mir. LINCOLN IN pAl.r1Monr

The Baltimore Clipper, a Bell Everett paper,
thus speaks of Mr., Lincolns passage through
the 'city of mobs and monuments:p
1.-THE few seceders We have among u.s. have
lett nothing undone to inluIe our city aud State
with our best friends and customers, We know.
They have even given currency to the absurd
story that It will be unsafe for the President elect
to pass through this city on his way to the seat
Of Government, and some of them have declared,
with an oath, that he never shall be inaugurated.
But this is all sound and fury, sgnifying moth
ing. Ten thousand Minute Men of the city, il
necessary will fly to their arms for the protec-
ton of their Chief Magistrate legally and Con-
stitutionaly elected, but we have confidence that
our energetic aud accomplished Marshal OF Pc
lice Will be able to preserve the peace without
the aid of any other force than the men under
his superintendent, and guarantee each and
every unarmed passer through the city on that
occasion, the kindest and most hOspitablc greet

speech Of Senator Seward-one quito sufficient
to satisfy the whole country and completely dis
arm the secessionists-every Baltimorean and
Marylander having spark of patriotism left,

This manifestation of the right spirit. Il
the tone Of the Southern press and Southern
people generally, was as patriotic and law-abdinl
as that Of the Clipper, the difficulties which nov
beset the country could be oil satisfactorily ad
justed in few hours. The whole secret Of oui
troubles lies in the fact that the people of til,
South deny to their Northern fellow citizens tn,
right TO vote for who ever they may think prope
for President of the United States. Let then
but acknowledge that right, and the expression
and maintenance Of it either in the North or tn
South, and oil will be well The forms an,

To any one wins knows little of American
history, it seems strange that the free States Of
this Union should be SO stubborn and upyieldiHg
in their treatment of their more unfortunate
southern brethren. We hear il spoken on all
sides that, having the advantage in numbers,
wealth, commerce aud historic prestige, the
northern States are determined to use this ad-
vantage in depriying the Slave States of their
just and equal rights. 1t is said that the grand
mission of the Republican party is to subject
the South to the dominion Of mere physical
force, and take from them their privileges in the
Republic. Their grievances are paraded at
every turn, and it is made to appear that rights,
privileges, obligations, duties, are due to no
other portion Of the Confederacy. But when
we come to turn them over the pages of faithful
impartial history, this view suddenly collopses
and vanisheS into thin air. Look at the facts
Since the immortal declaration of our hide.
pendence, there have been two real Victories Of
freedom over slavery. In 1887 the government

The next signal triumph Of freedom WAS il
1905, when the African Slave trade was abolish
cd. These two victories are the sum of all tha
has been done, from the eveutful period Of l776
until now.
But, in the meantime, what have been the
victories Of the Slave power' According to til,
assumption Of southern Statesmen themselves
in 1888 slavery was adopted into the Constitu.

The Peace Congress assembled in this city on

Horace Greeley of the New York Tribune, was
a candidate for United States Senator before the
Republican caucus at New York, on Saturday.
Mr.. Greeley held his own pretty we'll, until the
tenth ballot, when he was defeated by Judge
Harris who received the nomination. This
serves Mr. Greeley right. lie shouldhave known
better than to run for an Office. Certainly he is
old enough to know that an editor has NO bust
ness with office; it is his duty to work for his
party all he can make as many personal enc
mics as possible; lose his patronage get into
scrapes and quarrels Of all kinds, and submit to
indignites and insults of every conceivable char
acter, and all for the party, and the success Of
"the tioket;" but lie has no right Whatever to
ask for an Office. That right belongs almost ex-
cluslysly to a class Of persons, vino, with spy
glass in hand and nothing at stake-either Of
principle or interest--watch which way the poll
tical 'cat Jumps" and jump with it, just in time
to be in at the winning moment, with their caps
ready to toss, and their lungs inflated for long
and loud hurrah over the victory. Mr.. Greeley
must have been aware of all this hence he is
not deserving of sympathy from his brethren OF
the press.

Address of Ex-PreSident Tyler at the
Pence Conference.

On the election of John Tyler, of Virginia, as
President of the Peace Conference, he delivered
the following address:
GENTLEMEN; l fear you have committed
great error in appointing me to tho honorable
position you have assigned me. long separa-
tion from all deliberative bodies has rendered the
rules Of their proceedings unfamiliar to me-
while should find in my own state of health,
variable and Sickle as it is, sufficient reason to
decline the honor ofbcing your presiding officer
but, in times like these, one has but little option
left him-personal considerations should egh
but lightly in the balance The country il in
dauger--it is enough one must take the place
assigned him in the great work Of reconciliation
and adjustment. The voice Of Virginia has
invited her oo-States to meet her in council. In
the initiation of this Government that same voice
was heard and complied with, aud the results Of
seventy odd years have fully attested the wisdom
of the decisions then adopted. Is the urgency
of her call now loss great then II was then? Our
godike fathers created-we have to preserve
They built up, through their wisdom and patri.
otism, monuments which have eieraalized their
names. You have before you, gentlemen, a task
equally grand, equally sublime, quite 0s full of
glory and immortality. You have to snatch from
ruin great and glorious Confederation, to pre-
crate the Constitution. If you reach the height
Of this great occasion, your childrens children
will rise up and call you blessed. confess
myself ambitious of sharing in the glory Of ac-
complishing this great and magnificent result,
To have cur names enrolled in the Capitol, to be
repeated by future generations with grateful
applause, this is an honor higher than the noun
tains-more enduring than monumental alabas-
ter. Yes, Virginia's voice, as in the olden time,
has been heard. Her sister States meet her this
day at the council board. Vermont is here,
bringing with her the memories of the past,
reviving in the memories of all her Ethan Allen
and his demand for the surrender Of Ticonderoga
in the name of the Great Jehovah and the
American Congress. New Hampshire is here
her fame illustrated by memorable annals, and
still more lately as the birthplace of him who
won for himself the name Of Defender of the
Constitution, and who wrote that letter to John
Taylor which has been enshrined in the hearts of
his countrymen. Massachusetts, is not here.
TSome member said, she is coming hope 30,
said MIR. Tyler, and that she will bring with her
her daughter Maine. l did not believe that it
could well be thatthe voice which, in other times,
was go familiar to her ears, has been addressed
to her In vain. Connecticut is here, and she
comes, doubt NOT, in the spirit Of Roger sher-
