One of the Speeches.
The most refreshing specimen of a
speech, in the "spread eagle" style, we
have met with for a long time, was re
cently delivered in the Missouri Legisla
ture, by one Gen. Riley. As the author
is evidently "a trump," we feel disposed
to helrimmortalize him by publishing his
speech in full :
After a long and heated discussion on the re
ference of s bill amending the charter of the
city of Carondelet, to a standing committee of
the House, Mr. Rush obtained the floor, and
addressed the House :
Mr. SPEAK= : Everybody is a pitching into
this matter like toad frogs into a willow swamp,
on a lovely evening in the blilmly month of
June, when the mellow light of the full moon
fills with a delicious flood the thin, etherial at
mospheric air. [Applause.] Sir, I want to
put in a word, or perhaps a word and a half.
There seems to be a disposition to fight. I
say, if there is any fighting to be done, come
on with your corn-cobs and lightning-bugsl—
[Applause.] In the language of the ancient
Roman,
"Come one, come all, this rock shall fly
From its firm base, in a pig's eye."
Now, there has been a great deal of bombast
here today. I call it bombast from "Alpha"
to "Omega." (I don't understand the meaning
of the words though.) Sir, the question to re
fer, is a great and magnificent question. It is
the all•absorbing question—like a sponge, sir
—a large immeasurable sponge' of globe shape,
in a small tumbler of water—it sucks up every-
thing. Sir, I stand here with the weapons I
have designated, to defend the rights of St.
Louis county, the rights of any other county—
even the county of Cedar itself. [Laughter
and applause.] Sir, the debate has assumed a
latitudinosity. We have had a little black-jack
bumcombe, a little twobit buncombe, bombast
buncombe, bung hole buncombe, and the devil
and his grandmother knows what other kind
of buncombe. [Laughter.]
Why, sir, just give some of 'em a little
Southern soap and a little Northern water, and
quicker than a hound pup can lick a skillet
they will make enough buncome-leather to wash
the golden flock that roams abroad the azure
meads of heaven. [Cheers and laughter.] I
allude to the starry firmament.
The SPEAKKR. The gentlemen is oat of or
der. He must confine himself to the question.
Mr. Rmav, Just retain your linen if you
please. I.'ll stick to the text as close as a pitch
piaster to a pine plank, or a lean pig to a hot
jam rock. [Cries of "go on ;" "you'll do."]
I want to say to these carboneriferous gen
tlemen, these ignenous individuls, these deton
ating demonstrators, these pereginous volca
noes, come on with your combustibles ! If I
don' t—well suck the gulf of Mexico through
a goose quill. [Laughter and applause.] Per
haps you think I am diminitlve tubers and
sparse in the mundane elevation. Yon may
discover, gentlemen, you are laboring under as
great a misapprehension as though you had
incinerated your inner vestment. In the lan
guage of the noble bard,
"I was not born in a thicket
la be scared by a cricket."
Sir, we have lost our proper position. Our
proper position Is to the zenith and nadir—our
heads to the one, our heels to the other, at
right angle with the horizon, spanned by that
azure arch of the lustrous firmament, bright
with the curruscations of innumerable constel
lations, and proud as a speckled stud horse on
county court day. [Cheers.]
"But how have the mighty fallen," in the
language of the poet Silversmith. We have
lost our proper position. We have assumed a
iloshindicular or a diaganological position.—
And what is the cause? Echo answers "bun
combe," sir, "buncombe." The people have
been fed on buncombe, while a lot of spavined,
ingboned, hamstrung, wind-galled swyn-eyed,
eplithoofed, distempered, polevilled, pot-bel
lied politicians have had their noses in the
public crib until there ain't fodder enough left
to make a gruel for a sick grasshopper.—
[Cheers and laughter.]
Sir, these hungry brats keep tugging at the
public pap. They say, "let down your milk.
Suck, or you'll have a split bag." Do they
think they can stuff such buncombe down our
craw ? No, sir ; you might as well try to stuff
batter in a wild cat with a hot awl. [Contin
ued laughter.] The thing can't be did.
