has determined upon theprecise point of departure
of their said branch road from the Missouri nver,
and located the same, as described in the accom
panying report of the Secretary of the Interior,
which point is within the limits designated in the
order ot November last; and inasmuch as that
order is not.of record In any of the Executive De

m .„. . TUB RESOLUTIONS,
Bnl1 ’ Est l*’ theu read the following
At this, the first anti vers ary of the National
union Club of Philadelphia, we deem it proper to
reaffirm the principles upon which oar organiza
tion was established, and under which we will
be guided and governed m the future: therefore,
Resolved) That the present infamous rebellion
was commenced and is still prosecuted without
provocation and without reason.
That as slavery was the cause, the de
struction thereof must and ought to be the conse
quence of this nefarious attempt to destroy the
proudest fabric of free Government that human
wisdom ever consummated.
Thatwnilst we entertain a feeling of
sympathy for the deluded people of the South, we
demand that such justice shall be meted out to the
leaders as will preclude the possibility of another
such rebellion forever.
That the demand for peace on any
other terms than the conquest ot the rebels in arms,
and their subjugation to the laws, is treason of the
most insidious and atrocious character, and calls
lor and receives bur most unqualified condemna
tion and contempt.
itoo/red, That we advocate such amendment to
the Constitution as will forever exclude involun
tary servitude, save for ciime, in all the States
and Territories of the Union.
Resolved , That no man or set of Tpen secure
our suffrages and support who are not pledged to
maintain the onenesa and indivisibility of tha
Union.
Resolved, That the policy of President Lincoln
and his Admix istration meets our entire sanction
and approbation, and commends itself tc the ap
proval ol all true men, of whatever shade ol no
itieal faith. *
Resolved) That we advocate and insist upon such
change in the organic law of Pennsylvania as will
secure to the soldier of the Republic in arms for
his country, hia nght to the free exercise of the
elective franchise win rerer duty may place him,'
even though it be beyond the confines of his own
State or neighborhood.
Resolved) That in Governor Andrew G. Curtin
we recognize the true statesman and pure patriot,
whose devotion to the interests of our State «w«*
nation has won lor him a name which will stand
high on the roll, of our country’s patriots, and
whose devotion to the welfare of those who have
periled their dearest interests to save the nation’s
Life deserves the lasting gratitude of the people.
The resolutions were unanimously adopted.
YICB PRESIDENT HAMLIN ON TOTS STAND.
Hon. Hannibal Hamlin, Vice President ol the
United States, was then introduced and spoke as
follows: ?
Mr. President and members of the National
Union Club: I have not come with any purpose of
detaining yon this evening, but I am In
this city, rich in the history of the-past,
to gather an inspiration from the very surround
ings, and as cheering to the pathway of dnty.
[Applause.) It is proud- to he a citizen of
this Commonwealth., Who knows what it
has done, but may rejoice that in the Old-Key
stone State, we have a reliance against rebellion
and secession. Let every true man thank his God
he lives to-day. War is a calamity in many
aspects, but we all know there are blessings will
spring out of it, which, wilt live when we fjrget
the sounds of the present honr. The Union Club
stands as one of the great instrumentalities in aid
ing tbe Government against attacks on civil
and religions liberty. Mnch good has re
sulted from it, and there are to be found in
it men of all religions and politics. Iconcur lathe
patriotic resolntions offered, for they have the
nghtring. There are a class of men in this com
munity who say, we must havo the ‘•Constitution
as it is and the Union as it was.” That cannolbe
Man is everywhere to stand erect in the dignity of
freedom, f Applause. ) And this war is not to be
closed until the cause of it is removed. . [Great ap
plause. J We must stand on, and protect aGovern
ment based on right, freedom, and to be perpetu
ated for all coming time; and the progress towards
that result is fast and rapid. When this rebellion
is suppressed it will be said, • ‘We now see the be
ginning of the end.” [Applause.) Tbe hope of
a division Qf the North has kept up the rebellion
in the South, but the North is .united from Maine
to the Keystone State, and its effects are plainly
seen and felt; and when all this false hope has
evidently failed this rebellion will collapse. I
came here to see what was the spirit which anima
ted a Philadelphia andience; and I can only eay
that onr"National Executive has only represented
the spirit of Pennsylvania. [Applause.) That
ancient Commonwealth will stand in the van
guard of freedom forever, and the same spirit
Bbows that rhe liberties which our fathers trans
mitted to ns shall go to those who come afterwards,
vt e will swear by all the sacred dnties devolving
on us—-by the gallant dead on the battle-field, that

come what may, “Liberty and Union, one and
inseparable* now and loiever.” *
'WHAT A MISSOURIAN BAID.
Hon.*Henry T. Blow, of Missouri, was the next
speaker. He commenced with the remaik that hie
mind had been kept too busy hitherto to allow him
a fitting season to address so large an audience as
before him. He reverted to tbe invitation
which had last Wednesday been extended to him,
ana there!ore deemed it a duty as well as a pleasure
to speak before the National Union OJub. He had
only to. breathe the sweet fragrance of
union-loving hearts, but also to speak ofthe pul
sations of other hearts elsewhere. He did notfeel
it inconsistent to remind his hearers of those
who had nobly sustained the banner of freedom
Gettysburg needed in reality no monument, lor
her patriotic dead were forever embalmed in the
hearts of the people. The people of his Siate,
placed by circumstances in a situation where thev
could experience all the horrors of civil war, have
experienced those horrors to their utmost detail
The war was a great contest of mere physical
strength, against a struggle for human liberty; With
the benefit of the slave alone could we expecta per-

