Speech of Col. John W. Forney
DELIVERED AT LANCASTER, PA., AUG. 2cl
The resolutions being adopted, Col.
John W. Forney was introduced to the
erecting and received with tremendous
applause. He said :
OLD FRIENDS AND FELLOW:CITIZENS :
It gives me sincere gratification to ap
pear before you on this impressive occa
sion. however the circumstances by
which we are surrounded may sadden our
hearts, it is cheering.to one filtizi o nryself,
who has been buffeted by the 'varying
winds of fortune, to come, back to his old
stamping ground and be welcomed by
such a demonstration as this. [Applause].
The spot whereon I stand is filled with
peculiarly pleasalt associations to me. In
this very neighborhood I began life as a
printer boy, and within the circumference
of fiver six hundred yards I published
two newspapers, advocating certain defi
nitive principles, up to the period of my
removal to Philadelphia. Situated as I
now run in another sphere, I often look
back upon this old [owe with singularly
agreeable feelings. I remember the old
court house, which seems, at least to my
eyes, to have been removed by some rude
arid wanton sacrilege from the spot where
it so long stood. I remember the old
signs which used to look.down upon use
iron' this Centre Square. I remember
the men who are guile—names honorable,
names never to be forgotten, names always
to be cherished. 1 remember tuu, gentle
men, that on one occasion, in April of
IS ti, in this very place, and probably
troth this Very stand, I participated in the '
reception of a distinguished citizen who
came back from a foreign land, bearing,
as we supposed in his hand, the olive
bratich that was to still the troubled waters
and make us all peaceful and united.
Strange to say, you, wry venerable friend
[lir. .11 uhlenherg], also presided on that
interesting occasion, and headed a vast
throng, olpeople who welcomed this stlt) s•
man back to his own, ho tie, indulging
with them the hope that he would be the
saviour of his country. Your presence,
as chaisman of this great meeting, to-day,
is a suggestive comment upon the man
ner in which this high expectatioh wage
disappointed
Remembering these -call
to mind how 11111 try of you, now before ine,
p'edged yourselves to his cause, stood by
turn through the succeeding controversy,
aided to elevate him to the Presidency,
looked with pride upon the, commence-
Merl t of his Presidential career, and rested
content in his integrity and his patriotism
These recollections are pertinent to tbi's
occasion. Their revival certainly cannot
offend any man who is the friend of his
country. And Ido not believe it) that,
philosophy which restrains the utterance
of essential truth in a dark and dismal
-hour like this, lest it may give offence to
some tender gentleman who hesitates
whether lie shrill
-stand by the flag of the
stars and stripes, or by the flag of the
rattlesnake and the scorpion [Hear, hear,
and cheers.] How the distinguished
gentleman, to whom I have alluded as
being thus honored and thus elected, car
ried out the pledges he made to the peo
ple of the United States, and confirmed
the expectations entertained in regard to
him, you yourself; Dr Muldenburg, have
fearlessly state I in your opening address.
The page that records it is now being
written with the heart's' blood of sonic of
his own neighbors and friends. [blear,
hear ]
Gentlemen, the occasion that has called
you here to day is to contribute of your
pecuniary and physical wealth to the
maintenance of the Union and the pro
tection of the Republic, and I propose, in
the few words I shall say, to devote my
self to the object ofsecuring unity among
all the people of the free States to these
ends. Our trouble is not, thit we have
not a good cause ; not that we have not a
gallant army ; not that the wishes of all
patriotic men are not with us; but that,
with all these advantages, we conceive
we can go on discussing the various issues
involved, embarrassing, criticising, and
interrupting the operations of our consti
tutional leaders, precisely as if we wt re
in the midst of a profound peace. And
many honest, linen lull into this blunder,
without thinking that they are being tills;
led from a high public and conscientious
duty by partisans, who desire to create a
division among the people of the free
States, in order to bring about a disgrace•
ful peace, and reinstate to power the men
who are now fighting against the Federal
Government. (Cries of That's it.")
If the veil C at conceals the„seorets of''
every household could be lifted, Mr.
President, we should find that one lesson
of life, frequently taugnt to ourselves, has
as frequently- been impressed in lasting
characters upon others hearts. Differences
between brothers and sisters; between
wives and husbands; between parents
and children—differences that have ruin
like a bitter stream through many years,
aro checked and closed' forever, when the
Angel of Death passes over the stricken
threshold. As the long-alienated kindred
meet at the bedside of the dying father,
mother, brother, or sister, and behold the
tranquil spirit prepSring to wing its way
to the throne of God, that spirit often
implores, with dying accents, that peace
may descend upon the divided circle ;
may relight the -tires. of love on the chilled
hearthstone, and warm the bosoms too
long .. estranged. Ilarely id
s. this innova
tionineffectual. The tears shed for the
parting soul mingle with those that recon
cile the,separated living, •and.the
long lacerated by its„ i min etriferr,• joins
hands in token - of peiiiettial affection over
the•bed-or death. • • •
Mr. President, ourcountry is not dead,'
nor, let us hope, dying . ;
.but she is tied
like a martyr to it stake,- and is, surroun
ded by " a wild- • and - many= - wesponed
hrong, ". There is a, i shade. Of gtieflipon
her brow; her sufferings are great, I'o
her. wounds are 'many. ',She, sees with

