TO THE UNION MEN IN WASHING.
TON, So

All the strangers now in Washington city, who
are in favor of the Union, are requested to meet
at the Columbian Armory, near Maryland ave-
nue., this afternoon, at 8 o'clock. The present
force is too small to repel an attack upon the
capital, and it is suggested that the strangers
journing here shall spend an hour in drill each
afternoon, getting familiar with the handling of
the piece, &C., and thus be ready for any emer-
goncy. Guns for this purpose will be furnished
by the Government.
Major Hunter of the United States army, Cap
tain Stockton, of Kansas, and other distinguished
military gentlemen, have kindly volunteered their
services to drill.
None who cannot bring undoubted reference
as to their Union sentiments will be allowed to
join the ranks. Let us have one thousand men

alone. | would let them, to use the language
of politicians, stand out in the cold awhile,
and. warrant you, they will come shiveripg
back, gladly, to n Union fire.
The following is the conclusion Of this most
able and patriotic speech:
"Sr, can any man believe that in case of
dissolution of the Union, we would enjoy any.
thing like the freedom and liberty and equality
which we now enjoy under this General Gov.
ernment of ours? Could we maintain ourselves
without strong military force, kept up at an
enormous and exhuasting expense? We are
now, under the Union, and in the Union, the
freest, the most independent, and the happiest
people on earth. Dissolve the Union, and a
military despotism, the RIGHTEOUSNESS of the
camp, and ragged poverty, will be substituted in
its place.
"And now, Mr.. President, in the name Of
our illustrous dead, in the name Of all the
living. in the name Of mill ons yet unborn,
protest against this wicked effort to destroy the
tairest and freest Government on the earth.
And denounte all attempts to involve Vir.
gnia to commit her to selfmurder, as an in.
suit to all reasonable living humanity, aud a
crime against God. With the dissolution Of
this Union, Ihesitate not to say, the sun of our
liberty will have set forever"

has made the following appointments:

reasonable to hope for with troops SO unused 10

This confirms the accounts that these soldiers
