It may be that, some time within the memory
Df the oldeat Inhabitant, there has been in this
pood old Quaker City a political demonstration
Vhick, in magnitude and enthusiasm, sur
passed tLe scenes presented by our streets lafit
Sight. But if such' is tne case, it has slipped
from our remembrance.
As Boon as tho sun wcat down the city beprau
lo stir. A stranger in our midst could tunn have
canity Oivined that something unusual was
under way. Men, women, and children came
J'orth from their dwellings by the ions of thou
sands. Hundreds of men were uniformed in
raps and capes, and bore torches and Haas on
llicir shoulders, as they hastened hither and
thither to the respective pluees of rendezvous.
This was the most perplexing part ot the
"Whole atlair, as processions were to start from
Jiiiiny uilleicnl points, and consequently tho
Slurrying throng di . ldt d again and mai.i, as its
ramponerit parts soueht those localities in
which they imagined they could catch a glimpse
tt the, to them, most interesting portion ot the
demonstration.
The Procession..
Although thousands were attracted by the
Fpeuking at tne Academy ot Music and the
Union League, evidently tho most attractive
Jeature ol the evening was the urand Torchlight
processiou and its various accompaniments.
I' torn the first preparations lor the atlair it
"Was seen that the procession would be too un
"wieldlj to be formed into a continuous line, and
ior this reason it was deemed expedient to
divide it into three eraiid divisions, entitled the
"'Southern," "Noitheaatern," aud "Nortli
.Vrestern." The First, or Southern Division, was formed
Under the Chief Marshalship of Colonel Edward
IBiles, assisted by a multitude of mouuted Aids.
3t consisted of the delegations ot the First,
Second, Third, Fourth, and Filth Wards, cacti
ot which made an imposing display. In this
iiriion, as in all the others, there were many
attractive transparencies, among which we no
ticed the following:
"Andy, have you heard from Maine?"
"No Coppirheads in the Eaale's nest."
"We propose to move on the enemy's works
cn Tuesday next.''
"Andy Johnson, stay at home and keep
sober."
One of the baDnen of the Fourth Ward dele
gation contained a representation of a volun
teer, musket on shoulder, and threatened from
the rear by the lungs of a serpent. The said
serpent was supposed to be iieister Clynier,
llsq., aud was labelled "The Spirit ot the Age."
The Northeastern Division was under the
Snarshalship ut Colonel William 13. Mann, and
contained in its line the deletions of the
Sixth, Eleventh, Twelfth, Tnineenth, Sixteenth,
.Eighteenth, and Nineteenth Wards, and the
Herman Campaign Club. Among the most pro
jninent transparencies were the folio wing:
"We are swinging around the circle."
"As a roaring lion and a raging bear, so is a
wicked ruler over the poor people." Proverbs
Sxvin. 15.
"Which is the shortest way to Chicago ?"
"We have 110 renegades among us."
The Northwestern Division was under the mar
fchatship ot Benjamin H. Brown, an1 comprised
the delegations ot the Fourteenth, Fifteenth,
ITwentietb, and Tweuty-tirst Wards. Many ap
propriate transparencies, were displayed in this
3ortion ot ihe procestion, among which were
Xhe following: '
"If I had my way, I would build a fence
around the country, taking the negroes lor
posts and the Irish lor rails?' Extract from a
speech by John Welsh in I806.
The "Elephant Club," which marched with
the Twentieth Ward, were equipped in caps and
capes, and had in their line the stuiled carcass
of an elephant, which htuanted great attention.
There was etill another division, compoed of
the "Republican Invlucibks," and delegations
3rom the Fourth, Seventh, Eighth, Ninth, Tenth,
nd Twenty-seventh Wards. Ttie "Iuvincibles"
nade one of the tinest displays ot the season,
numbering full 700 men, and marching with the
Utmost military preeuion. They carried with
them the hnest transparency that was tver wit
nessed in this or, perhaps, in any other demon
stration of a similar character.
. It bore a monstrous capital "I," in the body of
which was the crouching lorin of Andy John
pon, bearinc in his hand a scroll labelled "My
2Johcy." This niagniBcent caricature was
placed in a wagon drawn by six horses.