own generous breast, and, in imitation of
Him who bled upon the cross eighteen
hundred and sixty-two years ago, she ex
claims, through all her taws and signs,
" Father, forgive them, fur they know
not what they do."
Turning from these degenerate children
she appeals to us. She tells us that her
reliance now is upon those who have been
always loyal and true; who have return
ed her bounties and blessings with a con•
Rant gratitude, and have rewarded . her
trials and toils for them by spreading be
fore her eyes the triumphs of their g'nius
and the trophies of their industry. (Ap•
plause.) But, as she calls us to the rescue
she bids us, first of all, be at peace with
each other. Methinks I hear her divine
accents now ! " Obedient yon have been
to me, my children ; you made
yoUrselves a wonder among the nations;'.
you have • builded a government unparal
led upon earth, but you have not bt , en
united among yourselves; you are not
united now. Oh ! let your bleeding coun
try, your mother and your friend, your
guardian and your stay—Jet your country,
in this her darkest hone and her direst
strait, implore you to cease all dissensions,
to seal up forever the pestilential foun
tains of party, and to move in serried
array to her defence. There is only one
other power, sir, that can in 'la) a more
irresistible appeal—that power which
speaks in thunder from the skies Shall
we, then, be deaf to the voice of our
eountry, when we feel that that country
is almost commissioned to speak the voice
of God himself ?
Sir, I plead for the unity of the free
people of the free rates. Meat II cavernns
why should they not be consolidated into
one vast, overpowering mass? Look at
the rebellious South! The atrocious crimes
and the inhuman objects of the conspira
tors, so far from creating divisions among
them, have produced a unity, not a unity
of conscience, but a unity of or;ranized
arid savage fanaticism. They seen) to be
inspired by the demon desperation, which
made Macbeth exclaim

These bad then fight against a good
Government as if it had not been then
best-mid most constint benefactor. They
are driven upon our bayonets in drunken
and infuriated thousands. Our flag to
them is the emblem of infamy, and our
UMon a covenant of crime. Frou• their
:'carts they have blotted the glorious
memories of the past. Every bottle-fief
of die lievolution fills them with remorse.
The tomb of every patriot is .a monument
of reproach. The effigies of Washington,
and Jackson, and Jefferson almost speak
through their warble lips in rebuke of
their sacrilege. And yet, Mr. President,
these people are united.
Behold, sir, what a heritage we are
fighting tor' No, people ever had such a
Cause Not the myriads who went forth
centuries ago to recover the Holy Sepul
chre—not the legions who followed Caesar,
Alexander,and Napoleon. Never—never,
sir, has such o. creed and such a country
appealed to human hearts. ((sheers.)
Mother, over the grave of . your only
son, who died of the malaria or the mur
derous bullet in the swamps of the Chieka
hominy, as you weep for the loved and
the lost, do riot your prayers ascend for
the brave buys he has left behind hire ?
fie you not feel that the stout men at
home should go forth to, succor them ?
And does not your noble woman's heart
swell with indignation at the sight of
party quarrels around your own threshold?
Fit hers, whose gallant lads have gone I
forth to the field, tell me how you regard
the spirit of discord in the tree States ?
Is it not an insult to you, and an insult
to them ? When you are told that safe
and prosperous men shall not pay the tax
that is to support the soldiers of the Re
public, that the property of the traitors
shall not be seized and used to sustain
the army, that their Jarnis and persons
shall be protected by Union bayonets,
that the stout arms of the Southern ne
groes shall not be invoked to save your
own sons froin the dreadful work of the
cutup, the trench, and the fort,-and, above
all, that sordid sympathizers with this
bloody treason shall be permitted to revel
in luxury under the aegis of a Govern
ment they and seeking to destroy, do you
not feel that the day of vengence must
conic to all who, in this dread crisis, le
main indifferent to their country't.i.iiiifrer
ings, and refuse to respond to their coun
try's call? (Great cheering.)
Man of toil,—mechanic,--laborer,-,
hear me! Shall this great, free peopbYbe
brolien up and destroyed, only to gi , atify
your natural enemies—to satiate the ambi
tion of those who denounce you as an in
ferior class ? The world has its aristocra
cies, but none so base and baleful as the
aristocracy of Secession. Its soul and
body are compounded of hatred and con
tempt for Northern industry and' toil.
Born of slavery—resting upon slavery—
living upon it,—in luxury, laziness and
ease, the race thus pampered has become
a race of tyrants, regarding ypt as its foes,
and clutching to its `embrace as natural
allies, the despots of the old world,
(Cheers ) There is .not a traitor' in the
South to day. who does not believe, or, has
not said,,that the ultimate design of this
great conspiracy is to esfablish upon these
shores - a monarchy, or, failing in that, to

