HARRISBURG, PA., WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON, OCTOBER 38; 1860

On . Saturday evening last; ES.-Goveinur
Reeder, of Raria.is, 'deli v'ted the following
speech in the'roc nis of the Republican Head
quarters in th.e ty' of Pitiladelpn —Juhu G,;-
forth, President 01 the Holitittenl v i Cita.) Ctlio.j
the meeting to order, and introduced Es.-Gov:
Reeder, who. spoke as f. dloWl3, diet:the elle ring
had subsided. He said : '
The great agent which the 'whdona of ProVl=
deuce 1188 selected to sustain and execute the
laws of the Unice: s is change. All over the
face of creation, from the inicrosedikieplant tci
the whirling planets—on tee Ocean and the
shore—in the sphere of animal -and vegetable
life—of light and darkneks—of beast and cold=
of mind, of matter and of physic's ; in the his'
tel( a of men, of nations, and of creeds ; of all
human compacts and initiitiMis—goVernmen
tel, pvlitiasi aud religion's, we see and• fee'l its
silent, tireless action, and everywhere we trace
its work. Strength exhausts itself into weak
ness, and.weakness arises again 1.,y its •own• si
lent accretions to strength. Vigor travels its
own path to decay, whilst 'decay under Abe
same agency .converts into! vigor: AIL is
change but truth, reninins " fikkever a fix
ed and established standard,' by which at all
times, in all changes,, the fluctuations of this
agitated mass are,-to be measured. mid tested.—
Truth, born of this God-ordained ; agitation,
which under God she controls, warring upon
the false and bringing the' largest-measure of
good y from the smallest, amount of evil, can
alone sit in judgment - over this - grandliiepressi s
ble conflict of creation, this unending attrition,
of !moral, mental and physical antagonism.—
Without falsehood we could define tralli';
without the comparison of the'confliet we could,
not distinguish the.one from: the other. ,
And yet there are men andacitais enough to
attempt to mend God's hindiworh by putting
an end,to the conflict between truth andrerrork
between growth and decay, between the intagii-i
nism of all pervading princiPles and agents In'
a manner peculiarly their own. Not by mixing,
in it, to bear their part honestly - and bravely,
as Providence and patriotism intended they
should, by eliminating thegood and rejecting
the good and rejecting the evil, but by ripest-,
ing, the agitation and commanding the worldto
stand still. When society, apparently learning
the lesson from the human body, and the whole
physical world heaves with painful struggles
and disturbing cries to resist the disease that it
feels to be insidionely pervading ita conatitn
lion, these emniiics - would decry the akitatiOrt
and paralyze the conflict. Not does it-matter
that this is found to be beyond their power.—
Happy and complacent in their con - ceits,
they can reason out from their own ast6rtion
the same good result to their country as if they,
had started to reason from the fact. And When
some looker on,
pointing to the looming fact;
innocently but earnestly says—"look, look,
and see! they, straightway charge him.,coolly.

them from walking through a rain storm dry,
through a fire unsinged, or over a precipice

authority. [Renewed laughter.] •
And there is yet" another ~ctass of purblind,
blear-eyed political philosephers'who; believing
that although. the everlasting bills must obey
the . law that commands them to eengeal, to
melt, and to crumble; although. - all!tiround, of

and fall, ; since the days of Babylon; yet from
this lime-pervading, apace-pervading law of the
universe, there is one.thing excepted, and that
is (pray excuse the
,bathos) .;the ,Democratic
party. They believe that a mere partisan. or
ganization, made by.human hands, swayed and
controlled by the - :.pitte deVotkibh and corrupt
ambition of patriots and demagogues,. of .sages
and fools, of honesteriten and Itnavea all 'cern
mingled and contending, Must.of neeesSity2l4
always the
: same, yesterday, to-day, and forever
—that the passing century .finds it and leaves
it, exclusive of error, insusceptibleeof-achange;
incapable of wrong, a crystalized anomaly in
God's creation. •: And yet; 'my fellow-citizens, it
is this sublime stepidity against which we have
chiefly bY,e,Mlßtid.' 'They; toe, 'have their mode
of proof„somewhat z ,akin to that, of, the:11011T
agitation conservativeness, and eqUally sage
factory. They hold. that names are things,
that terms are essence, that adherence to an
appellation is the only, and` ntapieservative
elemental and constitutional identity; a logic
which-reasemed 'out to-its--results-,--would-prove
that if you should happen:to,get into old Buck's
coat and
,pantaloons, you would• be the Presi
dent,'and he' would be only the' tornont

it would.prove, that when the snake'eastsdkia

did not bite us, bueneed pay no attention to
the glistening coils of musele and venom that