The Eighth Ward delegation likewise had
a monster of a transparency, which was so
3argo that a wagon was necessary to trans
port it. The principal motto was the following
extract from Mr. Lincoln's address in Philadel
phia on the !4'2d of February. 1HU1:
"But it this country cannot ba saved without
piving up tbat principle, I was about to say 1
would rather be assassinated on the spot than
Surrender it."
On the reverse was a representation of a
inechanio standing by his anvil, with one hand
Testing on the head of a boy, who held an open
copy of the Constitution of the United States.
3u the distance were a public school-house, a
train of cars, end a ship at sea, thus represent
ing the four great sources of our wealth and
prosperity as a nation.
The League House,
is usually the case on such occasions, was a
Maie of light. The main stand tor speakiug
"was immediately in front of this. Three other
lauds were erected at convenient distances.
fThe crowd ot people which as.sembled to listen
to the words of cheer and patriotism filled the
whole space of Broad street, from Market to
"Walnut streets. One ot the most noticeable
features whs the presence of a far greater num
ber of ladies than is usually seen in lueh a
gathering.
Many of the most prominent gpeakers in the
rountry addressed the enthusiastic multitude at
this point. Among others, were Governor Cur
tin, Hon. Hannibal Hamlin, Hon. Charles
O'Neill, and Senator Cole, of California,
The proceedings were inietum-Mixi aiih a.
plentiful sprinkling off fireworks. An immense
iiuiuner 01 iw.-a.uiB buu iuuinu cauuies were dis
charged, creatine at time the liveliest appre
hension of iallLng sticks on the part ot tho
crowd below.
An imposing effect was produced by the simsl
taneouB . discharge of many ot these from one
locality. The eifect was grand and startling,
and has probably never bclore been witnessed
on ro great a scale.
The t.penktng commenced at 8 o'cloc k. Atfl
the processions began t arrive, heralded by
torches, rockets, banners, and all the eorgcous
paraphernalia ot an army ready for battle. As
they pressed their war throueh the multitude
which packed tho broad thoroughlare, they
were the ieciplents of the wildest and most en
thusiastic ovation that it is possible to conceive
of. The scene at this time was one that beggars
u attempts at description.
For the length ot several blocks the street was
ablaze with lights, and overhung by a canopy of
smoke, through which pierced the Hery trails of
rockets without number; and every now and
then the voice of a great gun was heard above
ttie din of tho drums and the cry of the surging
mnsses.
Beyond a doubt, the Quaker City list evening
presented a scene such as has never before been
witnessed throughout the length and breadth of
the country.
The Academy of Munlc.
From the immensity of the crowds upon the
street, one would have imagined that the Acu-
, demy of Music was necessarily the witness of a
agiin audience, dui sucn was nor, im- usc. ouuu
an eager, enthusiastic ciowd has seldom been
congregated within its walK
Hon. William D. Kelley was called to the
rhair, aDd introduced the orator ol the evening,
norace Greeley, of New York, in the following
words:
Ladies and Gentleman: Expression of grati
tude, like acts ot justice, is ever in season, and
my brst duty to-night is to thank the commit
te having in charge this meeting lor the
dist nguished honor conferred upon me in
inviting me tcpresido at it, and present to you
one of America's most honored sons (applaiuc).
the instructor of our generation, the expounder
of the iaws ot political economy, which would
strengthen a people, uphold a nation, aud tho
disrcgardjof which must lead to the commeroial
desolation from which our country has so olteu
sullered. The advocate of tho rights 01 the
laboring man himself a model wonting man.
Some thirty odd years ago Horace Crceloy
conceived the notion that he would like to have
a day's ttshing, and as the fishing season has
returned with each year, tbat desire has re
vived and somewhat strengthened, yet the day's
fishing has never been enjoyed. 'I want the
people of Pennsylvania to ecaole him to enjoy
it. He bus nlwajs had duties to peiform because
dangers assailed the country, or some of lis
great interests. Let us ou next Tuesday roll
up fifteen thousand majority in Philadelphia,
and tilty thousand in the State, and we will pro
duco such an etlect upon the November elec
tions that I am quite sure he will feel lor once
the country is sale, and make the trout of some
mountain stream sutler.
Without timber detention I piescnt to you
the 11. n. Horace Greeley, of Nev Yoik.
