Senittor Cowan's Defense.,
- Hos. Edgar Cowan bai reached-9 his
borne at Greensburg, Westmoreland `Co.,
where he intends remaining for a . few
days, preparatorf j to starting out on a
campaign tour through the State, in the,
course of • which be is expected to visits
Erie. Oa Tuesday overlies, in accord
ance with the general wish of his neigh._
bore and friends, be Addressed a large'' ,
meeting in the Court Tfous . e at Greens
burg, in the course of which he took oor.
mime to review and defend the leading'
erects, of his Senatorial career. MI
speech, of which we find the following ab
stract in the Pittsburgh Post, is one of the
best we hsve seen in a long period, and
should be attentively read by every voter
in the country. '
AN ATPICAL TO TON PEORii.
Senator Cowan expressed his gratifica
tion at seeing men' of both political par
ties present. Ile had never doubted that
his public conduct would be justified and
sustained,by his constituents and by the
American people. He bad never spoken
or written a line in 'his defence, hoping
that a fit time for en appeal to the reason
of the people would • come. An appeal
has been made to the reason of the chi
sel:3B,of thirty•six States, and that appeal
will be sustained and the government of
our fitbers as it was trawl:eked to us will
be banded down in all its purity to those
who are to come after us. The speaker
then referred in glowing terms r.) the
power of this government; it was power
ful beyond all ancient or modern repub
lics and empires,,and w-u'd remain so if
we were a united people, and at home
preserved peace and . tranquility. To do
this Ewa* necessary we._ all should yield
eqUiribing V/ PIO pre-conce.v-a
opinions on the attar of the country,
that the wounds of the nation' may be
healed. ,
PARTIES AND MI WAR
Mr. Cowan then went Into an examine•
tion of theihistory of the parties in con
nection with the war. In the 'hands of
ambitious men, , he declared the Union
party had become a Disunion - party. He
was elected to the Senate as the candi
date of the People's party, and not as an
Abolitionist. At that'time the Republican
party was not an Abolition party, but
sirnpiropposed to the extension of slavery
into free territory. Ha found when be
entered the Senate, two sets of men in
the Republican party who dffered as
widely as Democrats and Republicans.—
One set was composed cf Abolitionists,
who had no party among the people, but
whose constant cry was that the people
must be educated up to their radical
views. The other was composed of motl
erate men. In the excitement of tbe
war. the little knot of reckless agitators
managed to push themselves to the pout
and then we parted company.
VIII WAS POLICY 'MI ADVOCAIqD.
When the country beame involved in
war, be was in favor of 'making it a war
of the people. He recollected the
Democratic party constituted half the na
tion, and he would do nothing to alienate
them from the great end in view of re
storing- the Union. The Democrats had
to help fight and they would have to help
pay the great debt. Re would never do
anything . to divide the-country, but the
Abolitionists bad done all, in their power,
by bringing forward radical measures, to
force the Democrats into a position of op.
position. They had got up measures for
this express purpose. They pursued' a
policy . calculated to divide us at the North
end injure us at the South among the
people, for when the war broke out the
majority of the Southern people were for
the Union. ,The negro was the last ques
tion that ought to have been thrown in
to politics. Thousands of - good .Union
—en South, looked at slavery from a dif
ferent point from what' we at the North
did. The Radicals pursued the very policy
to strengthen, Jeff. Davis—and he had no
doubt the main strength of the rebellion
lay in the effect of Radical policy at the
Andrew Johnson said to him in
'the Senate, in rarer: ing to tho rtiattionts.
that they were taking the very words out
of the mouths of the Union men at the
South, when they defended the people of
North. The Radical demonstrated to the
South that left Davis vtas correct in his
statement of the abolition purposes of the
Northern people. When neg roes
. were
captured i n the war, he was in favor of
heating them as other people who might
los captured ; but Congress had passed
laws effecting their status; laws intended
to go into r peretion where our armies,
two hundred thons"find 'strong, could not
penetrate.
LItiCOLN AND JOUNION.
Mr.• Cowan then referred to the position
of President Lincoln, and showed , bow be
hsd resisted the Radicals from the be
ginning. and that be had been as bitterly
opposed by Stevens, Sumner, Wade, Win
ter Davis and others as Mr. Johnson now
is. 'They managed to drive Mr. Lincoln
from point to point, and if be hadifer
thee resisted them the Radicals wove, pre.
pared to sacrifice the government i self,
Only three days before he issued his
emancipation proclamation, he declared
it to be as absurd as tbe Popes bull against
the comet. The speaker then went into
an examination of the doctrine of State
suicide. He compared in absurdity to
the doctrine of bank suicide or the suicide
of a turnpike company. nail the officers
of Pennsylvania died to-day the State
would still exist. The State •cannot die.
The ordinances of Secession did not effect
them. He-then took up the reconstruct.
tion policy initiated by Mr. Linooln, and
carried out by Andrew Johnson. He
showed that the position of these two
statesmen wait • identical. He explained
at length the action of Presidents Lincoln
and Joh • •a in regard to Louisiana, and
lIE
SERVER
troMoil the origin 'f the New Orleans' riot
to the machinations or the Radiosls. The
President had po more to do with them
than any of the audience. Mr. Lincoln
invented the present method of recent.
struction. 13e it good or bad, Mr. John
son had no more responsibility for it than
an executor - for the debts of an. estate
he is called upon to settle. Oct this point
he challenged discussion at all times and
with soy person., He cared.not to meet
the riff raff; but bring On your Summers
and Wades and Stever Res. He defied any
one tri.show thitt Mr. John / non had done
anything in opposition to !the policy set
forth thy Mr. Vpoolts. Hi bad no pbjeci

