=== Viltsibagli, I. 'RIDDLE sk CO., M3DAY MORNING 1864 - -- . . ' e hare the great pleasure, to-day, of 1 , presenting to our . t.ll the first Sissec.h in Congress of the flo 1 Tnonas itratritts. As we read with ' a" ' lof admiration end sympathy some of r eloquent passages, we do not wonder at is t some of our friends at Washington hat recently wri(ten to rm, that those who had the more enviable plea titre o f ~ were Impressed with the Striking characteristics of the gifted !speak sr—his rich acquisitions of knowledge, great argnmentatire skill, and ready com mand of alt his resources, bagetterwith that tory energy--that perfervidum ingemium— which fines andmoulds tends purpose what arm material he works upon. The Volunteer Syelem. The present spirit or . volluttaering, to gether with the liberal contributions of the people towards the paymead irf local boun ties, Is the most cheering and hopeful sign we have had Ohmo the glorious uprising of 1861, and indicates that our work is nearly dam It fact, judging from the aspect of things both on one side and that of the Re hellion, we think the men who are now going into service will have a short term, spa kat little fighting to do; for it is in; possible that the so-called Contbderate Government can maintain the struggle much longer, without money (for the Con federate script, worth only from five. to eight cents on the dollar can no longer be Balled money;) without financial credit ; without the confidence oven of the people who, three years ago, rushed many Into seeeszion ; without any reasonable hope of effecting •'a permanent separation of their States from the Union, and Witiunitibe'hope of saving their darling Institution, .for the sake of which they plunged Valor:4mi treason and made war upon a government which, for half a cm terey, hid petted and favored Them beyond their deserts. The dark pall of despair is feet settlingdown upon the hearts of their piiplit and their soldiers; and while the one Cilia are expressing, in everyway they dare to do it, their despondency and discontent, the other are embracing every possible chance to desert from the hopeless and . hated service. Every token, indeed, por tends a speedy downfall of the traitorous concern, and a glad return of a deceived and outraged people to the protection of the . old flag and the old laws. "Lot us see the old flag," said some women of Alabama to a column of soldiers on a weary march; and when it was encased and unfurled before their eye! they wept for joy. This little Incident showa us whore the hearts of the peopleof the South aro, and this kindling Saute of patriotism will consume, with a vengeance never dreamed of by its most earnest opposers, the accursed system that • has so long repressed their energies, kept them In moral lend political degradation, slain their people in a wicked war, and has now plunged them into a vortex of desola tion and rain. The desperate men who are ruling and snlning the South, know as well as we do whittle going on in the North; and when they see this new uprising of the people, this fresh irruption of volunteeis, this gen ercalsoutpouring of both men and money, they will begin to look out for some way of escape; for, mail and desperate u they are, they hue sense enough to know that they eitutot beer up against the exhaustless and unoonquirable North any longer. It is' this oonsideration that gives such iricalna . lab'svalue to this volunteer movement, and -; it is this that ought to prompt the people of 'evirieristrict in the country to furnish itsvota of men in that way. Even inv. ,- 4tre, devil as he 18,_cannot, but be appalled when he contrasts his atrociously cruel syr lom of replenishing. thil. army with ours; sad ell mankind will acknowledge the flenesset the two systems to the objects in View— , freemen Setting for liberty, slues , ftwilavery. so, keep the work going on. Volunteers began this war for the Union; volunteers have borne its teirible brunt, and let volttn tsars end it. The impending draft is right; because it equalizes,- as far as human es ! gulty aqd legislstion can equalize any thing, the great burden of saving the cone . try; but them is no reason why the people of any sub district should contribute their quote in that form.

