THE LUXEMBOURG TREATY.
EXl'ECTKD RATIFICATION OF THE ACTION OF TUB
PEACH COKGKEKS.
Queen's Hotel, London, May 11. The arti
cles of treaty of settlement of the Luxembourg
question, drafted by the representatives of
the great powers assembled in the Peace Con
gress in this city, have been engrossed in
proper diplomatic form, and it is expected,
indeed it may be said is certain, that this
important international State paper will be
duly signed and ratified to-day.
THE WARASPECT.
FRANCE, (1KRMAKY, AND RUSSIA STILL ARMING
VICTORIA TO MAKE -ANOTHER EFFORT FOR
PEACE AN ENGLISH PLAN OF DISARMAMENT
AND A GENERAL CONGRESS, KTC.
Qubkm's Hotel, London, May 11. Notwith
standing the apparently highly satisfactory
issue of the Peace Congress held in this city,
and the pleasing solution of the Luxembourg
question by treaty arrangement, fears are
entertained and generally expressed that war
has been merely postponed by the work of the
diplomatists.
Preparations for war are still actively car
ried on in France, Germany, Russia, and
Greece.
It is said to-day that, before the final closing
and dissolution of the Peace Congress, a pro
posal is likely to be addressed by England to
all the powers inclined to belligerent action,
in which Queen Victoria will recommend and
urge a general disarmament. Should the
English proposal be entertained, a congress of
all the great powers will possibly assemble
here in order to secure its formal adoption
and execution recording to a uniform plan.
Should the proposal be made, even by the
Queen of Great Britain, it is not likely to
result in a success in attaining the object con
templated the maintenance of peace.

WAR VESSELS ORDERED IN TUB UNITED

Athens, May 11. The fourth military con
scription ordered during the present year has
been put in force, and results in giving an in
crease of thirty thousand men to the Greek
army. The condition of the navy and actual
strength of the kingdom at sea engage also the
serious consideration of the Government.
Seven new war vessels have just been ordered
in the TTnited States and England. Large en
rolments of seamen have been contemplated
for some time past, and are now in process of
completion.
PRUSSIA.
DEATH OF THB TJK1TED STATES MINISTER IN BERLIN.
Berlin, May 11. The Hon. Joseph A.
"Wright, of Indiana, more familiarly known as
Governor Wright, United States Minister to
the Court of Prussia, did in this city at 8
o'clock this morning, of dropsy.
Mr. Wright had been ailing severely for
Borne months past, and laid at the point of
death a few days since. He rallied, however,
for a short time, and was regarded as approach
ing a convalescence which would permit his
removal to the waters of Carlsruhe. He com
menced to Bink last night, and expired thia
morning.
Mr. Wright was. I believe, very acceptable.
both personally and in his official capacity, to
the King or J'russia ana ms auinei.

