This, you know, was forecone conclusion. Moth
ing could DO satisfactory 70 them except that arms
should be- resorted 10, and the fate Of revolution
abided by. declare therefore, that the war is not
of OR organizing but 1t has been forced upon us by
% crafty enemy-an enemy resolved to do or dle 10
destroy our free Government, or perish IN the
attempt. And what is their object? Why, their
object is TO tear down this proud noble and benef
cent Government, to establish reign OF terror
anarchy aud coniiscation in the land; TO impiant
upon this soil the fideous doctrine OF the right
Of Secession, that when one State secedes another
may secede and still another, and still another, SO
that within AZ hours by the light of their reason and
the eXactness of their judgment, You may estaohsn
on this continent "a independent governments. 81

county aud every city and every village and hamlet
nay, every person who suffers from Indigestion ~
the dinner-tsble may clam the same night, an1
thus, soldiers, we shall have the confusion aIlu
disorder which will plunge into disnsy and rum
1 the best and most benevolent Government IN the
world. Now what is our object IL - am,
ply TO arrest the sway OF this fell snrt OF
| Secession. 1t is TO maintain our Government
10 establish and yindca.e law and order, without
which ueitber happiness nor prosperity can exist.
You are engaged too by the strength OF your arms
10 protect our commerce with other nations, ana
when victory crowne your devotion your country
cauee-as it assuredly will-you will be proudly
pointed at as the champions of American rights, Ne
men who have maintained their dearest principles,
and those who, from this time forward thsl 1--we

whose names shall descend with marks OF impeTish-
able hOuOr 10 the remOtest poster1ty But, soidlers,
10 accomplish all this, not merely arms are necessary
not merely men TO carry them, but that poWeriui
aud overwhelming spirit which constitutes ara
makes us men, that spirit which hits us above the
creeping things Of the earth, and brings us near tne
Deity In accomplishing his work on earth. On,
then let us not merely think that the battle is TO
the strong let us not merely depend on discipline
and order, but with that fervidnesS OF SOU when
inspired our fathers at Bunker Hill, and Saratoga
and Yorktown come forward and give effect to all
that If valuable in the name OF patriotism, and
! honor and religion.
Never no never, will you succeed until that spirit
is once more manifested and developed which actua'
ted the soldiers Of Cromwell, who, on the field,
invoked the Lord his God 10 arise. SO let IT be WITH
us. We must be at least sCne with him in spirit.
Let u.s. like Cromwell, invoke the Almighty bless
ing, and clothed with the panoply Of patriotism and
, religion, strike for our homes and our country.
Immense cheering. Let us-oh, let us-wiihout
reference TO any differences of the past, keep our eye
steadfasily on the great object TO be achieved the
nationality and independence OF this country, the
salvation of civilization from the insults and assault
! of barbaism; and them but not till then, Will you
be worthy to be recognized as distinguished portion
. Of our great American army. Long continued
, cheering from the whole regiment
Immediately after the speech of Col. Coch-
rane there was q tumultuous demand for the
! Secretary of War. Mr.. Cameron came before
. the regiment and said:
r SOLDIERS: II is too late for me TO make you 0
speech tonight, but will say that heartily ap
q prove every sentiment uttered by your noble com
b nander. Tie doctrines which he has laid down
t spprove as If they were my own words. They are
i my eentiments-sentiments which will not only lead
you to victory but which will in the end reconstruct
this our glorious Federal Constitution. 1t 10 idle TO
e talk about treating with these Rebels upon their
a own terms. We must meet them as our enemies,
treat them ~ enemies and punish them As enemies,
until they shall learn TO behave themselves Er6y
means ,chich God has placed IN our hands 1t IS our
6uty to use for the purpose Of protecting oHfseires
; am glad of the opportunity TO say here, what
