The President and tho "varioin memtwrs of his Cabinet were serenaded to-night by the National Union :iub, attended by a very large coiieoune of citizens, number ing several thousands. The President was the Urst to be complimented in this way. In ac knowledgment ol it he came out In front of tho Executive Mansion, and standing en the coping ol the balustrade, he made a very brief speech. Hie appearance was tho signal for enthusiastic greetings, Hw words were as follows: THE PRESIDENT'! SPEECH. Fellow Citizens: In appearing before you this eveuiiig it is simply lor the purpose ol tcnJoring to you tny thanks, my sincere thanks, for this demonstration, anil lor the approbation which jou have mauilcBted on this occasion and on maoy occasions before. Such approba ion is peculiarly giatifjing and encoununng tu me inder existing circumstances. All that will be necessary la to persist in the support and main tnauco of correc t principles, and the day is not difctant when the American people will satisfy you that the pood work you have commenced is right, as it will so prove in the end. (Cheers.) I repeat my thanks tor your approbation of my conduct as a public man and a public servant. The President then retired amid hearty ap plause. SPEECH OP SECRETARY WBI,LE3. I thank you, gentlemen, lor this compliment, which I suppose is to the AdminiHtration and it policy, which we one and all approve. (Cheers.) You need not expect any remarks trom me, tor I do not intend to make any. You are, one and all, I suppose, lor the Union, and tor the establishment of the rights of the States, (Cheers.) These are my views. (Cbeers.) The Secretary of War was next called upon, the band plainer "Bally Round the Flag," "When Johnny Comes Marching Home," and other airs. Secretary Stanton reDliea as lol lops: SPEECH OP SECRETARY STANTON. Gentlemen: On tho aiternoon ot Thursday, the seventn of tois month, I receved a note from he Secretary of the National Union Johnson Club, telling me it was the desig.i oi the associa tion to sereiiade the President and his Cabinet, and that I would be called upon at my resi dence. Immediately on the receipt of thus note, reply was sent to the Secretary expressing my tliunks for the compliment, and declining the lonorofthe serenade. A similar compliment iroin the patiiotic association of the Soldiers' and Sailors' League had previously been de clined. Two reasons Induced my action. The last time a public speech was niade Irom this spot in answer to a rereuade, was on the night of Friday, the 14th day ol April, 1865. At that moment, when we were rejoicing over the downfall of tho Rebellion, one of its instruments was murdering Mr. Lincoln. You will not think it strance that a complimentary occasion, Iraupht w.th such associations, should not be coveted. Besides, as the head of a Department, my publ'c duties have been simply executive, aim it has always been my aim to avoid trench iur upon duties devolved upon others, and to void mischief bv the premature discussion of matters entrusted to the Wislative branch of the Government, and under its consideration. Hut the call of this evening relieves me irom anv imputation ot intruding my opinions upon you. 1 shall, therefore, declare them briefly and plainly. To the end that they mav be neither accidentally misunderstood nor wilfully misrepresented, what it is my purpose to say on this occasion has been written. After four years of war, the authority of the Federal Government was established through out the whole territory ot the United States, at a sacrifice of over three hundred thousand lives ot lo al soldiers, and a cost ot more than three thousand millions of dollars. Nearly every household tu eighteen loyal States is mourning its lovod ones slain by Rebels. A tax, which may last for generations, is laid upon the food and raiment and necessities oi every family, and in the price of their daily bread the twenty mil lion inhabitants ol the loyal Siates feel, and will lorg eontinue to leel, what it cost fj uphold thi-ir Government against rebellion. The office ol President devolved upon Mr. Johnson at the death of Mr. Lincoln, on the 15th day ol April, 18C5. Thirteeu days belore that time Kicnmond, the seat of the Rebel Govern ment, had been captured, and six duvs later the Rehel Comnjander-in-Cbief, Robrt E. Lee, routed and vanquished, surrendered bis army, as prisoners of war, to General Grant and the force3 under his command. It? these rapidly succued inar events the Rebel Government was over thrown, it3 strength and hope exhausted, and, in every State, its armed foiees ai.d oQicial au thorities gave themselves up as prisoners of war. The President's aimual messaae to rhe present Congress thus clearly states the condition of the country and the questiou thereby impressed upon him: "I lound the States Buffering from the effects of a civil war. Resistance to the General Gov ernment appeared to have exhausted itself. The United States had recovered possession of their fons and arscnald, and tueir armies were in the occupation ol every State which had attempted to secede. Whether tne territory within the limits of these States should be held as con quered territory, under military authority emanating from the President, as head of the army, was