ttbicts the nation. The patriotism of the
whole land is evoked for its removal, ami
and for the preservation of the Government.
Causes wide spread and deep, must be re
mjved fr::n the body politic before a state
of former health fulness can be restored.
The actions of the sectional parties. North
and South, culminatiug iu civil war, lie at
the foundation of all our troubles. The ex
istence of the nation depends upon their x
terminati m. These sectional parties are
known as Secessionists and Aboliti-. nists,
and together they constitute the enemies of
the Republic. The loyal, patriotic men of
the nation are those who oppose both these
sectional parties, ami who seek to uphold
the National Constitution and the Uuion of
thee States. Ti.e Secessionists, by armed
Rebellion, seek to overthrow the Constitu
tion, the Union and the whole sovereignty
of the G "vernmet.t. These should be te
Msted, and put down by force of arms, and
to this end hundreds of thousands of our
best citizens have gone to the battle Meld.
The Aboiitiouists endeavor bv insidious,
dw-ccpt: vc and treacLerous means, to destroy
our Constitution, and, thereby, the Union,
by overthrowing, in detail, fundamental pro
v.sioiis in that C. nstituli u, and without
which no free Government can exist. These
enemies should be put down through the
ballotlox.
We, therefore, the loyal men of Philadel
phia, in mass meeting assembled, announce
the following propositions as the basis of
future political action :
1. That the American Constitution aud
the American Union are " one and insepa
rable," an 1 the enemies cf either are the
enemies of both.
2. That it is the first duty of all good
citizens to uphold the Government and obey
the laws, aud that a'.l eiTorts to these ends
will receive an enthusiastic support, and
that we will hold as enemies of the Repub
lic all who, by word or deed, encourage or
sympathize with either Secessionists or Abo
litionists ; and that we will cheerfully ren
der to the orticer? of the Government, actir."
within their constitutional powers, all the
resources at our command to extinguish
these two '-lenitnts of destruction to the ex
istence -if our institutions

Fellow Citizens I rise to sup(ort the?e
i-'so'utioiis, and I would supj.ort. if neces
sary, resolutions a httie stronger. But the
truth is, th.it the time for diseu-.-ion and fir
resolutions has past, and we have arrived at
within six witks of the time wheu we are
to go to the balIot-l..v Hi,d stt!e I hope
forever the question which, for eighteen
months, h;is distracied this country, and in
regard to which so much etl'ott "has leen
made t brirg the grwat Democraiic party
into disrepute. As I understand it. the
Dem'-rratic party is now the majofi ty of the
people f Per.usylvaiii.i. Wc have a mnj. r
ity in the Suite and in the ity. mid 1 be
lieve the neighlmring States "will prove,
when their elections take place, that they
are in the majority ther.
We are within six weeks of the election,
ami that is the oi.ly reis m why the Demo
cralic jarty is s Iou My denounced iu the
llept biioan j.apers, and that : the ras .n
why this meeting has lc-n speeially de
nounced and threatened. I ,J. n' Likiw the
names of the papers. I don't rca ; them :
there are few papers in Pi iladelpira which
a Democrat need read; bi.t I lei:.;;, i p.u
that all Democrats who vei.tu ed ;.. coioe to
this meeting have bi-eu dejoUiJCtJ us. trai
tors. a- uisa!Tectei persons, as men unworthy
of the name of citizen. The only reason of
of that is, that this lVin cratio party is in
the marity, and is aU.ut to take power
from those who hav- possession of the Gjv
eminent.
In the fall, if you do your duty if the
citizens rhrough the State rally to the Dem
ocratic party the only rallying point that
can save the country we sha 1 take power
forever from the li uids of the .islmans.
The R publican papers and ti.e Republican
leaders may well ery out against this nice
ting, or against any m.a:is i f ra dying the
cvuiimtu ii i; , ii 13 int? Kiiti t. their
Iltmotrat ani 5cniintl.
There baa been none, and if they could
accomplish that obj-t, where should we be
with those four millions of blacks turned
loose in the Northern States ? Are we to
marry them ? to work with them ? In
what manner are rftese negroes to le dispo
sed of ? I will tell you. TheseMKr ne
groes, whom th? Abolitionists love less than
you or 3, would have their throats cut in a
war of races, and that would be the end of
this scheme of the Abolitionists. 1 say fur
ther, that more corruption under any Ad
ministratiou than that which now rules was
never seen litre, and seldom seen in any
other country. Look at the fortunes made
iu contracts.
Look at the reports of tlie House and Sen
ate Committees all Republicans and you
will see the evidence that so corrupt a Gov
ernment wa- never managed until Mr. Lin
coln came into piwer. You recollect that
oue of the last acts of the Senate, as uow
co ai posed, was to refuse to pass a vote of
censure upon a Republican Senator, whom
a committee reported against. Who is to
say nay? (Clieens.) What are re told?
Why that Democracy is treason : freedom is
treason ; the press is treason. They say it
is treason for the Democratic party to organ
ize; it is treason to vole against this Al
miuistration, or to do atij thing except to
support the Government and the war, and I
say that the idea that is now givn out that
we are not to organize against Abolitumism,
is monstrous. (Cheers.)
