A Large Gathering ant Great En-
Speeches of Hon. James G. Blaine and
,Horace Maynard,
Last evening Concert Hall was crowded to ex

auspices of the Union League. The-hall was
tastefully decorated with national colors,beneath
which were hang patriotic mottoes,such as "The
Union must and shall be ; preserved," and "Lib
erty, Equality and Fraternity."
On the platform were seated the members of the
linion,LeaKT ) and ern ny p gt n incntgentlemen,
among whom were, Senator Henry Wilson, of
Massachasetta, the.:.ltex. Bokun2, of Ten
iteaseci,and others.
Henry C. Carey,: Esq., was , chosen to preside.
You have probably all heard of the, great Dem
ocratic victory in Maine,a victory of about 20,000
majority, and ,many of
. ; you have probably been
told of a greater that is m preparation. - of
y f ralaiwe - adard of the active and energetic man
to 'whom ' theae Democrati are mainly indebted
for success ; a'rlon of Pennsylvania, weitizen
of ' Maine, James G. Blaine, 'whom I havermw
the honor 'to introduce: to • you. Let us wel
conic him With three cheers:for: the "Star of the
- n . Three cheer's were given with, a will, and then
there was long continued cheering for Mr.l3laine.
When the noise had'sribeided
Blaine said:
srrzerr-pe nozi..2.2auts G. BLAINE.
Tam aunts sure,•Mr. Chairman, that there is
nothing - in my personal or political history that
could warrant such:. demonstrations of applause,
andtl. therefore take it as an:ascription through
me to the gallant Republicans of my State, wno
in 3 our behalf and for the sake of Pennsylvania
labored so hard and so successfully in our
la.ta great struggle in that State. LChears.l We
might have lain still and whioped them to our
satisfaction, but we remembered that you had a
closer, struggle and' we rolled up for your encour
agement magnificent majority, that should teach
the Democrats in other States that their power
has gone from them forever. [Cheers.) We be-
Ilevedin certain success.
Well, my friends, wo succeeded, not who ll y of
ourselves, foray a Pennsylvanian I cannot forget
to appreciate the service of one of your distin
guished Representatives—Judge Kelley. [Great
applause.] He did us most gallant and eloquent
service throughout the State.
;.Nor can I forget the presence of another man
on this stage now, who, in seventeen speeches of
unparalleled eloquence and power, assisted in
rolling hour:great Republican majority. I
allude to Hon. Henry Wilson, the Senator from
Massachusetts.. [Cheers.)
-The,theers were then called for and given with
Will for Mr. Wilson.
_ I cannot forget the service that was done 1
by your gallant son, and here simply acknowl-
edge' it, and come back to my native State to
minglemy -rejoicings with yours, (I am a car
pet&hagger, as: you know.; I think that is the
phrase now applicable to every citizen who
-leaves the door-sill on which he was born to go
to another. State in his own , country), and to ask
yen to imitate, our example on the 13th of Oc
tober; We havep buried the Democrats so deep
in our and whipped them so badly, as one
of our boys says, that.we have just left enough
of them for seedlor next year. [Cheers.]
The questions at Issue in the pending Presi
dential canvass naturally divide themselves into
two classes: those relating to reconstruction, and
those relating to finance and taxation. My hono
rable and eloquent friend from Tennessee r Mr.
Maynard], who will follow me, Is much bettor
prepared, by reason of the locality of his resi
dence, his means of observation, and the results
of his personal experience, to present to you the
issues growing out of reconstruction. He can
say literally in regard to reconstruction that he
has seen all of it, and that his own public life
and services have become largely interwoven
with it. I therefore leave to him the discussion
of those questions; and, in the brief hour in
which I shall trespass upon your patience, I shall
devote myself entirely to that other series of
questions connected with the national finances
and with national taxation.