This lea war measure, and not a revenue Men ai/M. The Government wants men and net money,- The latter has been furnished by the people with Unstinted' and ungrudging liberality; nay, with • prodigality which has surprised ourselves. and at which the world Mande amazed. I do not know how to value thetout heart or the strong arm of the Ante can 'freeman in the current imoney of th merchant. Ido not like the tratlio in menand muscle and sinew, whether it be white or black. Looking to the ex perience of other republics, I should great ly deprecate the conversion of the soldier of ours into a mercenary. Between men of American growth and training and. the richest of the metals I know no common standard of comparison. With me they are quantities incommensurable. When the Republio demands theservices of her chil dren, I know no answer they can make ex cept that of bane, that they are ready for the sacrifice. It is the answer which their - uncalculatitHig instincts prompted when the echoes. of the guns in Charleston harbor thrilled along their nerves, and half a mil lion of them spring to their arms at the first summons of the President to avenge the ineultto our deg; when the Very yearn- Inge of maternity were hushed, and the American, like the Spartan mother, arrayed her youngest born as though it tad been for the bridal, put the musket in his hands, and sent him out with the invintation of God's blessing upon his errand, and the in junction to do his.duty and come back upon his ehield, if such were the fortunesof war, but not without it It is the answer they would still make if their ardor were not chilled by the fatal and inglorious inaction, the wearisome delays, the inadequate ro sette, and the want of earnestness, which have distinguished so many of our com manders or, what is worse still, if their love of coun try was not overlaid aztdamoth end by the devilish suggestions of wicked counselors who have squatted at their ears and distilled into them the subtle venom of party. They have ceased, however, to make that answer. Enthusiasm was too weak to survive rebuffs and disappointments, while treason at home was bat too ready to make them the oc casion for -denunciations against the Govern ment and question. as to the rightfulness and the successful results of the war. It has be come, of course, a necessity to remind the backward of their duty, and to insist that it shall be performed. These arguments have prevailed, however, with many of the people who hid been accustomed to take counsel from the malcontents. They have held back accordleglynntil it has become indispensable to awaken them ta a sense of the obligation. which they owe to 'their country. Their ad. visors do not, however, deny the duty; so far as lip-service is concerned, there to an abund ance of it. But they insist that the perform. ante shall be a voluntary one, o?;‘ in other words, that it shall rest in their own discre tion. Like Faletalr, they would do nothing ~n compulsion. To compel • Democrat to Oght would be anti-republican, or if there is to be compulsion It mast be, upon the anther ity of a great casuist of the Bomish church, who her not read Bellarmine in vain and knows how to tarn • corner as adroitly u the original and inimitable Jack himself, • vol outer; one, • sort of compulsion in the Pick. sticklers sense. To compel him in any other way would be a violation of his prerogative ..s a freeman. A perfect liberty u the right of doing what we please, but never anything on compulsion. j Sod tow a word or two in sober earnest on the objection taken seriously here, and urged throughout the country, in relation tette le gitimacy of the draft. I need not apologise for speaking on that point. It is always ins portant to satisfy the people not only that a thing is law hut that it is right. It is always well to add the sanctions of conscience and the sense of duty to the mandates of the law• giver. Without this laws are practically Im potent. The "sic vole, sic jab.", ea pro ra n tio ee, btants" of an imperial reseript is not the argument for an American citizen. Ile want' more than it, and he wants it hen be cause immense pains have been taken to Cloud his perceptions and pervert his morel sense by representing the compulsory performance of the highest of his duties as a violation of his liberties. The oracles of the Opposition have proclaimed—their highest legal authorities In Proinsylrania, in the exercise of a Jurisdiction heretofore unknown, have decided—that the act of the last session was unootuithutional Men squally trusted by them here have in sisted that its principle was anti-republician. It is iTP 9II -suts therefore, to Inquire whether these things are Ito—whether there is any thing her, to ardherise these imputations or to excuse even a retaetant.submtssion to a measure which Is essential to the safety Of the' nation and has been made necessary by -the entracte of the very men who now complain *fit. _ _ I do not propose to enter into objection. of detail arising out of the pendiar femme. of the law or to argue the question upon merely technical or professional gonads. These are for the courts. This I. a higher forum, and the objection made to the principle—radical as it Is—an appeal front the lawyer to the pub licist, from the courts to the people. It is the statesman who must decide it, and not the judge. Is it true, then, that a compulsory levy of troops—a conscription, if you Ideate—ln the extremity oft State is antl.repubilcan in prin. dple, or, in other words, at war with the spir it of our Institutions and the genius and char acter of this Government? It has been so announced o4this door,on authority supposed to be conclusive, and has gone to the country without contradiction.. It mu a challenge of the law (rem.* higher point than the Consti tution. It was not the assertion to terms that the law was to variance with the Constitution, but in effect that the Constitution itself was not republican, and did not conform to the' fundamental idea on which It rested. It. wee the proclamation of a higher law which the anti:miry "to raise and support armlet" had impinged upon. Well, I am no higher-law man, except so far as the consideration of the publio safety or the nation's life may make me ao. lam not ashamed or afraid to roes pia public! the maxim of the wiles po ph se y W 65 /provision of 5003 et mutate . . constitution of republican Bo to in which in the judgment of one y age was the and profoundest statesmen of an as the sew swum of all its grandeur as well Led a Mots• enter, edits stability, which area cell, for the torship for times of great public p !hooted so reason that such a power moat be the'extremities to which every litate is subject, and that where It fa wanting ttbecomes twee.. eery to violate the constitution—which is al ways of bad ersiople—in ordain the salvation of the State: Per the rake of . iriaateri olearnese, I quote the pelage itself, translated by me from the French version in default of =English one, of the "Trestles on the Republic," by Mach iavelli "Mb part orate constitution of Rome disarms to be remarked, and ranked in Abe number of Mom which contribute the mart to the greatness of its em• vice. • Without en Institution orals nature, a State annot acatiebnt with great difficulty from extra ordinary convulsions." • ••••• • • • • "It follow. from Ibis that all republics must hare In their cousUtutions alike establishment.

