Speech, at CUveland
FELLOW-CITIZENS :—lt U nojor the
- purpose of making a speech hat I
am-now before you. I am ware
of the great curiosity that pvails]
to see strangers that have nosrigtv
and distinction in all courtrju. 1/
know a large number of you i'esiwL
to see General Grant *nd to , he?

111, I repeat, lam not be/.

how are you ? and to biJou good

more. It is not nco'ssary for mc to
mention the name if Stephen A.
Douglass to tho pettdc of Ohio.
[Applause - ] lam fi?e to say that
I am flattered by tho demonstration
I have witnessed, and being flattered
I don't mean to think it personal,
but an evidence of what i* p«*va<ung
in the public mind. An-' this dem
onstration is nothirw more or less
than an indication of the latent sen
timent or feeli-g of g™ 4 ma f"
es of the people with regard to the
proper (settlement of this great
quests- I come before you as an
Anerican citizen simply, and not as
the Chief Magistrate, clothed in the
insignia and parapharnaliaofa State,
bcina an inhabitant of a State of
of this Union. I know it has been
said that I am an alien [Laughter]
and that I did not reside in one of
the States of the Union, and there
fore I could not bo the Chief Magis
trate, though the Constitution de
clares that I niust be a citizen to oc
cupy that office. Therefore all that
was necessary was to declare the of
fice vacant; or render a pretext to
prefer articles of iinpeachn.ent, and
thus the individual who occupies the
Chief Magistracy was to bo disposed
of and driven from power. But a
short t ; mo since you had a t : cket be
fore vou for the Presidency. I was
placed upon that ticket with a dis
tinguished fellow citizen who is now
«io more. 1 know there are some
who complain. [A voice, "Unfortu
nately."] Yes, unfortunate for some
that God rules on high and deals
in right. (Cheers.) Yes, uuf rrtu
nately, the ways of providence arc
mysterious and incomprehensible,
controling all those who exclaim "uri
fortunitc." ("Bully for vou.") I
was going to say, my countrymen,
n short time since I was selected and
placed upon the ticket. There wa
ll platform proclaimed and adopted
by those wh*> placed me upon it.—
Notwithstanding the subsidized ging
of hirelings and traducers, I ha e
discharged all my duties and fulfilled
nil my pledges and I say here to
ciight" that if my predecessor had
lived the via's of wrath would have
been poured out upon him. (Cries
of".Never." "Throe cheers for the
Congress of the United States. ) I
came here as I was passing along,
nnd have been called upon for the
purpose of exchanging views, and of
tsceilaining if we could who was
tvrong. [Cries of"It s you. ] I hat
was my object in appearing btforc
vou to-night, and I want to say this,
that 1 have lived among the American
people and have represented them in
some public capacity for the last 2">
years, nnd where is the man or wo
man who can place his fiingcr upon
one single ast of mine deviating from
any pledge of mine, or in violation
of tho Constitution of the country.
[Cheers.] Who is he ? hat lan
guage docs he speak? What religion
does he profess ? Wbo can come and
place his finger upon one pledge I
rvcr violated or one principle I ever
proved false to ? [ A voice. "How
about New Orleans ?" Another
voice, Hang Jeff Dnvis ! ) "Hang
Jeff Davis,"- he says (cries of "No,"
and "Down with him!] —"Hang Jeff
Davis," he savs. [A voice—"llang
Thad Stevens and Wendell Phillips. ]
Jiang Jeff. Davis ! Why don t you
[Cries of "give us the
opportunity.' ] Have not you got the

torney General ? [A voice—"Wllo is
Your Chief Justice who has refused
to sit upon tho trial ?" Cheers.] I
am not the Chief Justice. lam not
the prosecuting attorney. (Cheers.)
.. I am not the Jury. I will tell you
vchat I did do. I called upon your

