Mv Fellow Citizens It has been iny pride and pleasure frequently to xillude to the greatness of our country. :md thepros Iierity and happiness of our teople. The sun of heaven never shone on a jeo ple so prosperous and happy as we were two years ago. Our pcoplo, from three millions had increased to thirty millions. From a little line of opu!atioii along the Atlantic, we had grown and spread until our Miores were washed by two oceans. We had stretched out our arms from the lakes uf the North to the Gulf of Mexico. We embraced every quality of soil and every kind of production. The sails of our commerce whitened every sea, and the happy American tar, standing uion the deck of his vesnel. looked proudly up at the stars and strqes floating gloriou.-lv above him, and felt that in that flag he had safety and protection everywhere. Around every fireside were contentment, happ:ness suid plenty. Hut what is the scene that meets our eyes :it the present time? From the plow ami frum the an vil from the physician's otlicc and from the hulls of justice we are hurrying to arms. The Union has assumed the apicarance of one vast military camp. The t;ix gatrnTcr, too, will soon be upon us, to wring from us our siirstyi.ee.. There are grave and important questions for us to decide. How can we return to that hai pinos and prosjvi'.ty which we oeuv en joyed I would an.swer, it can only lie done by enforcing everywhere the Conli tntion as it is and the Union as it was. N hatevcr tuiiount of power is necessarv. ami in whatever form, to enforce that prin ciple, ought to lie and must le emploveil. A rebellion embracing thousands f our former Icllowwiiizens now :irrvyed in arms ag-.unst tlie govemiiient must le put downi by force of arms. And at the same time that this is being done for the reln-llion in the Suth, that class of our fellow-citizens in other parts of tlte country who are see king by other moans tiwui those of cannon sliot and baytnets to d.-.-tn.y the govern ment, must be driven out if place and jwwer. and other men, who will acknowl-.-lge their obligraiotis ami jK-rform th ir duty to the country, must le put in their pi act's. To accomplish that object depends i:jin you aiiM ujkui me, tiu more ujtn von than upon me. You will have to begin the work riiiht LeTe, If i have nl ready lK-giin this work, as I trust in (Jod you hae, let me urge you to keep It up l.y evcry means in your jower for, rcmcni Ikt, the goveniment, the very existence of the country dep-nds ujxin iL I am aware, my lollow-citizens, that those jK?rsons who have deivived you heretofore will endeavor to do it jegain. Tliey always promise what your interests seeMi to demand, but their performance is very oor. Ix-t us inquire a little into the past his tory of these men, and see whether they deserve to lx? trusted for the future. You rememler tliat a few years ago we warned the jieople that" the formation of scctiony.l parties was dangcrotr to the Union and the Constitution. You will n-collect that these men thin sneeringly ssiil to us that we were 4 Constitution ami ITnion sjivers." They tild you then that all our talk about danger to the Union and the Constitution was the merest braggadocio. They as serted that there was no d inger of the South st ceding that you could not get them out of the Union their slaves wouhl up and murder them. Well, we did not find that exactly the case, did we ? These men cheated you then, didn't they ? Some of them cheated themselves: others, and by far the largest portion of the party, did not, altliough they cheated you. Well, we passed along as usual, and what turned up next? When there began to be signs of trouble in the Southern country, we conservative men stepped for ward and said, " Ixt us compromise." Thev replied, " No ; we will never com promise with re!els in arms!" They pro fessed the profoundest contempt for the Soutli said our women should go down there and drive them all together into the Southern ocean it was a mere breakfast spell. Again they cheated you. Again they proved false prophets, and, like false projJiets of old, they ought all to be stoned to death. Cheers and laughter. Xo ; they would not compromise. They wan ted a little blood-letting it was absolute ly necessary for the future peace. They said it would not come to much ; these people down South would not fight at all. And when at length your President called for an army of wvrnty-five thousand men EBENSBURG, PA. WEDNESDAY, AUG. 20, you were told that they would make rapid I work ot the rclfelhon. It was to be an hihilated at a single blow. So said these men. Well, how does the matter stand now? We have alre;idy mustered in six hundred and ninetj'-three thousand, and still there is room for more. Laughter. Ah, my friends, these men were never more mistaken in their lives than when they assumed to place such a slight value upon the strength of the relx-liion and the courage of the jieople of the