THE TRUSSIAN PARLIAMENT SPEECH OK THB
KIUj THE UNION OF NORTH AND SOUTH GER
MANY.
The ODenine of the Prussian Diet for an ex
traordinrv session took place in Berlin, April
29, in the White Hall. About two hundred
and fifty members were present. In the
diplomatic box were the representatives of
England, Russia, the Hanse Towns, Hesse
Darmstadt, and Saxony. The court box was
unoccupied. King William was accompanied
by the Crown Prince, Prince riwenoktharles,
Prince Albrecht, Prince Alexander, and Prince
George of Prussia, Prince Augustas of Wur
temburg, and Duke William of Meoklenburg
Schwerin. His Majesty, whe was received
with cheers on entering the hal, delivered the
following speech from the throne;
Illustrious, Noble, and Honorable Gentlemen of
both Houses of the Diet: A conxtltutton of the North
Germany Confederation, ty wblcn Ilia united aud
vigorous development ol the nation appears secured,
baa Issued from the deliberandi of the Parliament,
to wblcb the Prussian people sent us representatives
Id conformity with too law approved by you. I have
summoned yon around Diy tbroue to submit this con
stitution to your decision. The tank of national unity,
which tb Government commenced with your co-ope-xatlon,
Is now to be concluded by your assent. Upon
this twaia the protection ol lederal territory, the cure
oi common riguia auu oi tue prosperity 01 me people,
will henceforth be guaranteed by the collective popu
lation of Northern (iermaoy aud their government
u lirm community. , . , .....
By tbe Introduction of the Federal Constitution the
privileges ef the representatives ot Individual states
will be subject to unavoidable restrictions In all those
department wbicn will be In luture subordinate to
the general development. But the people Itaeir will I
not have to forfeit any of tbe rights It has nllberte
noseesaed. It will merely transfer their maintenance
to us representatives In tbe more extended cgmonu-
WThi'consent of the freely elected deputies of tbe en
tire people will still be requisite to every law In tbe
North German Confederation. Provision has been
made by tbe federal Constitution In all respects that
those rights, tbe exercise of which the various repre
sentations abandon In favor ol the new oommunlty of
shall be transferred In M MMH K U
tnwJ i'r.lMi.
Tie serore foundation of national Independence,
power, am prosperity shall go hand In hand with the
development of German rights and constitutional
Institution. My Government entertain tbe sshu
ranre that both Houses oi the Diet, correctly nppre
rlHtlng the urgent national neocsilty of speedily set
ting the tank b lore us. will readily afford their a.
smtanre to Its completion.
Gentlemen, the newly-formed Confederation at
present only includes the States of North Germany,
but an Intimate national community will always unite
them with the Mouth German states. The tirm rela
tions my Government concluded for offensive and
defensive purposes with those Mates as early as last
autumn will have to be transferred to the enlarged
North German Commonwealth by special treaties.
'1 he vivid ccnnclonMie-s of the Houlh German Gov
ernments and populations of the dangers ot German
alHHensiiin, and the necessity or firm national union,
which constantly finds more decided expression
throtiKhnnt the whole ot Germany, will asslwt to hasten
the solution of that Important task. The united
strength of the nation will be entitled and be compe
tent lo guarantee to Germany the blmslnRS nf peace
and elleclual protection of her rights and her Interest.
With this asHtirance niv Government will devote
Itself to averting any Interruption to European peace
by every means compatible with the honor and the
Inlerfst of the Fatherland. Tbe German people, how
ever strong Its unity, will be able calmly to five the
vicissitudes of i be luture, I' you, gentlemen, will aid
in completing the great work of national nnlon with
that patriotism which has always been displayed lu
Pruss'aln serious t.uies.
There was frequent applause during the de
livery ot the speech. At its conclusion Herr
von Forkenbeck called for cheers for the King,
who then quitted the hall. Count Bismark
then declared the Diet open. A sitting of both
Houses takes place to-day.
A council of the Prussian Ministers, under
the Presidency of the King, met in Berlin
April 2'J. The Crown Prince and the mem
bers of the military and civil cabinets were
present. A court dinner was subsequently
given in honor of the birthday of the Czar of
Russia.
In the sitting'of the Chamber of Deputies,
Herr von Forkenbeck opened the session with
three cheers for the King.
COURT mSMARK'S PLAN.
Vienna Ajn-U 20) Correspondence London Times.
The enemies of Count Bismark, who are as nume
rous lu Austria now as they were In I'rus.tla and Ger
many a year ago, accuse that statesman of acting
habitually on the Talleyrand maxim that speech
was given tomau to er tble blin to disguise his real
sentiments.
At all events It would be rash to place too much
confidence In the sincerity of his utterances, but it is a
positive fact that, on tbe i!2d of last month, the King
of Prussia's birthday. Count Bismark stated to one of
the personages present at Berlin on the occasion, that
he considered a war between Prussia and France to
lip iinuvnldHhln I tLnti.mtitirhltrh'i. TT raIiI tiirt.ltnr.
that, lor his own part, he wished to postpone the war I
for another year, as tbe military organization ot the
newly annexed provinces was still deficient, and the
armies of the Booth German Slates have not yet been
reformed on the Prussian model. It was true that
within a year the French would be armed with the
t'hnssepot rifle, but that uuless an army bad been
well drilled and accustomed to use a breech loader,
the new weapon would be lound an Inconvenience
Instead of an advantage, on account ot the proneneas
oi the men to waste their ammunition.