It is not disputed, as I understand, by any• body here, that the Government is entitled to the military services of all its citizens when they are needed for its defense. The objec tion is only that a compulsory levy in anti repubNcon. If this be true, then the idea of such a thing as a republican government Is the wildest of chimera.. Admitting the duty, the right to enforce It is a corollary, a neces sary consequence, in this case as in all other.. The notion of any government at all presup poses .npremeoy, subordination, and oor,- straint. No government ever did or ever can rest upon the mere voluntary principle. All the duties of the citizen, except these merely moral ones that are said to be of im lerfect obligation—all that are political at east—rest upon the idea of coercion. That is the principle of every law. That is the import of the whole judicial machinery with which we are surrotueded. The posse conlitatua Itself is nothing more nor less than a compul sory levy, an army Improvised to execute the laws. When the time arrives—which will not be until.the millennium foreshawdowed by the prophet, and several years after the modern Democracy *hall have died out like the extinct monsters of the earlier geological epochs—when men shall perform their duties voluntarily, there will be no further occasion for either government or laws. The notion that the mob of New 'York, and the unnat• nral symputhizers with the rebellion every where, shall not be compelled to defend the Government that protests them in all their rights and endows them with the unwonted privilege of governing other people. Is bet the extension of the argument of the late At • tamey General of the United States, and tee reporter of Its Supreme Court, that there could be no coercion of Slates, and that this great Government war without even the power of self-defense, was entirety helpless against the parricide, and meet uncover its bottom, or wrap Its robes around it and submit to death without a struggle when ever the murderous blow was aimed by We band,. of its own children. That was accord ing to programme. Both have the same pur pose and meaning. That would have crowned the work of the traitors with immediate ens. This is a slower poison, which would leave the difpnee of the nation to the loyal Unionist initte geld, and transfer the direc tion of the Government to the hands of the auxiliaries of the rebellion, who choose "to kin my lady peace at horns ;" who know chit they can serve the cense they lore with more effeet and greater safety hero by affecting loy , alty, misrepresenting the designs of the Gov ernment, discouraging volunteering, and de nouncing compulsory levies of mete, than by taking their places openly in the armies of the confederacy. I do not know a man of them whii Is not now an ...unconditional Unionist,' provided ho can have "the Union as it was," which he knows to be impossible, whether w• sneered or fail, or treat, as he desires us to do, and hopes to bring about by cherishing the disease, preserving the cause of the disunion, and declining to employ the most necessary and effective weapon which Providence has placed in our hands for compelling the event ual restoration of the Union Itself. Thank God I the in•tincts of the people, the l.i al army at home, have revolted at the special plea of the attorney, and even converted him at the Late elections into the noisiest of patriots and the professed advocate of the vigorous prosecution of the war; that in to say, 00 peace principles, and provided you will re fuse to alioro the willing negro or maps/ the reluctant and recalcitrant Democrat to tight The fear is, In viewed the well-known Army sentiment. that it would change the very na ture of the latter by showing him the realities of war and making him a radical, or, in other words, an earnest man. We have the authority of olio of the apostles of the new Democracy now holding a seat on ids doer, If the newspapers have not mi.