Last WOtds of Senator Douglas
ttt for the UniOM tI rtf

Senator Douglas and wife reached
Chicago on their return from Washing
ton on the evning of the 1st day of May,
and were met at the depot by an immense
assemblage of citizens Of all parties, who
insisted on escorting Mr.. Douglas in pro-
cession to the great Wigwam, which was
already packed with ten thousand per-
sons. Room having been made for the
admission of Mr.. Douglas, he was ad-
dressed by Thomas B.. Bryan in behalf
of Chicago, to which he responded as fol-
lows: ~
Mr. CHAIRMAN: 1 thank you for the
kind terms in which you have been
pleased to welcome me. L thank the
committee and citizens of Chicago for
this grand anu imposing reception. l
beg you to believe that viii not do YOU

magnificent ovation is personal homage
to myself. rejoice to know that it ex-
presses your devotion to the Constititu-
tion, the Union, aud the flag of our
country. [Cheers.1 au5 l-li p
Twill not conceal my qualification at the
uncontrovertiblc test this vast audience
presents-that what political differences
or party questions may have divided us,
yet You all had conviction that when
the country should be in danger, my

science is clean. have struggled long

have not only rendered those States
what was. theirs of right, but l have
gone to the very extreme OF fmagnanimity.
The return we receive is War, armies
marched upon our Capital, distractions
and dangers to our navigation, letters of
marque to invite pirates to prey upon our
commerce, a concerted movement to blot
out the United States of America from
the map of the globe. The question is,
are we to maintain the country Of our
fathers, or allow it to be sticken down

What cause, what excuse do Disunion-
lists give us for breaking up the best
Government on which the sun of heaven
ever shed its rays? They are dissatisfied
with the result of Presidential election.
Did they never get beaten before? Are
wo to resort to the sword when we got
defeated at the ballot box? / understand
it that the voice Of the people expressed
in the mode appointed by the Constitu-
tuition must command the obedience Of

NUMBER 50.

Certain capitalists of Milwaukee have
taken s650,000 to $500, 900 of the new
issue Of bonds, paying seventy per scent
in cash down, and rcimsbarsing, from
coupons, the thirty per cent that remains.
In other words, the State sells her bonds
at par, at the same time paying her in
terest several years in advance. II is now
considered that the State could not at
this time have dene better, as theamount
actually paid in will be amply sufficient for
all present needs. The bonds will be inn
mediately used to take up such Southern
securities as are now deposited with the
Bank Con troller by the still accredited
banks of the State. The whole amount
Of such securities is at present but little
over S620,000. aHss 'Aa -

GUARD AGAINST VULGAR LASoUAdE-
There is as much connection between
the words and the thoughts as there is
between the thoughts and the actions
The latter are not only the expression Of
the former, but they have power to re-
act upon the SOUL and leave the stain. of
their corruption there A young man
who allows himself to use one vul oar or
profane word has not only shown that
there is a foul spot upon his mind, but
by the Inference of that word he extends
that spot and inflames it, till, by indulg-
encc, it will pollute aud ruin the whole
soul. BE careful of your words as well
as your thoughts. If you can control
the tongue that no improper words are
pronounced by it, you will soon be able
also 10 control the mind, and save that
from corruption. You extinguish tho
fire by smothcring it, or by preventing
bad thoughts bursting Qaieie Which you
Neysr 81 a'ashamed TO speak in the pres.