their principles, but they must not call
him apostate
TOR SOUTWAND BOUTURN FLOM:
Kr. • Cnoran, next referred in graphic
terms to the sufferings of the*Southern
people The only thing that could create
a sectional party in this country was
slavery, and slavery being abolished, we
could all now stand together in promot
ing the power of the nation, lie showed
that the fundamental error of the Radio
ale was their fear of trusting the people.
They do not take them into account at

the beet and purest plan would be for

they did in old. Whig and Democratic
times.
.11r, Cowan then reviewed the theory , of
SenstorFessenthm its bis report from the
famous Committee of Fifteen, that the
people of the South were not fit to be re
stored to their former relations to the
government. If that was true, then in
deed the Union was gone. He character
ized the clap•trap cry about admitting
bloody banded rebels back to their old
position under the government, as silly
balderdash. What was the war for but
to bring them back ? The war was never
made for conquest. So Congress declared
1861. Was mot that enough ? What
-good would a war for conquest do you 1

WWI 7111 twasta a 11110! man.
The South has be i m punished sufficient
already... When that section invoked war
it suffered all its horrors. The speaker
here pictured the condition 44 the South—
ern people—their poverty, an& the uni•
vsrsal mourning in every household. Yet
Congress proposed to punish. them turther
by depriving them r. t all their civil rights
in the government. Why were not the
leaders punished then ? it was asked, The
speaker then sheered whole ,fault it was
that Mr. Doyle bad not b •eh tried. lie