address myself. Your candidate has . gone
into the rebellion ; but many who acted
with you are now leading the hosts in the
army and firing the public heart. in civil
life—standinglike heroes by the flag, and
denouncing every man who dares to be
indifferent to the cause of the country and
to sympathize with the traitors. Let rue
name in this connection Gov. Dickinson,
of New York, Andrew Johnson, the no
ble Governor of Tennessee, the soldier
statesman Gen. F. Butler, and in our own
State, such men as Win. Wilkins and
Wilson NeCandless. [Cheers.] They
show their sense of the error of 1860, by
acts of gallantry and patriotism that can
not fail to be felt by all the honest men
who co-operated with them in the Presi
dential campaign. But, oh I gentlemen;
those of you in this quarter who are to
day following the lead of a certain "0. P.

of his newspaper organs hereabouts should
look well at the saute time to the lessons
that are taught to you by the' Breckin

We should hear from him no criticism

tors; no lamentations over the suspen
sion of the writ of habeas corpus ; no ad
vice to the people to resist enlistments
and taxes, and no advice to his friends
-to unite with his foes to embarrass the
GovernMent of the country. _
As my eye rests upon this vast throng,
I recall many of the scenes of other days,
.when, in this luxuriant region, the adopt
ed citizen grew from poverty to opulence
in his efforts to improve the modern
thorougfares of' our noble State. Coming
from a foreign land, he found here a
welcome and a home. Some of the de
kendants of this brave and brawny race
.are no doubt listening to me to day.-
4 ,Aany of them are away in the athletic
columns of the Union army, under Ham
bright, and Welsh, and McCarter.—
(Cheers.) Many have died . in the immi
nent deadly breach, and some have re
turned among you mutilated monuments
of unselfish intrepidity. Side by side
with their German brothers, they have
marched to victory or to death ; the one
shouting the war song of' Schiller, the
other advancing to the exhilarating strains
of Erin-Go-Bragh. There is something
impressive in this practical gratitude of
the adopted citizen. flow hideous the
spectacle of an Irish or German taritor !
(Cheers.) If a native born recreant is en
titled to infamy, what must be thought
of him who, having grown to wealth on
the generous bosom of this country, should
seek to take the life he was specially
sworn to defend ?
Have you ever reflected, fellow-coun
trymen, upon the signal evidence of the
loyalty of our adopted citizens, that there
is not an Irish or a German general in
the rebel army ? (Great applause.)—
What more significant protest could be
uttered against the bloody ritual of trea.
son ? There is no Meagher, or Shields,
or Mulligan, or Corcoran. or O'Brien—
no Sigel, 6r Blenker, or Schurz under the
flag of the rattlesnake and scorpion.—
Why is this ? It is because the traitors
fear to trust our adopted citizens in the
lead'. They drive the Ger.Lans and Irish
at the point of the bayonet in their ranks,
hut when they want leaders they select
frost their slave drivers and aristocrats,
who look upon labor with contempt, and
hold their soldiers as we do our dumb
beasts, as so much cattle to be driven, to
be worked; to be slaughtered. (" True,"
and applause.) But if the oath of the
adopted citizen and his gratitude to his
adopted country restrain him from tread
ing, the hellish labyrinths of the rebellion,
his nerves will be strung with a new re
solve as he casts his eye beyond the seas
and beholds the enemies of freedom pre
paring to assist the stive-murderers in
their war upon this Government. I
have heard the intimation that the best
process to bring about complete unity
among our people would be the interven
Coe of the foreign Powers, and it has
been whispered that some of our adopted
citizens needed this incentive to action
Sir, it is impossible to add to the justice
of the appeal-of the Government to our
own people, and it would seem_ equally
difficult to add to the infamy of the re
bellion. But 1 can readily conceive that
when the despotic designs of the traitors
are confirmed by the intrusion of the ar
mies of Great Britain or of France, or of
both together, there will be a new rap
ture in the strife, a new motive to make
it desperate and decisive, and a new op
portunity for the development of our na