In the recent exciting and momentous cam
paign in my own State the Democracy, under
the lead of Mr. Pendleton, made these questions
ci the finances and taxation the prominent and
dominant issues; and upon them, as you well
know. their defeat was more disastrous than any
to which they were ever subjected since their or
ganization as a party in Maine. I cannot but be
lieve that the same principles and conclusions
which governed the minds of the great mass of
the people of .Maine will govern and control the
action a the people of Pennsylvania. [ hp
planae. J
The aemocracy told us in our Maine campaign
that of all people in the world the Americans at
this time were the most down-trodden, the most
over-burdened, and the most oppressed, and tkat
this over burdening and oppression was the
natural sequence of the system of Federal
taxation now in force. I observe in a morning
paper of your own city, In a speech by Ex-
Governor Bigler, that the same refrain is
taken up here, and that the people of
Pennsylvania are invited under the same cry
that was raised in Maine to abandon thew support
of the Republican party and wander off after the
lead of those to whom we are already indebted
for the great legacy of a rebellion, to subdue
which cost five hundred thousand lives and twenty
seven hundred millions of dollars. Gov. Bigler says
that he would not encourage the mere croaker
about taxation, but that really we are the worst
tax-ridden people upon the face of the earth. He
intimates, however, that he had not himself been
conscious of this terrible oppression until after
reading a speech made by Mr. Pendleton at Ban
gor, in the State of Maine. [Laughter.l
ow, to that speech of Mr. Pendleton's, my
friends, it was my privilege to reply before many
large and intelligent audiences in the State of
Maine,
and I esteem it a peculiar privilege to be
allowed the opportunity of replying to it on the
soil of my native State of Pennsylvania, and be
fore an audience of the loyal people who have
achieved for that State her present great renown
and glory in the annals of our common country.
I Cheersd I have inquired before many andi
ences,,aa I shall now Inquire before this, what
particular form of taxation it is that is com
plained-of as oppressive upon the industrial and
laboring classes of this great country. Happily
for the more speedy termination of a discussion
of this kind, questions of taxation are essentially
matters of fact. We may rest on the old adage
that "fighres will not lie," and therefore we are
not required to resort to presumptions and spec
ulations, bat are enabled to turn at once to the
law and the testimony.
Now, the revenue to be raised this year from
this entire country by the National Government,
will amount to three hundred and o:Any mil
lions of dollars. This is a very large sum, I ad
mit; but it must be remembered that the country
- which is called upon to pay this sum is a very
large country, and one which possesses immense
and almost incalculable resources. It would be
a burden upon the city of Philadelphia for her to
undertake the payment of this three hundred and
thirty millions; it would be oppressive upon this
great Keystone Commonwealth to pay that
amount; it would be oppressive to compel its
payment by any five or by any ten States of this
Union; but when you take our whole vast domain
with its well-nigh forty States and ten Territories,
and its forty millions of people, with a develop
ane,nt of wealth before unknown and altogether
onparalleled in all history, the amount actually,
demonstratively, and inevitably becomes „quite ,
inconsiderable as a burden or an oppreealon.
But I do not purpose to rest upon a mereg ene
rat statement of this character. I propose, with
your leave, to address to you as an intelligent
_audience few questions which, if not answered
on the spot; tell' at least, I hope. lead to such re-
Sections-ail may call forth a signi fi cant answer at
your'polhi on the 13th of October. Of the $BBO,-

I take it for granted, without argulug, that no
one will contend that 'revenue derived from this
source is any oppression to the poor man or the
laboring man, or is any hindrance to the pro
gress of the industrial interests of the nation.
The remaining seventy or eighty millions that
are derived from the tariff come undoubtedly from
the duties assessed on articles of necessity and
used among all classes. And ,I.need hardly ask,
hero on the soil of Pennsylvania, whether it bo
,desietible ; - that -these ' duties, :whieb. shield
lour r.enechanies and artisans , - from • -the

inevitable result of striking down 'that system of

dustrlal establishments are indebted for. their
growth and their maturity, and which, by its
continuance, would give them an assured future

yetrealized, e • • • "
I will not so far insult the intelligence of the!
'audience that I have the honor to address as to
'put these interrogatories to them in any 'other
;form: than. as protests, as it is the undoubted Re=
;publican faith, not in Pennsylvania alone, but in
'Maine, and throughout the country, that the/ labor •
of American mechanics shall be fostered, stimu
lated and rewarded by a system' of protective
duties such as are now in force under-Repub
lican legislation. And, therefore, without
stopping to justify. our position on this
point, I make the charge against the Demo
cratic party that, by their own resolutions, in
their National Convention, they have committed •
themselves to a policy which will strike down
and forever destroy this system of duties under
which your own and other States have been en
abled to build up those marvels of prosperity and
mechanical' industry which now distinguleh
them. I assume, therefore, that, eo far as„ con
cerns the tariff - an e $160.000,090 of 'Venue
derived therifrom. Ine ot stop h and
now to argue the 'matter befo a Penn Vani .
audience.