President was not the person to try them.
This duty belongs to the humblest indi
vidual as well as to the highest. If you
wish Davis punished, try ,him according
to law. Indict him by a grand jury. and
then trrhint before a petit jury. If you
convict him or other rebels, then comes
in the province of the President, as an
executive officer, in -the exercise of the
power of clemency if he thinks proper to
use it. The reason Davis had not been
tried was well known. Judge Chase, the
very leader of the radical fanatics, bad re
fused to do so, when asked by the Presi
dent, although, he indictment was laid in
his (Chase's) district. Judge Underwood
had offered to , try Mai. He would be
well, tried by that man, if the attempt_
was made. It 'Underwood licedin Greens
burg, he might(-possibly be considered
competent for a petty magistrate, but he
would have to take good care ofhimself.
Judge Chase don't want the question of
the legality of secession and the extent of
State rights to come up for settlement
before him, and the reason is well under
stood. The question is surrounded by
difficulties the people doilbt understand,
and the Itsdicale do not intend they libel-L
-AU the Radicals advocated secession be
fore the war. What was the position of.
the men who declared " the Union a
league with hell and a covenant with
death ?" Were they not secessionists ?
At this late day to hang a man for acting
out their doctrine would be too much for
even a Radical stomach. That is the rea
son Judge Chase does not want to tty
Jeff Davis. The Radicals are fearful' of
their own records on this question.
RDPVIDLIZ'ANB STAND DY TOE PRUIDSNT.
lir. Cowan urged upon the Republican 1
party to stand by the President. He was
a good man--a wise aiid.honest man. Ile
is a safe man too, and will do nothing
rashly. If we do not follow his guidance
what leaden; shall we folio*? Shall we
submit to the leadership of Stevens and
Sumner? Are, they safe men Why,
Judge Scott, at the Republican meeting
yesterday, had repudiated them as leaders:
Thaddeus Stevens was and always bad
been a dangerous politician. Do you re
member that buck-3hot war he got up and
engineered? It was precisely mauler to
the war now wage.kby,o Radicals upon
the rights of the South In,renresentation.
In the toluteetnn, war Luis atteuipu nss
made to exclude representatives from our
Legislature, who had been duly elected.
until Stevens was chosen to the United
States Senate. But'the attempt had been
thwarted by the deternitnetion of the
people, precisely is this attempt will be
frustrated. The Radicals hope, if ibs
South is kept out, they will maintain their
p.nition in control of the government,
and that is the secret of their opposition
'to representation, He was personally
friendly to Essays. Stevens and Sumner
and with alb the members of Congress, but
he would not for millions follow the lead
of such men. They believe in negro
equality, and the speaker could not be
lieve with them.
Tan TUTUILI Of TEZ ZIECIRO
The speaker next entere I into an ex
amination of , the condition of the negro
race of the South. He believed the ad
vocates of social and political equality for
the negro were the wrrst enemies the
negro bad. They cannot compete with
the white race. Since the war commenced;
it was estimated that one, million negroes
bad perished, because thrown out on the
world, without thektuidance of a master,
they are as Chilfille b and could pot f a c e

to 91 inches in the white race. His fate

thought,for in thirty years, probably, none
of us will be filing. But we will propagate
ourselves, and live again in our children.
With the negro it is different: Unaccus

children, now that they are deprived of

thrive, the race will in ,tithe become ex

now, but must fight. out his own way in

with a race that bays everathing as low
and sells everything as high as possible.
Throw the negro into politics_ and what
chance would he stand with You, or any
other white man? Tile same law that
sweeps away the Indian, the Bushman
and the Australian will govern the negro.
and drive him before the all powerful
race, into mere oblivion, The speaker
here referred to the m .ntal and phrsiolo
gical peculiarities of the negro. What