JUDGE KELLEY IN NEW ORLEANS.
EE ADDRESSES A GRAND MASS MEETING OF UNION

PEOFLE PRESENT, ETC.
New Orleans, May 12. New York could
hardly have made a finer display upon any
loyal occasion than tnlH lately Rebel city did
last night at the mass meeting; In Lafayette
(Square to bear Congressman Kelley, of Penn
sylvania, speak. Since the bloody riots of July,
18o6, there was never such an assemblage in tbe
streets. Fully ten thousand persons were pre
sent. They came in wurd clubs by tbe hundreds
and thousands from all quarters of tbe city, with
flags, transparencies, and bands. The platform
was decorated al 1 round wit h Un ited H tales flags,
in silk aud bunting, and lanterns hanging be
tween them. The front was festooned with
wreaths, intertwined with magnolia blossoms
which tilled the air with perfume. About four
hundred persons ocoupled the platform, em
bracing many of the leading cltlzensand several
ladies. Kocketa and other fireworks In showers
cleaved the sky. lit up by a calm Southern
moon. Tbe scene was grand in the extreme,
and to those who remember the stormy condi
tion of society here a year ago, it must, nave

tendered him by the Governor and Mayor, and
rejoiced that be was at last able to visit New
Orleans, and all other poitionsof his native
land, for be, like themselves, was now free to
carry his conscience and convletions whither
be pleased as a citizen of the United States. He
could now call all tbe country his home. The
peculiar system of labor in the South had con
tracted her civilization. She had shut out
friends who would delight to visit and sit with
ber citizens at their hearthstones. She had dis
couraged immigration, and refused access to the
Inventions in science and art of which the
North availed itself.
Tbe North had many great cities, two of them
rivalling l'arls and Loudon lu wealth and popu
lation, while their beautiful city, past which the
waters of sixty thousand miles of rivers flow
was tbe only great one In the South, lie con
trasted the railroads of the two sections, to the
great advantage of the North in speed and
cheapness, all of which was due to tbe isolation
in which the South had been enclosed in order
to preserve the divinity of slavery. When the
decree of 177(1 proclaimed thatall men were born
equal, the law was uttered that was to fashion
tbe Institutions of our people. They were
ever true to that law; for they controlled the
States at the time they framed the Constitu
tion of the United States, and thus every free
man, without regard to color, was a voter in
every State save South Carolina. Referring to
tbe fact that until Calhoun broached the heresy,
In 1847, that slavery in the territories was not a
subject of Congressional legislation, he traoed
the slavery agitation to the Kansas troubles,
and he recalled the vote upon Yancey's motion
In the Baltimore Convention of 1H48. which was
similar to that of Calhoun's In 1847, a vote ol 21U
navs to 86 veas. What a change during tbe
twelve succeeding years I After that vote the
Democratic leaders of the North assured you
that If you would strike for your supposed
rights, they would stand by you on the battle
field. How were their pledges kept? The
whole North gave you these soldiers, whose
names are known tiustavus W. Smith aud
Mansfield Lovell. . .
They gave you besides what the little girl pro

pledges kept? In what city of the Worth did

Northern States was there armed collision, and
from which of the Northern Slates did men
swarm to swell theranks of your armies? So far,
history will held the North, especially the
Lemocratlo party there, responsible for open
ing the way to rebellion. It had kept the mass
other people In profound and degrading Igno
rance. Tbe laws of each State prohibited by
penal statute the education of the slave popu
lation. This was Inevitable. Intelligence aud
calture are incompatible with slavery: tbe

