WEDNESDAY MORNING, JUNE 2, 1862
MONSTER MASS MEETING IN INDE
PENDENCE SQUARE.
Y. 110 'SAN I R ` I • •
GROUND
A great mass meeting of the Democracy of
Philadelphia, to protest against the arbitrary
arrest, trial and ostracism of Hon. C. L. Val
landigham, and vindicate the right of free
speech, assembled in Independence Square,
Philadelphia, on Monday night last. The .
number in attendance is variously estimated at
from 25,000 to 40,000. It was, perhaps, the
largest, moat determined.and most enthusiastic
body of citizens ever convened in mass meeting
in the city, and, we are happy to say, passed
off without any unusual disturbance.
Hon. Ems LEWIS presided, and addressed
the meeting in eloquent and impressive terms.
Speeches wore made by Hon. Wm. Bigler, Hon.
Charles r. Biddle, Hon. Peter M'Call, George
W. Biddle,. Esq., Charles Bnokwalter, Esq.,
George'Horthrop, Esq., and Charles Ingersoll,
Esq., and letters read from several digtin
guished gentlemen who wertutatble to attend.
A preamble and resolutions expressive of
the sense of the meeting were adopted, inter
rupted throughout the reading by the most
, hearty applause. It would afford us pleasure,
had we space, to make large extracts from the
speeches, but at present all we can do is to
publish the preamble and resolutions, reser
ving extracts and further comments to another
time :
RESOLITTIONIS
WEEMS, The people of the United States,
have been insulted, and the laws of the land
and the principles of human liberty trampled
on by the military arrest, trial, and exile of
Clement L. Vallandigham, a citizen of Ohio,
for words spoken at a public meeting, the sei
zure of whose person, and the whole subse
quent proceedings against whom, ending in his
banishment, Were not only in violation of the
commonest rights of the• humblest inhabitant
of any free county, but in audacious and fla—
grant defiance of the Federal Constitution,
which declares that "the trial of all crimes,"
except in cases of impeachment, shall be by
jury," and which expressly forbids the making
of any law "abridging the freedom of speech,"
which declares that "the right of the people
to be secure in their persons, houses, papers
and effects, against unreasonable searches and
seizures, shall not be violated," and that "no
warrants shall issue but upon probable cause,
laupported by oath or affirmation, and particu
larly describing the place to be searched, and
the person or things- to be seized," which de
clares that ""no person shall be held to answer
for a capital or otherwise infamous crime, un
less on a presentment or indictment of a grand
jury, except in cases arising in the land or na
sal forces, or in the militia, when in actual
service, in time of war or public danger,"
which declares that no citizen shall "be de
prived of life, liberty or property without due
process of law," and, finally, which declares
that "in all criminal prosecutions the accused
shall enjoy the right to a speedy and public
trial by an impartial jury of the State and die.
triot wherein the crime shall have been commit
ted, which district shall have been previously
ascertained by law, and to be informed of the
nature and cause - of the accusation, to be con
fronted with the witnesses against him, to have
compulsory process for obtaining witnesses in
his favor, and to have the assistance of counsel
for his defence :"
• And whereas, If est words uttered by Mr.
Vallandigham had been the most offensive to
which expression could be given, they would
form not the slightest pretext nor afford the
least palliation tor the monstrous crime which
in his person has been committed against the
liberties of us all:
And whereas. In fact, and according to the
welt established, long descended and commend
able.habit in these United Owes of tree dis
cussion of political questions, what he uttered
was neither in itself unbecoming nor was it
an abuse of the freedom of speech, nor would
the speaker in any manner have been liable to
punishment for it according to the severest
code administered hi the courts of justice:
And whereas, The measures of authority must
be subject to the freest discussion, for discus
sion is nothinglfonot free, and if men's mouths
may be opened onlyi to' praise and flatter
power, and are to be closed when power is of
fended, discussion is but a name, and liberty
is a shadow
And whereas, This abuse of authority. isjus
tified under the plea. of a military neceesity—
whieh is no justification, for .the same plea
would equally justify any indignity which
could be offer-d us ; and as it served to - exile
Mr. Vallandigham would serve to turn both
Houses of Congress out of doors, to imprison
the judges, to suspend the legitimate perfor
mance of every regular function of the Sate,
and resolve all the authority into the, keeping
of one man:
And whereas, If military necessity :can invade
the bordera of Ohio, and there uproot the laws
of a State whose soil is pressed by the foot of
no publics enemy : whose people are true and
faithful to the Uonstitution, and whose justice
was quietly and unobstructedly administered
till Military power expelled it, this same neces
city may march on, and, coming into Pennsyl
vania and other States of the Union, reduce us