Surely, if there be oppression from taxation, it
does not come through the tariff. And if the
tariff is to be changed from a protective to a
revenue tariff, surely it is to be done solely by
the Democratic party, without the concurrence
and against the protest and united opposition
of the Republican party. (Great applause.]
If, then, the tariff is not burdensome to
the laborer, I suppose it follows that the
supposed terrible oppression upon the laboring
classes is ' caused ;by the system of taxation
that is assessed through the medinni of our in
ternal revenue offices. Perhaps it is here that
we are - to find that industry is ground down, and
that while the laboring man has canse , to groan
the rich go about clad in purple and fine linen—a
whole brotherhood of "bloated bondholders,"
living on what has been filched from UMW:Wing
classes. I repeat this as an epitome of the'
Pendletonian-Bigierian style of stating the,ques
tion. For myself, I prefer to deal less in gener
alities and to come more specifically to the essen
tial facts of the case.
Now, my friends, I hold in ray hand a small
book, and on one of its' small
pages, within the space of two square inches, I
have set forth the various sources from which, the
entire amount of internal revenue is derived.
That amount, as I have stated, is $170,000,000.
As I now recapitulate the sources from which
that amount comes, I should be glad to inquire
of any one in this audience, whether Republican
or Democrat, which• one, it is of the different
classes of the tax that oppresies.hint.; The first
source which I shall name- is the soh s 1 tax, the ,
generic phrase which denotes the 'entire amount'
derived from the articles of , whisky,
rum, brandy, wines, ale,' beer,
and all forms of malt liquor; giving us for the
current year the large aggregate of $56,000,000.
Is there any one in this audience particularly op
pressed by the whisky tax? A gentleman from
Illinois told me the other day that that was the
particular tax about which the Democrats down
in Egypt most loudly complained; because in that
locality the members of the party on an average
assisted in paying it about seven or eight times
each per day. But I take it that in the sober and
discreet city of Brotherly Love you can find no
man of any party willing to assert or confess that
he considers the whisky tax an oppression upon
any one under the sun. Then we have disposed
of fifty-six.millions. Next comes the tobacco tax. I
'rankly admit that to those of you who smoke
and to those of you who chew a few cents more
on the pound for tobacco, and a few cents more
on the hundred for cigars, form some part of the
expense which. a Democratic rebellion entailed
np~n the country. But if any gentleman will
tell me how twenty millions of revenue can be
more equitably derived than by the imposition of
a tax upon this hurtful luxury of tobacco, I will
esteem him a public benefactor and tendr him
my personal acknowlegment. No candid, fair
minded man certainly will be bold enough to as
sert that the tobacco tax hinders or thwarts the
development of any enterprise in our entire
country.
Well", next we come to the income tax. I sup
pose it must be in this that the Democracy find
theevidence of such heartrending oppression upon
the poor and the laboring classes. Bat you will
please observe that no man ie called upon to pay
an income tax until he has first paid his rent, his
repairs, the expenses of his business, and all his
taxes, Federal, State,, and local, and then can
show a net annual gain and profit of more than
$l,OOO over and above all those outlays. On the
excess above that thousand dollars the Govern
ment asks him to pay five per cent. Now, Ido
not know the standard of wealth in Philadelphia;
I am a plain countryman; but down whore I live
we don't. call a man poor who has more than a
thousand dollars net annual gala and profit after
all his rents and. repairs and expenses of bueinees
and all forms of taxation have been discharged.
And with us, when.a man has reached that , state
of prosperity which enables him to show a bal
ance sheet of more than a thousand dollars,
after these outlays, we regard- him as an un
grateful whelp if he is reluctant or unwilling to
contribute something toward the support of a
government which does so much for him. Tne
Democracy, then, cannot seriously mean that
this tax is an oppression to the poor man or the
laboring classes; and from this source we get the
comfortable sum of s3s,ooo,ooo,.exclusively
taken from the pockets of the rich, or those who
are well-to-do and prosperous in their business;
for the income tax is based on this equitable and
fair-play principle, thatif a man Luis nothing he
pays nothing. Not only that, but ho must have
a great deal before being called upon to pay any
[ rug at all.
;Well, next we come to the tax of two-tenths of
One per cent. on the sales of manufacturers above
$5,000 a year. A very enormous tax! two-tenths
of one per cent. It takes a sharp practice in vul
gar fractions to find out just how much that is.
