has not been introduced by us and not IN the s,gh ss
particular by any one UniOn-lOving man. IL mas been
forced upon by tratorous consPrlcyj lfty years
Of machnaiion were necessary - bIlng 1t about we
are engaged simply in a war Of self-1sfense. Great
applause We defend tho integrity Of the COnstitu'
ton; we defend The nationality ort Cnioni we de-
fend the nationality Of our mountains and our rivers,
none of which viii we permit 10 be divided. Loud
cheers We are engaged, therefore, IN ahoiy cause
as holy rs that in which any any nation can be
engagedbat Of Sighting Tor lie own liberties and the
Constitution be41eahed 10 them by their iatners'
Although 1t il not generally the case, certainly it is
not the case with Union-loying men; yet the people
ofthe South have been induced by alsehoOd 70 believe
that the North had designed % destroy their material
interests, and they have been induced falsely TO hate
the Ncrth. We must remember that we are engaged
with an enemy having a common origin with our
selves having hatred against which we have not
agains them, and that are TO meet 40 mean antag-
onst. DO not say this loT the prpose Of discourage
ment. ay il only for the purpose Of inducing you
to believe with me, that the beet way aud the lrest
way TO put end 10 this war soon, s to come mp to
the measure Of It's importance with the whole heart
and the whole strength, and III the material force OF
the country. lApplause. Many good causes have
been lOs, many good battles have not been won, be-
cause the Antagonist has been undervalued. That is
our danger; we must not run upon Il. Let every man
induce his neighbour and let that negbbOr anG mat
man induce every in public councils 10 believe
that this nation Is mp to that standard we nave Deeh
very anxious that other nations should NOT treat
them DelIgcfeUtS, JcL hb tHchl 10
[Cheers.l Let us come up to that standard Waglng
war for selfdefense; wagng u IN order TO accoul-
plish PEACE that being the only legitimate end Of war;
But n order to have peace, we must have sucn an out
pouring OF effort, such multitude OF people, that the
North will come down like avalanche upon the
South and drive those who stand IN rebellion against
where they deserve to 60, into the gun wnich
bounds their shores. Applause.I single word

grateful thanks 10 TammaAy Hall for the rebuke |

Democratic party which did not accept The liberal offer
Of another party 10 combine for the UnoD SO thot we
could be henccfOrh and forever all Republicans and
all Democrats. Cheersl Let these pesce-meet
ings be held, but give them proper !
place where they can be held. We must
have no peace-meetings until peace has been
accomplished. Cheers. IL ID leapmg before you
come to the ste TO have peace meetings now. APP
plause ii they are TO be held before that time, there
is "A snng little place the Hudson River where they
may be held with convenience; there - snug hitle
bay the shore of tie Hudson where the Adjutant-
General of the British army met Arnold in the dark
OF night and commenced the coneoction Of trea
son; that is the place for peace meetings. Loud
cheering. III that locality dOee not suit, le, them 90

Mo- as the speaker who has addressed you has said,
tratorOus; and lie who recognizes man who attends
these peaeemeetings bis iend has the simple honor
Of recognizing traitor TO biz country Great ause
One word further. There has been tone OF dlscCIT-
agement in talking about our public aairs that
calculated 20 depress effort 10 encourage the enemy
and to discourage, what Is most important OF all ihe
who have gone 10 the field TO hazard thelr hie Tor
the country. This is all wrong-aH WfOng.s l0u |
never do 60 in your private airs, never, If you
are defeated in what you conceive 70 be an honest and
a laudabe effort even seventy times teyeni you 20 to
work and try It again; That is the way with naiions
as II l. with individuals. We have holy canse; we
are precipated into hf war againat our own irends
There was not an evil which the So1Lh has I,
claimed To prevail against them. which could not
have been reiressed under the Constitution |
and according to It's forms; and II they are |
temporarily successul because Of their greater effort,
and being earlier In the field, aud preparing 50 long 10
meet all we baye do is 20 meet by corresponds
ng effort on our part and success is certain the
progress of lime. Aupause. We must not, there |
fore discourage neighbOrs, citizens, army;
should we do anything TO Encourage The Adminis-
tratIOn. Let speak plainly here have felt n "a
great while that there tendency the part Of the
public and the press 10 speak evil OF men IN high |
paces. IL may be unwelcome truth 10 you, but, |
neyen heless understand il s0 AMI l am bound 70
speak my mind frankly. The momen, man occupies !
"A public place, that very moment he ls a mark !
for tie finger Of scandal and 80 mueh Is that |
the case that many vise ana pure men |,
will not employ the meane necessary % secure such
position nor occupy IT, because hey know their mo-
lives are constantly liable 10 be msrepr.sented You

it. And now what have we seen SIN months have
elapsed and we have an army OF 2UO,Wo neni we !
have a navy which we have never srrpafsed--a navy
whichis beginning 10 make itse felt, Loud applause.
A navy IL the officers IN which are permitted 20 act
according TO their own judgment and with "a view TO
distinction, will DO what Lord Cochrane did or the
coast Of France and what Nelson did in the course of
his career. The there; their courage u un-
ouestioned their patriotism may be relied upon; and
all Iii has been created by Administration which
came into power within six months. And saw, Glory
10 such an Adminstr alton Cheer. Instead Of ind
ing fault we should honor thcu Tor u. They have
done more than most men could have done with such
feeble materials. We should @ forward and sustain
them and encouragement should have place in