Mr. Greeley then cume lorward, and was loudly
applauded; alter it hud subsided, he spoke as
follows:
Ladies and Gentlemen: It Is only with dilli
culty, aud by speakiua quite slowly,' thai I may
hope to cnublo a majority ot this vast aud euce
to hear what I wish to suy.
1 did apprehend that in the very crisis, the
agony of your great struggle here, that the cold,
calaa words in which I am accustomed to speak
must fall tamely on the gcnerul ear. I am not
accustomed to stir passions, nor even to attempt
to do so: and what I would wish to-night, it I
can be favcred with your attention, is to cast
some retrospect on the past history of the
country, and strive to read and enable you to
read the duties of the present, and a little more
clearly in the light cast upon them by the dan
gers and struggles of our forefathers, and your
selves down to this day.
1 think you will ngree with me, that the con
troversy concerning human slavery in this
country 1s very near its close. Let us then try
to tee whut mistakes have been made, what
errors have been committed in the past, that im
posed on us cotne measure ot struegle and of
duty to-day. I do not think to begin with that
our iuthers are justly censurable for the planting
of human slavery in this country, now nearly
two centuries and a half ago. It was like all
vice, like all error it crept iu upon us.
No man ever deliberately resolved to be a bad
man, and no nation deliberately originates and
establishes pernicious and evil institutions.
They creep in upon us. Bad habits, bad laws,
bud usaees creep in unobserved, and then they
come to attract attention, call themselves insti
tutions, ana claim rrom mankind that measure
of respect and deference which tho mass are
always inclined to accord to that which has
been established; and so, then; slavery slipped
into this country under the favor of foreign
rulers. Kings and ministers received bribes
trom slave-traders, aud winked at its establish
ment here.
Our fathers had no such clear conceptions as
we have ot the rights of human nature, and
slavery needed lavor of sovereigns who realized
the gratuities thrust into their pockets, and did
notyealize theicurses imposed. upon this destined
regi ueration, who tolerated and shielded aud
protected it against the remonstrances of our
ancestors aeainst fhe repeated and ursent
demands that this evil fabould not be thrust and
fastened upon us. Well, then, the first time our
lathers had one fair chance to act on the sub
ject illiciently the American Kevolution it
was lust as clearly understood by the patriots
ot that day that liberty and slavery are antago
nistic and incompatible, just as surely under
stood by them, as by any John Brown or William
Llojd Garrison of this day.
They saw it not at the North alone, but in
South Carolina and Georgia. The leading
patriots of the Revolutionary times saw as
clearly as Jefferson or Adams, that if liberty
wouiu prevail ana Decora e ine mw 01 tim coun
try, slavery must die. No Seward was ever more
urgent In proclaiming the irrepressible conflict,
no Lincoln ever more cogently or tersely said
the Union could not endure halt slave and half
lree, than Henry Lawrence, and Jellerson, and
every great man 01 the lievolutionary age.
This day we are entering on a great htrueerlo
with an immensely formidable power. We have
a very large majority in our own land who are
the loyal, devoted adherents of that power.
Now, then, if we today make war on slavery;
it we declaie that the American idea is instant
death to slavery here, we shall Increase the
number of our opponents; we shall Increase the
power and venom ot the Tory party in this
country; we shall not add anything to our
strength.
The thirteen independent sovereignties colo
nies then were mode States. They were not a
nation as we are. They wera a league of inde
pendent sovereignties, and whatever Congress
nnant do, whatever the patriots of the nation
might do, the whole nation would have com
manded but a slender measure ot respect and
obedience in the Southern colonies.
Well, now, surely we wished to see somethine
done lor liberty ; something was done. The men
who made the Constitution believed that accord
ing to the Held of human experience slavery was
only kept alive by the continued Importation of
men African negroes. There was never an in
stance in human experience that human slavery
had been sustained otherwise than by tho con
stant Influx of slaves ironi Africa.
Here, then, our fathers gave Congress the
pow er to prohibit the importation of certain per
sons, meaning African slaves. They fondly be
lieved that they had insured the Blow and
gradual extinction of American slavery. It was
a calculation bbsed on an immutable experience,
and yet the calcu.ation was afterwards battled
with by the Invention of the cotton-gin aud the
purchase of Ixmisiana.