Redficed to Its lowest figure, we have one five
hundredths; and thus this oppressive Government
goes to the large manufacturers, whose sales ex
ceed $5,000 a year, and asks them to pay the one
five-hundreth part : of what they derived from
those sales in exceee of that amount. To the
small manufacturer,to the enterprising beginner,
to the young man just beginning with hie own
hands and his little hired help to manufacture,the
Government says: "Go , free;" but from
those who have acquired large -Vrosperity,.
and whose sales go up to ' tens and hundreds o f
thousands and to millions, the Government asks
this small consideration of two-tenths of one per
cent. Upon whom is this oppressive? The man
ufacturer pays it, freely, without protest or
grumbling. The people at largo may have as
sisted in paying it in the enhanced prices of the
articles as they purchased them for coneumption. ,
Ilow enormously this cost was enhanced , by the•
tex is easily apparent. If 'you buy five dollars'
wortleof cloth it actually adds to its cost, if the
tea be counted in. one whole cent! And in the
reanufacture - of two (Wien shiroilthe, - taX7 might
possibly enhance the price of the whole lot a half
aline. And yet from a tax thus uneeeni. and un
felt the Government will this year derive several
I reiilloae ot stellate._
We next come to a source of taxation known
as the sump law, this being so much for a stamp
on a bank check, so much on an article of agree
ment, note of band, deeds of real - estate, and
largely on patent metiltlnea - anti uostrams

think the railroads and the; gold plate, and the
pleasure yacht; and the theatres,? and the: toperab,
and those who indulge in these amusements - and
luxuries, can well afford to 'pay a'tax; and I' am
at aloes 'to know how sixteen millions of dollars'
' could be raised in a more equitable manner, and
With so little . detriment to the business of the
country. • • ' •
- And, now, I have but one' other •trource'of
Federal taxation to •name,'and that' is the tax on
national banks. I- am not here this everting
either to•assail or defend the - national banks, nor
evewto discuss the bank question; it 'is the sub
allude taxation :of whicla run speaking, and I
to the national banks only to ehow you
that they pay into your Federal Treasury ten
million 'dollars annually as taxation, and that
they pay about air- lunch mete df local taxes in
the various communities in which they do busi
ness. 'Certainly this ten Millions that we derive
from national brinks is not an oppression to the
poor man. "Holders of bank stock are not
generally regarded as poor men, and, as a legis
lator, I am quite at a loss to know how ten mil
lions of dollars could be derived from any other
acriiiceioetisily as from this of the banks.
I have thus hastily and somewhat Crudely enu
merated all the sources from which our internal
revenue is derived. If you, will take pains to add
up the various sums I have named you , will find
that they give you the aggregate of one hundred
and seventy -millions of money. The system of
taxation under which this is raised is not acci
dental or fortuitous; it is the product ofiaborione
research and investigation on the part of a Re
publican Congress—a Congress anxious to
eo adjust the scale of taxation that
the industrial interests of the coun
try should not be affected, while the burden fell
only upon articles of luxury and accumulated
capitaL On this systent of taxation the Repub
lican party stand. They do not apologize for it,
they justify It; and they assert that t perform
efficienly the work oi accumulating:the amount
,of money now raised, and to render its payment
,assured, no other system could possibly be de
vised-by which the burdens would be so little
-felt by . the great mass of the comma•
nity. rLon g continued applause. I . Happily,
on this point, we. are at . sharp issue
with e
the Dmocracy; for On this, question of
taxation the Republican party and the Demo
cratic party are diametrically and irreconcilably
'hostile.' The . system approved find endonied by
,the Republicans is the system now in force. In
'oppositiort to that - we find thatthe Democratic
,party, in their National ConVention, Made the
following declaration on the subject. I beg to
',read it to . y.ou verbatim, and to beg 'that you will
specially remember it:
"Resoired, That' we demand the: eitualizatiOn of
every
. speciestif property according ,: to, its real
value, including Government bomb and sesa
rides."
To the latter clause of this resolutiOn I shall
refer directly; it is to, the former, petition that I
bow invite your attention. The propoaltion is
that every species of property -shall be taxed
according to its real value. Now, 'under such a
policy, I beg to ask this audience which one of
you could escape from the oppression of direct
taxation? How many of you to-day ever see
the face of a Federal tax-gatherer? But under
the operation of the proposition laid down by the
Democratic platform, pray tell me which of yon
Would not eee. his face, and that. continually?
Why, this runs into the extreme of absurdity.
Let me illustrate. In your city of Philadelphia
to-day you can distil a gallon of whisky at
about the same cost at which you can buy a
gallon of milk.
