Uui'ii Jim tlie Fuiii-lh Conyrensiunnl
l),'.frirt : A loiiijand Mtcccssf ul career
iu crime emboldens Ihe guilty. A re
cent illustration of this Jaw of human
nature impels me to violate my life long
rule ot conduct, and for once to notice
a political (-landerer. I do not, uow
ever, address you for the purpose of re.
pelling biij innuendoes or falsehoods.
My life has been passed among' you, and
if its record, familiar to you all, does
not reped them, 1 hav-s lived in vain.
My purpose is simply to pierce the mail
of ill.goitten gold in which the blander,
cr has clothed himself, and give you a
glimpse at the loathsome object it pro.
tects.
The papers of Friday announcing; that
Simon Cameron, of Dauphin county,
was serenaded by bis friends on the pre.
coding eveniug at the Oirard House in
fhis city, and availed himself of the 01.
easioti in vilify luy colleagues and
myself, ''the Congressmen of Philadel
phia," in a speech to hij assemblage.
1 was but a youth when I first heard
tho name of Simon Cameron, and it was
as the perpetrator of a great ciime. He
bud been made the agent of tlie Gov
ernment to carry a large amount of
Money, due them, to tho Winuebago
Indians, and had taken advantage of
their ignorance and helplessness to en
rich himself. Those of you who had
then attained to manhood, though you
may not, after tho lapse of ho many
years, revive the burning indignation
with which you regarded the infamous
swindler ot tbe poor Indians, willduiiht.
less remember that iusUiad of paying the
specie which the Government coulided
to him for the purpose, he retained it
and gave tlieui the notes of tho Midday
down bank, of whioh ho was an owner.
At their encampmeut iu the remote
wilderness fhcijj uotes were utterly
worthier';?. The Indians could uot use
thtiL lor any purpose there, uor carry them

have never seen reason to id. odon

the Know. Xpthintf, or the liejmblie.m
Parfv, for ho has in turn di.v'iMced the 11
all, bo lias never been false to his criini
nal instincts, lie has endeavored t)
turn them al! to profitable account.

den to this avarice. an'
j j1(J
measures honors by the prerji;:siu's they
expose to bis erasp. lie has no eon'i.
dence in the people and is aware that,
they distrust him. His speech on
Thursday evening was not characteristic
of him, for he is prone to use of instru.
merits. His habit is to point the stilet.
to, but to employ another baud to drive
it home. 7hoimh an active participant
in the polities of the countrv, and State
for more than half a century during
which long period he has pursued the j
profits of ollioe, of jobs, ol contracts, j
with eager and careless assiduity, he has .
never dared to riermit bis name, to be 1
presented to the rrople ot county or
state as a candidate tor an elective office.
He crawls to the feet of the appointing
power. He cues not who may be. Jving
so that he may "still be Vicar of Dray,"
aud to that end he chaffcrcs with, aud
corrupts week aud needy members "of
Conventions and the Legislatures of
both parties.
1 need not recite the disgraceful lacts
attending his several canvasses for tr.e
United States Senate. Their nauseous
odcr lingers in your nostrils to this hour.
In the lirst he iumjlit the votes of three
Democratic) members, and in the last bid
Uiiity thousand dollars (or the one vote
which would have elected him. 'ihe
last transaction was so flagrant that the
legislature was eon'.pelled to take cogni
zance of it. and il'justice b . not bane as