Tbe great opportunity passed by, and passed
by In the Missouri struggle, the lexus annexa
tion, the Mexican war, and other controversies
which 1 need not mention because they are
tresh lu jour memory. They were the natural
results of that great mistake when we ad
mitted Louisiana, and allowed slavery to be
the luudamental law ol thut great, inognitl
ct nt, beuutilul, fertile, genial rceion. The mis
take we made then ha colored all our subse
quent lilstoiy.
The Ir.stant that acquisition of territory was
made, that instant tbe pim of ilavery arose in
our national co'wcIh, and mado great preten
sions and exactions, and day alter day pew
demands, until the result was civil war. Now
there are pood men ho call themselves con
servative men. who bavc deprecated for the last
lortv j cars slavery agitation. Every ono de
mandpd tor more, more, and more on thi side
ottb slave, however, until flnnlly a demnnd
was made In tho broadest possible terms: Yon
rhall agree thnt ever foot of land shall be
come a slave tcriitrrv. in nhlr.h pvnrv alnvi.
liclder or nny Slaveholder has a right to take
his chattels and there bold them In defiance of
public fcntinicnt, in defiance of local law.
The Demon atio party was broken up at
Charleston with deliberate intent, tbit it should
be ICBtcn In the election, in order that It should
be cause lor tbe destruction of this republic,
and establish a slavery-extending empire, a mar
tial ami military power, despotism at the bend,
aristocracy and military In the framework, and
having lor its object the gradual acquisition of
Me.ico and South Amciica und the West Indies,
and the planting in tho heart of the Amertenn
continent of the greatest, the most terrible
elnvery-extenditig empire the world ever saw.
This grand scheme of ambitiou destroyed the
Democratic party in order to give place to seces-.
tion, rebellion, and the overthrow and divinion
of the Americau Republic. There are those
pood men, wise men, patriotic men who believe
ns I do, not that it whs necessary in rc.iisMng
the Democracy and overthrowing this con
spiracy to qualify tor It, not to ignore or subvert,
that fiiiidamenuil priuciole of thi American
Republic ann of til true republicans that aov
erijments derive their just , powers from
the consent of lue govci'iiCd. , I do
bilieve that this conspiracy was repug
nant to a majority of the people of the South.
1 believe it was concocted by violent, bloody,
resiles, ambitious men whom slavery every
where court- the blacKlegs, slave-traders, aiid
corrupt men, who, not being rich enouch, aud
being aiistocmtic and therefore too prou.J to
labor to get riches and luxury and power with
out labor.
Tin class arc in favor ol rebellion, those who
consider the world nn oyster, which they aie
iieiermined somehow or other to open and
enjoy, but to say that the majority of the people
in this Union ever deliberatofy desired to break
up ai d destroy this Union, is to say what Is not
true.
Said Mr. William 11. Russell, tbe able corres
poi dc-nt of the London limes, to me in a com
munication, "What will jou do with your Poland
when you have captured it?" I said "1 did not
ki ow any thine better to do than to liberate tbe
Poles." (Lanirliter.) Buys General Guutf, of
Aikoueas. whom aoubthss most ot you bavc
heuro: "Mr, I tell jou this is true. The South
ern people never were tor this Rebellion. 1 was
a Rebel," siys he; "I was lor it. I stood at tne
polls in my county (Washington) all the day of
that election, and I never woiki-d harder iu my
lite; and win re 1 had been accustomed to carry
sevc n-eiehtlis of the votes with me I could not
get a majority. Some 01 theiu may be ignorant, I
but not one ot them was so ignorant as net to 1
know thnt the l.uir with the stars und stripes
wa the tlag 01 hi. country." This is not tne
t' stimuni of one amor ten men, but of hun
dreds of thousands.
A ereat majority of the people of the South
thought this struggle was dimply a device lor
takinc down the North. They were lorced into
it. It w a a conspiracy ot two or three millions
of people, w it ldiug every resource, and thera i
teiial and military piwer often millions. Four
mill'i ns you say were slaves. But thero must
be men to till tho fields, as well as to work the
gi;ns; and tne lour millions were just as efl'ec
the, so long as they continued to till the fields
as the men who were working the guns. Some
said it was an impossibility tobubdue the SoutU;
that it was a thickly wooded rebellious region,
and that largo and small armies would perish
aliLe. It toey were persistently a unit, they
were not to be overcome In uny way.