Smth. It is no particular credit to any American to say that he will light ; that is one quality that is common to the whole American race. They have always displayed that characte. istic wherever they have been. These men, therefore, when they told you that Southern jn-ople would not tight, either did not exactly understand the sub ject, or they wilfully misled you. Well, w hat next ? They come now, after they have found out that the South ern soldiers will tight, they come to you again and cry, " We have Ijeeti mistaken this time, but we have it now just arm the negroes, and the work will Ic finished in short order." Fellow-citizens, as often as I hear a man talk in that way, I come to the conclusion that he wants to lind some excuse for changing the issue so as to get some one else to do the fighting. lie don't want to volunteer. I-uighter.j No man of common intelligence can be in duced to l-lieve tiiat the negro, naturally an inferior race, and deb:iscd by ignorance :is he is, can ever cunsp-te with the whit; man iijmhi the battle lie'.d. airy more than lie can anywhere else. Set them against each other, three to one, and the white man will bo all the time the victor. In Mexico where our soldiers fought a mixed nice, they wer- victorious on every battle field, although ouinuinliered in the ratio office to one. Now, if the African is afraid of anything on this earth, it is giiupiwder. Iu what estimation can you hold that man who tells you that the lib erty, indejendenv and cousntuti.m il gov ernment of the country depend upon a few miserable, ignorant, cowardlv neirrocs? We have a pipulutioii of twenty millions of w hite jM-ople. ami immense wealth : properly directed, we are capable of In-at-ing any army the world ever saw or ever will mi, and lie who h:is the effrontery to say that we cannot maintain our govern ment without the help of negroes utters a li'oel upon the American nation. It is f;iNe that slavery is the cause of the present unfortunate-condition of things. The cause does not lie then-: it lies in an other place- The mischeviou-; legislation of these alnilitioi lists in Congress is the cause and the only cause. I sjw ak plain ly, but I sjioak precisely what I think. Now. one thing: When we met one year ago in Cotigrss, loth branches pledged thciiisches that the war should 1h prosecuted for the preser vation of the Union and the Constitution, and for that ah Hie. All of these alioli tionists either voted for the resolution which was adopted einl Hiving that senti ment, or ran out of the House to avoid voting at all. Well, the resolution was adopted. Tlie President issued his -aIl for volunteers, :uvl six hundred ami nine-tv-three thousand ru-hed to arms, upon the faith of the solemn pledge which Con gress had given to the p-op!e. Time rolled on, and sneress st'iiied to smile ujhmi our efforts. Our Western armies had won great and glorious victories. 'Hie Southern people were still diided. Just at this juncture Congress meets. Tlie dominant party goes immediately to work to undo all the wise legislation of the call ed session. Every projiosition that is brought forward is for the negro. It soon became apparent that the majority in Con gross was no longer Ijound by the Consti tution. I n.-t cat 1 of coming forward with measures of p-ace and conciliation, they come with confiscation, tin and sword, and by these measures they at one fired :uul united the hearts of the Southern people. Thus far we conservative men had gone ha ml in hand with these hypocrites, in good faith : but here we left them. We parted from them with great sorrow and pain. Then it was that I became satisfi ed that the majority controlling Congress meditated the destruction of the goveniment- that they preferred a divided gov ernment, with the chances of pow-cr and plunder. History is full of examples that go to show that governments an never destroyed by moans of either rebellion or foreign foes without some fault upon the part of their own rulers. You may turn to the Scriptures and you will find numerous in stances in point. Tlie children of Israel were not, nor could they have liecn, divi ded by the wickedness of Jeroboam, the son of No bat. who rebelled against the government : but it required the mad folly of Itcholjonin, their rightful sovereign to divide them. c When the wise men who had been for many years the faithful advisers of his father came to Kchoboam and endeavored to icrsuade him to respect the rights of all his subjects and administer the govern ment without partiality to any, his an swer w as: "My father 'lashed" you with whips, biu I will lash you w ith scorpion, and my little linger shall le thicker than my father's thiglu" From that .lay for ward Israel was a divided kingdom, "si torn of its gloty and of its power. This last Congress has done for us, as far as was in their power, the verv same thiiv that Kel loiioam did for the Kingdom of Israel. As I have