored man who has spoken to-day. la your
name, in the name of my own fellow-ritiens ot
the great city beyond the Allenhenies, in tho
name of all tho loyul men of America, I thank
him.
"Among the other names is the name of the
man to whose letter be referred, John liright. Ho
knows we hate war as much as he does; we do
not make war because wo love it, but because wo
love peace. Wo long for the return of peace. Wo
go Into the war because wo must, if we would
rescue this hope of mankind. Tho same senti
ments I have heard from their great colleague,
the great Kiebnrd Cobden, a trinity of mimes for
the honor of our country. Let them be assured
that we appreciate them.
"There is another class of men that we do ap
preciate, whose t.'ice has been heard in our favor,
uie jutncusnire workmen, who cannot be per
suaded into infidelity to freedom by tho aristoc
racy of England. (Jod bless tho workiugmeu of

W'AsiiiNOTojf, September 9, 11-30 P. M. It Is
rumored here to-night that Mobile has fallen.
Tbe news is said to have been received from
ltebel deserters, who assert that Dog river ar
as pasted by the ent ire fleet of Admiral l'arragut,
and that, after a brief shelling, tho aity sur
rendered, the troops having withdrawn into the
interior. This statement may be correct.
It Is well known that Admiral Farrugut's ap
pliances for removing the obstructions in the
chanuel of Dog river bar were ample, and that
the torpedoes could be removed with the greatest
facility. Then the channel would be perfectly
cleared and an uninterrupted passage given the
licet close up to the city.
That Mobile has surrendered without a defense
Is scarcely probable, though by no means Impos
sible, as resistance would only Involve loss of life
and property, without twy adeiiuate advantage.

The columns of this paper bear witness that we
have labored to harmonize the Democratic party.
Whatever concession we could mako that did not
involve a sacrifice of the immutable principle to
which this journal Is dedicated, w e have granted.
Our most fervent desire was to sec consummated
the unity and concord of the Democracy in this
Presidential campaign. Itelicving that the life
of Kepiiblieanism depended upon this Issue, wo
mudo every etlort to conciliate the conflicting
sentiments that were arrayed in opposition to the
present Administration; for we believed that the
defeat ol Mr. Lincoln would rcnwve tho chief
obstacle to pcaco.
Itut, above all the claims of expediency, the
principle to which we uro Irrevocably 'hound
(was absolutely, and demands our li.ieluy
beyond nil other considerations. We have mi
lured and strengthened tho peace sentiment from
its genu. Wc have been fuithtiil to il throughout
the ordeal it has passed, an ordeal tint it could
not havo survivul if within its o u essence it had
not possessed the elements of eternal life, tho
truth that may be hidden but not destroyed.
To that principle that is the guide of our politi
cal action throughout this crisis, and that com
mands the journal we have devoted to its intcrcs-s,
we are linked by a bond t tint cunnot be loosened.
As wc b:oo.I by it steadfastly when to do so was
to coiitt persecution and to invite Mpprcssion, wc
shall surely not desert it now, in the day of its
strength, when, in fact, it rules tho political
situation.
The suffrages of tho peace men ore essential to
thetiiumph of the Democracy; but the peace
men cannot give their suiting, s In violation of
thiir principles. To bo true, therefore, to the
Democracy, we must insist that its principle be
horn stly represented in this canvass ami fairly
put at issue al the polls.
We welcomed, in the platform presented by
the Chicago Convention to he Democracy, the
proposiii.m for an immediate eesirt iin of hostili
ties and a Coiiventiun of all the Mates. To cease
lighting an. I to upKul to reason unu calm discus
sion ol the questions in dispute; tint is precisely
the plan of action that wo have udvoc.ited from
the comment ement of hostilities.
It is fair to Mipi.ose that the Sovereign States,
soUmnly ns-ciublcd in Convention, would exer
cise such judgment and conciliatory attributes as
are duo to the spirit of enlightenment mid Chris
tianity, and would use their best endeavors to
free our political system from us imperfections,
that it might accord, so tar us possible, with the
u.tercftts of all, and be i llcnsive to none.
The Chicago l'latlorm promises with its
triumph mi immediate ce.-satiou ol 'hostilities, and
advocates a plan of reconciliation that every
peace man can conscientiously indorse. Wo a
eipted it, and with it, the candidates nominated
upon the platform.

Is the body. The one may chuugo, decay, perish,
ti e other is immutable and eternal, for it is prin

relative positions, for if tho man renounce the
principle, he ceased to be a candidate of the party
that nominated him.
George II. MeClellan was nominated upon a
platform that promises an immediate cessation
of hostilities and a Convention of all the St itcs.