The Republicans tax thegallon of whisky fifty
cents; the Democratic platform would tax the
gallon of milk just the same amount; "every
species of property, according to its real value"
is their motto. A barrel of beer is worth, in your
price list, 1 presume, some fifteen dollars; the
Republican legislation taxes it two dollars. A
barrel of flour throughout the country averageB
about fifteen dollars. the Democratic platform
would tax it two dollarsars also. They would tax
bread the same as beer; milk the same as whisky;
luxuries the same as necessities; churches the
same as theatres, making no distinction between
a lager beer concert room and a vestry for
prayer meetings. It may seem absurd thus to
carry out their principle in its legitimate appli
cation; but take it in its less offensive and milder
form, and.where would it stop?
To-day the Republican legislation does not tax
your clothing, your hats, your boots, the tools of
the mechanic, the machinery of the factory, the
farm, the garden, the dwelling, the household
property; not one of all these is taxed by Repub
lican legislation. They prefer rather to gather
the Government funds through the channels I'
have indicated; but the Democratic proposition Is
to make the system of taxation a
dead level; to pat • a sewing machine
under the same law that taxes the bil
liard table, and to vut the machinery which
supports the families of a hundred artisans under
the same taxation that the pleasure yachts of the
New York sporting clubs are to-day asked to
pay. Ido noereally think that the Democracy
knew just what an absurd thing they were doing,
when they adopted the first clause of this- resola
tion. They were so anxious to get a liek'at the
Government bonds and securities, which are in
cluded in the second clams, that they quite lost
sight of the ridiculous position to which they
were committing themselves in the first clause.
And that brings me to say a word about the
taxation of Government bonds. I would here re
mark that various questions have sprabg up in
regard to our national debt which have created
embarrassment in the minds of the people; and
in the action of Congress. There is the question
ef whether taxation should be Federal or' local,
and, it federal, whether it should be through the
internal revenue system, or by so much belug
taken off the coupon. And then there is the
question whether the bonds are payable 1n gold
or in greenbacks, which, in my judgment, is not
a practical question, nor one whose determine=
clan is any more necessary to our progress as a
nation than that of the immediate settlement of
01 the questions relating to the exact location of
the North pole.
But these questions having been raised, the
Republican Congress at its last session labored
diligently and earnestly to effect their adjust
ment; and to that end they passed what is
known .as the funding bill. That bill proposed to
exchange all outstanding bonds for long bonds
reining forty years at 4% per cent. interest; the
bonds to be distinctly payable in gold at the date
o maturity, forty years hence, ana the interest'
saved by the 1% per cent (amounting to thirty
six millions annually) to be deVoted to the reduc
tion and redemption of the principal of the debt.
Now, it will be observed that by this system we
should get very much more into the Federal trea
enry than' could possibly be derived from any'
system of taxation which the wildest Dernderatie
proposition has yet broached, and-the bondholder
Nr.uld find his compensation in the feet thritlite
nploinat thus saved was to be held in the, light 'of
sinking fund for the ultimate payment of his
bond. This , measure was not undertaken bY
Cotgress without prolonged consultation with'
those who most interested in our securities
on both sides of the water; and it was generally
held-that +a -funding kltidwonld be
accepted- by the bondholders as an equitable
settlement, while tothe Government it gave all
poesible advantages cousistent with an equitable
treatment of the public creditor. . '
rNow, when an opportunity was preset ad Tor
thus reduclug the public burdens, and providing
for the definite payment-of the debt, how did'the
Democracy behave? Why, every meinberof the
party ' , in both Senate and House r fought the' bill
"4t every point, and did so inalignmagy and in ...-

comprehension, :btit I. never could. understand
, how the national debt- ould be reduced or paid
off by . changing the form„ of the ,note by which
theclovernment acknowledges ' its .. Indebt-t
.edziess., ~ '': We owe . to-day .twenty-mao ' bun-,
:dyed. , millions , of . bonded. ,;debt, , due
fifteen, twenty, forty years,hence. I Suppose you
pay It all' Off to-morrow in greenbacks (which
arbdue bills), does th Government owe,any less
the next 'day ‘ - oh, 'but," answers some enthu
sitietle admirer of the; Pendletonlan theory, "we
will at least save the interest in paying it off in
greenbacks." Yeemy friend; I acknowledge that;
but in attempting to save the Intereakaa you pro
pose, you imitate the., foolhardiness of the man
who got , rid of ble,corns by, amputating his legs.