between you and the leaders of the Democratic
party of the North, but for myself and tne Re
publican party, I may say, shake not your gory
locks at ns, for you cannot say we did It. Hap
pily these things belong to the past. In all this
broad land no man owns his brother man. You
men of color, citizens of Ioulslana, who wear
tbe livery of Africa's burnished nun, give
thanks unto Ood that He baa turned and over
turned until the humblest among you stands
erect In majesty ol freeman hood, the equal
of your fellow man before the laws of your
country as yon are before the beneficent Father
of all. He guided the pen of Abraham Lincoln
while writing the proclamation of emancipa
tion, and they who enacted the Civil Rights
bill, aud the Military bill to secure the enforce
tnentof its provisions, went reverently to II im
for counsel, and recognized lUi noverelgn pre
sence in their mldat. My while fcllow-citl.ona,
let me say to you that you are charged with a
duty grander than is often confided to a gene
ration of men. You are to unite with thoHe
whom through life you have been taught to
Despise as an inferior race, In organizing a parly
in Iioulslana In harmony witn the great Its
publican party of the North.
As an evidence of the folly of endeavoring to
cut themselves off from t he national Govern
ment, he pointed to the ruined levees and the
destruction spread over the land. The repairs
of levees was a national question. Neither the
people nor the Hlate kept them in good order.
One State made good levee law, and others
made bad ones. One State kept them in good
order, others did not; and the neglect or one
brought destruction on the whole. He pledged
himself to use his Influence In Congress to
obtain an appropriation for the repair of
levees, provided they carried out the Recon
struction luw in good faith, and did Justice to
Ihe noyro. After a few remarks as to the cer
tain prosperity ol New Orleans, the speaker
concluded thus: Rest not your experiment
upon the embodiment in constitution or law of
a Uk tract principles, but see lo It that they are
embodied practically. If you rise to the prompt
accomplishment of this great work1, the day of
strife will have passed, and the American
sword may be beaten into a ploughshare, and a
nation that in its Infancy put into the Held and
kept there for four years, during which the
bloodiest and best contested battles of
history were fought, armies each num
bering more than a million men, need fear no
foreign war. Let us, then, not grieve over the
pant, but, baling no jot of heart or hope, move
onward in our great work, and the struggling
millions of Kurope will find encouragement lu
our labors, and innumerable posterity will rise
to revere our country's flag, to ball those who
fell martyrs in its maintenance and those who
through the civil strife completed their work,
blessed among men. (Long and continued applause.)
Resolutions were adopted charging Andrew
Johnson with the responsibility of the July
riots, favoring impenchment, and heartily eu
dorsing the course of (Jeueral Sheridan.
Rev. Mr. Conway made a stirring speech, and
one of the largest and most orderly meetings
ever held In New Orleans dispersed without
the slightest confusion or disturbance, the
clubs mnrchlng off past the Republican news

Kelley is slopping, cheetlng lustllv.and waving

SENATOR WILSON'S SOUTHERN TOUR.
BE IS MET AT MONTGOMERY, ALA., BY SOUTHERN
6PBAKERS VOTE OF TUB NEGROES TAKEN AT
THB CLOSE OF THE DERATE THEY DECLARE
UNANIMOUSLY FOR THE REPUBLICAN PARTY.
Montgomery, Ala., May 12. On the trip from
Atlanta lo Montgomery, on Friday, Senator
Wilaon had tbe opportunity of looking Into
the faces of white audiences. If not a relief to
the sight, It was a pleasant variation. The
trains stopped for two hours at West Point,
on the Chattahoochee river, which has become
historical as the place where the last engage
ment in the late war was fought. Tbe earth
works were carried by uenerai Wilson's
cavalry after Lee's surrender.
When the preence of Senator Wilson became
known the usual request for a speech was made
and Mr. Wilson assented, for he rarely refuses
such a request. He was couducted to a loft
alternately used for cotton storing and travel
ling theatricals, aud there be held forth for an
hour to about two hundred whiles and some
dozen blacks. He was catechized somewhat
about anti-negro laws and customs in the
North. He admitted there were such, but pro
mised reform. Nothing offensive was said or
done on either side, and the threat of condi
tional confiscation was not hinted at.
ARRIVAL AT MOMTGOMERY, ALA.
On his arrival in Montgomery, accompanied
by General Swayne, Military Commandant, he
was escorted lo the hotel by a procession of
negroes, with music and torchlights.
esterday lie addressed the people here from
the eastern portico of the State House. The
negroes were present lu large numbers. The
colored women seem as much interested lu
politics as Hie men, and always attend these
meetings so do the children, all the way up
from bubyhood. There were probably one hun
dred whites present. They came generally
through curiosity to see and hear Wilson.
MBi WILSON'S SfBKCK.
"During the past two yeais, he said, Che people of the
Toyul mates, who poured out their money ana the blood
of their children like autumnal rains for the preserva
tion of the life of the nation, menaced by u gigantic
rebellion, bad sought, not to humiliate, not to dishonor
the people ot the Kebel States who bad fought tor lour
years with a valor and persistency tbatcommauded
their respect, but to make secure the rights and privi
leges ot the millions made tree. Abraham Lincoln, the
dearest name in tbe 19tb century. In bis Immortal pro
clamation of emancipation, bad pledged, before the
cations of tbe earth and the God of heaven, the
faith of tbe country that the liberties of these eman
cipated bondmen should be maintained by tbe autho
rity ot the Government of the United mates. That
E ledge, made In a solemn moment of the country's
istory, registered by the recording angel, lived In
the hearts ot the loyal people of the Republic. They
resolved, come what might to them, they would
struggle on.
He trusted that Alabama would put ber govern
ment In the bands of men who would build upon the
policy adopted by Congress, and that she would send
Into the National councils men who would feel, speak,
and vote with the men who bad saved their couutry
and made their country lorever a free country, lie
did cot speak merely as a partisan. He believed that
patriotism required Uiat the people of tbe Htates
lately In rebellion should take their places with one
or the other of the great National political organi
sations of tbe country, and that sectional parties,
sectional objects and purposes, should disappear
forever. Tbe great Unloa Republican party, accept
ing the sebllme creed of human equality, was the
party of patriotism, of equal liberty. Impartial Jus
tice, of education, of material Intellect, and moral
development. During tbe twelve years of lu exist
ence It bad been the champion of a uulted republic
It had carried tbe nag and kept step to; the music of
the Union. It came into being to preserve the vast
territories of tbe republic tree, and made the whole
country free. It had lilted the country up so high in
power, hi llvoor anJ " . " commandea the
respect asd admlratloirof Iht u2M"?, RUi be lovers
of republican liberty all over the globe war Quoting
eMM vv'jiuuvuuiug uvr example, yvnaierer inigut
come, be bad uo doubt that the men who had
carried tbe country through the last six years Would
bereatter tor years to come control tbe pulley and
direct the counoilaof the republic. The men Who had
fought against the country to maintain slavery, and
sympathised wltb those who fougnt against tbe coun
try, could not expect hereafter to control the country
they bad struggled to destroy. The power ot the
Southern Slate bad passed away with their Ideas.
Tbe Government of the oountry was passing rapid! v
from the people ot the Atlantic States, North and
South, to tbe.peoule west of tbe Allegheny mountains,
who were radical radical. He tuought, however,
that within two or three years thoie States lately in
Rebellion would be the most radical Slates of the
Union. Tbe Deeds or tHaies require inauy changes,
and much radical legislation. There would be here
a radical progressive party, and a reactionary that
would linger among tbe recollections of tbe past. It
required but little foresight to see that the progres
sive, radical, reformatory men of the late slave hold
ing Stales would control the luture. There were those
who tbougbt that tbe Government of the United
States and tbe people of the North were Impoalug
bard conditions upon these States.
lie trusted In God that the people of all these States
lately in rebellion would strive to bury the bitter
memories of tbe past conflicts, eater upon a new
systrnu, turn their backs upon their fatal polloles of
the past, and move on In harmony wltb the people of
the loyal States, and that tbe men of the North, and
of tbe South, ol the Kaat and of the West, burying
out of sight the piejudlces and the passions engen
dered by tbe ''irrepressible conflict" between freedom
and slavery, would hereafter stand sboolder to
shoulder and contend only In generous rivalry for a
united republlo and for the equal rights and equal
privileges. In name and In fact, of all the citizens of

