TnH Ane quote?, with apparent approval, some extracts from a recent lctlur written by General MiBTiNDAi.K to Senator Shermax. It parade certain truixms in it with (treat piuto, as thoutrh anybody doubted that the mass of the ttebela were, in a certain Bonne, "sincere.' But what of that? Does that niake the three hundred thau sand lives wc have sacrificed any the less precious, or the three thousand millions of dol lars we have spent any the less valuable? Sincerity is a very poor plea to set up as an ex cuse for crime. The Age says: "Here is a Re publican soldier who says that in hi? opinion the South could not help nghting, and "wai rifeht'to fisht." The Age is dishonest. It seeks to make it appear that General Martindale asserts tbut the South was morally light, and justified in fighting. It knows be'.ter. What Mahtindalk said was this: "In my opinion, while the insti tution of slavery continued to form their habits and national character, they wererighttn regard ing the differences betieeen us as irreconcilable and irrepressible." This is merely Mr. Seward's old doctrine of the "irrepressible conflict" between freedom and slavery over again. Of course, while they persisted In believing, with the Age, that slavery was morally rlsrht, economically pro lituble and socially desirable.ncither they nor any body else could regarri the differences between them and us as otter than "irreconcilable and irrepressible." But the very pistol Maktindai.e's whole letter the Age fails to see or appreciate, a'thouh, for a wonder, it publishes it- It is where he nays: . . ' '.'In tbat resort to war the whole cause of differ ence was iuvoived aud mated. If we ol the North bad failed in the war, we should have been con st rained to concede that slavers , and its incidents aud consequences in the lorination of Southern sodiety, ha be. n confirmed aud cUb'is'ied. and must prevail throughout the country as tltc condition, of ' the rmewtd union. 1 Southern men knew tha their dofnat involved tlie dest- uoilon of Blaverv and its consequences "We all know, North and Son li, that the attempt to rei rgamze v o opposing s stems oi f'rea and slave sociot? under Our Government U madness, because it must rekintllo civil war." This covers the whole question, and states the issue most admirably, The war was between two trreat svstems of society between irre concilable and antagonistic Ulers. Had tan South triumphed, slavery, with "all its inoidents and consequences," must have prevailed throughout the country "as the condition of renewed Union." So, on the other baud, the North having triumphed, freedom, with aU Us incidents and consequences, must prevail through, out the country as the condition of renewed Union. That is true and sound doctrine, and wo thank General Mabtindalb for putting the philosophy ot the issue so plainly before the people. All our trouble arises from the unwillingness ot the South, and especially of its Northern allies fie Democrats to accept this platn statement of the case. They are not willing to acknowledge that tie South, with its aye terns and ideas, was really overthrown in the war. They are still striving to save as many as possible of the "incidents and consequences" of slavery. On the other hand the North claims, and rightfully clalrai, and muil not and will not give up, the substantial fruits of victory. In that resort to war, as Martindalb says, "the whole cause of difference was in volved and stated." Freedom triumphed, and (reedom, with all its incidents and consequences, must prevail throughout the country as the con dition of renewed union. Toe Southern idea was overthrown its system destroyed and the v hole concern must now go by the board. We are not going to keep the "incidents and conse quences" alter the principal has been destroyed. The sooner the Smith recoenizes these thing and acts upon them, the sooner will the condi tion of renewed union be fully established. The Age, too, and those whom it represents, had better give up the contest. They may as well recognize the fact that there has been a revolution, and that slavery is at an end. Tbe iay for winning pr liticul victories by appeals to the prejudice and brutality which were among the chief oi slavery's consequences, has passed. The Age don't seem to rculize it, and bellows anayaa lustily about the. "nigger," as though we wpre et'U living in the dark days when slavery ruled the country, it is time for these political Rip Von Winkles 1o wake up, and com prehend, If they can, tbe great change that has come over the land.

