south asked CONCESSIONS but and
more How were we TO adjust the dhculties that now
threaten the f country, which threatened
the workingmen with starvation and all the horrors Of
civil war; They had met TO consult with each other and
not through the medium Of black republican liars the

the abolition press They had met 70 let the people Of
the North see that portion Of the workngmen were
opposed TO crusade or aggression upon the rights Of
the South He he speaker did not know, according 70
for this district but his declarations might be called mis-
prison Of treason treason itself However that might
be he the responsibility OF declaring that it was the
Northern States who first contemplated treason and
mtted it. (Appause) Captain Rynders proceeded to
argue from the history Of the Of 1872 that Massa
New England States, and the men who devised this

the Wide SwaSes) had picture in the Tribune office de-
pcting the horrors of war; and represented Mexican

the American flag. Then Greeley had admiration for
the stars and stripes. When the bin Of appro-
priaton to supply the armies with provisions came
into the House and went TO the Senate, Thomas
Corwn black republican Senator got in his place in
the Senate and said, sMr President If were Mexican,
l would welcome the American with bloody hands and
hospitable graves" That was the man who was in
favor Of the American flag And when this army bill
was presented in the House, one Abraham Lincoln now
the sectional President of the black republican party,
voted against the supplies for the army. We're
these black republicans the mon to follow when
they asked his hearers to shed the blood of their
brethren at the South These had borrowed
up their treason in the North try establish that
treason has been committed at the South. He then
uded to the Fremont campaign of 1856 to show that the
republicans disoyal to the Union, and remarked
that ii he talking treason they could indict him. He
affirmed that the democrat Of the North, who volua-
ecred TO make aggressons upon the constitutional rights
of the South taintedhe half republican and the
other half was not worth saving IAN individual