The I.oval Southern Convca
lion.
Which met in l'hiladelpnia last week,
fas oue of unusual interest.
A convention had been held by Cop
perheids last month, under the influence
:>f the President, to effect a national or
of a party in tho interest of
what he is pleased to call "my policy,"
but which Mr. Seward seems to think
should be callei "Our policy." This
convention, though managed, in the main,
by a few excommunicated Republicans,
was composed mainly of Northern Cop.
perheads and Southern Rebels. Among
the latter were, Gov. Orr of South Car
Dlina—a former mcnibercf the Rebel Sen
lite. —Gen. M'Causlin, the destroyer of
Chambersburg; (Jen. Dick Taylor, who
was one of the most cruel of rebel gen
erals, having made his name infamous by
the murder of six Union soldiers, pris
oners of war, whom lie compelled to dig
their own graves preparatory to having
:hem shot! He too, a i>rother in law of
leffcrson Davis !
It is little wonder that these men should
ndorse the policy of a recreant l'resi
lent from whom they had got the par
lon that each of them carried in his
jockct. Nor is it wonderful that such
uen as Gen. Forest should preside over
i meeting called to ratify their action, as
le did at .Memphis! He was the author
»112 the Fort Pillow massacre —where brave
nen—Union soldiers and officers, rfter
laving surrendered, were butchered by
lis orders. Having all quarters denied
hem !
The August convention was intended
is a movement which should tend to re
itore power, in t'.e nation, fo the old
L)einocra?y of 18G0, of which the North
:rn Democrats and Southern Rebels
were the component parts. This was
all- well enough for theui, and pleased the-
President, whT> was also, at that time,
"ono of them," fur lie ha J supported
Breckinridge for Piesident that year !
But there were another class of men who
could 3co no comfort for them in this
movement. We refer to those who stood
firm for the Union during the war. They
had. been persecuted for their attachment
to the flag—for their devotion Jo the
Union. Their property had been confis
cated, many of them had been banishbd
rom their hames. This class had loot
id with hope, during the darkest day3 of
iur struggle, believing that the arms of
ho Union once victorious, they would
>e, if pot the favorites of the Govern
ment, at Icaßt amply protected from fur
ther annoyance by their rebel neighbors.
Had the lamented Lincoln lived, this
would undoubtedly have been the case.
He had made an effort at the reconstruc
tion of three Itebel States. In each of
thefe, Tennessee, Arkansas and Louisia
na, he had iQtrtysted the work of recon
struction to men of known and tried loyalty.
But alashis death was th« death war
rant of loyalty in the Scuth. Under some
infernal influence Mr. Johnson conceived
the idea of reversing this policy, and
placing all power in the hands of rebels,
uuder Mr. Seward's theory that "we must
trust them." It is uot wonderful that
this policy soon placed the loyal minori
ty at the mercy of the rebel majority,
and re established a reign of terro
throughout the whole couquered territo
ry. Loyal utterances were suppressed,
and the true men of that section were
placed in a worse position, if possible,
than during the war. For the purpose of
taking council together as to their safety
aud interests they culltd a convention to
meet rn Philadelphia, well knowi.g, as
the National Intel/'igenctr frankly ad
mitted, that such a convention could not
assemble in any city in the South. The
city of brotherly love gave them such a
reception as their cause deserved.
The border slave States—as we used to
call them—also sent delegates, who took
part in the deliberations of the couveu
tion.
At the same time the free States sent
some of their leading citizens to welcome
them. Upon the whole, we doubt wheth
er Philanetphia was ever before, favoted
with such a vast urniy of talent. The
Southern convention was called for the
purpose of deliberation. Their North
ern friends met them for the purpose of
friendship and encouragement. Unlike
the August convention, where no speech
making was allowed, where nothing was
in order Out the adoption of some reso u
tions and an address, both of which had
been prepared and oven printed in Wash
ington City. The most full discussion was
allowed, and the greatest latitude for in
dividual opinion. The result of their
deliberation showed all united in their
belief that the present policy of the Pres
ident, has detarded fraternity aud recon
struction. The border State uicn, wish
ing to fight it out on the line of battle
(narked out by the Republican party, as
embodied in the constitutional amcnu
ment, while the Gulf States seem to be.
lievc impartial suflerage necessary to their
safety. The resolutions and address are
worthy of a careful perusal. We look
upon this movement of our Southern
friends as a favorable one. It is an evi
dence which we have not had heretofore,
that we have a goodly number of true
men in that treason cursed country, who
will yet, under thejnfluenee of a friend
ly administration redeem it from the
curse of treason By frequent inter
change of opinion we will be able better
to understand their true situation, the
necessities under which they labor, and
to adopt the policy of the Government
to suit it. In the meantime they deserve
the active sympathy ot all loyal men.
Some of the projccdings of the Con
vention will be luund elsewhere. We
would gladly have given them entire
would our space permit. They pre wor
hy of a careful study.
Ilcpitlllicit llH Itsilly ! ! •
We hope our Republican fyends wil'
at once make a united effort in the cause
of the Union. But three weeks from
next Tuesday the Union men of Penn
sylvania, Ohio and Indiana, will be called
upon to meet the enemies of the Union
at the polls, headed, this time, by the
President of the United States! and
backed by his vast patronage.
The October election, now so noaj, is
one of iuomeutous importance, not only
because it involves the question as to who
shall be the governors chosen at this elec
tion, and who shtill represent us in Con
gress, but : ts effects will be telling on the
November elections soon to follow.
Our party has been the victim of moU
wanton treachery in New York, t the
hands of Wo. 11. Seward, Thurlow
Weed and Uenry J. R-.ymond, Our friends
there feel quite sanguine however.—
Should the majorizes in the October elec
tions be overwhelming, their effect will be
most wholesome on our sistc r States. Let
us make an earnest effort, not only for
our own sakes, but for theirs.
liriog out your neighbors and friends
to our meetings, just called by the exec
utive committee. Let us have good meet
ings with thorough organization, and all
will bo well.