said lefore, one year ago then was a large Union sentiment in the .South. In view of this fact, w hat should have been our policy ? Should we not have endeavored to convince these people that beneath the Hag of their country all their rights of property were secure ? I do not know how you are going to recon struct this Union without fome basis to place it upon. Such b:isis we might have had in this strong Union clement at the Smth. Who does not know that two thirdsof the seceded States were carried into the wickedness of secession absolute ly without the consent of the cople and against their will ? The hearts f these jxsple wen for the old goveniment, in which they had alwavs trusted, and the old constitution, which they had always revered. Suppose our policy had len to foster and cr-ourae instead of dri ing off that Union s.-n:i-lueiit. There would hae Ih-cu no anuv in the field to-day. liut in lieu of that lolicy of conciliation which would have Ik-cii our salvation, we adopted the mHcv of meeting tin-in all with tire and swoni, and the fat:d consequences :uv not vet all told. Now, I agree that it is ri-ht and proper iu every government that, when voii put down rcl M'liion like this, you should pun ish the leaders, but no government ever adopted I he juiiicy in relation to the jh t ple themselves that ours has. A lew vt ;:;s ago the Hungarian n-U-lled against Aus tria. That is one of the most despitic goeinm-n;s on the fatv of the glolte. Ilie g ;v eminent succeeded in oerthnw ing ii.-.; relfc-'lion how ? They executed a few of the leaders, sent the remainder into exile, and passed amnesty to tiie n-si-due who were nt leaders in the reln-llion. There never was a go eminent that has not uniformly let the burden fall upon the leaders, w hile the great mass of the eople were iKTinittod to n't urn ami resume their allegiance to the govt-nuuent. And I will venture to assert laat if, after the battle of Fort DtHielson, the government had adopted this piliey of conciliation, there would have Int o no rebel annv in the field to day. Hut instead of that lo ing the c:ise, they are at this moment con fronting us with an anny more numenus and suju'rior to our own, and weareconi jhJ.'.hI to call for moiv volunteers. Now, the volunteering now going on, in iew of the doubt alnnidy east iqtoii tl:- subject, stands f;ur; but it is evident that our jieo plean not rushing to anus with the spirit and in such mmilicrs a- they did w hen the former call was made, w hen there was a hope that the war was to lie conducted upon more humane and cen -ervative- prin ciples. In this State ami in Illinois we shall pn'mbiv succeed after a w hile in raising our quota of volunteers, but in many of tin States they will Ik- forced to draft. The Cmgrcssional legislation of late has been fatal to us in every wav. I hear a good deal said now and then about I lie "statesmen" of this IJepubiican larty, but I have never liecn able to put my ringer ujKn any of their statesman ship. I have served along with them in Congress, and I have found it invariably the case that, whenever any man called by their name ln-gins to rise to the posi tion of a tine statesman, they crowd him out t.f the ranks. Take Mr. Cowan, of Pennsylvania, as an example. They hate that m:m worse, and denounce him more bitterly even than they do me ; for they say Hichanlson is an old sinner any how, and they do not cxject much of him. I am afraid that when the future his torian comes to write of our times, as he will do, he will group these men, with re spect to statesmanship, and will say, Here is a set of one idea fools, who jer mitted the government handed down to them by their forefathers to fall to the ground mther than give up an absunl no tion which could never be realized or car ried out. You cannot administer government suc cessfully with one idea, ami let nie tell you that these men, when, in the pursuit of their one idea, they conic to make the negro do everything ami liave everything, dwindle down? do'wn, down, until they 18G2. become totally incapable of anything like j tnie statesmanship. Last winter w hen I saw my venerable friend liore from Ken tucky, together with Mr. Crittenden men who had been associated in days gone by with Clay and Webster and lienton occupying seats ujion the floor of Coiigrecs amongst these intellectual pigmies and one-idea men, the ioetry of Mooit sug gested itself very forcibly to my mind :is leculi:u-ly applicable to their situation : I feel like one who triads uloi.e. Some banquet hali deserted. .fled, W hose lights are gone. wh"se guesta are And all but he departed." When we iass into the age of history, as we soon shall, I fear that not oik of all the n'pn-sentativc of the 11 'publican par ty now- in Congress will ever have leen found to have produced a iapor to have been guilty of a thought that is worthy of the great cause ami the great interests that are committed to their charge. Now, if