therefore,
Resolved, 1. That the arrest and banishment
Of Mr. Vallandigham is a violence to which the
people of the United States will not and ought
not to submit.
2. That the remedy for it is in the ballot.
box, at the coming and now rapidly approach
ingielection, when, by the votes of an outraged
people, State authority will be restored to the
hands of the Democratic party, who will use
their power, thus quietly tied constitutionally
ohtsined, to protect State rights, to rebuke and
cheek Federal usurpation, to secure the per
sonal immunity of individuals and commence
the reconstruction of the:Union.
3, bat as it is, if not our firm belief, at
leas:, our strong suspicion, that the design of
the author ties at Washingtop, is, by military
.
&pp-snort, to provoke a plantar outbreak, and .
thus to furnish to themselves au apology for
further invasion of our liberties, and, if possi
ble, to enable them to encumber tie in the ex
ercise of our elective franchise, we exhort our
fellow-citizens everywhere to patience and to
that forbearance and noble calmness !kick be
comes a people *rho, knowing their rights,
know, also, the means for their peaceful vindi

4. That, there being no such punishment
known to the laws of the United Sotelk as that
PRfCE TWO CENTS.
of exile, it is the sense of this meeting that it
is the right of Mr. Vallandigham, and it Will
be the like right of any other citizen upon
whom there should be attempted to be indicted
by like tyranny a like unlawful and infamous
ptinienment, to return forthwith,' notwithstan
ding his mock sentence, to the State of which
he' is a citizen, and there resume his place
among those who are laboring for the regene
ration of the Constitution and the reconstruc
of the Union.
s*. That in the letter of the Hon. Horatio
Seymour, of New York, to the late- public
meeting of the Democratic citizens of Albany,
condemning the poceedings of the administra
tion against Mr. Vallandigham, we recognize
the tone and language of a statesman', and the
spirit of a man worthy to be, at a great crisis,
the Chief Magistrate of a great State.
6. That as it is only to the ballot-box we
can look for permanent relief, and as we deem
it to be altogether incredible and impossible
that when called to cast their' votes, the citi
zens of Pennsylvania, of whatever party,
should not find themselves, by such monstrous
events as have been passing before their eyes,
moved in patrio`..ic and just indignation to
drive from power all Pennsylvania politicians
who stand in the way of our asserting the
freedom of our persons and the rights of our
State, we will, therefore, wait with confidence
the October election to give to the Democratic
party—the party of conservatism as well as
freedom—a Governor and both houses of the
Legislature; and whom we expect to bring in
by such overwhelming majorities as may be
reasonably reckoned on, when the question

