New-York daily tribune., 1861-09-09
GEN. Mitchell IN CINCINNATI.

very large audience, composed mostly OF the mer-
chants and business men OF the city, collected at Snit
& Nixons Hall on Friday night to hear Gen. Mitchels
address.
In introducing his speech the General remarked that
after Mr. Lincoln had been elected President he started
on tour through the Southern States-through Ten
nessee, Mississippi, Louisiana and even as faE as
States were determined TO have what they called their
rights, or to dissolve the Uniou. Bot he found that
there was something back of all this cry for rghs in
the minds of their leaders They had determined TO
form a Southern Confederacy, and this the means
by which they hoped to succeed in their diabetes
plot to break up the old Government. They had de-
uded the people into the belief that Secession was con-
stitutional and as their rights had been taken from
them. they not only had the constitutional right,
but that they ought to secede from the Northern
States.
AS this sentiment is very strong in the South he re-
marked aud as the Southerners not cowards this
war can only end in the subugaon OF the North, or
by the wiping out Of the rebellion in the South IL
must be fought right through. But we cannot hight
without men, We have plenty OF cannon, rifes, mus
kets ammunition, and swords but neither can the can
non nor the muskets load themselves nor shoot them
selves off, we must have men TO do II, and men that
will do It with WILL al am sorry TO say" said he,
that il il too much the wish OF our men at the North
TO get great riaed cannon, with which they can stand
on four miles, and shoot in safety; and TO get rifles
with which they can shoot eight ten hundred yards
This ia not right We must use instruments that will
bring us nearer. The Southeers are not going TO let
stand at that distance ara snCOt tnen uOWn. lney
will come upon u.s. and we must be prepared TO meet
them. We must use the bayonet and drive it home.
This war must be made the most bloody for time,
that il may te settled. We must march right up TO
them Three yards is far enough of for me; and, If
necessary, reduce that 10 one.
When was called upon 70 hold conference with
Major, now General Anderson, with reference TO my
accompanying him to this part Of the country and 10
Kentucky, told him to tell my friends in Kentucky
my intentions, and II they thought that could do

they went into this miserable, cowardly neutrality,
would spit upon them, and spew them ont ofmy mouth
II they oiued in the Southern Coniederacy, would
grind them with my heel. But II they stood for the
Union, would il necessary, die for them.
He said that he would devq,e himtelf body and SOUL
to the cause The only pefgon that would ever have
divided his attention now lit4 in the grave.
After Gen. Mitchell had 6nished the Hon. q. Z.
Pugh made some remarks. He said that after Sumter
had been attacked there more room for debates
from that time there was no peace but In war. We
have begun IT, and must now stand up to II ard not
falter. We have given much money and many men,
but we must give more money and more men, Let US
give enough 10 bring TO close and not lot II last so
long as to PROSTATE whole country. Let the UNI
ted States yudicate her from tho insult that was
thrown upon ii at SUMTER and from the Nominations
that are hurled at from the States Of Europe Let
us have war that we can talk and write about-a
war tha. our posterity viii be proud Of. stood bere
once says he TO prevent this war, but e0aid ho',
and God lnows that would have done all In my
power 10 prevent it, but now, II has been iorVsu