not for a 'higher and a holier purpose
ulate that self-sacrificing spirit which was
exhibited by the French people in the
most fearful period of their extraordina

the work of reforming the abuses of cen
turies of corruption and tyranny they
found arrayed against them the sentiment
of tht European world, the prejudices of
an English king, and the keen, unscru•
pulous intellect of the greatest of English
Prime Ministers. They found an insur
rection of the aristocracy in La Vendee
—they found disaffection and treason
among all classes. Rising to the sublim
ity of Spartan heroism, they crushed
treason at home, and, with bleeding feet
and famished forms, and no weapons but
the pike, they resisted invasion and saved
the honor of their country. The incur=
rection was crushed—the o'd tyranny
wat destroyed—and the sword of a,Re•
' publican general, in a spifit of magnifi
cent revenge, punished the perfidy of his
foes with 'Marengo, Austerlitz, and Ulm.
(Shouts of applause.)
Thus; Mr. President, this may become
the war of the world ; and if so, it may
!prove to be to the enslaved nations of the
earth what the-earthquake, which nearly
!overthrew Lacemon, was to the Helots of
Snarta. For tnis is indeed a moral earth
quake. It is historically stated that
' many centuries ago an earthquake, un
precedented in its viulencet, occurred in
l.Sparta. The greater portion of its capi
tal was overthrown, and it is said, proba
b'y with exaggeration, tb it only five
ho Nes escaped. This calamity did nut
cease suddenly 'as it came. Its'coneus
sions were repeated—it 14uried alike men
and treasure—and ono historian states
that no less than twenty thousand per-;
sons perished in the shock. In the midst
of this flarful convulsion the slaves, whom
the cruelty of Sparta had nursed in her
bosom, resolved to seize the moment to
execute their vengeance and consunnuate
her destruction. Now was the moment
when Sparta lay in ruins—now was the
moment to real* their vengeance. From
field to field, from village to village, the
news of the earthquake became the watch
-7P14 .of.re.Yolts Thu...earthquake- that
levelled Sparta rent her chains Nor did,
the shock create one chasm so dark and
wide as that between the master.and the
slave. It was as if the great mother her
self had summoned her children to vindi
cate the lung-abused, the all•inalienahTle
heritage derived from her, and the stir of'
the angry elements was but the announce-1
went of astern and solainn union haver'
nature arid the oppressed. 151 r President,
the fettered tribes of mankind may hail
the great moral earthquake in this coun
try as the signal opportunity for their de.,
liverance. And the attempt of European 1
despots to destroy this Government may ;
end in their own overthrow, and in the'
disfranchisement of their own oppressed •
and down-trodden millions (Immense
applause.)
At the conclusion of this speech Col.
Forney was greeted with nine cheers.—
Before retiring from the stand a note was
handed to him, which he thus alluded to:
A note has just been presented to we,