From the Albany Argue
IRE ISSUE MADE BETWEEN POLITICAL PARTIES.
The resolutions of the Democratic State
Committee define with calmness and clearness
the position of the party pa, the momentous
subjects of war and peace. They accept with
alacrity and meet with boldness the challenge
cast dnwn by the Loyal:Leaguers at Utica, and
accept the defence of the great dootrinea Cf .
Civil Liberty against the assaults of its ene
mies.
The Loyal League was intended to serve the'
purpose of the used-up organizations of 'lost
year. The Republican party had subsequently
ceased to exist as soon as its incapacity for
administration became manifest en its acces
sion to 'power. The People's party, the Union
party, the No:party party, which were got up
to succeed it, have sunk intodissolution, The
Loyal Leaguers were to take their place and
serve the purpose of politicians who had ex
hausted these previous devices, and whose old
cheats now failed to, humbug the people.
The conception was an ingenious • one. It
combined the secret instrumentality of the old -
Snow Nothing Lodges, with the public machi
nery for arousing. popular enthusiasm. The
managers took hold of it. lf money was
needed the shoddy contractors. the government
bankers, the brokers, who have become rioh
upon 'steak jobbing, were ready to. furnish the
money. The N. Y. Tribune boasted that one
banker offered twenty thousand dame to the
party fund! Sinecurist office.holders, holiday
generals and the hirelings of party were ready
foe the work.
They tried it and it failed! Why? because
in a crisis of the magnitude of the present the
depths of the popular heart cannot be reached
by shallow devices. Humbugs such as these
attempted might do for a day of prosperity,
when political issues were trivial and the feel
lege they ezeite eu erflcial. But now the fate
of a nation is at stake, and the masses will not
permit themselves to be misled by gew-gaws
and flaunting devices, by catch-words and
clap-trap oratory, by: ihe cant of the Phari
sees, who have set up the worship of the War
Moloch, or the slang of politicians who, in the
name of Liberty and Freedom, propose to or
ganize a system of military despotism and ar
bitrary power.
These demagogues have come before the pub
lic wit:ll:masks and mummeries. Westrip from
them their disguises and: expose them to the
people in their true. character. But we do not
propose that they shall avoid• or evade the
contest they have challenged: The Democrats
will hold them to. it. The acceptance which
the State Committee have made of their wager
of battle, will be banked by every Democrat of
the State—by every Democrat of the North.
The question is that of constitutional liberty.
Shall written constitutions be vAd ; shall re
presentative government exist ; shall laws be
enforced ; shall jury trial be preserved ; shall
the asylum of home be sacred ; shall the rules
of evidence, the right to wittinesses, the privi
lege of appeal, be assured to a citizen when
accused ? Or shall all these rights be prosti
tuted before the military power, and courts
martial annul them at will ?
• This is the issue and the single one before
the people. The questions of peon and
war are out of the hands of the Democracy.
They cannot appoint generals,
nor negotiate
treaties. They cannot, by the force of public
opinion, coerce or instruct the men in power on
either subject. Bat they can defend their
home rights, and they will do it. In these
resolutions they are pledged to do so ; and they
will fearlessly redeem the promise.

At a meeting of the Democratic State Com
mittee, held at the Delman House at Albany,
on Thursday,i May 28th, 1863, the following
resolutions were, • after fun consideration,
unanimously adopted
This Committee deem the expression, of their
views upon the following stOj sets, at this time,
as appropriate and demanded by the °imam
stenos of the country
FIRST-SUPPOUT OT THE GOVERNIKENT.
Resolved, That this Committee fully approve
the following resolution, adopted by the last
Democratic State Convention:
"That they will continue to render the go
verninout their sincere and united support in
the use of all legitimate means to suppress the
rebellion and restore the Union as it was, and
maintain the Constitution as it is—believing
that that sacred instrument, founded in wisdom
by our fathers, clothes the constituted autho
rities with full power to accomplish such pur
pose."
SECOND-MOVEMENTS FOR FEACE.
Resolved, 1. That we earnestly desire the
restoration of peace to our beloved country,
now so long desolated by the scourge of this
unnatural and fratricidal war.
2 That the terms of peace, when made, must
necessarily determine the future character of
our governnient, the condition of our people
and the destiny of our country. •
3. That we have not faith in the views, the
purposes, or the capacity of the dominant
party, to deterniine questions of vital import.
ance to the liberties, the rights and the }tepid
nee's of the American' people.
That we hold that it is as incapable of ma
king an honorable, beneficent peace, as expe
rience has shown it to be of Waging successful
War.

conspiracy with the Southern Confederacy,
to make a peace by a separation of the States :
And whereas, the Democratic and conservative,
mosses of our people,' who are opposed to any
terms of peace which fail to restore the Union .
and save the Constitution, hesitate to trust that
measure to the hands of those who are hostile
to both—we deem this a fit occasion to protest