The public grindstone is a great institution,
sir ; yes, sir, a great institution. One of the
greatest, perhaps, that ever rose, reigned or
fell. But, sir, there is too much private cutlery
ground. The thing won't pay. Occasionally
a big big axe is brought in to be fixed up, os
tensibly for the 'purpose of hewing down the
gnarled trunks of error and clearing out the
brush-wood of ignorance and folly that obstruct
the public highway of progress. The machine
whirls ; the axe is applied. The lookers-on are
enchanted with the brilliant sparks elicited.—
The tool is polished ; keenly edged ; and, while
the public stare in gaping expectancy of seeing
the road cleared, the implement is slyly taken
off to improve the private acres of some "faith
ful friend of the people." What is the result?
The obstructions remain unmoved. The people
curse because the car lags—or, if it does move,
'tie at the expense of a broken wheel and jaded
and sore-backed team. I tell you, the thing
won't pay. The time will come when the nasal
promontories of these disinterestedpinders will
be put to the atone, instead of their hardware.
(Applause.] lam mighty afraid the machine
law going to stop. The grease is giving out
thundering fast. It is beginning to creak on
its axis. Gentlemen, it is my private opinion,
confidentially expressed, that all the "grit" is
pretty near worn off. [Applause.]
Mr. Speaker, you must excuse me for my
bititudinceity and circumlocutpriness. My old
blunderbuss scatters amazingly, but if anybody
gets peppered, it ain't my fault if they are in
the way.
Sir, these dandadical, supersguirtical, ma
hogany-faced gentry—what do they know about
the blueing, ti 04 ffiectioril I. About as much, sir,
ta
as a tofrog dais ri4 high glory. Do they think
they can /leas, me? I'll follow them through
pandeinonium and high water. [Cheers and
egughter.]
These are the ones that hare got our liberty
pole off its perpendicularity. 'Tis they who
would rend the stars and stripes—that noble
tag, the blood of our revolutionary fathers em
blemed in its red. The purity of the cause for
which they died—denoted by the white ; the
blue—the freedom thee attained, like the azure
air that wraps their native hills and lingers on
their lovely plains. 'Cheers.] The high bird
of liberty sits perched on the topmost branch,
but there is secession salt on his glorious tail. I
fear he will no more spread his noble pinions to
soar beyond the azure regions of the boreal
pole. But let not Missouri pull the last feather
from his sheltering wing to plume a shaft to
pierce his noble breast; or, what is the same,
make a pen to sign a secession ordinance. [Ap
plause.] Alas, poor bird, if they drive you
from the branches of the hemlock of the North,
and the palmetto of the South, come over to
the gum -tree of the Weet, and we will protect
your noble birdahip while water grows and
grass runs. [lmmense applause.] Mr. Speak
or, I subside for 'the present.
Aid For Suffering Kansas!
At the solicitation of several citizens,
the Editor of the TELEGRAPH has con
sented to recieve contributions for the suf
fering poor in Kansas. All moneys sent
to him will be acknowledged in the TELE
GRAPH and immediately remitted to the
Treasurer in New York, and the receipts
for moneys paid over will also be publish
ed. We have recieved the following :
Jacob R. Eby $20.00
Wm. T. Hildrup 6.00
George Bergner 5.00
If our citizens knew the actual suffer
ing of the people in Kansas, they would
not hesitate a moment to relieve them.—
A large lot of Flour and clothing is now
laying at Atchinson, and cannot be ship
ped from thence for want of means to pay
the freight. We hope our citizens will
respond at once and relieve their suffer
ing.
Tariff Bill Passed.
The Senate of the United States has
at last passed the Tariff bill. Thanks to
Gen. CAMERON, he has been its main ad
vocate in that body, and it is but a few
days since that he intimated he would not
return home until that bill was passed. We
sincerely congratulate him on his success.
It will do more to relieve Pennsylvania
than any measure that could have been
adopted.
After a session of nearly ten hours, a
final vote was taken, with the following
result :
Yzes—Messrs. Anthony, Baker, Bigler, Bing
ham, Cameron, Chandler, Clark, Doolittle,
Durkee, Fessenden,
Foot, Foster, Grimes,
Hale, Harlan, King, Morrill, Seward, Simmons,
Sumner, Ten Eyck, Trumbull, Wade, Wilkin
son and Wilson-25.
NAYS—Messrs. Bragg, Clingman, Douglas,
Green, Hunter, Johnson of Arkansas, Johnson
of Tennessee, Lane, Latham, Nicholson, Pearce,
Powell, Rice and Sebastian-14.
All the Republicans voted for the bill.
Mr: Bigler, of this State, is the only De
mocrat that voted for the same. Mr.