- represented him, for the opinion publicly no pressed in the great pew convention at New York, that a war Democrat is an impossible thing; and that any man who would draw sword here in such a quarrel—l mean on this aide of it—ls no hotter than a Black Republi can. And so it 11 that, while all the Demoo rag of Butler and Barnside and Hooker and other fighting generals of that stamp, who have piOlad that they were In earneat, Las failed to shelter them from the denunciations of the rebel papers In Richmond and New York, the nun-combatant qualitiea of the grave-digger of the Chickahominy and the loiterer at Bull Run hare made him the idol of the Democracy In both thou, capitals. if the gentleman from Kentucky, who we. used a few days ago by his culleaguee with infidel ity to his pledges to vote for a war Democrat, had adverted to the sentiment to which I have just referred, he might have answered that a war Democrat was a myth—a personage even more apecryphal than Prater John or tho man with the iron mask. If it be true, however, that a compulsory levy of men for the protection of the Severn meet or the enforcement of its laws Is anti republican, then I say again that republican government is Just as imposeible a thing as a war Democrat The nation which cannot command the military service, of its pop le has no guarantee of life, and must inevitably perish in its first formidable convulsion. To presume' that they will all rash to its stand ard at the first summons, and that they will adhere to it alike through good and 11l for tune, alike through ennehine and through storm, is . to suppose in the face of our present experience that it contains no bold traitors who will lift their hands against It In battle, no cowardly miscreant, who, with prefeseiono of loyalty on, their lips, will adopt the safer policy of skulking from Its defense, or aiding and encouraging those who are attempting to overthrow It. The time was when this ser vice was a privilege of rank or fortune ; when the soldier served without wages, although he derives his name from the idea of pay, and When the craven who refuted to respond to the summons of hie country mu visited with the dire anathema which le so well parapitras • ed by the genius of the immortal Scott, and Rods its climacteric in the imprecation, " Woe to the traitor, woe I" A greater than he has remarked that " the age of chivalry is gone, and the age of sophistera and economists has succeeded." It was not so at the commence• meet of this robe lion. I happened to be at the seat of government of Pennsylvania when the news of the bom bardment of Sumter came over the electric wires, and shook its capital as with an earth quake throe, and then aped on lie tiory errand along the Susquehanna, and the Delaware, and the limpid Allegheny, until it reached the distant shore of the groat lake whiob bathes her northweetern confines. The fiery cress that pieced from hand to hand and gathers/the clansmen of the hills around the banner of their chief never so traveled, never lighted such a cotalegration as was kindled by that message. Before the setting of en o the: sun a hundred thousand Pennsylvania men were begging for the privilege of laying down their lives to thedelenee of the insulted flag of their father.. The political managers of the Democratic party who had bargained against coercion and pledged themselves that Pennsylvania would take aide. with the re hellions States wore appalled by the-demon stration, and slunk away from the public gale which would have blasted them. It was only when reverses overtook our arms—revolves which were 'beam:monsoon of the PIM aeons fal effort to propitiate themselves by taking counsel with and employing meta of the same typo of thought.—that they ventured to re eantshaer I lt e t m d o to an t s i r p d . : t o y s e i t i os t teet;leofyi f Eta:ant a Republican Administration was unlit to conduct the war, which they reinforced by the argument that It was obliged to borrow its general. almost exclutrely from the Demo cratic party. If adranru made neceseary after such a demonstration it wt, through their nom. If it has proved ineffective or unpopular, it I. bellow' they have endeavored to make it so. ' The country knows how the question was dealt with by the Democratic authorities of New Turk.

Their constitutional scruples will not allow them to do anything for the salvation of this nation. They have found no difficulty hero tofore in discovering in that instrument ev. ery power thnt was required to further the in i,reets of the divine Institution. They had uo difficulty in regard to the Louisiana or Florida purchases; none as to the annexation of Texas; none as to the assumption of its debts; none as to the purchase or leisure, at the expense of another war like the Mexican if necessary, of the gem of the Antilles. When the attempt is made, however, to ex tract anything valuable from that Instrument for the interests of humanity or the preser vation of the nation's life, kis no better than a espy[ atortenes—without vitality, full of oh stmetlons, impotent for good, but alive all over, In all its members, and actively omnipo tent, too, fur mischief.