Yon save the interest, but atwhat expense? Why,
at the expense of deranging your, entire com
mereial'fabric; at theexpense .of destroying:tho
value of the medium In, hichithe e xchanges ate
to be made. Expeilence, it is said, is.. a dear
school, and that fools will learn in none other,
while wise men learn by observation. Well,'you
hove had an opportunity to observe this prin
ciple of inflation, as it was tried in tbe so-called
Southern Confederacy. During the first year of
the war a paper dollar in Richmond was as good
as a paper dollar in Washington. both, were
wol-th a hundred cents. The second year of the
war the difference was , not very great.
The third , year the Confederate note
began to droop, and the fourth year its
value entirely collapsed. It was my fortune to
go into Richmond three days after its surrender.
and there I found free negroes and Confederate
money in roost-plentiful abundance. The ono
llbed all the sidewalks, and the other was kicked
'up and down the middle of the street. The mel
ancholy experience of that community was well
epitomized in the anecdote of the man who de
clared that in, the first year of the war he carried
his marketing in his basket and his money in his
vest pocket, but In the last year of the war he
earned his money in his basket, while his vast
pbeket contained his purchases. .
Give us 2,100 , millions of irredeemable paper
money bearing no interest, in absolute and ab
surd excess of the demands of a circulating me
diuna, and,yon repeat in. Philadelphia the terrible
starvation experiences of Richmond. , And, my
friends, you,don't even
,punish the bondholder,
if that be your onject. Yon pay him off, and as
rapidly as he is paid, before the great crash
comes, be invests in ; the property of the country,
while the men who. sell . merchandise. and who
labor daily, the laboring classes, are Compelled to
take and hold his depreciated:paper. Oat of such
a condition of affairs there are but two roads of
exit: one is absolute • repudiation, , with -all
ha terrible ' experiences and lasting obloquy,
and., the other is a:..process for fund
ing the excess of currency back into a similar se
curity for which you madly exchanged it in your
delusive theory that a debt could be paid by
changing the form of the note. , Did you accept
the first road and repudiate,no imagination could
depict the ruinous consequences; the youngest
person within the sound of my voice would not
live to see the national prosperity of the country
fully restored, while the Latest generation would
bear the evil obloquy which would forever attach
to the name of an American. If you took the
second road and funded the debt, you would sim
ply crawl back into the same hole from which
you so ingloriously escaped, a sadder and
wiser, but infinitely poorer people than you
would have been but for this unfortunate experi
ment.
What was the action of the Democrats at the
time when the tune of greenbacks was an es
sential step in saving the life of the nation? The
war had progressed to a point at which our ex
penditures were three million dollars per day. To
pay this expense in gold was impossible. We
had reached just that point where we confronted
an exigency that required both statesmanship and
courage; money must be had,and gold coin could
not be raised. Then what did the Government
do? What would any one do if called upon to
pay immediately a debt of $lO,OOO, when, though
worth perhaps $lOO,OOO in property, you have
not $l,OOO in ready cash? Do you cut your throat
it despair? That is precisely what the
Democrats thought the nation should
do; but the Republicans, who were administering
the Government, thought otherwise. They said:
' 93. ere, the whole property of this nation is
uledged for its own salvation; and the Govern
ment not being able to raise money in coin will
give its note, and we will impart to that note, by
an act of high sovereignty, the character of legal
tender between all our citizens." [Cheers. I And
from that day to this, between you and me, the
Government notes have been and continue to be
a legal tender. And that act, gentlemen, of
high sovereignty, saved this nation. The
1
Government either had to raise money through
this act or abandon the contest. Without
money, it was idle to expect to raise men;
without men you could have no army, and
without an army the Southern Cortfedemcy was
Victorious. Renee I say that the issue of the
legal tender currency was a step just as essential
to the life of the nation as was the great'victory
at Gettysburg or the storming of Vicksburg. , At
that time, did Mr. Pendleton and hia followers
raise their voices for legal tenders and for green
backs?. Not at all; they oPuesed . the issue of
them in every possible way,.and -Mr. Pendleton
himself delivered a speech against the.
