Speech at. . .0n Wednesday, Sept. 13, Gov. Seivard spoke as-follows at Madison, Wisconsin : FELLow CITIZENS : It • is 'a bright September sun that is shining down upon us—such a sun as nature, pleased Willi the rettiewbrtinbe of her own beneficence, seems to delight in sending forth to grace the close of a season which has been crowned with abundance and IntiirianCe - , .unkiib*la even to her An Piortiseitbsa. It is such a.sun as nature, pleased with seeing the grovith of a noble, capital in a great State, may liii supposed to send, out Co - illiminate and to make more efful gent the maghitiectit btaiitie9 of ilie Once on-which we are. assembled. It is such a September swam we might almost sup pose nature: sympathizing With the eff ..,.:.-. Hof good men,-lovers "of liberty!, atittotis ' ..r secure their cwn freedom, to perpetuate that freedom for the enjoyment of their posterity, and to . extend its blessings Ithroughout the whole world, and fur all !generations, may have - sentiorth in token of sympathy With siiblf a noble race.— [Applause.] But, fellow-citizens, brig,ht tied cheerful as this hour is, my. heart is oppresed. - and I tim tillable at {nice to Eft myself above tile s; driest bt recent scenes and painful recollections. I obeyed the 1 commaed of the Republican peop'e .Of Wisconsin to appear before them on this, the 13th day of September, and as . I ap proached the beautiful seaport, if I may so call the city that crown: the shotes of' ' Lake Michigaii, - and affords entrance to , this magnificent State, I bad anticipated; because I had become habituated to a welcome that should be distinguished by the light of a thousand torkthes, and by ' , the voices of music and of cannon.• lint the angel of death passed just fore me 'on the way,. and instead ofooisteps ,' lighted with the greeting of Chu :anda:of 1„ my felluts-e,iti - zetts, I found only a thiek j darkness, increased, as only nature's dark" nets can be ; by the weeping and walr ing of mothers for the loss of phildred-i and refu_ing to be comforted. I have been quite unable to rise flow that sud den shock ; to forget that instead . 'of the voice of a kind and merry and genial wel come, I heard only mourning and lamen tation in the streets 1 50 rmsardaittilifiuiiriuumln To you, perhaps, the scene scents somewhat foreign, because it occurred in jour bcau:iful seaport; but it was not merely a municipal calamity. It is a calamity and disasier that befalls the State, and strikes home dismay and hor ror to the bosoms or all its people, tor these were citizens of the State who have perished, and those.who survive are the mourners ; the desolate widows and or phans wile a:e bartaved. Let me, before I proceed, take the liberty to bring this subject home to the State authorities of Wisconsin and to a 4; and to implore that nothing may be left undone, if there is yet anything that can be done, to rescue a . single sufferer from that dreadful - cal amity, and to bring to the comforts of so cuttlife, and of a sontid, good; rdigious, and public education; the orpilaird are left to wander on the streets by the lake side. 13=23 leeilow citizens it is a political law— and when I say political law, I mean a higher law [cries of" Good '."[—a law of Providence, that empire has for the last thee thousand years, S 9 long is we have records of civilization, made its way con stantly westward, and that it must con• tinue to move on westward until the tides of the renewed and of the decaying civil izations of the world meet on the- shores of the Pacific Ocean. Within a year I have seemed to myself to follow the track of empire in its westward march for three thomsnd years. Lstuod but a year ago on the Hill -of Calvary. I stood., after ward on the Pius of Athens. =I Again I found myself on the banks of the Tiber. Still advancinr , westtiard i I rested under the shade of the palaces of the kings of Englanti,and trod the streets Of the nirw renovated capital of France. From those copitalsl in de Inv way at last to Washington, the city of establish ed empire fof !elle' present generation .t men, and of influence over Me' destinies, of mankind. [Applause.] Empire moves far more rapidly in modern than it did in l'uncient times. The empire established 'at Washington ., is , of less than 'a hundred j years' fortration. It was the empire of thirteen Atlantic'Ainerican States.. Still , practically the missir'of that empire is fulfilled. The power that directs it is ! reidy to pass . away from those,thirteen i States, and although - held and exercised trader the settle Constitution and national form ofgovernment, 'yet is now inthe very act of beilip transferred from the j thirtem.States Last of the .Alleglisny.

It is Only to be done by maintaining the Democratic system of government.— There is no other name given under, 'Heaven by Whin, ih this generatiou, na tions can be saved from, desolation and rain, than Democracy. This, to many denservative ears, w'ut.ld seem a strange propositinh, and yet it is so simple that hiek the power almost of elucidating it. Lo'cik at England. She is ambitious, as • she may well be, find ought to be, to return th r at dthniniun, reaching into every part of the. habitabie globe, thich she neil exercises. She is like to do it, too, and May do it, by reducing, every successive year, the power -of her aristocracy;• and I introducing more and more the popular element of Democracy into the acniuis- j tration of our government. .. I In many respects the Government. of England, though more aristocratic ; is still lead monarthictil than our °On. -The British Empire exists to-day- only by re cognising and gradually adopting the great trtith . .tbat if the 13iitish Empire is to stand, it is the British people' who are to maintain that Empire and enjoy aed !exercise .it. France, the other great European power which seems to stand firmer now than ever, and to be renewieg l her career 'of prosperity arid France, under the form of a despotism, has adopted 'the principle of universal; suffrage, and the Empire of France to-i day is a Democracy. The Austrian Rio -pire is falling. And why? Because Democracy is rising In Germany to wand the liberatitn of the people of its various nations; and the exercise of .uni versal suffrage. And Italy 'to-day, all I along the coast of the Mediterranean, is! rising up to.the dignity of renewed na tional 'if., by adopting the principle of universal suffrage and the limitation ,oli power by ilit..action of the Whele Teople. Now if the Olu Wald,' where' Govern ment and Empire are entrenched'and es-'I tablished so strong in hereditary aristoe rady,-eo Empire gun stand except as. it, yields to the Democratic prindiplet look around over the United States of Ameri ca, a:.d say how lung you can hold these ; §taTes' in a ;Caere Union or maintain, one common authority or Empire liere extent on the principles of Democracy r! Therefore, it is that, 1 say, that -you of! the Northwestare, above all things, first, last, and all the time, to- recognize as the', great element of the Bepublic, the - sys..l tein add principles of Democracy. But, fellow citizens, it is easy_to talk about Democracy. I have heard men' prate of it by the hour, and admire it, and I shout for, it, and express their revesenee, for it; avid - yet IhaVe seed that they DeV er-eomprehended the simileSt.element of Deoweracp.