MR. CLANTON'S SrxRCH,
Then J. H. Clan ton, a prominent lawyer of this city,
and lormerlj General In the Confederate army
accepted tb general challenge onered by Mr. Wilson,
llesaiillie came at the requestor several colored
men, tut without priaratliin. Many of the things
mlt rfd iy Ihe hpnatnr he admitted were true, but he
had Insinuated many things that were untrue. He
(Clanton) had ben alwsvs a friend to Ihe blank men:
nany of those around " hlin knew hi in torn hH
luiancy. and kuew that be had always befriended
i' i in. llnd he toue into the war. ai Mr.
V IlKin had Intimated, lor their slavery T No. He hail
t" l ll.e t-outherii people that- the day they seceded
slavery w:is gone, but rebellion wai freedom lo the
slave. He reminded them that he had during the war,
In the theatre at Montgomery, advocated emancipa
tion and the enlisting and arming of the slaves. The
hemttor Itom Massachusetts hud told them they owed
their llheriy to the armies of the North ; hut that was
untrue. Years aftertheeorameneenieutot the war Pre
sident Lincoln: hndloflered Jto lhc;Confelerate state
that If they would comeback Into the Union slavery
would never lie disturbed In the States. Would the
Senator deny thst ? He could not. It the Rebels had
then gone hack Into the Union, as President Lincoln
wanted them, I tie colored men of the Koulh would
he slaves to-oav; they therefore did not owe their
liberties to the Republicans or to the Rebels, out to
God, the giver of all good and perfect gilts.
He was for the Union himself. He had followed
the old flag from Vera Crus to Mexico, and the
saddest day of his life was when be had lo turn
ai; in list it. He always opposed secession, hut after
wards Joined his poople, because he thought It was his
duty to do so. Hut he had never fired a gun lor the
eake of slavery, and. tbe benutor hud never lired one
against it.
He reviewed the history of slavery In this country,
to prove that the Ktiglish lirst, and the Yankees
atterwards, were responsible for Its establishment.
He told them their true interests consisted in sil
lier lug lo the white people In the communities where
they lived. They would all have to live together and
be Hurled together, and therefore he who would stir
tip political and other dissensions between them was
the direct enemy of both races. He reminded them
thHl the North was exacting a hfavy tax
on their Industry the cotton tax: and that in
the Northern States, wlier" their race hud
been tree for generations, colored people were
subjected to all sorts of political and social disabili
ties. Those politicians from the North were trying
to deceive the colored people, and would desert tlietu
when the danger came, as they had done In Aew
Orleans, where sixty blacks were killed by the mob.
In conclusion, he urged them to vote for those men
whom they knew to be honest, and who had proved
themselves their friends, and not to be led astrav tv
political adventurers trom the North. (Shoots lor the
Union.)
. The colored people heard Clanton with patience
hut his arguments had evidently uo effect upon them.
they constantly broke out Into s bouts tor the "Unlou.'i
MR. WILSON'S KEI'LY.
Then Senator Wilson replied to General Clanton.
speaking lor nearly another hour, recounting the va
rious stsges In the slavery agitation, and remarking
In regard to eBCh that he hsd never known the gen
tleman, Clanton, to have taken the side of treedoui.
These hits were much relished by the colored
people, who laughed, cheered, and encouraged the
spea ker.
MR. TKLDER'B SPEECH.
Then A. C. Felder. formerly ajudge, and afterwards
a coloLel In the Confederate army, but who since
voted lu tbe Alabama Sena e fur the Conitt
tullonnl amendment, and who Is thoroughly
Identified with the Union cause, got a chance of
replying to Clanton, who had lu the course of
his speech Indulged in a fling against him. lie
turned tbe laugh against Clanton by declaring tbut
if Clanton bad thought he wus not fighting for
slavery during thewar.be (Felder) was certain that
be was. If Clanton was In favor of emancipation,
why had be not emancipated bis own slaves? He
(Felder) had held on to bis as long as he could, but tbe
Federal Government had given them their freedom.
There was nothing now for teoslble men here to do
but to conform lo the new state ot things and range
themselves with tbe party of Ireedom. (Cheers.)
VOTE TAKEN AMONG THE COLORED riCOn.K.
It was between 5 and 6 o'clock when tbe meeting
commenced, but tbe sun had sunk la the West and
tbe moon bad been looking down on the scene lor
over two hours before General Sway ne announced the
meeting adjourned, first taking the sense of the
colored people as to who wfre for and who against
the Republican parly; the responses showed that all