Last nltrht a rich and rare intellectual treat was promised to the Fenians of riu.adnlph'a. 1 ho daily papers announced to their expectant eyes that tbo prist Jamts bu-phens, C. O. 1. B , the lineal de scendant ot the man who lived in Tara's Halls aud the weaicr of the want e of Wolf Tone, Brian Uoru, and Smith O Bncn, would expound the mv terlcs bf the Brotherhood at National Hall. The relection ol the place oi speaking was ominous. The aroma of pugl'ism lianas round tbe Na lonal. We know not whotbor some poppy, or rnandrago.-a, or some other potent spirit has been instilled into Its walls, but certain It is that tor a peaceful public meeting to bo held there is an anomaly in the his tory ol the building. The architect seems to havo deigned his wo'k in oidcr that every facility for contests and interruption should bo alfurded. The stage is low and narrow, so tbat tho occupants ot the auditorium can cauturo the occupants of tho lilh seats of the napoidio without the aid of Kiai pin n irons. The rear of the room asceudd, so that niiosiies hurled can fol'ow the law of jrravitv In th lr course towards the speakor's head. In fact, every temptation to a conflict is piojouted, and if lew American audiences can resist tho iufatuation, how can Irishmen hope to 'Met not thoirauirry pas sions risu?" As wo sat upon the stao, visions of the John Brown meeting roe boiore us, visions of ti enetro equality meetiuf, and of countless Demo cratic assemblies, fli.ed the air. Wo felt we were on the evo ot a great eveut. Tie hall filled up slowly as tho hour of ciirht ap proached. The sanguine imputed tuc slim attend ance to tho reooss.ty of paying fifty cents; tho un piej.idiced laid it at the door ot lack of interest. Bo tbe caune what it may, five hundr.-d would be a liberal estimate ot the size ot the audience. 'If the aroma of contest was imperceptible, tho aroma of lenianism oon made Itsolf appieciaole, and but for the viomity of an open wiudow, patriotism itsolf muft have been smothered. At last Stephens, ac companied by a numb.r ot theuutcrr fhd, appoarei, and was jtrveted with lond applause. He is a sliorr, heavily-Luilt mau, wiih a hign loroliead and bald head, with the exception oi u narrow string of long red looks, brushed back behind his ears. lie is by no moans a handsomo mao, and hU general physiognomy U larfrom prepossessing. Mr. Andrew Wynne performed the ceremony of in troduction, which was the sirnai lor a round ot applause. The "Or. at Mogu." ol tho Brotherhood cemmenn. d h's oration amid profound sllenco: 'I could not be d heartened when I llstun to that cheer. It has cheered my heart, it the choer will allow me" At this stage of the oiation the audience fell into the natural delusion that tbe Chief Execu tive was asking for more cheers, and they proceeded immediately to gratify his wishes. Mr. Stephens resumed his address. He is not a fluont speaker, but hesitat s, halts, and frequently seems at a loss for word?, lie has none of the powerful manner or pleasing address which we would expeot from an Jnsh leader, tut ramhles s owly along, with but the one redeeming quality of per ect sell-possussion. Ihe speech is given in full in tho morning papers, and was interrupted by six females, stated in the lore part of the hall, waving I mall pocket-handkerchiefs, a rlgnal for the men to apilaud. As tho iomales did not possess great dis crimination, they took a cue every time tho orator lilted his hand ; heico the enthusiasm was frequently slightly out oi place. Foi instance, be reuiarkod with great iury, "You Fenians in America have bo traytd us in Ireland" ibis complimentary an nouncement was greeted with wild applause by the betrayers. After speaking tor about au hour, Mr. btephens announced himself not only willing but anxious to answer tny questions which might be put to h'm by the audience. He wanted ail douots to bo solved, and begged tbut uono would hesitate. At tuis point of the absemblage the tun commenood. TV e have attended many a farce at the theatre; we have seen John Brougham, tho Drews, C ark a, and all the leading comedians; hut never ws a more perfectly absurd scene presented than tho ouo winch was kept up lor tho next hour Upon the bint ol M . 8tej;boi.f a man in tho auil.enco spok". He akcd: "Do I understand you to sav that th poop e of Iitlaua ure so ULicat-onabie that tn-v don't waut Fug and ciippled at an po.ut except ou tne oust ol lie aud or Kngiaudt" Mr. Stephens replied : "'I hey want England crippled, hut do not waut Ireland crippleu ; at the same time ihov know taat lie. and will be deiKroved.

Whoth r you, James Stephens, are not a British agcui employed to de stroy tbe Influence of American Irishmen in favor of their native country f" - . j . Mr Stephens 'Your'e a tiaitor; your'e no Fenian. Gentlemen, am I to be insulted? Put him out, put luni out;" and the furious Chief rushed at his Inter rogators, seized the quesiious from the gentleman's hands, and flung them on the floor, fae oriet of the EVENING TELEGRAril.

A short haired leadi r on the te made a ru-h lor the viotim ot misp accd confidence He wis seiifd, hurried off the j lalforra satis bit, sans tnntnorfpt, satis senses, and deposited In a cornet, where four faithful Fenian kopt guard.

But no soonor did he recognize h s late opponent, than an ' Ohf its you be quiet!" wo ild .ssue from the Chief, aud the too rash queationor would sjbeido. It is a fact worthy of note, that the only offense ol the gentleman, was taking Mi. Mephcns at his word, and that Mr. Stephens did not answer tbe question about a Ktitisa aarout, tried to iroront tbe audi ence bearing it, at d, aiter courting all investigation, topped the first attempt at it. Il is worthy ot note thai tu q 10 tiooi were writ ten out and show n to Mr Hlept.ens before tho moot ing, and that be expressed perfect willingness to answer them, lint no toonor were they propounded than he turned on bis questioner. A Iter the excitement had partial'r subs ded another voice arose in tne audience. "Were we loon tor tiustiug John U'ilHtiony when you endorsed mm?" Mr. biitiheiis You have been tampered with, sir! You are invdioui, girl Khali the truo Irishmen doubllhe patiiotism ot their fellow, at home. Will you not s and Lv your native laud?" and a vast sup ply oi buncombe, whiuh distracted the attuuiiou of the auuience, siltnoed tho uulorluuaie questiouor and created great eutliuHiasm lor the eatiiotio otnef. Agam-"V here did Jt. J. Alal tos his paper? How aoon wore they found?" Mr. Stephens ( w l.nlv ) 'I see your purposo I scorn you. You aro invidious. Uo to Ireiauu, aud at-k the Irish; they will ten you if they dou't naug you, who is to bo uusto l. Ask iheiu wiietber I have not Oouo my autj," etc. As hoiih ol the bearers seem id inclined to do si their clnvt advised, he looked around triumphant.