the first question that presented itself for decision." . After (.tating the obiectlons to the continuance t merely military rule, the alternative course chosen by him aud supported by his Cabinet is thus clearly Bet forth; , "Provisional Governors have been appointed for the Stales, Conventions called, Governors elected. Legislatures as-embled, and Represen tatives chosen to the Coneress ot the united States. At the same time the Courts of the HJuitcd States, as far as could be done, have been reopened, so that the laws of tne United States may be enforced through their agency. "The blockade has been removed and the cus tom houses re-esUblit bed in ports of entry, so that the revenue ot the United Btittee may be collected. The Post Olllce Department renews its ceaselees activity, and the General Govern ment Is thereby enabled to communicate Eromptly with iU otlicers and aijents. The tourts bring security to persons and property, ihf opening of the ports invites the restoration. Igg. DAH.Y IAEKIXG TFJ.I'GRAFIT. rniLADELPIirA, THURSDAY, ol Industry and commerce, the post .oTlnes re new tho facilities ot special Intercourse, and of btieincbs " No one better than Mr. Johnson understood the solemn duty imposed upon the ntlonal Incentive to maintain the national an.honl v vmaicaied at so great a aaerliice. and tiie otiliaa tion Bot to sutler the iuct fruits of so fierce a ftrnpglc and of so many battles and victories lo slip away or turn to ashes. In many apa ches to delegations Irom loyal Sta'e-, in despatches to the provisional Governors acting undor hts anthortty, and In declarations made to tae pub lic tor their informal ion, ihero whs no disguise ot his purpoto to secure ths peace and tran quillity of the country n uBt and sure founda tions. These measures received the cordial sup port of every member of the Cabinet, and were approved by the sentiments declared in conven tions in nearly all ol the States. One point of difference presented itself, namely, the bals of representation. By some It was thought just and expedient that the right ol suffrage in the Rebel States should be secured in some form to the colored inhabitants of these States, ei'hcr as a universal rule, or to those qualified by education or bv actual service as soldiers, who ventured their lives for their Gov ernment. My own mind inclined to this view, but alter a calm and lull discussion my judg went yislded to the adverse arguments, resting upon the practical difficulties to be encountered in such a measure, and to tho President's con viction that to prescribe the rule of suffrage was i-ot within the legitimate scope of hii power. The plan ot organization embodied in the pro c1mi ation to the people of North Carolina, and tie instructions to the Provisional Governor of that State, exhibit the system and principles prescribed by the President for the substitution ot civil autboiity in the place of universal mill tsrv rule in the insurrectionary States. In tbis plan, two things presented by the proclamation and the Pieslih-nt's instructions are worthy of special notice: First, That the exercise of the organizing power is specifically and absolutely restnctod to the people "whoaie loyal to the United States, and no others." This is in accordance with the views oiten expressed by Blr. Johnson from tho commencement of the Rebellion and undor the most impressive circumstances. Secondly. The choice of delegates was not onlv limited to ljyal people, and no others, but constitutlocal guarantees were required lu re spect to the emancipation of slave and the re pudiation ot the Rebel debt. A sound reason lor such guarantees In resnnnt to slavery is stated bv the President in his mes sage, namely, the necessity of "the evidence of sincerity In the future maintenance of the Union." These views, expressed by the Presi dent in his message, receied and continue to receive my cordial acquiescence and support. Who are loyal people ? is a question that ougtit not to be difficult of decision. Atirr a full explanation of the stp-ns t ntrAft by him to restore the constitutional relations of the States, the President, in bU annual message, proceeds to state with equal distinctness what remains to be done, and to v. hom the authori'y and duty of doing it belong, lu the following "The amendment to tha Constitution hnlna adopted, it would remain tor the States vno:e powers have been so long in abeyance to resume their places in the two branches of the National Legislature, and thereby complete tne work of restoration. Here it is for you, fellow citizens ot the Senate, and lor you, MIow-cttizcns ol the House ol Representatives, lo mdae each nf m for yoursf..vvs, ot the elections, returns, and qualifications of your owu members." Whoever doubts that the authority and duty of iudging tor itself of the elect.ons and qualiti- catirnsol its members belongs to each House ot ( onpress, may have his doubt remowd hw the Federal Constitution, which declares, in the nun section oi tne nrst article, that "Each House shall btheyud7eot the elections returns, and qualifications oi its own members." In thus distinctly recognizing tho constitutional right of each House ot Coneress to ,)udee of the elections, returns, aud qualifications of its own members, the