A 'tcr the flattering enthusiasm that followed h's Introduction oad suosidod, Ucv. Houry Ward lit echo.- spoko mutant ally as fol.ows: For elevon months not a irun has heon fiiod In tlio who e southern States in war. so oorouietev has ro l.oliioii been des royed. It ia the marvel of foreign spcc.a'ors. andinav well ho. Our own loars pro. iiostirated a long-continued wars but since iast May tin re ha been no conflict in that way, and were it not lor 'lie blacks, so perfectly nave tlunm cliaoircd Within tlio year, there could ho scarcely the shadow ot a rrasou wliv all the lately receded States aliouid not be represented in Congress today. There is no j.ist reason why, in so tar as the wliolo peoilo of tho South are conceit cd, and their rotations and toi ling to the Government, they should not be ineludod lu their lopresentntion in C'onirrosa, Jt Is Jiift and right, also, that those frocdmen shon'd be effectually guaranteed in their liberty's, belore tho country dismisses this question from the people andauoptsa systom of reiroscntation tor them in tho hubs ol Congress. This should be clono lor the sake ol hnmanity, and.bccause, also, ol this-that I'rovlueiico has put the lulure regeneration ol tho bout a and tho North upon this question. 1c is just, on boih accounts, that we souid insist on a settle ment ol the condition of tho lilac man that he should have his liberty lor that which works tor the lowest class in the community works for every clans. II you secure justice tor the middle cla-sos it wnst not be but you beuclit ad clashes. liut m the nature of things you cannot adopt a principle and a policy which shall rise op to em power tlio bottom ot society that shall not carry up with them every rank and degree in society. When, therefore, we demand that there t-hall be a liberty and a citizenship ;or tho least and the lowtst, it is in cflect a plea, not tor the bottom, but lor the wholo of society which stands upon its lunndations. Allow me, then, to consider the substance ot that liberty which our amended Constitution has (riven to all those who were in bondaire. Tnat liberty is not to be meiely a name; it is a tacred ark with contents. It is a matter ot importance that we should soe to it that we have not something bettor than a title a name. Aud when we look at tho contents of libarty we are not to take a loreien manliest; they soloct and pack the contents of their woid liberty dim-rent in Franco from what we do in America. We de mand that liberty hero shall be American liberty. It is to contain rights Of posou, rights of labor, lights of property, rights of civil life, rights ot su fire go. When our amended Constitution (rave to the black man liberty, it declared that he was erected into manhood out ot chattelhood; he was conveyed from tho condition of a beast into toe condition of a man, and that must bo secured to him, and all that which belomrs to the man In the social economy of libnrty, taut which makes love a mi u later in? angel of God, and parentage aud the lamilt 'ion's bst church upon eaith that mut met in him. His rights of person are to enable hitn to stand lor tho llrst tiino inhislilo and say to the one bes. beloved, "I'hou ait mine and I am thine;" ior all their lite long lour millions of men had no power of love thus to declare, lor between heart and heart lorever hovered tho uark shadow ot one tnat owned both, and every body tree to own tho other. is there any scene on earth that is moro trans cendent than that which ouo soes by the crad o sido when tne mother reads stange prophesies in the face of the child und says, ' It is mine; it is his; it is ours." And yet in alt this generation there havo been millions ol mother sitting by tne sloe ot their cradle with bitter panes to think that they must rear the daughter to feel "Mother Is not mine; thore is one that is greater than sho; and father is not mine; master is higher than lather." When liborty came lor the first time, the mother could say to her daughter, "Obey me as God, as in his place and none othor, lor molheris now moro than mistress, and lather is more than master throughout tho South." The next element that must be in liberty, if it is to bo American liberty, is the rights ol labor. What aro the rights of tree labor f Tod ye me what they are and 1 will echo them back, and say what they arc to you hero that aro they to bo m Georgia, in Alabama, in Florida everywhere We hear much of the rights ot iator and the necessities of labor. 