I From the Ohrletlan Advocate and Journal,]
General Saniuel D. Sturgis.
General Samuel D wig Sturgis was born in
Shippensburgh, Cumberland county, Pennsyl
vania, in the year 1822. At the age of twenty
he was appointed a cadet at " West Point,"
and graduated in 1826, in the same class with
Gen. McClellan. The same year ho was or
dered to join the army under General Taylor
in Mexico.
He was taken prisoner on the 20th of Feb
ruary, 1847, a few days before the battle of
Buena Vista. He and one other man, while
reconnoitering the enemy two or three miles
from the'company, before reaching the top of
a very high hill dismounted and hitched their
horses, and climbed upwards; but they had
not gone far before the Mexican cavalry were
upon them, and they were taken prisoners.
The report of pistols was heard by Captain
May, who returned to General Taylor and in
formed him of the facts. This eas the first
information General Taylor had of the exact
whereabouts of the Mexican army, which
caused him to fall back and select the strong
position where he gained such a glorious vic
tory, the success of which, no doubt, In a
great measure, is to be attributed to that da
ring undertaking.
Shortly after the battle he was exchanged
as'a prisoner, and left immediately for the
army on a mule, which the Mexicans fur
nished him in place of his own horse. When
over half way he met an aged Mexican, very
feeble, riding on an old mule, hardly able to
e'irry the old man, his wife leading it by the
bridle. As soon as Sturgis saw the condition
of the old folks ho immediately dismounted,
told the old lady to lake his mule, who, after
being seated on it by the help of the stringer,
looked at him with wonder and tears. Sturgis
bowed to the old folks and left them pronoun•
cing blessings on his head Ile walked - the
remainder of the distance to the camp, realis
ing that it was more bleed to give. than to
receive. After the close of the war in Meilen
he was FetA to California, where he remained
two years, performing hard service. After.
, wards he was ordered to " New Mexitio,"
r where he remained about three years, during.:
which time he was engaged in the battle,vf ,
Ojo Calieliate, under Col. Cook; and after
wards coninianded an expedition against the
Indiana gaining a brilliant victory, for which
the legislature, judges, and other distinguish
ed gentlemen in New Mexico passed a vote of
thanks, and a resolution asking the President
to promote him. In compliance with this re
quest ha was commissioned captain. cif. the
First Cavalry, in 1855. In 1856 be was in
the battle with the Cheyenne Indians, under
the command of Cul. Sumner. In 1869 he
commanded a very important
glir.st the Kio.a and Comanche Indiana. Hie
force comprised six companies, and his victory
was signal.
We next hear of him in command at. Fort
Smith, where ho s as posted when the present
rebellion broke out. It was a time of great
'interest to him, all the officers of his command
having resigned and gone South. With a
garrison of two companies of cavalry he
thwarted a well-contrived plan of the citizens
of the city, in conjunction with the governor
of.the state, to take the .post. lie got his
small force ready, and about hilt' an hour-be
fore the governor'S forges arrived from Little
Rock with ten pieces of artillery he withdrew
his command, taking with him all that 'was
valuable, including twenty-five wagons, com
missary stores, etc. For this he was promo
ted to the rank of major of the First Cavalry
in the regular army, May 1861. At the head
of 2 31)0 men he soon hastened to unite and
et operate with the I merited Gen. Lyon, will)
wituni lie formed a junction on Grand Riser,
July 7, and from thence marched to Spring;
field, Lyon commanding. The
_great danger
that threatened our army at, "Springfield at
this time was, perhaps, never realized, only
by those who wyro immediately cognizant of
it. Gen. Lyon Seeming to have a presenti
ment that all would not go well with him,told
Major Sturgis to keep near him, which he did;
and Lyon, supported by Sturgis, led the at
tack in front, while Sigel was to conduct. the
flanking movement. When the general fell,
about a quarter to 9 A. M., Major Sturgis
succeeded him in command.
On taking. command Sturgis convoked hie
officers, and while they were discussing the
probability of retreating a column in front
bearing the United States flag, was seen ap
proaching. This was supposed to be Sigel's
brigade, and they at once termed into line of
battle and prepared to join columns.: but what
a surprise when the enemy opened fire upon
them and showed their true colors. Here
was a dialema. Lyon was dead, Sigel routed,
and the forothi he had engaged in the rear,
now united with their main column, marching
f.rward, and already engaged in deadly con
flict with the retunent of the little army with
a new commander, known to not more that;
half his men. But under all these diecourag,
log circumstances Sturgis, by his own cool
ness and heroism, Inspired his mon with en
thusiasm,lnd led them into the hottest of the
battle, driving the enemy before them, and
then turning on some other points of their
line, he would break and throw it into coo l
fusion, and so continued for three hours, giv 7
ing orders and leading his Men, until the oert
inroad right flank of the enemy. broken and
panic stricken, fell back in disorder. At this
favorable moment, when the antunition of one
of the regiments wan. exhausted, he thought
it best to retreat and having collected the
wounded of the army, he retreated in good
order until they reached Springfield, when'
they were joined by Sigel Believing that
Sigel held the rank of colonel. Sturgis gave
him the command. On the following day they
continued retreating towards Rolla. It was
soon disclosed to Sturgis that Sigel held ne
commission, and he again resumed the corn;
multi. and reached Rolla in safety. For his
services on this occasion he was made abriga.-
dier•getteral. The army hid good reason to:
rejoice that a competent officer was so soon
found after the fall of the heroic Lyon. In a'
letter to the writer after-the battle he stated'
that " it was a hard fought battle,. We drove.
the enemy three times from'the.field.,but ro
.were too far from Or base of -OPeratlani,
without water, end with no reinforceinente."