Let.me give you an illustration of one of this
class of patriots : and philosophers: -I met bim

if so, tell me what it is." "Well," lie replied,
"I don't think there Is." ''Then," said 'I,

execrate the memory of Biown for
war into Virginia,--whilst—they send Walker to
carry war into the bosom of. Nicaragua and
Costa Rica. They are willing to join in con
signing Aaron Burr to infamy, whose crime
was an intended invasion of Meycieo; and tlity
lead the armed invader of another State to re
ceive the blandishments and courtesies of their
President in the White House. There is no
tradition, no principle, no proud page of his
tory that is too precious for these worshippers
of African labor tocaat upon the altar of slave
ry-
It is fashionable for many of them, and too
common with some of us, to charge these crimes
upon James Buchanan. To this I decidedly
object, and I must interpose to do him justice.
The faults and crimes of iris administration are
not personaly all his own. In the commission
of them he was true at heart to his party,
though not to his country. Had he never been
born, the walk wou'd have been done as well.
The ruling dominant sentiment of the mass of
his party imperiously demanded and justified
all he did, and had he faltOred in the work,
there would have been one rebel more; but he
could not have turned the current of that sen
timent. Like the car 14 ,7 Jig r .getiiant; it would
have rolled over him as over Douglas. This, is
no justification to him, it_is true; but I insist
that he has enough sins of his own, and shoul.l
he not be made the Scapegoat to . cleanse his
party; and carry all-their sins into forgetful
ness. It is true that this was done among the
children of Israel for the cleansing of the peo
ple, and that when the goat was brought forth,
Aaron would spread his hands over the head of
the goat, and confer upon his head all the sins
and transgressions of the children of Israel; and
when be had placed upon the head of the goat
all the iniquities of the people, he sent him to
bear Ahem forth into this wilderness. Now I
-protest against the introdnction of this ritnA.
at is not in the Cincinnati platform, nor the
`Charleston platform; and even if they do have
an' old Buck in the flock, who is about to be
sent forth into the wilderness, this African De
mocracy is not under the Mosaic dispensation,

transgressions in that fashion.
Ex-Governor Reeder is decidedly a pleasant
speaker. He spoke an hour and a half, and
owing to the crowded state of our columns this
morning, we are only enabled to give the above
epitome.
A Visit to the Hero of Lundy's Lane.
One of the editors of the Springfield (Mass.)
"Republicah," while in New York called upon
Lieutenant• General Scott, whom he photographs
as follows :
The General was writing" as I entered, at a
large table spread with papers and military re
ports, but laying aside his pen he greeted me
with a smile of welcome, and in such a Simple,
unostentatious. manner as to annihilate all feel
ings of reserve; and I was soon conversing with
him, and listening to hialma conversation:with
freeom and pleasure. Alluding, among other

known as:Luut y sJ-K4l/G,

my shoulder crippled l'adiy. But a good
physical system and a sound . Constitution saved
me. As you see," he continued,'"l am unable
tdraise my lett hand to my head." I now no
tieed.for Tthe first thne that his left shoulder was
a trifle lower than his right, but the ball is not
thei'e, as has sometimes been stated. - •It passed
through the joint, and, to
,us.i the General's
ranguage, "for aught I know killed some one
behind. me.".
Inquiring as Lo his health, he remarked be
was conscious of no change, but that his health
'had always been and was now excellent. In
speaking of West Point Academy, he said that
he'slibuld mit advise any young man to enter
there after seventeen years of ago ; since he

occasionally, but ordinarily requires none. His