'Whatever Juboreisin the North claim as a put of their riphts as freemen, that I demand lor tne Muck men of tho ISoutn, To woik or not to work ts tho right ol men North; to work or not to work is tho nkht of the men or the South. If you say these men must bo burdonsomo to society, 1 reply, "Wait till they are before you meddle with them " It is Lot considered a necessity lor a man 'o work ii he has money to support himself; and ii a man can Hud lood iu roots as squirrels do, a thougti it may not bo be.-t lor him, yet he i to bo , tho Judge, and not me nor you. I demand that vi oik shad as tree to tne black man thero as to tho white man hero. You may work as you please, for whom you please, as long as you pleaso, aud lor as much or as little as you please. 1 should like to soe the audacious man that hoped to live in public lilo that should dure to i ut reduce a bill into the Lexis a ture that a man should work for one year lor uny one ioundry, or ior one man at a stipulated pr.co agreed upon by another, it is a mockery to say that those workmen of tho South are free if their labor is litt free. llut it Is replied "They will not work, thoy most be btought to liberty of work gradually." Who says they won't work? Not they who are bost ac quainted with tboui. I say that the mon who know the least about the negroes aie the Southerners. We have had abundant evidence that they iivod so niar to them that ihey could not see thorn. We know that opln'ons in the North have been subitum iully correct, for we based our opinions on our know ledge of human nature at large, whereas thoy wore perpetuully in comuierce with black men in the ad ministration ol a system that misinterpreted human nature and contravened God's great lawsjoonso- quently they were continually administering Gov ernment on wrong principles. It was said that the black man was cruel. Oh. v. hat oratory have I hoard what streams ef blood have run down platforms in Domocratio speeches tor the last twenty years 1 We Lave gone through a war that baa tried men's manhood. l'rotosor Wolcomb told me that within the sound of a horn were four thousand able bodied slaves and not twenty able-bodiea white men in that region, and the slaves knew it; yet neither you, nor I, nor any man can point to an instance in which, during th s territio fctrueg.e, tuero was one single case of insurrection, or violenoe, or un tem pered Judgment. There has been none; tbey have conducted themselves with a forbearance and with a prudence that I think scarce. y loss than a divine inspiration in this much sudoring people. But they were declared to be less than mon, uuht for liberty, cowards: and we were lauirtstd to scorn when we firouosed to make soldiers of them. Not those men hat ever received a chariro Imm tlinm attnr thnv were in battle will again deny the courage ot the . Diac man. Again; they say thev won't woik. Well, the won't if they can helu it. That is the best thing ever knew ol them.

When a lad, though not cruel, I was sometimes heedless and thoughtless. I recollect on one occasion to have taken an Inno- cent fly and pu'led off one wing, another wmg, one l, annthar loir, another, another, another, aud another, and I laid him down on the table aud wou tiered he did sot go. Here are these black men ; we pnll tiff their wing and their lees, and then say, 'The lay nigger won't work." Hot experience U that ther will work i in laot thoy do work for wae. It is the concurrent testimony of impartial men in tne bou'o mat, ior wanes tr working better than belore they worked under tae lash. I call the attention ol tnose wuo are aispu-uu to be despondent to this extraordinary fact that iac the hwt Uirutiuaj holidays the tela ludustr i st stem of the Month has practically and really nn- tlerfcoi o a revolution, now that tho whole ahlo todltd force o I the laboring men of tho Mouth are tiei sloimed liom inlotcefl laborers Into puidwoik men, and are working to-fUy for wagos This nn jcfsllle thing- this mountain of diflicnlty ha all teen moved out of the way so qmotly, that we erarcely think what has taktn place as sl.ently as the l.llu slips into the day, and men heai no friction, ai (I fe el no Jnr; so these men have come out frotnjhe s ide of no aid anil uiiwlllinglabcrers intoithe condi lion of paid laborers lor wages, and aro doing their duty laithlully. 1 affirm as a part of thi bill of III) rty that they tire to liavo ii"li;s of property ; Ju?t to samo ri-nt to eain it ttint. you have; Just tho same man-orof owning it that ou have: just tho ranic power of toiivevmg it that vou have; Just the snme power to PMi,eaii it that vou nave, i ne aro to oe raisoa op into all the t.ghts and immunises of property as they exst according to the law ot tho laud in the mtsi lavou tl clashes ot the land, men iney aro to have like he lhrir civil riphls onao iminal law not. a coop lor blocks and a codo for wmtes.

