At tlie Chicago Convention.
(j i n i !.i:-ii:n y thk Convi:nti n : I
thank you fur the high honor vuu have
cord'erred upon mo, in making me. 1 Yer-i-!ent
of this body. The importance of
the occa.-ion has nhondy been cxprissed
in fitting words by your temporary Chair
man. 1 have not language to tell with
what anxious solicitude, the people of this
country watch our proceedings. The
prayers of men and houk'ii in tin thou
sand homes go up to heaven that we mav
be k guided in our deliberations that our
action may conduce to the rc.-loiation of
our Union, to the return of peace, and the
maintenance of liberty in this hind. Ap
plause. It is not for me to forecast your
action it is not for me to say what meth
ods may lc adopted to relieve this aiHictod
country of ours. Hut while I may not
speak on that subject, I can, with propri
ety, allude to the sentiments which ani
mate you all. There is no man here who
does not love the Union. Cheers. J There
is no man here who does not desire peace.
Cheers. There is no man here who is
not resolved t'j uphold the great principles
of constitutional freedom. Applause.
I know that the utmost importance at
taches to all your proceedings. I know it
is of vital consequence that you should
select ku'-Ii men, as your candidates, as
enjoy the confidence of the America!! peo
ple. Hut beyond platforms, and beyond
candidates, there tire other considerations
of still greater significance nn 1 import
ance. Whin you wi.-h to know what the
policy of a party will be, 3-011 must strive
to learn the passions and sentiments which
animate that part'. Four years -ago, in
this cify, there was an assemblage of cit
izens from the different parts of our coun
try, who met hero for the purpo.-e of plac
ing in nomination 11 .candidate for the
Presidency. They put forth declarations
that they would not interfere with the
rights of the States of this Union. They
tlid not intend to destroy our country
they did not mean to break down its insti
tutions. Dut unhappily they were influ
enced by sectional prejudices, by fanati
cism, by bigotry, and by intolerence, and
we have found in the course of the last
four years that their animating sentiments
EBENSBURG, PA. WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 14, 1864.
have overruled their declarations and their
promises, and swept them on, step by
step, until they have been carried on to
actions from which at the outset fhey
would have shrunk away with horror.
Even now, when war has desolated our
land, lias laid its heavy burdens upon la
bor, when bankruptcy and ruin overhang
us, they will not have union except upon
conditions unknown to our Constitution ;
they will not let the shedding of blood
cease, even for a little time, to see if
Chri.-tian cliaritj' or the wisdom of States
manship may not work out a method to
save our country. Nay, more than this,
they will not listen to a proposal for peace
which does not offer that which thisCov
ernm?nt has no right lo ask. This Ad
ministration cannot now save this Union,
if it would. It lias, by its proehinmtion.
by vindictive legislation, by displays of
h'te anil passion, placed obstacles in its
own pathway whieh it cannot overcome,
an 1 has hampered its own freedom of ac
tion by unconstitutional acts. It cannot
he said that the failure of its policy is due
to the wan of courage and devotion on
the part of our armies. LC'neers. Never
in the world's hi.-tory have soldiers given
up their lives more freely than have those
of the armies which have battled for the
fag of our Union in the Southern States.
The world will hold that they have done
all that arms can do, and had wise States
manship seenro.l the fruits of their victo
ries, to-day there would have bet n peace
in our land. Much applause. Put
while our soldiers have lesperalely strug
gled to carry our banner southward to the
Cult" of 'lexico, even now the Govern
ment declares that rebt llious discontent
lias worked northward to iha shores of the
great lakes. The guaranteed ri -.lit of tin
people to boar arms has been suspended up
to the very borders of Canada so that
American servitude is put in bold, contrast
with Driti-h liberty. This Administration
thus declares to the worll it has now n
faith in the people of States whoso votes
placed if in power ; mid it n'so admits, by
such ( diet, that those peeple have no faith
in this Administration, while those in
power, with jut remorse, sacrifice the hloo 1
ami treasures of our people, they will not
give up their own pas-ions for the public
good. This Union is not held a-.-u::der
by military ambilion. If our political
troubles could be referred to the pe;,-efal
nrbitram- nt of the contending armies in
the field, our Union would be restored, the
rights of States would be guaranteed, the
sacred ness of homos and persons ntraiii
respected, and an insulted Judiciary wou'd
again administer (he laws of the laud,
le t not tin; ruin of our country be charged
to our soldiers. It is not due to their
teachings or their fanntiei-m. In mv
constant official intercourse with them, I
have never heard uttered one scniimuit of
hatred toward the people of the South...

ident. Cheers. There ,ire no hindrances
in our pathways to Union and lo peace.
We demand no conditions for the restora
tion of our Union ; we are shackled with
novates, no prejudice-, no passions. We
wish fur fraternal relationships with the
people 01 tlie oulh. (Applause.) We
demand for them what
we d -mand for
ourselves the full recognition of the
rights of Slate?. We mean that every
star on our nation.- banner shall shine with
an equal luster. I,i th,. coming election,
men must 'decide with which of the two
parties into which our people arc 'divided
they will act. If they Vi.js fur iVion.
they will act with that parly which does
now and always did love and reverence
that Uieon. If fhey wish for pence, they
will act with those who sought to avert
this war, nnd who now seek to restore
good will and harmony among all sections
of our country. If l;i(.y care for their
rights as persons, nnd the saeredncss of
their homos, they will act with those who
have stood up to resist arbitrary arrests,
despotic legislation, and the overthrow of
the Judiciary. (Ind and continued ap
plause.) If, upon the other band, they
are willing to continue the present policy
of government and condition of affairs,
let them act with that organization which
made the present condition of our country.
And there are many good men who will
be lol to do this by their passions and
their prejudices; nnd our land swarms
with placemen, who will hold upon power
and plunder with a deadly grasp. Dut,
as for us, we are resolved that the party
who have made the history of our country
siz.ee their advent to power seem like some
unnatural and terrible dream, shall be
overthrown. (Applause.) Four years
ago it had its birth upon this spot. Let
us see, by our action, that it shall die
here, where it was born. (Loud and con
tinued cheerjng.) In the political contest
in which we are now engaged, we do not
seek partisan advantages. We are bat
tling for the rights of those who belong to
all political organizations. We mean that
their rights of speech shall be unimpaired,
although that right may be used to de
nounce us. We intend that rights of con
science shall be protected, although mis
taken views of duty may turn the tern
pies of religion info theatres for partisan
denunciation. We mean that home rights
and the saeredncss of the fireside shall be
re-pocted by those in authority, no matter
wiiat political views may be he'd by those
who sit beneath their roof-trees. When
the Democratic parly shall have gained
power, 'we shall not be less, but more te
nacious upon these subjects. We have
forborne much, because those who are now
charged with the conduct of public affairs
knew but little about the principles of uur
Government. We tire unwilling to pre
sent an appearance of factious opposition.
Dut when we shall have gained power,
thnt official who shall violate one principle
of" law, one single rinht of the humblest
man in our land, shall be punished by the
full ri'or of the law; it matters not if he
sits in the i'rosidenliul chair, or holds a
humble offj'-o under our Government.

that our proceedings will lie marked by

It may be in till probability it is true
that the future destinies of our country