Douglas, who professed to have such great
love for this measure'when here last sum
mer, voted against it. We hope tlia
House will at once concur.
A. R eminiscence of Nullification.
It seems that Gov. Letcher, of Ken
tuoky, who sympathized with, the nullifi
ers in 1882, called upon General Jackson
to learn, if possible, what the General in
tended to do toward, crushing Calhoun's
conspiraoy against the Union. The Gov
ernor opened the subject mildly, and
Jackson only answered by telling Letoher
to read a certain instrument of writing on
the table before them. Letoher read it,
and found it to be a warrant for the exe
cution of John C. Calhoun. "But, my
dear General, you don't intend to carry
out what this paper calls for ?" "Gov.
Letcher, is my name signed to that pa
per ?" "Yes, General, it is." "Very
well, Governor; it is very seldom that I
sign papers merely for effect. Governor,
look on the left corner of the paper : is
the seal of the United States to it ?"
"It is, General." Gov. Letcher visited
Mr. Calhoun after •hc left Gen. Jackson,
and awakening him out of his sleep, re
lated to him his interview with Jackson.
Gov. Letcher alleged that Mr. Calhoun
assumed the appearance of a ghost, when
he heard what Gen. Jackson intended to
do, and Nullification lost all its venom
from that hour. Gen. Jackson said on
his death bed that he had only one thing
to regret, and that was that he had not
hung John C. Calhoun..
[Applause
CORRECTION.—In the report of yester
day's Senate proceedings a serious error
occurred by the omission of the word
"required" and the addition of the words
"the number of days," in the resolution
read by Mr. Lawrence on the subject of
the payment of .clerk's hire in the con
tested election °sae of Lewis Pughe. The
resolution, as revel by Mr. Lawrence, is :
Resolved, That tho State Treasurer is hereby
authorized and irequired to pay John Hall,
Clerk to the Committee in the contested elect
ion of Lewis Pugb e, three dollars per day for
the time employed and the usual mileage, to be
certified to by the Chairman of the Committee.
From the resolution itself it will at
once be seen that the State Treasurer had
nothing to do in the matter but to pay the
money without farther inquiry.
PRESENTATI ON OF A PICTURE OR THE
NATIONAL FLAW, WITH AN INSCRIPTION
IN HEBREW, TO THE PRESIDENT-ELECT.
The other day, at Springfield, Illinois, the
Hon. J. Young Scammon, member of the
House from 'Cook county, presented to
Mr. Lincoln a fine picture of, the flag of
the Union, with an inscription upon the
folds of the on &me, in Hebrew, being the
4th, sth, 6th, '7th, Bth and 9th verses of
the first chapter of Joshua. The verses
are those in which Joshua is commanded
to reign over the whole land. The last
one is as follows :-
9th. Have I not commanded thee: "Be strong
and of a good courage ; be not afraid, neither
be thou dismayed ; for the Lord thy God is
With thee whithenoeVer thou goest.
The picture was -aurrounded by a gilt
frame, and momg anied by a letter from
tha•donor, Abr. r;Ohn Bag: City Clerk
of Chicago, to r , Scammon.

DESTITUTION IN MISSISSIPPI.-It is
said that in the midst of the secession
movements, now in progress in Mississip
pi, a new confederate is clamorous for at
tention. It is the State of Starvation,
and something more substantial than ru
mor confirms the fact that all kinds of
provisions are getting extremely scarce.
The Brandon (Miss.) Republican says
that unless some measures are devised for
relief, many persons must perish for the
want of food. The agriculturists of that
region have, for several years, endured a
series of reverses, losses of crops and cat
tle, &c., until they are, at present, in but
poor condition to wait long for aid from
sections that have been more fortunate.
A meeting was held at Springfield, Dli
nois, on the 14th, at which a committee
was appointed to raise provisions and for
ward them to the South.
FROM THE FEDERAL CAPITAL.
[Correspondence of the Telegraph.]
Mr. Staunton's proposilion is the House, to
arm the militia of the country, and hold them
' in readiness to resist revolution, has excited
the anger and animosity of timid men from all
sections. ¶the bill comes up to-day for illsCus
sion, and a glorious contest is anticipated by
those who are anxious to recognize the supre
mency of the law. If there is any sovereignty
abiding in the government, it is time now that
it were displayed. If it is vested in the peo
ple, and by them transferred to the govern
ment, the people have a right to invoke its
manifestation, or, if that invocation is in vain,
the government absolutely and infect becomes
a failure. The idea of arming the militia for
defensive purposes, is denounced by Southern
men as the coercion they can hover recognize ;
while Northern dough-faces pronounce the
proposition a measure of force which must ul
timately produce the most disastrous results.