President has conlormed to the plain letter of the Constitution. It being the function of each House to lnd of the election retnrns and qualifications of its own memoers, ine onii;aiion is implied of taking testimony, weighing evidence, and de ciding tne question ot membership. What tes timony has been taken, or what evidence has been presented on the question toeuhor branch of Congress, or what iudment will be given, is not known to me, nor have Kite right of in quiring. iesides the steps take a by the Executive to restore the constitutional relations of the States, his annual message called tbe attention of Con prss to the necessity of insuring the security of the freed men, reminding Congress that while he had no doubt thtt the General Government could not extend the elective franchise, it is equally clear that good faith requires the secu rity ol the ireedmen in their liberty and their property; their right to labor, aDd their right to claim the iust return of their labor: and ob lerving, further, that the country is in need of labor, and that the ireedmen are iu need oi em ployment, culture, and protection. In connection with this subject the President further remarks, "Slavery was essentially a monopoly ot labor, and as such locked the States wbeie it prevailed against the Incoming of tree industry. Where labor wan the property of the capitalist the white man was excluded Irom em ployment, or bad but the second best chance of 1) lid rue it, and the loreign emigrant turned away from the region where his condition would be so precarious. With the destruction of this monopoly free labor will hasten Irom all parts fi the civilized world to assist in developing the various and Immeasurable resources which have hitterto lain dormant. "lhe eight or nine States nearest the Gulf of Mexico lave a soil ot exuberance and fertility, a climate friendly to long lite,, and can sustain a denser population than is lound as yet in any part of our cjnutry, aud tho future Influx of population to them will be mainly from the North or from the most cultivated nations of Etiiopa." The views of the President in relation to the freedmeu received and continue to receive my hearty concurrence. They have guided the ac tion of the War Department, and were substan tially advocated in its annual report. In what I Delieved an honest desire to con iomi to them, a bill was passed by Coneress re gulating the Fr .'eiimen's liuieau, but the provi sions of the bill did not meet the President's approval, because he believed the powers con ferred upon him and upon the agents to be ap proved bv him to b9 illegal and uncoustitu tionul. Concurring in the objects of tbe bill, and regarding the power a temporary and sate in hiB hands, 1 advised its approval, but having bteu returned to ConpreBs with tho President's objections, and having tailed to receive the need ful support, it is no longer a living measure, nor the subject of debate, or difference of opinion. Another Coneresioiial measure, called the Civil Rights bill, has been the subject of con flict. That bill, now a law, has lor its object the security ot civil rights iu the insurrectionary States. . It w as well obierved by tbe President in his annual message that "peaceful eroiaratiou to and Irom that portion of the country (iheSouth- ern States) is one ot the beat means that can be thought of for the restoration of harmony.'' Its possible interference with such' emigration was one of the chiel objectiocs to miliary rule, and by tome it Is thought that the influence of class legislation in lavor ol the slaveholding mono poly, Leietoiore existing in the Southern States, would still be strongly exerted to prevent peace ful emigration into those States, and would ex clude the laborng population ol the North from that soil of exuberant fertility aud friendly cli mate, that productive retrion, embracing tho eight or nine States nearest the Uuit ot Mexico, and that hence civil rights in those States snould be vigilantly protected by Federal laws and Federal tribunals. Although the measures enacted by Congress for this purpose tailed to receive the Executive sanction, yet having been sobered to by a two-thirds vote in each Uouse, they have now passed to the statute-book, aud ceuBe to be the subject of debate. Another measure, or series of measures, of piime tmportuce, now pending before Con Kress, merits a brief remark, namely, the plan ol rtbtoratlon, or reooiutructiou, as it is some times called. To the plan reported by the Joint Committee I 'have not been able to give icy assent. It contemplates an amendment to the Federal Constitution, the third section of the piopoped sr'lslo being in there terms: "Sro lon 8. Until tbe Fourth dar of Julv, In the year 1870, all D reons who voluntarily arhered to tne Ine it. sum ct ion, pirin it aid and eom'ort thall be trclvdtii from the nrht to vote lor irpresentaUrM la lorprpM and lor electors for President and Vioe 1'iesidcnl of tho Uniled M ates " It is urged by the -advocates of' this plan that tbis third section is the vital one, without whictt the others are ot no value. Its exclusive action will, no douht, c?mmend it to the feelings of many, as a wise and m provision; but I am unable 60 to regard it, because, for four years, It binds