Measure, whose bitterness and burning
and blistering words ring in my ears at
we moment, He ' declared ' that the Gov
ernment had no light to - make` this paper a
legal tender; that if we attempted it we sent forth
the pap , er with the stamp of,lrredeemability upon
its forefront, with tbe brand of Cain upon it; and
his followers in the House and in the country
echoed his sentiments. Butthe Republicans tri
*robed over them.' They issued the legal tender
money,and' they Bayed the nation; and now comes
tip' Mr. Pendieton,who,Wlten greenbacks were in
dispensable to the nation's lltt could find no au
thority for issuingthem, "now' de:windbag that a
perfect deluge of there shall be turned upon the
country; When,during the war,wo were In actual
need of the greenbacke,Mr. Pendleton bitterly op-
posed our issuing them; and now, in a time of
profound peape, and when the government paper
Ought to be equal in value to gold, and ,when no
fresnissue is demanded, Mr. Pendleton targets
ids former constitutional-objections, forgoes his
bitter hostility, and cries skied for an, illimitable
'llene. But 'Repriblicana did riot allow Mr. Peu
dieter' tebbstruct the issue of greenback's, when
they' were needed to seve the life Of. the nation,
and' the Republicana will'ubt allow 311- Pendle

ADDRESS OF /lOW. TIORACEC ASAXICD
Ron. Horace Maynard, of . Tennessee, was then ,
introduced, and wasreceived'Withieng-continned
cheering. When onletwas restored, he said:.
Mr, President; Ladies and Gentlemen of
delphia: It is now two years shies I hid the honer
'to teat address you ass member,of theCOlivendon
of Bottliern Union men,. appealing against , the
Intolerable violence of the times. The appeal
, was not in vain. 'The Memory of • it, fresh in
'out reeollection, is still felt in , the ':bad-dinnabie
blessings it bestotted. lam here as the repre
sentative of the same people, to addreat you in
their behalf, 'believing reconstruction _the most
important onestion for the Americart people, the
your industrial interests ivere'neYer So prosper
ous as now, or the luxuries of We so accessible
to the laboring man. Re Who cannot so tinkle
beyond the reach of demonetration. .Recon
struction covers all the matters. f thee° who' for
foul'years opposed the government, ,`
It carries with it peace and tranquility In the
Southern country, where there'has been 'n deep:-
•
seated feeling against popular gevernMent, not
only during the rebellion, but at the time of the
Revolution, succeeding at one time- in gettin ns g
poseession of thegovernment under the Coti
tution. Fortyyears ago this , teeing, culminated
in South Carolina in nullification. It was a fail
ure. Mr. Calhoun afterwards boaated •in the
Senate that he bad brought thegovernment to
his terms. The scene that failed for the Moment
was carried, on, and finally, in 1861, it malted In
an open rebellion against the' ftag and govern
ment. The fight went on for one, two and three
years, and people were doubtful as to what the
result might be, many supposing it Would be
against us. I did know the American peOple, and
it was my faith before God that they would never
allow their government to go down.
In the fourth year of the war , came the election
for Preeldent. There were two parties—two di
viaions of the people—one of them in faror of
perpetuating the Union by re-electing to' office
that man so greatly beloved by the Aaierican
people. On the other side was a party made uP
of those who did not join the rebellion and be
lieved' that the war was a failure. " As their can
didate they bad a soldiery tried one year in the
field and found wanting. Thus were arrayed the
two parties. Not one in the country but unAer
'noon the issue, and the decielon of:the people
was made known in November, 1864; 'when a tri
umphant shout went up 'along the line, The
power of the ballot-box on that occasion put an
end to the war, and in six weeks afterwards Sher
man had madelis march to the, sea, and six
months from that day not a rebel, soldier was in
onus on Ainerlean soil.
Yon fought the great fight when you declared
Abraham Lincoln 'President, and that the nation
should live and not die. - What would nave been
the case in the army if the telegraph had an
nounced that the partyugainst whom they were
hattling had carried the day ? " What would have
been the condition of the country to-day? After'
the war had terminated•the friends of the rebel
lion appeared to be content with what General
Grant, in his benignity,liad granted them at Ap
pomattox Court-houses They afterwards tried
to accomplish, by the art of politics, what they
could not accomplish by the war, and again re
gain their old ascendency. They were invited to
inaugurate.. in-•;-their. several` States 'what
was, keown as the "President's policy," and one
Million of colored' men and Northern men; who
had gone South, saw their condition would, :be
if the Southerneis, were allowed to re
establish the govei m,en tln accordance with..thetr
prejudices.