They admit the existence of a revolution.—
They know that the public treasure has been
carried off by millions, and the public property
seized and appropriated to local uses. They
know that the seceding States are arming
themselves, and that Jefferson. Davis has de
clared his intention to found the policy of his
reign on the keenness of Southern steel and
the power of Southern gunpowder. But the gov
ernment must not and dare not provide for its own pro
tection. According to the theory and argument
of the friends of the Administration, the gov
ernment has no power to invoke the force
placed at its disposal by the Constitution for its
own protection. All these fine drawn arguments
are fast losing their effect, and the movement
at the South begins to be regarded in its past
and only light by every reasonable man. As
long as it is dignified with the title of a re
volution prosecuted to vindicate a right, its
leaders will, of 'course, be able to command the
respect and attention of honest and unsuspect
ing men. But let this Government take vigor.
ons measures for the suppression of this rebel
lion—let a proclamation be issued pronouncing
Jefferson Davis a traitor, and all who sympa
thize with and abet his accessories in crime,
and the rebellion will assume a different shape.
Offer money for Jeffereon Davis' head and the
people of the South themselves will cover the
reward because the people in that section are
those who already feel the burden of this move
ment the heaviest, and are most anxious to be
relieved of its responsibility. As the condition
of affairs now exists they dare not assert that
for which their leaders declare they are con
tending. They dare not assert their sovereignty. 12
THEY DID DARN JKFFERBON DAVIS WORLD 101
ADORNING A GIBBET ON A TRU TOP. I think
Mr. Staunton's proposition will pass the House,
notwithstanding it will be opposed withal the
fofce and power of parliamentary tactics.—
When it does become a law, and Gen. Scott is
relieved of the embarrassments imposed on
him by the present administration, order will
be more promptly enforced, or the rebellion
will prove a great success, and the proudest
and grandest government in the world sink into
utter insignificance, and become the taunt and
prey of all its aspiring neighbors.
As Mr. Lincoln approaches Washington, pUb
lio expectation is increased, and all who ean:con
jecture, are given to making arrangements as
to who should compose his cabinet. All this
is much easier said, than it is to discover who
will be members of that cabinet. Bo far as
public opinion is e concemed, the indications
are that the cabinet should be composed of
tried Republicans and practical statesmen. Mr. -
Lincoln's administration must be a success. If
he fails for the lack of a proper counsel, then
indeed will free government utterly and for
ever cease to exist. But if he gathers around
him men identified with labor, men . who un
derstand and appreciate the struggles of indus
try coping with competion at home and abroad,
men who are willing to give up selfish
personal interests for the welfare of the
entire country—if Mr. Lincoln gathers such
a cabinet around him, his administration
will not only be a proud success, but it
will have the prouder satisfaction of re
establishing and maintaining the almost
ruined hope and principle of man's power and
desire for self-government. It is also gener
ally admitted that, Pennsylvania will be repre
sented in the Cabinet, in such a way as to
promote her material interests, as well as
se
cure the , most efficient Ger:4loes in restoring the
finances of the country to ft healthy and re
liant condition. It must be borne in mind,
that Mr. Lincoln will come into power with an
exhausted exchequer, and the credit of the
country reduced to its lowest ebb. -Be cannot
afford, therefore, to seek his admini 'titration on
a basis of abstraction. He cannot yield his
obligation to carry out the law and inOrce tha
provisions of the Constitution, merely to' suit
ify the ends and alms of visionary am.bidon
or agitating demagogneism. First of all things,
the Government must be restored. Before
anything like compromise can be liked of,
the law must be enforced—the public prOperty,
that has been violently wrested from this aoy-
WAstnxoToN, Feb. 20, 1861
•rnment, must be returned, and the banner of
the stars and stripes, that has been insulted
and trampled in the duet, must be raised to
the breeze, and once more float over every inch
of ground known to this great and grand Union
of States, and be recognized as the flag of the
free and the brave. When all this has been
done, then will the rights of the South be vin
dicated, and the wrongs of the whole country
righted. And to this end may God speed
Abraham Lincoln. 15Q1312211.