Here Is nn account of an entertainment which
few readirs could havo witnessed : "1'he olliccrs
of tlic Twentieth Regiment l'unjaiih lulautry en
tertained their guests lust Saturday night with
tm exhibition of the sword dances of the warlike
tribes serving in the regiment. The performances
began with ihe war dance of the I'athaua. Tho
pipers and drummers, genuine Tallinn musicians,
supplied tho weiid and monotonous music, to
which the dancers kept time with their paces,
movements, and the brandishing of their tulwars.
'The dance was a series of studied uttitudes, timed
steps and advances, accompanied with various
drawing-cuts and rapid brandishing of the tulwar
overhead. The movements wero continued in a
circle around the group of musicians. The rapid
w hirlings of the tulwars, and the swift and telling
cuts which the dancers laid about them, naturally
rnsed a dread in the minds of the spectators that
the dancers would injure themselves or tucir
tiighbor.
Hut nothing could exceed tho extraordinary
tact with which Ihe dancers, when they up
proaehed each other, guided their tulwars, with
out reducing the velocity or tbe variety of their
flourishes. T he I'mbaus were succeeded by tbe
run.iaul.ee Mussclumns, whoso displuy was less
warlike, but more skilful. Two tall aud lithe men
engaged in single combat apparently, advancing
and retreating, aud w hirling their tulwars with
surprising rapidity over their heads and shoul
ders and under their ai ins, exhibiting niuch power
and pliability of wrist and shoulder. One of the
men subsequently performed a series of singular
und (.rotes. uo feats with the tulwar. Forming
an inch of his body with one hand aud one foot
on the eroond. and the faco unuermoht. and nro.
belling himself round in a ciiclo with the otucrT
loot, hu executed a variety of the most astonish,
ingly rapid flourishes with bis tulwar, to the
imminent risk of bis nose and eurs. Standing
erect on one foot, and closing his eves, he whirled
bis body round rapidly, and, while so engaged,
sheathed and unsheathed his tulwar in a vanoty
of i-osilions, before him, upon his forehead, upon
bis head, and behind his back. A number of
men then engaged in a round dance with tulwars,
similar to the dance of the Tnlhans. Tho next
performance was a more peaceful dauco, with
tbields, but without tulwars. The dancers hopped
and skipped around the pipers, keeping time
with tho music, aud noting the conclusion of
each bar by simultaneously stooping down and
striking their shields on tho ground. The Dogras
a less warlike tribe, inhabiting the territory oi
the Maharajah of Cashmere, concluded the exlii
bition with a fencing match with short sticks.
T he combatants had each two sticks, which they
used together, employing both bauds in perform
ing the same movements with both sticks. Keep,
ing time wilh tbe music, they executed with
great dexturity and precision a variety of blows
and guards, advances and retreats, and other