you send these men lwck to Congress, the history of the Republic is written. Our tlays are numlien'tl. and we are iiumltcrcd with the pist. Infamously, ingloriously, w ithout a stniggle, we iassed away, and became ' a school-boy's tale the wonder of an hour." I have heanl a gtvxl deal said aloot the " conservative Republican-" in Congress." These so-called conservatives . are excel lent men, judging them by what they say : indeed, they full- the lict to vote so badly of any set of men I ever aw. We did think at first tliat your lcreMn:ative from thi- Congressional District would vote with us all the time, but we were sadly dIsapoiiite:l when the lime for talking asset! and he was called ujton to vole. Tliat is the way with a!! th"se men. For a time tlry wouhl make gttl 1'ivon sjtecches. talking toVrably ctn.'r ative all the time, and voting juM exactly like Ijovejoy and his friends. I came to the same conelu-ion alfiit these "conservative" Republicans that a Yankee oiw canielo in n-ganl to the Sia mese twins. The Sianics fvius had come to Uo-ton, and the oil Yankee bad paid his niiim v and went into the show. He examined tie liganvnts th: t b mud the young men togeth.-, and. n sn as he had sa'isfied himself that it wa- a n-al thinir, and no humbug, h said, 44 Well. I rather guess them fellows are brothers." Just so, my fellow-citizens, I liave len compelled to conclude that '; so ": servative " Republicans and Allitioiiits an brothers. Cheers and laughter, j One is aliout as liad as the other, it. it there is any dilil-rence, it is in f ivor of the Abolitionists. Lov. -joy avowed hisjio'.icy. I like a 1oM man. It he is wiong in principle. I can at least admire the cour age which enables him to aow himself. 1 always could nni.-rstand Lovejoy, but I never could understand your Rcpn-senta-tive from this Congressional District. I-iughtcr. If, during the last Pn-sidcii-tial election, these " eonser ative " Re publicans had avowed th- sentiments tli.-y expressed by their vote's, the country wou!d not liave liecn in the conditio:! it is at pre sent. Now, let me urge you, if you an' going to send Republicans to Congn-ss at all. let us have the full-blooded Allows, ami none of these nu n w ho talk one w ay and vote another. I know Ijovcjoy will not cheat me. I hate to le cheated, so I would rather have the fu'I-b'tod."d Altli tionists to ileal with. I und rstan I their jsition. Tli- danger of the country arises not fnm these men. liecause you ui strip them : but it arises from these " conscrvativis," f;ilcly so called. Tliere is a class of men who an always very busy who go about the country de nouncing every man who does not agree with them as a traitor to the country. You talk to one of these men, and a-k him what he is for, and he will tell you, if he tells the truth, that he is for diverting this war from its legitimate object, so as to make it war of emancipation. Ask h:m then "Arc you for the Constitution ?" He will answer, "Oh.no: the Corsti tution is played out ; the Smth has over thrown the Constitution." Sir, that man is no more nor less than a traitor, and whenever it ltecomes his interest, no mat ter where he may be, North or Smth, East or West, he will betray the country. Such men occupy a double relation. In the first place they are cowards, for they will not enlist in defence of their principles ; and, secondly, they are traitors to the Constitution of their country, for thy de clare it is no longer binding ojioii them. Now, it's plain that if we wait for such fellows as these and ftr the negroes to put down the rebellion, we will all die Kfore it is done. When this rebellion is put down, it will be put down by men who are devoted to the Constitution and the Union. One thing i? ccrtarfi if the Republi can? mintin the rT in Congress, our VOL . 9-NO. 37 government, with constitutional liberty, it zone forever. It you return to the next Congress conservative men, u are anxi- ious only to preserve tlie Constitution, we are safe, and the old ship of state will Uuid in a safe luirltor, where we run find pntecton.- 'Hie rtake we are playing for now is in fmhely greater than we ever plaved for lk.rv. If the Republican arty' is n tai fed in power in Congress, we ar "one. If w. semi a dinerent cLis of men. tLcv can but lose all, and they may sav e ulL This m::ch I will say for Illinois w intend to maintain our ground in that State. We sluill advance our line somew hat : anl I think that when we shall come to pre sent these great issues to our leop!e, duty to th-. dead, duty to ourselves, and duty to those w ho are to come after us, w ill rally amund us men enough to drive most of these men from Cor.grcs? in the State of Illinois. Oik thing I know will be done Ote i- mil l jirt nttd. It will be presented in no cow:irdly truckling spirit. It will le presented by men who are not afraid to sjteak their sentiments, with the panoply of American -itia-n around them.
