I Oar limited spaofcwui not permit as to giro the many good speech** delivered at the great War Meeting, in Washington, on Wednesday afternoon. We mast content ourselves with oily one. We select the speech of Ex-Gor. Boctwkll, of Massachusetts, the gentleman just appointed Commissioner of Internal Her* enue, beomme it Is thefpeeeh of a Democrat, and of a gentleman who is just fresh from the people, haring beoa bni»a few days in Wash* ington, and became it enunciates the trne policy in relation to the war, and the only polioy, we bellere, before God, which will wizu Mr. Bootwbll spoke immediately after the President, and we aroglad Mr. Lucol* was there.to bear snob wholesome doctrine, which we would tell him, if wo had his ear, is the doctrine of throO'fourths of the army and of tho people of the Northern Sutca. After some introductory-remarks?: Mr. Boutwxll said: My friends, Mr. Crittenden said bo propos ed odo thing—to ferret oat traitors. I pro-, pose to go one step farther, fndto ask you •by there i| treason, for without treason there ooald be no traitors; and for the 1 first time that la the free open-air: I have spoken la the City of'Washington, whloh bears the name of the Father of my Country, I will pro nounce the words, if it had not been for sla very there would have been no treason. [Cfies of “Good, Good/' “Hear, Hear," and immense cheering.] And when slavery shall oease to exist there will be no traitors. [Cries of “Good, good/' and applause.] That is the beginning and the end or this war. • Slavery In the beginning, and freedom in the end) i there is no other solution under the high' Heaven; andas:an American oltisei,all the responsibilities resting oponme, treasuring as i I do the memories and traditions of the past,' i I proolalm here, at one citizen of this Repot-' i Ue, that there is no peace: until, from the i length and bredth of this BepubUo, the cryii shall go up, “Slavery, Slavery has osaled."' [Cries of “Good, good/' and cheering.] How sod when ? These are question? that I sub mit to the President, in whom we oonflde, and his Cabinet; but I believe this—thatthefas ter he and they maroh on toward the oonqlu slon when slavery shall have oeased to esfit, just to that extent they will iperit the reward and gratitude of their countrymen and all mankind. My friends, I : see here laborers— men who with their benes and sinews are to carry on this war. I have heaad that, in tbo city of Brooklyn, d*y-bsfo£»-yeai«rday r there was a riot between the f free white la borers and the colored men; so, also, in Cin cinnati and elsewhere through the North. What is the solution of thisdilficnlty between the whites and oolored raoo of the North? Freedom to the blacks. Then will they go from the North tq>the free Territories of the South, to which by nature they belong. You should have made_South_CaroUna and Florida free, and I wbold praise God with gratitude, such as has never swelled my > heart. If, to night, I oonl-i hear by the President's proola : mation Bouth Carolina and Florida were free, ; and dedicated to the' blaek population of this country, the competition with the white la borers of the North would cease. • [Loud ap plause.] They would go to the cotton fields and rioe plantations of the South thet invite them, leaving to the freo people of the North freedom from competition in labor. Aod, my friends, on the other band, thero are some i who say, reconstruct the old Uolon, with the eleven seceded States Introduced. anew, with Slavery. What think you would then hap pen? Will the slaves remain In the South? i No, but they will escape - by„buudreds .and : millions to theTToTtb, andoomainto compe i tltion with the free laborers there. Bo you i say you will return then ? You cannot do It* ’ Humanity is against it. I have been in Cairo, Illinois) and they told me that they were all ! secessionists there about six months ago. i Negroes ran away and came there, and the i seoessionists and authorities and oltltens could not carry these people back. Now, ['then, you have to take the choice—abolish I Blavery in these seceded States, and leave the i negroes there, and oarry them out of the i North by the mild power of persuasion, or I else allow the North to be overrun by escaped fugitivea from the South. Therefore, I say, my friends, that this doe trine of emancipation in the eleven seceded States—lmmediate, unconditional, universal —is the solution of the difficulty of the war, i sod consequently ’the .conclusion of‘-peaoe.~ Now, my friends, what I havo said haa.boen | based upon the wise and Just propoallloit of.i the President, .that-In", the loyal states oom-j penestlon shall be made to loyal masters of all the slaves- And I' would go on still further. | If in these eleven seceded States you can find i -men—slave owner*—who-bave done under the i circumstances all that could be reasonably ex- j peeted, I would oompensate them also. But! never with my consent'Shalb the! Treasury of i this country be opened-to. compensate Bopels i for the loss of their slates,-. [Applause, and i cries of “No, ot>/'J.. I wish Jto leave with you i in the end a word offered io the beginning, i and it is this-Wlthout Slavery there would i have been no treason, and without . treason i there would bare been no. traitors,- no war. i And upon Slavery the.nsponsiblHty Ues for | this enormous outUy .and waste of. men aud money. Over - the' whole North there are mourning bouses aod .desolate hearthstones ; \ aged parents stricken down with sorrow, grief i penetrating young hearts. All Is chargeable to. i this foul and Iniattous institution of human Slavery; and If theta be a God fo Heaven, and I if he be Just, as we bellove, we.cannot Ima- 1 Sine, with the Instincts, and, ptepeptions 1 1 ave, that He should ever look with favor upon a people twenty millions stroog strug gling in their first faith ito compel five mil lions or Babel slaveholders and their associa tions In the Sonth to be true s to the fleg and Constitution, afid at the same time compel four millions of slaves to; be true to their Bebel masters, i I t*U yoa it is a bigger work than you can accomplish.