RIOT IN SOUTH CAMDEN.
Conflict Betwoen Blacks and Whites.
A FREE FIGHT GENERALLY.
T W O 31 U IN H II O T .
Ijist evening, between eight and nine o'clock,
a riot occurred in South Camden, which, for the
time being, was of n most formidable character,
and which threatened to terminate In a serious
loss of life. The facts, as near as wo can ascer
tain, arc ns follows
At about a ipuirtcr after H o'clock a colored
woman who was engaged In selling lulled corn,
or "hot corn" as it is generally denomi
nated, was approached, at Third and .Spruce
slreets, by awhlto man, whose name we were
unable lo ascertain, who pur. lowed an ear or two
of tho edible, and alter taking a nibble of the
eoni, made tome remarks detrimental to tho
quality of the article, and furthermore evinced
bis displeasure by kicking over tlic bucket, scat
tering its contents upon the pavement. This,
us may be surmised, fearfully riled the c pia
niiiilty of Aunt Dinah, who Immediately struck
at the man, and thcu move. I oil' post hasie to ac
quaint her friends with tho outrage which hud
been perpetrated upon her.
In a few minutes there was a large gathering of
colored folks, one of whom perceiving tho fellow
who had made the attack, engaged hint in a
tight. 1 hen commenced the rumpus. The blacks
tumid out by scores men, women, aud chil
dren sonic four colored sailors, belonging totho
frigate J'riwetoii, who wcro in the vicinity at the
lime, hastened to tbe rescue of their brethren ;
anil as by this hour u number of white persons
had husteuid to the scene, the light became
ginoul.
Those "bloods" of Camden, who had been wit
nesses of the cricket mutch, which has been going
on lor some days past in Camden, supposing tho
light to be a free ono, also presented themselves
upon the ground, and some of them being pretty
well filled wilh the ardent, "went in," regardless
of consequences.
I'y this time a number of policemen arrived at
the fcene of conflict, llncks and paving stones
weie flying ill all directions, and towards !)
o'clock, a pistol or gunshot being hear. I, tho light
became quite intense in its character. A mimhor
of the blacks had barricaded themselves in their
l ouses, und from the loopholes of windows and
from tho roof-tops bricks descended iiuite plenti
fully. Information of tho extent of the riot being
romiyed to bis Honor the Mayor, Paul C. Iludd,
! to., that gentleman, together with the Marshal
of l'oiice, John W. Campbell, and a posso ot
policemen, instantly repaired to the neighbor
hood of T hird anu Spru. o stioets.
The Mayor, making his way through the dense
crowd, now augmented to some four hundred
persons, whites and blacks, demanded a cessation
of hostilities. His Honor also presented himself
at the door of one of the tenements from which
bricks were being thrown, and applied for admis
sion. This was at first refused; but the occu
pants, on being assured that no harm would ho
done ibein, opi ned the door, and some arrests
wero made. Other bouses were visited in like
manner by tbo police, aud several other arrests
were made.
Still the fight In the streets continued, being
"running" in its character, however, and confined
to the block between Second street and tho Dela
ware river. To make the matter still worse the
fire bell of the States Kngine, Cuiudon, com
menced to sound a general alarm, and this, of
course, served to increase the excitement. T he
nifjit was durk, and it was impossible for the
police to ascertain who were the ringleaders in tho
ailuir, or w ho were contributing tow ards prolong
ing it.
T'owurds 10 o'clock, however, tho Mayor,
assisted by the police, got tbe rioters at bay, and
the light was discontinued. Occasionally a brick
or paving stone would whi,7, over the beads of
the crowd, or tbo crash of a broken window pane
would rise above the tumult of the mob. lly li ilf
past 10 o'clock the last brick bad been "throw
ed" the crowd had been partially dispersed, and
the lictcrs were marched off to tbe station bouse.
Nine persons were arrested, two of whom, uro
whiles. One of tlic rioters Is A young mulatto
wr man named KlUabeth Mitchell. This woman
struck otlicer Charles Gilbert ovor tbe head with
a porter bottle, inllictlng quite an ugly looking
wound. Otlicer Win. 11. Hawkins was also badly
hurt about the head by a brick thrown by one of
Ihe rioters. The names of the rioters arrested
are as follows : Wm. Hamilton, James Simpson,
Joseph (iibbs, l'liilip Uibhs, John Williams,
llemy Oruy, John Laws, Kli.nbeth Mitchell,
Juckson l'rico (white), aud Kichard Fellows, a
White boy.
A young man by the name of Humphreys was
shot In tl.e wrist, and two negroes are also re
ported to have been wounded.
Tho negro, John Laws, when the police entered
one of the houses, jumped from the roof of one
bouse to that of another, occupied by a man
named Thomas. The transfer being accomplished
by a flight a la Uaret, through an open window,
lie was subsequently captured under a bed, lu
this house, whore lie bad secreted himself.
In one bouse an axe was found under the table,
on the first floor, iu a second a quantity of am
munition, while bricks and paving stones wero
discovered iu almost all the houses occupied by
the negroes.
The block of houses on Spruce street, between
Second and Third, are almost entirely occupied
by colored ihtsoiis. The occupants bear the re
putation of lieing very peaceable in their dispn.
silion, and it is supposed tbat nothing hut the
prevalent opinion among the blacks that a gene
ral attack was being made upon them, would have
occasioned such an exbibilion.
It is also slated (hut one of the colored sailors
of tho J'rineeton was the person who made tho
attack upon tho colored woman, and that lu the
confusion the whites were supposed to be the ag
gressors. Mayor lludd informed us this morniug
that at one time tbe riot assumed a most sei ious
character, and it was feared that great bloodshed
would ensue.
Much credit is due to the Mayor and bis offi
cers for the energy they displayed iu quelling the
riot. There is a rumor about that the last night's
proceedings will be re-enacted to-night, but
evcrv preparation baa been made by tho Mayor
and 'the Marshal of the 1'ollco to prevent such
an occurrence.
Tbo rioters will havo shearing this afternoon,
at two o'clock, at tho Mayor's oillce.