J hen. last.v, thoy are to have the right ot suffrage not merely localise it is best to give it, btitsutlrago is the loRieul 1 1 quel ce of emancipation. There are two doctrines ot stiflrage: ouo, tnat it is a boon or ticrogative conferred by society. That is the old monarchical tieclriiie whittled down small, it ia an essential etinent in monarchy yet. There is butouo other ground that is, that suffrage belongs to man hood, and that every man that Is born ts born to suf frage, and no to eutierlng alono. I claim suffrage loi the black man rimplv because be is a man, and tn that ground only 1 ciaim it tor every man ; not as a boon given to bun. mara you, but as an inherent riput ; b cauo wo have tai n the doctrine that every men ha a natural ngnt to liberty. Now, in our age, in our country, and under our institutions, it is im possible ior a man to have liberty nnless he has ail that is iudispetsablo to liberty, by which it is secured and ot erated. II a man says I have a right to my ear, then I nave a neht to the pulsations of the atmosphere, without w Inch th rat is nothing. It 1 havo a natural right to my eve, then 1 have a na ural right to tnat with out w tilth im eyo would be ot no account, a. natu ral rif;ht owns Its itisti umeuts; and whou you say a man has a right to lm liberty, under our Govern uk nt, in our nation atu in this uro of the world, ho has with that Mitural ilpht, aid as a part of it, a rivbt to all those instruments ti nt arc indispensable to the acquiring and executing ot it. Now, it there be one thing that elands plainer than another, it stems to ne thut it is that a man n a a right to a voice In the policies, in tne laws, in the legislation that is to determine his character, his place, his lamily, his Condition, Ids reputation, and his pro- pcity. lt Is monstrous to say that a man is tree when every thing that is dearest to him may oe legis lated and managed by others, ho hnviu no voice and no influence in it 1 am, tl eretore, not only lor impaitial sull'ragc that is better than nothing, but it is not the tiuu c,rtuna but I am for universal sufflspe. Air. ll ccher adverted to tho necessity of allowing foreigners to vote, and was content to leavo the question of women vyting to women. Ho thou con tinued : lb s then. Is what I understand to be this full bill ot right", guaranteed now by tho proclamation of the people ot the United States through their late martyred l'resident, and folomnlv ratified in the amendment to the Constitution of tho United States, which ib ouo ot tho great events ot the a ay in which we dye. Ihe question will naturally arise in your minds, how shall these rights do secured? First, by constituilonal amendments. Our most excellent l'resident has fears lest we should make too many amendments in that immortal nstrumont, the Con stitution ot the United States. 1 am not afraid of too much, but of too often. Jt is not dangerous when you bopiu to amend it that you should amend it in every point in ffhich it is deficient or weak. 1 he' Constitution may bo coniparod to a patient lying upon a surgeon's table, who tiuds it needful io open him in the visceral region to extract ailing j arts or to inluse medicinal qualities; but when ho is ot en do all you want to do lor his liletime. Don't put him there every ear. And now that tho Con stitution oi tho United States is undergoing a surgi cal operation, aon't let us have to cut again in your lifetime, nor in our children's liietiine, J here is one simple priocip e that I think will moot tne accept ance, upon tho statement, oi every man whatever was put luto the Constitution of the United States ior tne saao oi slavery must como out oi a now mat God has exorcised slavery. 1 h Constitution ought to be amended, first, as It has been, dec aring liberty to be tho law of this aneL Wo ought, then, as a necessary loeical seqfTeiice, to ameud the basis of representation, winch was notoriously made on account of slavery, and is di Here nt and unequu) in tho North and in tho South. And since citizensui n is ono and tho samo where liberty is universal, the declaration oi ono citizenship without regard to nationality, without regard to cla-s or complexion, should I e a compo nent art ot the Constitution of tho United States. These rights arc, first, then, to bo guarauteed by amending tho organio law ol tho laud; secondly, we are to guarantee these rights to every man by elll cie nt letiisiation. A part of that has taken pluce. Other parts ot ncouiul legislation are now under consideration ot tho Supreme Court ot the land. il teo rights are to bo secured, thudly, by the great laws ol self intorost, and 1 conless 1 look to tho great natural laws of God in human atlairs chiefly, hot that thero is no work for leg elation; no woik lor voluntary Christian charity and munifi cence; but thut, as man is made, the great laws of political economy, the great law of labor-supply and demand that works unconsciously, makes mou woik wi.lingly, and teaches them Justice through the porias of selfishness; theso laws, 1 think, are imiv to coii pose the diuicuities between masters and iheir late tervauts faster than almost anything else. Ihe South cannot resuscitate without cotton. They cannot havo cotton without negroes. They cannot have i,egroes without treating them justly. 