Sliiill Dcsepters Vote ?
We had a law of Congress, on our stat
ute books last year, forbidding cserters
of voting; but there was no pains or pen.
alties attached. Last winter, the Senate
of our State originated a bill to give ef
fect to the act of Congress by giving di
rections as to how to carry that law out,
and affixing proper penalties. It
was promptly passed by the House.—
The provisions, most essential, are found
in the Sheriff's proclamation, which will
be found in our paper this wei-k. Let
our friend; road them, and see to it that
they shall be enforced. Not only is the
person offering to vote liable to punish
ment, but also the eleotion officers, as also
any person advising the violation of this
most patriotic and just law.
AH Jurors, Suitors, persons notified,
by Rule or Citation or otherwise, to ap
pear at our next Court, are notified that
the September Term will commence on
the 4th Monday, the ££4th day of Sep
tember, instead of the 3d Monday as
heretofore announced, and they will make
their arrangements for attendance ao
cordingly,

VERMONT AND MAINE
ALL RIGHT!
The Green Mountain State has nobly
responded to Presidential dictation. At
her annual election last week she rolled
up a majority of 25,000 for tire Repub
lican Cause and against Presidential
treachery, being a gain of 5,000 votes
since list year. The President has not
a single friend elected in the State Sen
ate ajid but a faw in the House.
We expect news from Maiue bef.ra
going to press
S.nce writing the above we have receiv
ed news from Maine,
"GOOD NEWS & TRUE."
She has eleeted, not only her Ilepub
lictn (iovernor—Gen. Chamberlain—by
a large majority, but has elected her en
tire delegation to Congr-ss by increased
majorities. So goes the verdict of the
people on " My Policy."
On this page our reaoers will be
find an "Xtrtc' of the President's speech
made at Cleveland. Following it, is an
extract of a notice of it taken from the
leading paper of the city , also a speech
of Senator Chandler, of Michigan, deliv
ered in Philadelphia. They are all worth
a perusal. We are not aware that his
friends claim for the President the ex
cuse heretofore offered for some of his
blunders—that of intoxication. The dis
gust which all must feel in his recent ex
bibitions of vanity, and malignity" must
be the tuorc unqualified and intense.
WafGen. Nye, in his speech in New
Jersey, before leaving for the Pacific
slope, said that uo conservative would
ever bo sent to represent the country
est of the Plains, that every reverber
ation of the wires, brought him instruc
tions to stand firm. The following dis
pnteh received by Gen. Hamilton, while
attending the Philadelphia Convention,
crntirms this statement:
Son Fritnrisco, S'pt'inhrr I. Hon.
.*( J Hamilton, of Trxns, (cure of Hon.

A New and Grand Fpoch in Medicine!
DR. MAOGIEL is the founder of a uew
Medical System ! The quaiititarians,
whose vast internal doses enfeeble the
stomach and paralyze the bowels, must
give precedence to the man who restores
health and appetite, with from one to two
of his extraordinary Pills, and cures tho
most viruleut sores with a box or so of his
wonderful and all-healing Salve. These
two great specifics of the Doctor arc fast
superseding ull the stereotyped nostrums
of tHe day. Extraordinary cures by
Maggiel's Pills and Salvo have opened
the eyes of the public to the inefficiency
of the (so called) remedies of others, and
upon which people have *o long blindly
depended. Maggiel's Pills are not of the
class that swallowed by the dozen, and
of which every box full taken creates an
absolute necessity for another. One or
two of Maggiel's Pills suffices to place the
bowels in perfect order, tone the stomach,
cieatos an appetite, anu re.ider the spirits
light and buoyant! There is no gripiog,
and no reaction in the form of constipa
tion. If the liver is affected, its func
tions ire restored; and if the nervous
system is feeble, it is invigorated. This
last quality makes the medicines vftry
desirable for the wants of delicate fe
males. Ulcerous and eruptive disoases
are literally extinguished by the disen
fectant power of Ma-ifiiel a Salve. In
fact, it is here announced that MAOOIEL'S
HILIOUS, DYSPEPTIC AND DIARRHEA
PILLS cure where all others fail. While
for Hums, Scalds, Chilblains, Cuts and
all abrasions of the skin, MAGOIEI.'S,
SALVE is infalliable. Sold by .J. MAG
