must 60 IN earnest-go prepared Tor action
to fight il as battle and not TO fight II
rs a play spell. We must unite rs whole
people going shoulder 10 shoulder, And
when we do go so we shall conquer. And
Why? We have the right, we have the
prestige Of government, we have the sym
patty of the disintercstcd world, we have
che moral and material elements to do it all,
and insure victory.
Rebellion has not The financial ability TO
stand long war, with all their gains from
priystcering and piracy and issuing Con-
Tolerate bonds-madc lien upon the prop
erty of people who we're never consulted as
20 their issue, and who repudate them
worth as much rs June frost, cold wolf
track, which no financicr fit TO be outside OF
fhe lunatic asylum would give shilling
peck for. They may vcx, they may harass,
they may destroy, they may commit piracy
but the reckoning is to come for all this
They will be brought TO the judgment OF
the American people-of their own people
They viii be arraigned, and who is there
wil be ready TO stand up as their defenders
IN the name of the Constitution
- tell thee Culloden, dread echoes shall ring
With blood hounds that bark for thy fugitive king
What glorious Constitution We shall have
when il finds such glorious interpreters -
How strong our institutions will be anchor
ed upon such foundaionsl The Conslitu-
tion will then literally
Live through all time extend through all extent,
Spread undivided, operate unspent
know there are some who fear the war
like power of the rebellious States. They
had great deal of power for good; but
they hare great deal less than they imag-
me, or Is generally imagined, for evil. We
are good deal slower in waking up, but
when walked up we are a good deal more
in earnest, The tone Of the rebel press is
exceedingly braggart in regard to its men
and its victories. Ii reminds me, when /
hear of their self-lauded proves, OF the
Snowman who spoke of the great capacity Of
the animal he was exhibiting: Ladies and
eenllemen,' said he, this is the Bengal Ii
ger, measuring fourteen feet from the tip OF
his nose to the tip of his tail, and fourteen
more from the tip Of his tail back to the tip
of his nose, making in all twenty-cight feet
(Laughter.) Now / think their estimates
about their forces and capacity are just
about as liberal. And they are to be look
ed at accordingly. Nevertheless, they have
great elements of mischief. And if Satan
himself had been sent on earth TO scourge
mankind, and TO cover the land with desc
Iaton, he could not have performed his
mission more successfully than by assuming
the shape Of arcbel dcmagogue, and preach
ing secession. Sound"
Now, have a clear and well-defned, and
distinct theory, of what ! would do with
know that this Government ever can be
brought back TO where il was before, in the
enjoyment Of all its relations; but believe
it can be. In population, wave succeeds
wave in generations as wave succeeds wave
upon the ocean, and the men of to-day pass
away tomorrow. | believe it can be
brought back, but not by fostering rebellion
but it is by treating il as treason, robbery
and murder. And, if this Government ev
er can be saved, it must be by summary
chastisement and overthrow of rebellion, S,
that the loyal people of the Southern State
can come forward and administer the Gov
eminent Of these States as before. VIII
is the missionary that is going with hi
peace propositions? What is he going t
say? What will he say to this party in re
bellion? II is a pretty thing TO talk abou
and for the designing to dupe the North;
is very awkward thing to reduce TO pra'
tice. II you drive out rebellion, you wi
have loyal people South as well as Norll
Then they will all do what Virginia, an
Missouri, and Maryland are trying to d.
and what Delaware and Kentucky are Dc
ing Are there any men here who wal
this Union divided? I"No."] Then
not sympathize with treason in any form
gender, number, person, or case, in any
lis ramifcaiions. Hunt it like ferocio,
monster wherever you find it. Is there an
who wishes this matter let alone to perfe
the rebellion so causelessly commenced?
iwho would be a traitor knavc,

And that is, fight for the Union, the who