1 They Came, asking in an appeal In 1866, that.
they Should have protection, and the moral
power was again demonstreted. Now, wo have
another contest, the, country being-divided Into:
two parties, the "Boys in- Blue," and they who
alWaye oppoSeci the government, made up of that
portion ot the Demecratie party who engaged ao
dvely in, the rebellion, with that:other party, whq •
-

In the Barrett case yesterday, after conclusion
of tbrivagutlest.. , -olpdxe Wino revleiVed the 'cm'
as It liadlieen ps..enlW, and said the Barrett In-'
dichnenicontained•fivecounts, all of them chem. ,
Ing,entesplmeyOn.tlus part,of_the defendant.; The
first, Second an& third counts were so- expreated
as. to render it a little doubtful whether the in-
tention WEDS to charge a conspiracy to abduct and
murder President•Linenlu or a conspiracy Waive
aid and comfort to the rebellion. The fourth and
tiftlitxonnts We t 're somewhat differen • "
The fifth contained nothing bat a charge of
conspiracy on the, part of the defendant to cora
mit'astatilt and battery. It appeared to the court
Ibal• Abe. Offence charged In each of them was a
misdemeanor. relony is an offence at common
laW t 'and is followed by forfeiture of lanai; and
goods, or both, and very often by capital punish
ment.
d•crime is a misdemeanor unless the statue de
clinv,il to lefelotil t The . act of Congress of
July, 1862, declares giving aid and comfort to the
rebellion an offence to be punished by ten years'
imprisonment in the penitentiary. This is a ails-
demeanor, because the statute does not declare it
to ho felony. The defendant has put in a special
plea that when the indictment was found, the
l'resident's proclamation of July 4th had not
been issued. He, In the first place, put in a plea
of not guilty, and afterwards, when this session
of the court, on Tuesday, had commenced, he
asked and obtained permission to withdraw it
and put in a special plea of not guilty.
The special plea amounts to this:—That on the
4th of Jtdy last the President issued a proclama
tion, granting amnesty and pardon to all persons
for all offences described in that paper, and do
fendent avers that this is a pardon to him for all
offences charged in the indictment. The plea
alleges that at the time it:wee put In (September
22), the defendentwas not under' "Indictment for
treason or other felony in any court of the United
States having competent jurisdiction."
On the part of the United States a demurrer is
put in. It admits the facts set up, and that they
are properly pleaded. A plea which professes to
answer.kne of the &lents 84%dd - 4u:fewer all "
counts. "If defeetive as to one,. It a bid plea as
to all. Ono charge is conspiracy on the part of
the defendant to commit asaiitdt and battery on
President Lincoln. It is certainly not contended
that this is offence embraced in the prociama
'toff of amnesty. • Being void as to this, the plea
is void as' to all 'Counts on the same ground.
Then it is objected by the government that. this
plea is defective, because defendant avers that on ,
the 22d of September he was, under ; no
indictment for treason or odic!' felony in any
;United States court of competent •juritidietiOn;
Tile proclamation of. July excepts from its opera- ;
.tion persons who were under indlettnentfor tree-,
son or other felony. : . •
Taking the strict rules of pleading, Surma , ad-,
=its he was undo-Indictment at the date of the
proclamation fortreatlon or other.ftdony. - Then
he has no right to the benefit of
„amnesty and
pardon. Where:•a" plea denies a fact; and the do
nisi by.implication must be adatitted•to good, ,
A plea to be good'inust cover , the whole ground.
'Thi. plea la- bed,•unless the 'view - taken by MN
.31errick is correct, that the proclamation is open
to all offenders whenever they shall be released
from the pursuit of the law for all time hereafter.
The proclamationwas a gracious act, bat the
govereigil shnt.grants the pardon mast grant! it
on hit, own terms, and if a larek class are in
eluded;offence .ho may pardon some and ex-.
• elude others. Those who are excluded have no
tight to complain,- It was an act of grace.-
The court,:` after , reference 'to the pudoning
power, and,,quoting• the, Constitution ,of the
United States'and English and American authori
ties, remarked that the word amnesty is not used
in the constitutiblut-Ir is possible the President
might have the power to grant it, and the court
would assume it. The proclamation was ad
dressed to everybody; offering full pardon and
. amnesty for treason against the United States, or
adhering to the enemy during the late civil war.
• TheAtiestion Is, whether; the offence' charged
the indictment is covend.b,Y,thislatignaßk.l.. • z
The offence charged is certainly - not tre a i o TZ
.Is it_the offence of adliering tif the enemy dp. 7 .__

case.
What is adhering to -the. enetny? •-• There are
two kinds of treason. One levying war on toe
: government; the other adhering to the enemies
of EGirerilinento-;.And-. givingr theta aid"- and'