Congnse to exclude from voting for Representatives of Presidential Electors "all persons w ho voluntarily ad nered to the late in surrection, giving it aid and comfort." No mat ter what may he the condition of the country, nor what proois of rtecnt and future lovalty may be riven, Rn absolute Constitutional bar Is to be erected for lour years against a large class of persons. Change of circumstances and condition often works rapid change in political sentiments, and nowhere with more marked result than in the South. It Is belieetl that elements of change are now at wotk there, stimulating on one Bide to loyalty, and. on the other, tending to con tinued hostile feelings. . In my judgment every proper incitement to union should be fotercd and cherished, and for Coneress to limit its own power by a Constitutional amondment, for the period of lour years, might be deplorable In its result. To those who differ I accord the same honesty, and, perhaps, greater wisdom than I can claim for myself. As the proposed plan now stands, I am unable to perceive the nec-sitv, justice, or wifdom of the measure; but having no place nor voice in the body before which tbe measure is pendire. I disclaim any purpose to interfere, beyond the expression ' ot my pwn opinion. Havine thus declared my views, as they have heretofore been declared to those who had the right to know them, on the material questions that have lately arisen, or are now peudlne, I trunt that your purpose on this occasion is answered, and I shall be elad if their expression may have any beneficial influence on questions the right disposition whereof is a matter of soli citude to every patriotio man, and is deeply important to the peace and tranquility ol the country. Recognizing the co-ordinate branches of Gov ernment, legislative, ludicial, and executive, and entertainins lor each the re-peci which is due Irom every loyal citizen, they are entitled to and shail receive, according to my be"t Judg ment, the support which is required by that Constitution, which, alter unesamolcd conflict, has been upheld and sanctified by Divine favor, and through the sacrifice of so much blood and tressure. The Secretary of the Treasury was neit called on, and said: SPEECH OF HON. HUGH Jl'cCLLOCn. Fellow-Citizens: You are aware that I am not In the habit of mak.ng speeches, aud I take it tor granted, therefore, that in making this call upon me you intended only to pay me a passing compliment, and not to elicit Irom me any ex tone'ed remarks. I shall not disappoint you; I shall not be so ungratelul for your kindness as to inflict upon youappeech. My position, gen tlemen, in relerence to the issues which are now cufiuKiujf iue puonc aueunou are not, 1 appre- nena, misunderstood by you. 1 took occasion la-t fall among my old friends in Indiana to define my position, and since that time 1 have seen no occasion to change, much less to a: andon ii. I will say, therelore, as I r-uppose 1 must fay something on this occasion, that the general policy of the President in re fertnee to the Southern States, and the people recently iu arms against tbe Federal Govern ment, has commended itself to my deliberate ludgment; and, although it has been violently, in some instancru vindictively assailed, I have an abiding conviction that it will be approved by the people when they shall be allowed to pass judgment unon it at the ballot-box. This plan is fairly stated in, the platform of the Club which many of you represent. I need not say, tbereiore, in regard to that platiorm any more than that I subscribe to all its doc trines fully and - without reserve. I suppose, gentlemen, that some or us expected thai at th close of this great war, in which much bad blood had been excited, and much good blood had been shed, we should have blue Bkie3 and calm ecas. The President of the United States, gentle men, stands belore the country in no doubtful attitude. His voice eave utterance to no un certain IttBsuag when it denounced treason. At the ontbreaii of the RebeUion.. in the Senate of the United States, be showed no faltering fidelity, when, counting everylhiug else as of no value, as mere dust in the" balnuce in com parison wi fa tbe Union aad the Constitution, he went back to Tennessee to tight treason and secession in their strongholds, and peril his life and lhe lives of his family. ILs policy is straightforward, intelligible, and practical. It a better policy can be presented, one more in consonance with the principles of the Govern ment, better calculated to preserve the supre macy of the Federal authority, while it trenches not on the reserved and legitimate riehts of the States more lust, more humane, better fitted to bind the people of this great country In a common brotherhood, at the same time that it places just condemnation on treason, and vindi cates the majesty of the law, if such a polic can be presented, there is no man iu the United who will more willinely embrace it than An drew Johnson. (Cheers.) But until that better policy be presented, he must be false to himself, lalseto his record, and must, in tact, ceasa to be Andrew Johnson, it he does not adhere to his policy, and sink or swim with it.. It is pretty good evidence, alter all, gentlemen, of his correctness of