Yet that wan their condition in their on
land. Hr. Cowan referred to the fact that
the ahr3wd and intelligent among the.no
groea themselves were opposed to the at
tempt to thrust their forward in politics.
He said that when fie moved to amend•
the bill regulating suffrage is the District
of Columbia by confining its exercise to
white men, delegations of influential and
prominent negroes waited on him, arid
thanked him for his motion.. They did'
no.. want to vote for they appreciated
the inevitable effect of being brought
into political contest with, the dominant
race..
WUO aurroar ; tin PRIM/MN?
Mr. Cowan urged the Union men to
stand by their trusted and tried leaders.
in 'this emergency, and not wander off
after such strange Radical gods ae Stevens
and Sumner. Of the leaders of the Union
party in 1860, William H. Seward was an
earnest supporter of the President. Was
ha not a safer adviser than Charlet Sum
ner? Secretary Welles, than whom co
American stood -higner in Eorope,hecause
of the genius be bad displayed in build
ing up our nevy - ta be •the wonder of the
world, stood by the President. So did
Secretary hfcCullouglai one of the first
financiers of the age. Who was now strug
gling to get us out of 'the financial diffi
culties into which Chase had involved the
country. Stanton stands by the President
too, and endorses everything he does.—
And where is the first military man of the
world—where does General Grant stand
On these questions of reconstruction
With the President. The last we hear.of
General Grant is his receiving, in company
With the President, the Congratulations of
the committee of the great Philadelphia
Convention. You will recollect how he
was assailed by the Radicals, when be
went South and, reported Upon the condi
tion of the Southern States. Lieutenant
General Sherman was with the President
heart and soul. ' This he knew more de
cidedly than he knew of General Grant's
position, through Eying. of Ohio,
Sherman's father-in-law, one of the most
able and influential supporters of' the
President's policy in the Union. Sher
man Was with the President with all his
great and characteristic earnestness of
purpose. So was Ord, Sheridan, Hancock,
and in fact every general who had acquit
d• himself as a thorough soldier. One
o a f your erns generate--uue ut the bravest
of the brave—who had been shot through
and through, and round and round—Gen.
Richard Clutter, stood firmly by the Pres
itlent in his great work of reconciliation.
But what military men were with the
Radicals? Why, every sham general that
served in the army—every pole with a
cocked hat stuck on it—all the Butlers
and Schwas. Every fellow who blew his
own trumpet, and carried h . newspaper
correspondent with him to write his blood
less battles up—every general who made
stump speeches—all these fellows, as a
matter of 'course, are with the R adicals
and very free in denouncing the Presi
dent. 11l was generally understood by
the audience-that Senator Cowan, hi his
description of the sham generals who train
with the Radicals, bad Geary especially in
his mind's eye, and the cheering, and
laughter of the audience grew uproarious
as be opened his batteries of ridicule and
denunciation on the hero of Snicker
villa ] •
Those who adhere to the President is
his pol.cy of peace and restoration, have
with them the patriotism and intelligence
of the whole country, North and South.
We have appealed tchhe people. and the
speaker believed the appeal would be tri
umphantly sustained. But, if we cannot
get the victory—if this Ra,,,lical rule is to
continue to afflict tll land—there is some
thing in waiting f rus worse, far worse,
than all the horrors of:the late war.
Tat RICIIIDT.
Mr. Cowan next proceeded to diaowis
the remedy for the disorganised condition
of the country, and the certain preventive
of the greater evils impending in the fu
ture. This remedy was very simple, and
lay in a faithful adherence to the plain
provisions of the Ccnstitution. Each
State has the undoubted right of repre
sentation ; not only that, but it was the
duty of every State to send representa
tives to Congress. The States lately in,
rebellion were entitled by the law dam
- a law voted for by one of the gentledien
who addressed the meeting yesterday—
they were entitled by this lew to fifty
eight renreientatived in Congress. Obey
the law, by admitting the representatives
already elected to seats, and that ends the
whole trouble and gives" peace to the
country. But Congress says the people of
itettiP a llieY% - lig ta gad 1,9 Vdrsll7:
thens of te — xatiOn, without being repre
sented. Of the three co-ordinate depart
meats of the Government, two of them,
the Executive and Judicial, have decided
that the Southern States have been re
restored to their practical relations to the
rest of the Union. The President has
recognized them as States in and of the
Union. The Supreme Court has done the
name thing, and in that august tribunal
the States lately in rebellion are regularly
called, and casesa i rising in them beard
the same as thcitglt arising in other
States. But Congress refuses to recognize
these Estates, and adrcit them to represen
tation on the broad, flat ground that the i
states and the people of the states are hot
entitled to representation. Matt doctrine '
is the dictritie of dissolution—of disunion
—of anarchy. If we keep these people out
of the Union we throw the country into a
state of anarchy. It is your right, equal
with their own, that they should be rep
resented. When I address the Senate, on
behalf of the people of Pennsylvania, I
have a right to have—it is your right—
that there should be twenty more Sena
tors there. If they bad been theta., the
wise and =dente in Congress would have
had the lead in shaping legislation, in
stead of the noisy and fanatical dema
gogues who now tide the legislation of
the country.
Mr. Cowan concluded by expressing the
hope that we may be able to restore the
Union of our fathers. That achieVement
will be glory enough for this generation.
The report we have given in no respect
does justice to air. Cowan's eloquent effort.
We have been able to do little More than
present the leading points of sin argument
elaborated by him in a speech of two
bones' duration. He concluded amid
holly outbruatit of applause. "Three