1 would give more lor two good cotton crops raised by tho Ireedmcn than for live Congresses, tbougo I highly respect Congresses. You are to remembor thut negro labor baa greatly diminished, unfortu nately in ail by death. We have no statistical ricoid, but 1 have a strong impression from. reports made to me that in another year it will bo louud that moro tluiu a iourtb part of this active laboring toice oi tne late slaves has been destroyed. Because the planter don't make a great deal of money, bad for the Siato, bad ior tho community, gtou ior a Bniau ciacs. oiuvery ana coitou maao a tew men enormously rich beyond all estimate in the South ; but it made several persons lower in civiliza tion, in religion, iu political economy, and in actual money; but now, on the overthrow of slavory, theso tew growers ol cotton, who belore wore raising two hunured or three hundred bales, would raise five hundred. 1 here is a largo class in the community who are tor n eking use of blacx labor. The owner's son will bo Been working la the field with the Uuck man, as 1 was brought up in tho Hold with tno black man. lt is not despicable lor a white free-born, boy to w ork wnh a black boy. The time is coming when with cotton raising black labor wiil go up, and per sons w ho had been giving twelve dollars, w ill then give twenty dollars, and some will piobably give twenty-live dollars. Kvory year cotton .wilt go up. lt is too previous not to be raised. Next year men will make as much mouoy in raising cotton as in dig ging for on or gold. It is extraoidinary to see what a civilizing influence is effected by tho pocket. It we got these men out of fcgypt into Palestine, only one-lourth of luem, we will show a moral pro blem solved, alter (our thousand years, that in the early period ot tho world they did not dream ot. For myself, if you show the black man, broken down bore aud there, 1 shall not be prepared to say on that account that emancipation . is a failure If one-half of the black race ten years hence stand firm and strong on the broad platform ot liberty, and begin at that recuperate I shall consider the price paid for liberty baa been cheap. Itisaneasy thing to be born ; but when a whole people is born again, and emerges out ol bonaage into the blessings ot liferty, you may expect pains aud sutferina. It is better that om-hnlf of the people be assured of liberty forevermore lor themselves and their poste rity aye, better than H at lor one-fourth the tiino the same number lived grovelling in bondage, i I do not speak as a conservative, or as a radical, but as one citizen beiore bis lollow-oit aens, to tive my views ior your consideration, and for which no one is responsible but myself 1 have repeatedly spoken upon this quortion as it relates to the black. Let me now consioor the question ot the Slate aud condition of the South. 1 bold the se ceded States that tbey be reinstated as soon as possible, and as soon as may be consistent with the cubho interests. True, some relay is noo sary, liut tiis doiay, though necessary, U an evil notwithstanding a ueoessary evil it may be, but yet an evil. Quickness aud promptness are the things to be regarded, and delay a thing to be deprecated. It might not be right to do it to-day: it might not be best to do it to-morrow; it might not be best to do it this week, or the next, but the necessity ot delay is as much au evil notwithstanding. Whoa a man is sick the pin sician sa s it is necessary that the lover oe subdued, but it may not be right to break It down i uuee, out let it run, but tue very necessity oi ut mg it run en it au tvil. I hole) tli at It would be better that th State i ihould bo brought imo tho Union to-morrow, every oiieoitltemi And in this retard allow me (0 say that 1 cntiot go with eiher the 1'roaident or Con- frrss. 1 would bilng all in at once; thev moan to eep them all out at oneo. Thev would let in a part, and let tlio rest wait and see how thev woti'd hko It. I know they aie stumbling on this point If you let in Tennessee on that principle you wiil havo to lot in all the rest. I hko to soe a man stand uoou prin ciple upon sound principles. Ihey would le bi Term-step, and Alabama, and Georgia, and when South ( arolina rame and asaed why not hit us In on tho rame principle as Tennessee aud Hip others, they would answer, "lk-cause wo ihouvht they would bo letter in than out, and we thought you won d be better out than in." On what principle do thev do thai? I w i I consider that alterwatds 'i his does not sentn to bo stutcnimnrfilp. liut, not to dwell upon that, let us consider ho thov aruo tho matter.

