SENATOR HUNTERS GREAT SPEECH AT POUCH
KEEPSIE, IN NEW YORK.

We hasten to spread before our readers the mastery
speech made by Senator Hunter at Poughkeepsie New
York. Wednesday last 1t is plea for the federal
Union which will orcbly remind the reader of those great
intellectual efforts of Daniel Webster which gave him
worldwide fame. Mr. Hunter appeals to the judgment
and the hearts of the northern people, and they be
given to anatca blindness his arguments and his
eloquence viii produce telling effect upon the prospects
of sectional dsunionsm Whilst the southern view of the
slavery question is presented by Mr. Hunter with
mate power he does not indulge in eliminating remarks
that be offensive to the sensitive northern mind
He does not to tell the people Of the North that
disunion will follow necessary consequence OF the tri-
umph Of Fremont but he them in terms Of the ofi-
est eoquence of the danger to be apprehended from
donaism and carries the appeal home by presentation
of the advantages of the Union TO the North which utterly
seaers TO the winds the usory sophsms of such dema
gogues Speaker Banks. There are passages of Mr..
Hunters speech which will be universally admired equal
in submity Of thought in power of language and in ee
walton OF patriotism any that fell from ancient
modern orator. II did fear that religious bgotry
and deusion had obtained dominion Of too many north
minds, should confidently predict that who
reads Mr. Hunters speech could vote for Fremont But
is there is much Of calm dgnifed earnest
servasm running through the entire argument and there
much Of lucid statement OF facts and logical demon
straton Of reasoning that look for much good from
general perusal.