TE/RD-IJSITAPATION OF POWER AND'AWFAfreIf OF
PNRSONAL SIGHTS.
WuannAs, The Republican party,- &tough
their journals, and through their aceintmited
speakers, at.an organized meeting recently held
in the city of Utica,. have openly declared that
this government ought to place the Military
above the Civil and Judicial authority ; that it
ought not to be held in check by the Conetitu-•
Lion of the 'United States, or of the - .Natos ; and
that it may rightfully disregard the lawn of the
land, by suppressing freedom of speech,. vio
lating the homes of our oltiterts '
anddepreing:
them of their liberties, without due-process of
law, or trial by jury
And whereas,. The , great'ead of all. free gov
ernments is to secure to the people the rights
of persons, of property, of the: fireside, of
speech, and public discussion grid of religious
and political opinion ; therefore, in babel( of
the Union-loving and law-abiding cititene of
this State, we repel and denounce the slavish,
cowardly and despotic principles thus put
forth by a political assemblage, which appro
priately assumes the "loyal" designation =der
which the Tories of the ftevolitties proclaimed
their unconditional support of administra
tion of the King al Great Britain. And we
charge that many of the active agents in get
ting up said meetingwere influenced by. peen-
Diary and personal interests, in contracts, office
and stooks.
Resolved, That we accept the Isoucethurten
dared na by a party which proclaim* its. eon
tempt of the Constitution and the lawn ;-- and
that we will go before the people of Vat State.
and of the country, with fell oonfulonce • that
they will not throw awwy.those prim/Wes of
civil sad religious liberty, taught to them-by
the great and good men of the conntryvand in
corporated in the foundstdorm -and framework
Of our government. ,
.kerelred# That not only the' disorganising
principles avowed by the - retainers of the ad- -
.miniatratiton, brit the arbitrary acts of its Sub
ordinates, are calculated to inspire the Wands -
of constitutional government throughout the
world with alarm; The dispersal of COMIC

*talon of the votes of toldiem the public re
moval, with opprobrious stigma, of an officer
of a New Hampshire regiment, for the °fence
of voting the Democratic tielret—are-' acts
which run through the whole- cede of deSpitio •
systems and turn the guarantees of constitu
tional liberty into a mockery and a snare.
Ritsoired, That while we do. not object to the
rightful- exeroise of military la*, within- the
• Hues of warlike operations or maid the scenes
of insurrectionary strife, we maintain that be
yond those lhalts,-the civil "Lewis, supreme, and
and that those who seek to , prostrate it by

Beatthirdi That we recognize- in the states

17:111 STATE' CONVENTION.
The near approach of •the time for holding:
the Democratic -State Convention, is naturally
drawing the public mind, with increasing in
terest, toward the-probable actionof that im
portant body. Those who feel how weighty ,
the considerations , are , - which hang upon its
deliberations! , and.- ultimate decisions, cannot
refrain from an expression of their intenseanx
iety for the result. The question is asked,
with an eareestnesenever before felt, will this
Constitution,. as -a representative of the
National party that, for so many yea%• suc
cessfully administered. the government is strict
accordance with the- letter and spirit. of the
Convention, .and., abjuring all sectionalism,
held the Union together in the bonds of mutual.
fraternity and interest—will it rise to the full
measure of the importance of the work before
it, and, regarding only the present and future
welfare of the people who confide in. it,. and.
the perilotta condition of our now. distianted
country, act as the spirit of pure- patriotism,
and a sense of the dangers that assail not,enly
the Union, but the very fabric of freedom itself,
shall dictate? Or will it be a mere repetition
of what such bodies have too often beenin for.-
trier and ordinary times—a squabble of rivaL :
factions and petty local or personal interests,.
each intent on gaining its own selfuh.
perhaps, unworthy ends? The peoplis'expect
much at the hands of this Convention, - and:
should they be doomed. °to disappobitnnt,
fearful responsibility will nest upon. the ,headta
of those to whom that disapp ointment than

have to be charged.
The choice of a candidate for Gorsernon watt
be the most important work of the-Convention.
The times are • extraordinary and' momentous,
and demand a man who is fully equal Latham.
The call is loud and peremptory..for re candi
