FATHER KEEPS SPEECH.
Cari,iiqn Friends and FeIlolo Cai-ens


devouty congratulate you that our breth.
ren, heroic men, prosecuted for righteousness
sake, have now returned to our bosoms, On
their countenances we, indeed, trace ndica
tlons of severe mental conflict; but, likewise,
the divine favor in their personal vigor and
health,-and in the flash OF their eye, the spirit
and purpose of men whom in such warfare,
Tyrants cannot subdue, Ia yopr behalf ! ten
der them cordial and joyous welcome, and in
your name / assure them that they are now es-
pecally 6ndeared to us all.
But, beloved sufferers, this welcome is not
intended to cover the fact that you have come
to US jail birds You must ever bear this ap
prlatiOn IL however comforts us, aud i must
cheer you to know, that you have earned the
tie after the example OF the Prophets aud
Apostles, having been Imprisoned for the act
Of witnessing Tor the I't.h as IL is in Jesus
In your persons, at this joyous interview, we
thus publicly acknowledge the giit OF God in
answer TO prayer. In all your confinement,
our sympathies for you have been a deep flow
ing current We have felt called of God to
the special mission of prayer in your behalf-
In the daily reports of your persistency in the
fhe "Right," we have received the rich, sustain
ing answer to our prayer. We have been also
strengthened aud cOmfoited to know that this
sympathy is next to universal in the country
The press has given 1t voice. It's breath, to

fully represented the moial sentiment of this
community, and of our londly cherished Col
lege. Your firmness in this crisis, has shan ply
admonished u for our sluggIshness in the pres
ent conflict for Liberty, and what is more, for
our lack Of moral couragei and still more the
obtuseness Of that moral sense in men which
eounseed compromise
In your imprisonment you have nobly repre-
sented great principle. The Divine Law en-
prems, everywhere Human enaotmenis sub

In the presence Of Shareholders, when Tebuk-
ing them from the pulpit in the South, fer the
sin Of slave holding, have been undaunted
but in the presence Of so much intellect and
sympathy, | strangely fear, and want IN self
possession. In the Democratic papers, we, the
four naturaized citizens from England, have
been denominated "Oberlin Jacks and Don
keys." This feeling and usage from the De-
mocraey has not surprised Us after the Cass
letter. but We accept the title and being Bible
men par excellence, as the Democrats own, we
seek for our character there. Bible dopkeys
were not the degenerate, much abused animals
you find now, but right royal and king bear
ing quadruped We find they laughed TO scoTn
the speed Of the hunter, and swiftness we find
to be their prominent characteristic, We icere
as Democratic evidence shows, for We got to
Wellington, some miles of in 45 minutes.-
Ever swiit and speedy will we be for the right
and for freedom; and il needs be to rescue our
brother we will equal the speed Of the ball
Ia olden times a stream rising from two
mounds sent death and baHenness all along its
course The land that would have smiled with
palm and cedar, and waving corn, was bald and
scared Many trials were made % cure the
barren waters, what failures, what disappoint.

Beloved friends; feel that must say few
words, for my heart is full, with Joy return
again to the bosom Of Oberlin Oberin, IL not
heretofore, now an honor, joy and glory to our
State
And you, my fellow students, who, while this
glorious strife has been waging, have been
climbing the hill Of science, we, who are young
in this little band, tIust that we have made some
progress too; while you have progressed theo.
retically, we have in experience and rigid dis.
eipline. And, youmy beloved classmates, who
have been taught from the mouths of your
teachers, We too have been taught, but by the
silent God-like patience, energy and perseverance,
in the example Of these, my elder brethren,
who have been to us examples of trus men dur,
ing our Imprisonment.
And now, as 1 stand here, my eye rests upon
that little upper chamber, within the prison
walls where we have often sung and prayed
together, and there as We have consulted to.