The emancipation policy was the only condi
tion, by which this tremendous conspiracy could
be ovirthiown. It w us a call of tour millions
of Americans from slavery to liberty, Iroin
dnrkneEs to light.'lrom uothimr to be a some
thing. It was denounced and execrated by ttie
mtu who did not fcce that the Rebellion should
be put down. It was said in New York aud
Philadelphia, as well as in Richmond and
Charleston, that Lincoln's proclamation had
deMiojed the last hope of ie-establishing the
Union.
When we came to the iRst Presidential elec
tion, you know how absolute, bow dictatorial,
how inconsiderate were the predictions. It you
le-elected Lincoln you signed tne death-warrant
ot the Union. In spite ol all we triumphed.
(Applause.) Iu a lew months after the Presi
dent took bis seat, tbe Union was recovered,
and the twenty -years' guerilla war we were
threatened with stopped. Let us see where we
are to-day.
General Sherman was Induced to make a cer
tain treaty which seemed to recognize the Rebel
State Governments as Governments, and turning
tLe am. s of the Confederacy over to them. In
other words, to reorganize, recognize, and re
establish the Southern btates on the Rebel basis.
We have triumphed, not to re-establish iiiose
GoenmiCnt8, not to recognize tbem, bat to
cicate new Governments which shall be the
e.-si nce of loyalty and in lavor ot sustaining the
Union.
Andrew Johnson and bis advisers repudiated
the Sherman treaty, and demanded the sur
rer.der 01 the Rebel arms; fullma in the track of
the general law stipulating lor nothing but, the
personal salety of tho surrendered soldiers ot
the Rebellion. We w ant that loyal people, black
or white, should reconstruct and rule the Rebel
S'ntes; that loyalty to the Government, not a
mere lip profession, but an honest, earnest,
fulthfnl devotion to tbe Union and to liOerty,
which is theessenceof Union, should belounded
in the new governments which would be started
in the lately rebellious States. (Applause.) This
is the essence ot the Constitutional amendment
which Coi:cicss, after very great deliberation
tor the subject was a ver? importunt one, aud
very difficult one submitted lor approval.
They met to decide upon what conditions the
Rebel States should be reconstructed and re
admitted to power in the Union. Congress,
alter due deliueration, favored what is now
before the country us the Constitutional amend
ment, aud said these are tbe conditions, and the
couaitiuns that almost every man would have
proposed.
One ot our Generals, and a very good one,
was placed in tho year '03 'G4 at tho city or
Vicksburg. Some gentlemen came to him one
day and suid they hud a little cotton out here
that thev warned to get over. I will make it all
riubt. lie sent them away, and they kept coming
back until, finally, he wrote to Washington mat
he wanted to be taken away. First they offered
him ten thousand, but it filially increased to two
hundred ihousunu dollars. It I will bo a rascal,
they have got so near up to my mark that I dure
not' May any Jonger.
He discussed the question of the assumption
ot the Rebel debt at length, and said there was
not a logical reason which would admit sixty or
seventy Rebels into Congress that would not
iiiiv the Rebel debt. 1 do not believe you onnM
call together an audience In this city w ho would
say thev were aguinst the black man being a
mun. I pieler all men to have tho same rights
1 have. Borne us we have been through ifreater
peils, more trials, aud etruggles, I know we
bhall nat tuil in the conteat still betore us.
(Applause.)
1 know that the ark of freedom will move on
majestically umil the lime it thall reuch its
d eitined haven.
1 will believe I do believe T know that we
shall yet be united on the basis of universal
justice, universal freedom, and universal obedi
ence to law. in tUlll tope I beseech you men
ot Pennsylvania do your duty tor uB, for Your
selves, lor your ceuutry, and posterity, in the
btrugule now before you. (Lvng-coutiuued
npplausp.)
Mr. Greelov thpn resumed bis seat, when loud
calls were made lor Governor Curtin, who came
upon the stage while Mr. Greely was speaking