did not get tnat position, he now turns
on the President, and like the whole pack
of disappointed officia seekers, eases his
disappointment by villifyiog him. So great
was his anxiety for the appointment, that
he requested a Democratic friend of ours
to ask us to say nothing through the
Madman, in regard to his position as a
friend of the President, for tear that the
Radical papers would raise a howl about
it, and the fanatics in the Senate refuse to
confirm his appointment if made, lie as

and that class of men who were keeping
our country divided and in trouble."--\

A GOOD AND TWIN Attecnors.—We were
told by a workman in one"of the foun
dries or machine shops in Harrisburg, the
otner day, of an anecdote worth repeat.

who had been a decided Republican for
years, was observed one day to be highly
excited, talking to himself, and occasion.

passionately threw down his tools, and
started across the room_ towards a fellow
laborer and a Democrat, muttering pro
fanely, that he'd stood it long enough,_
and lie'd be damned if he'd stand 1
longer. Ms renew workmen who had -
been watching his .Motions,_and suppos

he was about •to commit violence on his
Drmocratio friend, rushed up to prevent
a fight,'and were just in time tohear him
exclaim " he'd been a Republicati all his
life, but by Heaven, no wet of pcilitioians
should ram the nigger claim his throat.
Here, Jim, give U 9: your fist." SO the
threatened tragedy proved to be the end

Oasaava the fact—not a Geary organ • in
the State dazzles being in favor of negro
suffrage ! Geary himself does not deny the
charge ! Their whole cry is—" Oar plat
form don't say anything--about negro
suffrage—for that ain't an issue now." It
don't matter what the platform says, for
that can be pitched overboard, like the
Chicago platform of 1860, even if directly
against negro suffrage—which it ie not.—
But it does matter what the Geary organs
and Geary leaderti say. Their views and
utterances constitute the platform and
principles - of,the Geary faction, and they
are all far nesse suffrage and equality. , They
do not and dare not deny the tact.
IN a speech at Lancaster, Pa., the other
day, Mr. Thaddeus Stevens came down
severely on the President, whose nomina

posed from the start. Mr. Stevens thinks
nations are 'punished by Providence for
their crimes, end that Mr. Johnson is
sent to us because the nation does not do;
justice, A year ago the Republican leaders
thought Providence gave us Mr. Johnson
as President as a token of especial favor,
and that the mild policy of Mr. Lincoln
was to be departed from. We are afraid

Jutactottei Dthstos.— At an examination
in one of our young ladies' seminaries the
other day, the question was put to a class
of "little•onee," who makes the laws in
our government ? Congress, was the ready
reply. flow is Congress divided ? was the
next question—but the little girl to whom
it was put failed to answer it. Another
little girl in the class raised up her hand,
indicating that she could answer it. Well,
said the examiner. Miss Sallie, what do
you say the division is ? Instantly, with
an air of confidenCe, as welt as triumph,
the answer came, "civilised, hall civilised,
and savage." •