RICHMOND.
TtiCHMONn, Va., May 12. After service at the
African church to-night the preacher spoke a
few words of good advice to the congregation,
urging them to refrain from all disorderly or
riotous demonstrations. He closed by intro
ducing Judge Underwood, who said Genera
Schofleld bad told him to-day there was a possi
bility of a riot being made by the negroes to
morrow and that if there was he would plant
cannot and sweep the street with grape shot.
He urged Ibem to be peaceful and quiet In their
demeuBor, and declared that they had gained
their present position by good conduct, und
could gain nothing by violence and insult. He
had answered for them as his friends, and had
assured the General that there would be no dis
turbance on their part. He introduced Mr.
Horace Greeley.
JMr. Greeley said that he did not believe there
wns much fear of a riot, but if they assembled
on the streets twenty at a place it would give
occasion for interference with them, aud if a
telegram could be made that there had been a
collision between the soldiers aud tbe colored
people, It would go all over the country, and
hurt their brothers at some place where they
were not so well protected as they are here. He
bud been rpoken of aa a friend of the colored
people, hut he was not their friend any more
than he was the friend of every people that Is
oppretsed Just as lie had spoken for them when
down-trodden, so at the close of the war he had
spoken for the other side, lest they should be
punished for things of which they were not
guilly. When the wild cry of vengeance arose
after the murder of our great President, he ad
vised them to he as modest In their triumph as
they had been patient in their suffering, prom
ising that their reward would be great aud
lasting. .