policy, that Congress, alter having been in session neaily Six long weary months, has been unable to present one which they can agree upon as a substitute. It was once said, 1 think, by John Randolpu, that "of all tinkers the Constitution linkeis were tbe most to be depiecated." If the old man could rise from his grave, what would he sny to the present Coneress, in which every third man, at least, is a Constitution tinker!? (Cheers and lauehter.) But they are not wise enough to timend that grand old in strument, the work of our patriot larhers of the republic, the glory of the United States snd the admn ation ot the world. My lellow-citizcns, tdere is but one proposi tion that has been preseutea which stands even the ghost of a chance of acceptance by the peo ple ot tbe North, aud that is the proposition baaine repreeentation on voters; aud whose fault is it that that is not pari of the Constitu tion to-day ? Why was it not tubtuited with the amendment abolishine slavery? Whose tiult was that? (Voices, "The Copperheads." Other voices. "Tbad. Stevens.") Mr. McCulloch Was it the fault of Anorw Johnson? (ShouU ot "The lault of Coneress," ' Tbad. Stevens," and counter cheers tor Mr. Stevens.) It the course which the President was pursuing was obnoxious to the charges made against it iu the recess of Comjifes, how happened it that there was no deuunciation of U linril lhe meeting of Congres? How hap pened It that thesf Jupiter lonans of Congress wt re as silent as though they had been dumb? Those men whose duty it was to stuud on the ramparts of the Constitution and alurra the people of approachlmr danger, why did they aiov denounce that policy, aud demand of tho President a;convention of Congress? No such i emand w as made; no such denunciaiion was then heard. We did hear a voice Irom Pennsyl vania, I believe, and perhaps a responsa from Massachusetts (Laughter.) But the people were silent, If not approv ng. Fellow citizens, 1 did not intend speaking so much. I have ouly this to eay: I have dasired and hoped lor the eontinuance of. this ereat Union party, wllh which I have been ever iden tified. Hut if its leaders can present notnine better than the programme of the committee, 1 am greatly apprehensive that its days will be numbered. 1 trust, fellow-citizens, that this will not be the case; that it will discard its hos tility and it- attempt to continue alienation be tween the two sections of the count! y, and that it will embrace those -principles which look to harmony, to rebtoration, and to peace. If It should do this it will still continue to be the preat and conirolling party of tberounirv, and cover itself with Imperishable alory If it does not, its davs arenumbered, and tho epitaph tbat will bo wntten on It will be: "It knew how to prosecute the war with- vleor: but It lacked the wisdom to avail Itsell of tho benefits ot vic tory."

Sir: Several days since I received a note r igned by you, as Presldnt of the National Union Club, inlormln"? me of their Intention to serenade tho President and his Cabinet officers on an eveninff which von then named, and a note irom the Secretary of tbis f oiganization announcing Its postponement ou i account ot the character of the weather. I I have to-day leceived a third note, signed by the Corresponding Secretary, inlormiiig me that the seienade will bo tendered this evening, at 8 o'clock. Alter tendering to you and tbe Club mv thinks for the compliment ol including me in the number to be thus hohord, I regret to be ompellcd to add that my official eugaceinents render it it impracticable for roe to bo present. This circumstance gives me less puin, as 1 am not conscious ot having done an vthing which entitles me personally to the honor of such an ovation; and if the proposed "call" is intended, as tbe newspapers assert, to furnish the officials connected with the Executive Department ot the Government an opportunity to announce their opinions on political subjects, I am in clined to think it a pardonable eeotism for me to suppose that my opinions are fully known to all who may consider them of mittlcient conse quence to merit a passing noilce, as I have frankly proclaimed them on the floor of the Senate and irom tho rostrum, for ten consecu tive years next precedine the commencement of my service as Secretary of the Interior, and have not at any time since, when occasions required it, failed to express my views with equal candor. As my political affiliations m the past have not been doubtful, I do not intend that they shall be so in the luture. I have been four times elected to a seat in the United Stites Senate by the Legislature of Iow a, as a repre sentative ot the Republican Union party, aud as ' a iiicmoer oi mat political organization I was appointed to the ollice I row hold. To botray .tho confidence thus reposed in me would be a 'manifestation ot ingratitude so glariugly dis- nonoranie, tnal I am sure no intelligent member of your organization suspects it. Nor can it be expected Itat I will do or say anything which would, in my opinion, tend to divide, weaken, or demoralize the great Union organization until the puipoees of its creatiou shall have beea fully accomplished. 1 have the honor to be, very respectfully, your obedient servant, James Harlan.