The war has settled the fact, whether 'they I eheve it or not, that it shan't be. Tho laot ts settled It shan't be and ail that you can ask the South is, will j on give up the laot and say sof Will you give up the fact, tlnuyh you still believe the occtrine? Are you going to keep them out till they don't be lieve the doctrine t Tne question is settled when they tar. "We have referred this question to the court and arbiliation oi war. and war has declared BtaiEst us, and we accept the verdict; wo bowto It." Can you in honor ask anything mot than thai? ' llut then we want guarantees against robellion." Four parts out oi five of the total property of tho South have been destroyed by war, and Is not that a ftiarantne that they won't fight again very soon? he i rpuiation ot tne South has been moro than do ciniatcd, doubly decimated. Ihey ate so sic of it that for ono hundred years cursed, thtty will say, be the n an that talks of war. "lljt we want guarantees that thoy will give tho freedmen their rights." Is not the Constitution a guarantee? tsnot the whole lav of labor in the l-outli a guarantee? Is not the w hole public (entimont of this nation mighty enough, with ibe Constitution on its side now, anil all natural laws and laws of political economy on our side? Aro rot theso auaiantees enough? I cannot pay any complime nt ro the South, to their courage, and to their intensity of sincerity and ne-al, gi enter than the state oi panic and tear which 1 see iu the Northern mind. "Vou seem to-be so stricken with fear that you havo lost all thought ot God, and i'rovitience, and natural law, and all power of moral Influences aud pub ic sentiment, but 1 have that fan bin the cause, and that lalih in God, and that faith1 in jou, when you waxe up to the full comoiovsnp-s of what you are end w hat your powers are, that I am wilting to risk, if tho South were twice as strong, w tin what we have now on our sido. I hey cannot be long In with holding from the freedroan his rights guaianteed to hiiu by the Constitution. On the other band, look for one momont at the rflicts of a prolonged exclusion oi the Southern States. It Is weaning the citizens ol thoso States more snd more imm the National Government. For fire years they have not thought of Washington except to cur c her. 1 hey have not folt the need of it. Trey have not tclt any blood runn.ng through them that came from tho national heart. It is pro posed to make them live fivo years moie out ot tho Union. Is that tho way to make thoui love it? Is that the way to make them leel their neod of tho Government? The utmost ovil in admitting them that can result will be that we shall be oti ised to take a longer time to do some thtiips. which now wo m au to do by legislation. Many of the th'ngs which, we seek to accomplish bv laws we shall be obliged to accom plish by moral means I have seen this anxiety to do everything by legislation, legislation, legislation, wailing for it, and I have seen the power of great moral causes. Although there is a wisdom In legis lation which I would be far irom invalidating the forms of wholesome legislation sti'l I would bal ance that by the other consideration, that it may take loo long a time, and we may reiy too much upon legislation. 1 rely upon reason and conscience. Churches are my Congiens- s, and school houses are my legislator. Kindness equal, reciprocal, or iden tical interests these are renovating irfluoncos. 1 will now glance at tbo state of feeling in tho South. When we consider what thoy Buttered, who thev were that suffb'cd; when 1 consider w.ierethov started Irom and where they brought up; when 1 consider the whole history of the case, the state of public feeling South is lar more peaceful than we could expect. It is bad enough; but it is far better than we could expect. Letter-writers, travollorx, sny a "reconstructed South," "a nice condition tho South is in to be reconstructed." ihey are our bit ter enemies; they gnash their teeth and all. I won der if you think that after yon sounnlv whip a man tnat ne is going to tnanK vou ior it. jjo you supposo that CeLeral Lee when he surrenoered shouid have thrown his bands around General Giant's neck and thanked him for whipping him and com pelling him to surrender? or that General Johnston sltou'd have regarded Sherman as his benefactor ? And should tho. South go upon its knees when it sees a lausee, and Bay "God bless you, xankee, lor all you have done lor me f" These men that talk thus do not ihke the state ol feeling at the South, 'lho Yankees tell us that the South is not fit to bo rcconstiuctod. Ii you do not take the bouth in till slip heals ot her wounds, you will not ta.ee her in ior a long time to como. Human naturo does not run this way. It is not a question of abstract jus tice; it Is a practical question, and you must docido uccoiding to known aw and to human naturo. I know the South will hei soro. Thoy believed in tin ir cause; they were defeated, and a greater disas ter could not letul them, ihey lost everything money, lame ambition, character ana all : deep gloom oeihengs them, aud proiound sorrow onDresses them and they are expected to give evidence of inauKiuiness ana joy. nicy must first nave the band ol kindness Blretcbod to them. You must p-ivo them new hopes. New business will lead them to forget old graves; new thoughts will check old tears. Kindness and business that is what tbey wakt. I bold no community can do better than to take the example of Chrtst in this mattor, who, tnoufU puro and just, was the object of .all oftensp, the most forgiving and forboariugand who suffered rather than that we should sufler; and as lie was to us lot us be to others.