respects, might be mentioned along -with tb -
struggle on this tide. The time had come when
the corrodinps of an element foreign to their snirit
must cease. The triumpher the people over despot,

alluded, to several bills before Congress, and con

charm, amid unrestrained applause. \
- When Mr. Blow had coo clud id. Governor Oar

won by their valor. The Association haVe.already

Hill. Grakitb fVrmt and Rotkd Top, with the
entrenchmeme thrown up just upon the eve of the
great conflict winch was the turning point in the
careerofthe rebellion. The field, with its redoubts,
wonderful stone defences, its timber breast-works,
i*6forest height-, with the trees torn by shells and
countless bullets, and its long lines of earthwork
defences, have ail been preserved intact, and to so
contirno to preserve them, as to be a monument
forever of the greatest of American Battle-fields,
■s the object of the formation of the Association.
To enable a large number of persons to join tn thi
patriotic work, the projectors of the plan placed
the subscriptions at ten dollars each. The payment

CENTRAL FAIR,
Sanitary Commission.
Philadelphia, 1307 Chestnut Streofe
February 20,1864.
The undersigned, members of the Executive
Committee of the GREAT CENTRAL FAIR for
the .unitary Commission, beg to invite the co-ope
ration Of all their fellow-citizens, especially of
New Tei ldent ill Eenn ByTvania, Delawareand
New Jerfey, m this important enterprise. It is
first' WEEK Philadelphia, in thl
fIRbT WEEK IN JUNE NEXT, and itiseon
noently expected that the. contributions.: mg
from a popnla ion so benevolent and patrioticag
that which inhabits the Central States, and
senting the most important and varied branches of
industry and art, will secure a result in aidd the
funos of the Commission, and for the benefit of
the Soldier, at least equal to that which has at
tended similar undertakings In other cities. It
is riot necessary to agy a word to stimulate sym
pathy for the soldier. We feel for them all as
brethren, and the popular heart seeks only tho
beat mode of manifesting that sympathy in tha
mest efficient snd practical way. These fairs in
Other places have been productive of great' results.
By this means Chicago has recently raisbd fbr this
object 860,000, Boston 5150,000, and Cincinnati
more then 8200,000. We appeal, then, with tha
greatest confidence to the inhabitants of the Cen
tral States, especially to those who constitute tha
gicat industrial classes, to send as contribution
the productions of their skill and workmanship
We appeal to them in the interest of no party.
radical or conservative,RepublicanorDemocratic!'
Administration or anti-Adminlstration. We know
only this, that to send onr national soldiers in the
fi-ld supplies to supplement those Goverment un
dertakes to give them, bnt which they sometimes
fail to receive, and thus to reiieve them when sick
and in misery; is a work of Christian charity,
:hat it is a work of intelligent patriotism also, as
economizing their life, health and efficiency, on
which, under God, the nation depends in this jtg
:ime ot trouble.
We therefore ask every clergyman to announce
this humane undertaking to his people, and to ad
vise them to do what they can to further it. Wa
ask the press to give it the widest publicity and tha
most earnest encouragement. We call on every
workshop, factory and mill for a specimen of tha
best thing it can turn out; on every artist, great
and small, for one of his creations; on all loyal
women, for the exercise of their taste and indus
try ; on farmers, for the products of their fields
ano dairies. The miner, the naturalist, the man
of science, the traveler, can each send something
that can at the very least be converted into a
blanket that will warm, and may save from death,
some one soldier whom government supplies have
failed to reach. Every one who can produce any.
thing that has money Talne is invited to gives
sample of his best work as an offering to the causa
of national unity. Every workingman, mechanic
or farmer, who can make a pair of shoes or raise a
barrel of apples, Is called on to contribute some
thing that can be turned into money, and again
from money into the means of economizing tha
health and the life of onr national soldiers.
Committees have been appointed in each depart
ment of industry ar d art, whose business it will
be to solicit contributions for the Fair, each in its
own- special bran eh I hese Committees will placa
them selves in common iaation with those persons
who may wish to aid ns. In tbe meantime it is
recommended that local committees or associations
should be formed in every portion of Pennsylva
nia, Delaware and New Jersey, with a view of
disarming the indnstry of their respectiveneigh—
borhoods, so as to secure contributions for the "'
Fair. '
Committees of IrfUhes hays Also been organized
to co operate with those of the gentlemen in soli*
citing contributions.
A list cf all these Committees will be shortly
published and distributed. In the meantime thosa
who axe disposed to aid us, or who may desire any
further information on the subject, are requested
to address CHARLES J. STILLE, Corresponding
Secretary < f the Executive Committee or the Great
